2016 marks the 50th anniversary of the Star Trek franchise - and the release of Star Trek Beyond, the 13th feature film in the series. To celebrate this big year, and ponder the deeper meanings of Trek’s first half-century, the Entertainment Geekly column will look at a different Star Trek film each week, from now till Beyond. This week: The one where Kirk meets God, and He is Us. Last week: Leonard Nimoy’s beautiful and joyful time-travel comedy. Next week: The end of an era - and the return of the great Nicholas Meyer. Come to the campfire, listen to the old story. Great space hero Kirk relaxes with funny man McCoy and funny man Spock. Spock has funny flying boots. Hero Kirk needs no such boots.

What's the worst Star Trek movie ever made? Many fans and online pundits will tell you "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier." This outing of the original Enterprise crew warped into theaters in 1989, at a time when my young Trek fannishness was at its most fervent. I saw the movie five times on the big screen, each time accompanied by a progressively smaller audience around me. For my final viewing, I was the only one inside the dark theater. I haven't seen "Star Trek V" since then. As Star Trek celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, it's time for me to rewatch the film from my now-adult perspective. Is it really as bad as everyone says it is? Remembering 'The Final Frontier' Here's what I remember:
