"Vadic forces Picard to make an impossible choice: deliver what he can never give… or watch his crew perish. Their only salvation lies in the mind of an old friend and old foe." - TrekMovie.com

 
I think the title is misleading. Terry Matalas probably never liked that Picard surrendered in "Encounter at Farpoint", setting off TOS Only Fans for years to come. So he'll have Picard not surrender. It's possible this is an overcorrection. Picard is so determined not to surrender that someone dies. Vadic has her moment of, "And now to show that my intentions are sincere, I shall kill one of the prisoners." Keeps with the TOS Movie theme and adds a twist with Picard not surrendering coming with a price... just not the price of Jack. I don't think they'll kill him like they killed David. It'll be someone else. But it will serve as another critique of the TNG Movies. Picard can't act like Rambo Picard and think it'll be consequence-free.

Let's see how much of this happens, or it any of it happens.
 
Hopefully nobody posts an untagged massive spoiler pic Five Minutes before the show even starts for 99% of us.
Agreed. Spoilers shouldn't be allowed until 1 hour after the show drops. If someone wanders into the thread after that, that's their own fault.
 
"A great, big, threatening (red) button which must not be pressed under any circumstances, am I right?"

Obviously the only way to avoid spoilers is to stay out of the thread marked "Spoliers". Coming into a spoiler thread before having watched the episode and getting spoiled, that's your own fault.
 
Hell, just stay out of the Picard forum altogether if you're on Trek BBS after the new episode is released and haven't for some reason seen it yet and are that bothered by spoilers.

But I understand it's much easier and far more fun to play the blame game.
 
The pic dropped right in the middle of the conversation about whether the episode had been uploaded yet, which is also what these threads are used for.
Just a little bit of consideration with it would have been nice.

I'm not saying the person was wrong for posting it, I'm simply pointing out that at that particular point, tagging it would have been the considerate thing to do.

And with that, I'm done, I've said my piece.

Surrender! Surrender I say! Say Uncle Lore! It's the only way to survive. It's backed by exhaustive research of Data.
 
Ooh, what will the name be?
Hopefully not Datalore.
Info?
Query?
Maybe just Soong?

What is frustrating is that "Adam" was already used last season by the Spinercore villian.

"Adam" would be the perfect name for Datalore as a new person.

However, my guess is its just gonna be Data.

If the idea that this is going to be a completely new being with all of Data, Lore, Lal, B4 and Soong’s memories and personalities, I really hope not. I’d like something new since we’ve already killed Data off. Twice.

But you’re probably right.
