Line 10:
So far, the only films exempted from Curse are the tenth and eleventh, as 2002's ''[[Star Trek: Nemesis]]'' sucked while 2009's ''[[Star Trek (film)|Star Trek]]'' was a hit, contrary to their position in the series. It is unknown whether this anomaly means the Curse has actually been broken, or merely inverted.
 
Two commonly proposed methods to realign the curse with "reality" are using the sum of the digits as an indicator, or alternatively including the [[Affectionate Parody]] ''[[Galaxy Quest]]'' as a ''Star Trek'' movie, inserting it between 9 (''[[Star Trek: Insurrection|Insurrection]]'') and 10 (''Nemesis''), as [http://qntm.org/odd put by] [[Things of Interest|Sam Hughes]]. Another theory states that ''Nemesis'' wasn't good because it was a multiple of five, and like ''[[Star Trek V]]'', was [[DarthWiki/So Bad It's Horrible]]. This is followed by the excuse that ''[[Star Trek (film)|Star Trek]]'' doesn't follow the pattern because of the interference of [[Hand Wave|time-traveling Romulans]]—besides, it wasn't made by the same crew as the rest. A third theory says that, because of ''[[Star Trek (film)|Star Trek]]'''s departure from established canon and lack of any apparent message, it is "bad", and it (at least) follows the theory.
 
Some have also taken to referring the [[Continuity Reboot|reboot]] film as "''Star Trek 0''," thus placing it in an arguably even spot.
