Star Trek: Nemesis

- Killing some Romulans
- Picard's kind of dumb in this movie
- Remember how Picard's family was killed in a fire?
- I also can't overestimate the threat of Theloran radiation
- I swear they made this up as they went
- I wonder what Jonathan Frakes is up to
- Sometimes I can't tell the difference between Jonathan Rhys Myers and Tom Hardy
- Even the music in this is bad
- I have always wanted a phaser rifle
- Brent Spiner runs funny
- The space passing by the windows of the conference room looks just as fake as TNG TV show
- It's so convenient when someone can cloak and fire while cloaked
- Why does everyone always need to be told what to do when shit does wrong?
- Sad to think that's the last time to see Jean Luc's bridge blow up
- The bad guy has an extra special weapon - how original!
- Remember the good ol' days when we actually needed a transporter pad?
- Since when did hitting someone in the face with a phaser rifle snap it in half?
- Data's last moment and he says "goodbye" then boom? Ha!
- Looking up Stuart Baird on imdb and I see we have him to blame for this abomination as well as 1996 "Executive Decision" but he was the editor on "Casino Royale"

To each point:
- Yep.
- Dumber than in any other ST movie, but he's been even dumber in some TNG episodes.
- I forgot about that.
- Probably just rocking an awesome beard.
- They're secretly the same person.
- Which is really unique among ST movies.
- Would you set it to kill?
- Um, yeah, he's an android.
- Special effects were never really an ST high point. They probably just figured "why waste money on them in this movie when Trekkies will love it anyways?""
- Firing while cloaked is bullshit.
- So there's dialogue, I guess.
- Makes me cry *sniff*
- Star Trek has always embraced the video game mentality of "end bosses"
- The presence of the transporter room in modern ST ships doesn't make a whole lot of sense in light of it's now-diminished role.
- They had those cheap Chinese phaser rifles.
- Ha!
- You can buy Executive Decision at the Ellensburg 7-11 for $4.99

That was a great review, BTW. I enjoyed it.
