Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
Verto: ovbiously on some strong vulcan crack, retining only enough sanity to rate TOS at the top.
GePap: Right on the money as usual, though I personaly think TNG and TOS are excelent "utopian" Trek if thats what you like. DS9 is loved/hated for being dystopian trek and gets extra points for this boldness.
Geronimo: were not discusing the worst sit-coms ever (if we had you might argualy be correct)
DRoseDARs & Edan: I found that episode terrible for its horendisly stupid chariturization of evolution as a processed "destined" to turn us into Fish. Anyone with the first shred of understanding of evolution knows its an undirected goal-less process.
Asher: also off his rocker
Lonestar's Original question:
Movie: didn't see DOOM so as much as I am shure it sucked (that might be why I didn't see it). I must go with Nemisis
TV: lets just lump Voyager and Enterprise into a "Terrible Post DS9/First Contact Trek" and hope that at some past/future point this segment of the time space continum can be riped from our universe and sealed away in some shadow zone ware it will never harm another living thing.
Book: Frank Herbert is god and All Dune Books by him are above reproatch. His incompetent moching son who wrote the Dune Prequals though is a mere mortal. His house Atraties was one of the few sci-fi books I was ever unable to finish it was so bad. The first third of the book consisted of atleast NINE totaly non interacting sub-plots being bounced between. Each bounce being about 10 pages inwhich absolutly nothing happens, it was nausea inducing.

Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators, the creator seeks - those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick Nietzsche
For Star Trek-Series (and relatives):
Most of the Episodes where alien societies possess high tech, but are formed exactly like a mirror image of an ancient earth society(especially most of the wild west episodes you can find sometimes within the series).
Movies:
Star Trek X: Nemesis
The Time Machine (2001)
Planet of the apes (2001)
The Postman
Tamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve." Tamsin (Lost Girl): "He has fallen in battle and I must take him to the Einherjar in Valhalla"
Duh. Plan Nine From Outer Space by Ed Wood. When the ET try to awaken the dead to conquer the Earth and manage to raise three of them before their flying saucers get burnt above a Hollywood model.

Talk all you want about ST:Enterprize or VOY sucking... at least they have/had decent FX...
Lost in Space on the other hand, is pure crap.
"Danger, Will Robinson! Danger!"
What udder drivel.
Hell, for that matter, throw the LiS movie on the crap Sci-Fi list as well... (Although it did have a cool robot and that kick ass armor (but no bug spray ))
