One guy's Star Trek movie plan...
When it was announced that III and IV (?) would be re-issued using previous transfers, I blew off waiting for SEs and just bought used copies of both flicks for less than $10 each...no regrets here.
Knowing that V and VI blew hard, I also bought used copies as well (neither of these flicks is worth a $20 SE, IMHO). Both movies have their moments, but also more problems than worth mentioning. VI is considered by many to be a good movie, but doesn't it seem strange that all the groups that cannot trust each other and hate each other have no problems working together to destroy the peace treaty? Sounds more like the plot of the Star Trek cartoon episode...
Previous transfers of V and VI are non-anamorphic, but I suspect many (like my self) are adding these weak titles to their collection just for completion sake at the cheapest possible price
I don't buy into the idea of 'odd/even' Trek movies with regard to quality. IMHO, the series got progressively more lame from I-VI (more or less in that order).
I am going to wait for the reissue of VII, however, where the new cast gave the movies series a needed shot in the arm.
