Ah hell I hate when threads like this come up. I can never rank them from best to worst. I am one of those rare people that likes ALL the Star Trek scores.

Star Trek is my favorite franchise and I love all the scores. I would rather listen to one of these scores than anything else, but for the sake of argument I ranked them.

I put Voyage Home above Star Trek for the main titles alone. I loved those even before I became fanatical about film music.

I'm not familiar enough with the others to include them.

I like all of those scores to one extent or another; it's a damn solid franchise for scores.

I won't bother ranking these scores. I usually listen to them in sequence, but I don't feel compelled to just cut and paste TMP at the top of the list.

Very tough choices in there, especially around the middle with a number of good-but-not-great scores.

Insurrection & First Contact have to be heard in their complete forms, then they become great.

Truer words have never been spoken. A lot of great material was left off both OST's, particularly for Nemesis. It took me the complete score for Nemesis to really get into it.

First Contact, yes. Nothing can make Insurrection great. Nemesis is also very good complete.

I've heard First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis in their expanded/"complete" form. Ranked 'em based on that. Just my Humble Opinion of course.

I can listen to any Star Trek score and enjoy it greatly. Ranking them is a waste of time, because it implies that some are inferior to the others, and that's silly because I enjoy them all. Except IV and Generations, they are lesser scores. ST 2009 hasn't really sunk in yet. It's got a nice main theme and some good moments, but there are other moments that make me think Davey Jones' ship is going to emerge from beneath the waves.

Wow, I'm noticing that most of you rate Star Trek V as the third best. I'm going to have to get that one out and listen to it (I bought it used, and never gave it a listen).

When i think about it, 'Insurrection', slight as it may be, is the most varied of the later Goldsmith scores, while i find 'First Contact' too directionless. 'Nemesis' is the most focused, but suffers from being a bit too arch (it has some great action cues and the ethereal 'Repairs').

Apart from the 'Khan' score, which sadly sounds like shit, 'Star Trek V' is my secret favourite after the first one. It's brash, cartoony, epic - all in one and has the best credt sequence.

Karol - who watched VI yesterday a liked it a lot.

Star Trek VI is a very good film, definitely was a good way to end the movies for the Original Series crew.

I just listened to Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. It's really good! It sounds a bit like the music of the original series. Really short, though. Is there a lot of unreleased music?

This is not going to be popular....

1: III - Search for Spock

2: II - Wrath of Khan

3: VI - Undiscovered Country

4: IX - Insurrection

5: VIII - First Contact

6: X - Nemesis

7: IV - The Voyage Home

8: I - The Motion Picture

9: V - The Final Frontier

10: VII - Generations

11: Star Trek

Worth perhaps me pointing out that for any other movie Giacchino's effort would have been a blast, but for me it just wasn't Star Trek. Good CD though.

Kudos to everyone who is ranking VI: The Undiscovered Country pretty high on the list.

I love "Sign Off" and the whole Overture.
