Sooooo, would Sisko have had a role in ST: Nemesis
- Thread starter Photon
- Start date
God, I hope not. 
I think the Sisko would have laughed the Nemesis off the screen along with his whole "race bred for war", and took the whole movie watching audience with him.
The Sisko would have realized right off the bat that the Nemesis' "race bred for war" was a very laughably pale imitation of the Jem'Hadar (Jemmies who of course, are the real race bred for war), many of who's butts the Sisko has personally kicked.
Nemesis would have been over in 5 minutes if the Sisko was on the bridge.

Doubt it. They wanted Seven for the role that went to Janeway. Aside from Worf, here are the Niners who almost made it and when:
Sisko was to have a cameo in First Contact; Quark was to have a cameo in Insurrection, O'Brien was to feature in the IMAX movie.
But then the suits suddenly realised these were characters from DS9, and scuppered the scenes immediately - and even trashed the IMAX project to prevent any Niners making it to the big screen.
I made the last paragraph up. But honestly. VOY got both the Doc and Janeway, while DS9 was conspicuous in its absence on the big screen.

Which is quite fine with alot of us.
With the exception of First Contact, the TNG movies sucked anyway. Why would we want our characters sullied in a film that sucked?
No...those TNG films sucked all on their own, with no help from DS9.
I think Quark was going to show up at the very end with some scheme to make money off of the rejuvenating effects of the rings around the planet.

Be that as it may (and it is so); the Doctor's cameo was one of the highlights of First Contact. A brief Quark beat would have improved Insurrection, frankly, a distraction from a lackluster main plot by reminding us of a well-liked character.
And O'Brien's always cool. The IMAX movie might well have been fun. Sisko... eh. I think it would have impeded the narrative flow, he was to appear near the beginning.
^ Well, I think pretty much the opposite.
Nemesis was so full of large, gaping plot holes that you could navigate a starship through 'em.
Insurrection may have had less cool explosions...but at least the plot made sense, and the characters had some real motivation, as opposed to manufactured pointless motivation. I mean, it was still pretty boring...but at least it was cohesively boring.

The short answer is Quark's scene didn't make a hell of a lot of sense plot wise, he just kind of shows up for poorly defined reasons.
You know, like most of Insurrection's plot. That film was better than Nemesis, however, because the TNG crew were still recognisable as themselves. I can see Picard giving an Admiral a moral tongue lashing. I can't see him screwing around on a dune buggy.
