The Final Frontier and Nemesis are the two Star Trek movies that I have no desire to see ever again. TMP has its issues, but there's more about it that I like than that I don't like. TVH I'm not wild about, but I don't have any great dislike of it.
I didn't bother pick up the current set. I figured it was likely that Paramount will, at some point, release SteelBooks, either individually or in sets, as they've done with the Indiana Jones films. If so, I'd be more inclined to just pick up the individual films that I want, and ignore the ones...
