Watched Trek V last night. I know a lot of Trekkerians look down on this film, and I understand why, but I really like it. It is like an extended TOS episode, and knowing that 3/4 of the way through filming Paramount took away about 6 million dollars of FX budget, forcing Shatner (directing) to find work-arounds, and use staging and lighting to better effect. The sequence when Kirk faces Sybok and asserts that Kirk NEEDS his pain, that it is what makes him who he is, is very fucking cool.
