Anyone think First Contact was a very flawed for a ST film?

Time to break out the tape and watch that one again.


As someone else said in this thread it may be a good movie (debatable) but it's a lousy Star Trek movie.

That's pretty good. I especially like the part about the market for non-reusable warp-capable ships following WWIII.

FC was okay, but yes, it did have problems.
I didn't like the Borg Queen, I didn't like the idea of her, I didn't like how she chewed the scenery, I didn't like her slutty antics with Data ("I'm the physical manifestation of a collective of billions of minds, let's get it on!" whatever).
And to this day I cannot fathom why the Borg would be so stupid as to assimilate Earth before it has any technology of any interest to them instead of sending a larger force..

Also.. it's a minor thing, but at one point, Cochrane says he's doing what he's doing not to advance humanity but to make money.
From who? Who's paying him? What post-WW3 faction would give a damn about a pod with warp engines anyway?

I think it's Ironic that the very desire for wealth that the Feds scorn is what brought them to the stars in the first place.
