Part one of my Star Trek Nemesis review/analysis. I guess this is more of a retrospective look back on the features and why they didn’t work too well. I delve into some pointless details and swear a lot. On the whole I thought Nemesis was a slickly made movie. I liked the Remens look a lot. and the lighting was really nice, the visual fx much better since insurrection. This movie felt more authentic and more well made, but at the same time it felt rehashed, and tired. That’s the theme here. Even though Picard has a fresh copy of himself, the movie suffers from a lack of fresh ideas. Its another villain/revenge/doomsday device/picard and bad guy face off/thing explodes movie. It was always a shame to me we never saw a best of both worlds type movie or yesterday’s enterprise or chain of command, or heck even time’s arrow. The show had more latitude to experiment with stories. Because of the expensive risky nature of a feature film, they always stuck with the big dangerous bad guy/big ship/revenge/space battle/something big blows up plot to make it safer for general audiences. It was that catch 22 that I find fascinating, because the exact kind of movies they wanted to make don’t quite gel with the TNG cast. Had they kept the Enterprise D, kept some of the show writers to write larger feature scripts I think we’d have some kick ass TNG films. The sad truth is that no one took a risk. From feeling like that had to include the original cast (part of) in Generations (for box …

They’re a kind of green transparent metal alloy, they reverberate sound much better than traditional cymbals :p

There’s a line in the novelization mentioning Troi’s mother is on Betazed, so I think Majel was too sick. One of the few things they got right about this movie…
gunsmithbasic says
it almost seemed like they were preparing for a Search for Spock type movie since maybe Data’s mind could be uploaded into that B4 droid, who doesn’t have much of a mind anyways. Data does appear in the future doesn’t he?- as a professor or something

You know, I don’t ever remember seeing this movie previews on TV or in the movies…I thought it was just some fan movie originally that you see on the internet every now and then

@SiriusLumino What the hell? Is that racist, or what the f*ck? I mean, what does that even mean? And worse yet, if it is racist, the fact that it’s highest rated and on trek-adjacent video means that this is a sad day indeed, for humanity.

@heiligertaucher It´s called “The Gonk” a soundtrack from the original “Dawn of the dead” movie. You can find different versions of it here on youtube. The version RLM is using is the “Herbert Chapell Kid Koala Mash up”.

@ShadowBj84 Recognizing THE GONK at all sufficiently proves one’s nerd-cred… You’ve just taken it too far! ;)

@SuperChadWarden What is “racist” – according to you, anyway, since everybody seems to have their own definition – and why should I care?
Ti1301 says
That’s not a trumpet. It’s a trombone……
SuperChadWarden says
@SiriusLumino Racism is racism, guy. There’s no two ways about it. It’s when you treat people differently based on skin-colour, birthplace, or nationality. Your comment up there seemed to be teeming with the stuff and while it isn’t my place to tell you what to do (nor do I have any desire to), I did remark that this was a sad commentary on our people. Star Trek is all about humanity’s potential for tolerance and understanding and an attitude like that doesn’t quite cut it.
