I thoroughly enjoyed it and don't often get a lot of complaints but I'd be hard pressed to say best when First Contact exists

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

The fact that we never heard of the Remans again (I don't think they even get a Lower Decks shout-out, do they)? I think maybe we should leave Nemesis behind and pretend it never happened.
I mean the Remans weren't even brought up when Romulus was destroyed.
Edit: They do get a shout-out on LD
Distrust between Remans and Romulans was still prevalent in 2380, when a Romulan guard on Romulus commented to a colleague that he hated Remans, with his colleague commenting Remans were "the worst". (LD: "Veritas")
https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Reman
Still, best let sleeping dogs lie.
Remans are seen in Enterprise as well, as a slave/conscript caste. They are not explicitly mentioned, just seen in the background.
Not even talking about them in Picard is just one more sin on a very long list.
Dr Crusher mentioned the Remans trying to assassinate Picard in one episode.
Outside of miscasting Clone Picard, I actually kind of liked Nemesis. I know I liked it more than Generations, albeit I’m newer to Trek and I’m unsure what sort of blasphemy I’m speaking there….
Hard disagree. Generations is not the strongest TNG movie, but it definitely feels more like Trek than Nemesis. Nemesis is the worst of the TNG movies and full of plot holes. Every time I watch Nemesis I feel like the thin veneer of a plot goes out the window when Shinzon decides to drop the ruse and it becomes an excuse for a big space battle.
You're not, that's a pretty level-headed take for anyone to have.
The hot-take would be that Generations is the best TNG movie because we get to see Kirk die.
...Kirk was the worst captain of the Enterprise.
and some people like tapioca pudding. It's gross, but here we are.
Isn't that just vanilla pudding with little squishy starch balls?
Yup, fish eyes in pulverized nila wafer and plastic.
Delicious.
Not my favorite TNG movie, but my favorite space combat in Star Trek outside of Deep Space Nine.
Kicking the Viceroy into a bottomless pit is Star Trek V-grade hilarity, but I head-canon it as him being kicked into space through the open bomb-bay doors on the bottom of the ship.
Personally I enjoy the battle in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country more than the final showdown in Nemesis.
Data dies
Unrelated, I love her movie and wish more people appreciated it for the gem it is.
Bee movie?
Yes! I should have specified....
So I've never seen it, and I'm pretty sure I've only seen maybe a tiny clip, mostly memes. Just based on the vibes of this meme, is the man shown voiced by Patrick Warburton?
Yes he is, and he gets cucked by Jerry Seinfeld, who plays a bee. It's a weird movie, man.
It’s a weird movie, man.
Now, that's something everybody can agree on.
