Personally, I could argue that the money spent making
"Star Trek"
 movies, TV shows and action figures could have been better spent, but
 I'm not about to start a discussion like that on this list, and I
 certainly respect the opinion of Trek fans.  (Except people who like
 ST:TMP, that's just unforgivable.) 
Actually, I liked it after Robert Wise cut out a lot of the fat. The
director's cut is much more liveable than the original theatrical release.
