''Star Trek Generations'' is a 1994 American science fiction film released by Paramount Pictures. ''Generations'' is the seventh feature film based on ''Star Trek'', and is the first film in the series to star the cast of the television series ''Star Trek: The Next Generation''. Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the ''USS Enterprise-D'' teams up with his predecessor Captain James T. Kirk to stop a villain from destroying a planet. Parts of the film were shot at the Valley of Fire State Park near Overton, Nevada; Paramount Studios; and Lone Pine, California. While the film received mixed reviews from critics, it performed well at the box office. ==Plot== In the year 2293, retired Captain James T. Kirk, Montgomery Scott, and Pavel Chekov attend the maiden voyage of the Federation starship USS ''Enterprise''-B, under the command of the unseasoned Capt. John Harriman. During the voyage, ''Enterprise'' is pressed into a rescue mission to save two El-Aurian ships from a strange energy ribbon. ''Enterprise'' is able to save some of the refugees before their ships are destroyed, but the starship becomes trapped in the ribbon. Kirk goes to deflector control to alter the deflector dish, allowing ''Enterprise'' to escape, but the trailing end of the ribbon rakes across ''Enterprise''s hull, exposing the section Kirk is in to space; he is presumed dead. In 2371, ''Enterprise'' Captain Jean-Luc Picard learns from a transmission that his brother's family died in a fire, filling him with regret that his family line will end with him. Meanwhile, the crew of the USS ''Enterprise''-D receive a distress call from an observatory in orbit of the star Amargosa. They find everyone dead, save the El-Aurian Dr. Tolian Soran. The android Data and engineer Geordi La Forge discover a compound called trilithium in a hidden room of the observatory. Soran appears, knocks La Forge unconscious, and launches a trilithium solar probe at Amargosa. The probe causes the star to implode, sending a shock wave toward the observatory. Soran and La Forge are transported away by a Klingon Bird of Prey belonging to the treacherous Duras sisters, who had stolen the trilithium from Romulans for Soran. Data is rescued just before the station is destroyed by the shock wave. Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg), ''Enterprise''s bartender, tells Picard more about Soran; they were among the El-Aurians rescued by the ''Enterprise''-B in 2293. Guinan explains that Soran is obsessed with reentering the "Nexus", an extradimensional realm which allows those who enter to experience their pasts over again, whenever and however they choose, to ultimate and unending ecstasy. Picard and Data determine that Soran, unable to fly a ship into the ribbon due to the uncertainty that the ship will survive long enough to ensure his success, is instead altering the path of the ribbon by destroying stars, and that he will attempt to re-enter the Nexus on Veridian III by destroying its sun—and, by extension, a heavily populated planet in the system. Upon entering the Veridian system, ''Enterprise'' makes contact with the Duras Bird of Prey. Picard offers himself to the sisters in exchange for La Forge, but insists that he be transported to Soran's location first. La Forge is returned to ''Enterprise'', but he inadvertently reveals ''Enterprise''s shield frequency, allowing the Duras sisters to inflict crippling damage on ''Enterprise''. ''Enterprise'' destroys the Bird of Prey, but sustains critical damage that causes a warp core breach. Commander William Riker orders an evacuation to the saucer section of the ship and separates from the star drive, but the shock wave from the star drive's destruction knocks the saucer out of control, and it crash-lands on Veridian III. Picard fails to talk Soran out of his plan and is too late to stop him from launching his missile. The collapse of the Veridian star alters the course of the Nexus ribbon as predicted, and it sweeps Picard and Soran away while the shock wave from the star obliterates everything in the system, including ''Enterprise''. In the Nexus, Picard finds himself surrounded by the "family he never had", including a wife and children, but he realizes it is an illusion. He is confronted by an "echo" of Guinan. After being told that he may leave whenever he chooses and go wherever and ''whenever'' he wishes, "Echo" Guinan sends him to meet Kirk, also safe in the Nexus. Though Kirk is at first reluctant to leave, Picard convinces Kirk to return to Picard's present and stop Soran. Leaving the Nexus, the two arrive on Veridian III minutes before Soran launches the missile. Kirk distracts Soran long enough for Picard to lock the missile in place, causing it to explode on the launchpad and kill Soran. Kirk is fatally injured by a fall during the encounter; as he dies, Picard assures him that he "made a difference." Picard buries Kirk before a shuttle arrives to transport him to the wreckage of the ''Enterprise'' saucer. Three starships enter orbit to retrieve the unsalvageable ''Enterprises survivors. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Star Trek Generations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
