HOLIDAY GUIDE TO STAR TREK: CHRISTMAS

...continuing on...

THE JIMSMASH HOLIDAY GUIDE
TO STAR TREK MOVIES

-(post #2 in a 7-post series)-

HOLIDAY: CHRISTMAS

TREK FLICK: STAR TREK V: THE FINAL FRONTIER
WHY?:
This movie is horrible... but also awesome in its own right... it's essentially 'The Star Trek Holiday Special' (ala the Star Wars Holiday Special). The acting, the plot... All it needed was 'special guest stars'. If Christopher Lloyd was in it (instead of Part III) it would have been perfect.

"And guest starring as Commander Kruge -
Christopher Lloyd!!"
[applause].

They actually leave the movie on a sing-a-long! Just replace "Row Your Boat" with "The 12 Days of Christmas" including the whole crew. Just Imagine: Christmas decorations everywhere, snuggled up on the couch, egg nog, fire burning... "And tonight a CBS Christmas Special..."

Replace God with Santa Claus, and you knock it out of the park.

"What does SANTA.... Need......with-a-star-ship?"
