Along with that damned room where Picard and Alfre Woodard hang out, Mr. Plinkett also spent several minutes devoted to the set dressing in Engineering.  Not so much on the plot, writing, direction, or performances (Picard excepted).

Yeah, Willy Pete is right.  I think fans would have reacted to it as a slap in the face, like the artifact in Generations.  Not that it matters, anyway, as Tom Riker is…  otherwise engaged at present.

I'm reloading every few seconds, waiting for that sweet, sweet Frakes action.

You should really give more love to Matriarch Benezia.  And she should have been given more to do.

Also, the callback to the scene in the Enterprise episode 'In a Mirror, Darkly' was great.

When I watched Insurrection in the theaters, I kind of blinked at the end, thinking to myself 'Is that it?  Was that even a movie?'

They did a considerably truncated version of the sequence for Star Trek II.  While the sequence in TMP may have been great to see in 1979, it sure as hell hasn't aged well.  I like looking at models as much as the next guy, but I can't say they hold my interest for hours at a time.

They might not get drunk, but they do get high.

Nah, that criticism is cheap.  It's a TNG movie, not a DS9 movie.  It does require some suspension of disbelief not to see the DS9 crew there, but well within the movie rulebook.

I have mixed feelings about the Borg Queen, but it pissed me off when Picard said 'I remember you'.  Retconning her into 'The Best of Both Worlds' didn't make any sense.  First, she didn't appear at all in the episodes in question, and second she would have blown up with the rest of the cube at the end of 'Best'.  You…

No love for the Ethan Phillips cameo?

I agree.  Final Frontier is so goofy that it's entertainingly bad.  I can't think of the question 'Why does God need a starship?' without chuckling.  Nemesis is tired, sad, and depressing.  It literally hurts to watch that garbage.  It also makes a major space battle boring, and…

To make money.

I think that Plinkett's review of First Contact relied too heavily on nitpicking.  I don't think he really hit his stride until The Phantom Menace.  That review was unmitigated genius.

Particularly after World War III, you can expect your basic Mountain Town to be relatively free of jetpacks and transport tubes.

When are you going to give the ampersand its day in the sun???

I think Ezri Dax would also count.

That does help.  There's not much that can be said to redeem Nemesis.  Heck, I remember looking forward to a movie about Romulans.  I remember looking at the postor depicting the Romulan raptor.  I should have read the fine print about Romulans not actually appearing in this movie.

This was as inevitable as the tides, but welcome nonetheless.

'Odd' isn't the word I'd use.  Well, at least Gary Seven saved us from the Orbital Nuclear Platform.
