60 of 233 · most liked firstStar Trek IV: The Voyage Home was released on this day (Nov 28) in 1986. The film had originally been planned for release in mid-December. The studio believed this would allow it to maximize earnings because the film would be in theaters during the Christmas holiday.

I loved the movie but the set up was bewildering: Why are they on a Klingon ship? Why is the Federation mad at them? Spock died?! But he's still here anyway?? What had those guys been DOING???

positive · AI labelView post →Poster art by Gareth Williams for Star Trek IV The Voyage Home 1986. Wish they’d make a Star Trek movie like this again. No mega-bad guy sucking up all the screen time. Not much violence, just lots of laughs and a rollicking fun adventure. #startrek
positive · AI labelView post →Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home is an absolute bat shit film and I love it dearly.
positive · AI labelView post →My mother is the biggest Star Trek fan. We grew up watching every episode of every series, every movie. I think my favorite was Star Trek IV, when you were piloting a Huey. My brothers both became military pilots. One is an Apache pilot. Mom's favorite was Star Trek II.

It enjoyed a large number of sourcebooks based on the OG series and the films such as Star Trek IV letting fans dice roll their way through their own adventures!

(I did not own a Macintosh computer at the time. I bought my first Mac a couple of months after I finished on the film, using money I'd made on the film.)
