Star Trek: The Motion Picture (7 December 1979): Wikipedia-link.
Commentary: I appreciate T.M.P. much more as an adult than I did as a teenager in the Golden Age of Star Trek in the Nineties. It helps that I watched "The Director's Edition," released in 2001. The tone is majestic, which includes the slow-moving visual effects shots of the refit Enterprise, the revised Klingon battlecruisers, & the V'Ger cloud & spacecraft. All of this is very apropos for a major motion picture, & helps to differentiate T.M.P. from the T.O.S. episode, "The Changeling" (season two, episode three), to which its plot is similar.
