Den of Geek review of Season 3

I guess that's the Titan display, but why are parts blue?

Any other new pictures in the magazine?
The Titan models are all gold plated. What you’re seeing is a reflection of display screens colors from across the room.
 
Whereas with Nemesis in 2002, the writing was on the wall, so it did look like The End. And for 20 years, it was. We didn't expect to see them again, until Picard came along. So this is a chance to right the wrong that was NEM.

Things happen fast. You don't always get time to mourn.

I thought Nemesis was more true-to-life. Death doesn't always leave a ton of remains

Sounds good. I love, love, love ST: Picard, at this point just having rewatched Season 2, I'm actually a little sad that they're going forward without many of the 'new' characters that I've come to appreciate. But pretty much all the things said here make me excited for season 3. I hope they'll manage to make this both a satisfying sendoff for TNG AND for the Picard series proper.
 
Personally, I treat S1 and 2 as distinct, almost like films in a way. Do they inform the next? Eh, kind of. But, they are very much standalone in my attitude towards them. So, if I regard S1 well, while S2 lesser, S3 is completely new to me because it has that standalone feel.

So, for me, no; S3 lives or dies by its own merits, and not by anything else.

I 100 percent agree with this. To me, the show Picard feels like 3 distinct miniseries featuring Picard.
 
I liked Seasons 1 and 2 for the most part and I assume I will like Season 3. At a guess, Worf is now a pacifist because of something that happened to or with Alexander. They seem to be pushing the next generation angle.

That's not the main reason why I don't like NEM. It's one of the things, but not the only thing. The action is so over-long that I start to tune it out. NEM actually is what some people accuse New Trek of being. Shinzon makes for a shit villain. They could've done way more with a Clone Picard than they did. The look of the film: Early-2000s mid-budget CGI doesn't look good at all. Picard feels too much like a Movie Action Hero instead of just enough. B-4 is too goofy.

Cut the action sequences in half, add the character stuff they cut out back in (I've seen the deleted scenes they've made available), and that would make the film a lot better. They need to do with Nemesis what Sylvester Stallone did with Rocky IV recently and create a new cut of it.

To me, it's like this: TOS the TV Series ended with "Turnabout Intruder" while TOS the Movie Series ended with TUC. TNG had it the other way around, quality-wise. "All Good Things" is like TUC and Nemesis is like "Turnabout Intruder". Who wants to end on something like "Turnabout Intruder"? One of the things I like about Picard is that it's turned Nemesis into Just Another Entry instead of The Final Entry.

My Final Shot: Captain Seven sitting in her chair aboard the Titan (with Raffi as her XO sitting beside her).

She issues the command, "Ms. LaForge ... ENGAGE!"

Titan jumps to warp.

FADE OUT

End Credits
 
I have a feeling the final shot will be of Picard, as the show is still about him.

But there could still be a shot similar to the above before that.

Either one would be better than ending it with Sisko.

It will depend on how blatantly P+ wants to show a passing of the baton. If they've more or less locked in a Seven spinoff, then maybe. But yeah, my guess is that we get something like Kirk's "second star to the right" from either Picard or Riker.

That is my thinking as well. Extremely open ended, wide shot of the whole crew on the bridge of the USS-Whatever (probably Enterprise...:brickwall:) and pan outside the ship, go to warp. Credits.
 
I hope that Patrick Stewart got to choose what his final scene was, that would be cool as long as he didn’t choose something stupid like making it all a dream. Picard might even end up retiring with Q somewhere in another plane of existence? But more likely is that he’ll probably just end up sat back in his vineyard supping on his finest vintage Pinot Grigio if they wanted an easy ‘bookend’ exit… :D

If there's to be a Seven spinoff, it'll come regardless of what the final scene in Picard is.

The point is whether or not P+ wants to telegraph it. Giving Seven the final scene pretty much shouts, "Yes, she's helming the next series." (Assuming they hold off announcing until the actual series finale.)

They have to hold off the announcement so that they don’t spoil some of the ending of Picard season 3… probably. Also the Networks and Producers probably have not made any final decisions as of yet in regards to potential spin-offs. :shrug:
Obviously the Enterprise F is in Picard season 3, this ship will have a Captain. If we know through the announcement of a spin-off that Seven will become the Captain of the Enterprise then we know that its current Captain is not going to last past season 3 of Picard. That could potentially be a *major* spoiler.
