That’s it. Saw it last night at a preview. Wasn’t bad. Any questions about it? ---

Just one. Is it really the “last” TNG film or was it merely the “beginning of the their final journey” thereby implying at least one sequel? A simple answer sans explanation will do. 😉 ---

The way it ends, I would fully expect a sequel. Unless it flops at the box office. I mean, it’s no _Generations,_ but, thankfully, it’s no _Insurrection,_ either. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by toadspittle \* > \*\*Unless it flops at the box office. I mean, it’s no _Generations,_ but, thankfully, it’s no _Insurrection,_ either. \*\* Funny, I actually liked _Generations_ far \*_less_ than _Insurrection_… and I didn’t like _Insurrection_ much. _First Contact_ was the best STNG movie in my book. So, my question is this: is _Nemesis_ as action-oriented as the trailers make it out to be? The trailers I’ve seen seem to be selling it as a rock-em, sock-em action film. Is it really like that? ---

Does this Remus thing make sense or add anything to the Trek universe or is it just a cheap add on? ---

Spock was left on Romulus trying to get them to make nice. Is e mentioned? ---

Who is Troi screwing in this movie? It kinda looks like Captain Picard in the commercials, but I don’t even want to go there. ---

Is it really like that? As much as _any_ Trek film is. There do some pretty excellent stuff with the space battles in this one. > [@](#): > > Does this Remus thing make sense or add anything to the Trek universe or is it just a cheap add on? Cheap add-on. The Remans will be forgotten immediately after this film. But the whole thing does have significant impact on Romulan-Federation relations. > [@](#): > > Spock was left on Romulus trying to get them to make nice. > Is e mentioned? Nope. > [@](#): > > Who is Troi screwing in this movie? Riker. It’s a scene I really didn’t need to see. ---

Ebert works for the Chicago Sun Times. That’s why he did a spot on Early Edition. I love figuring things out five years later. Soon I will tell you who shot JR. 🙂 ---
