There's an appeal to the Borg?
Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x10 - "The Last Generation"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
the Borg on enterprise were scary for the first time in a long time. And for the last so far.
Found online:
"On top of being a damn good episode, 'Regeneration' actually fills in a few gaps that those same Continuity Nerds conveniently forget (pr actively ignore): Why were the Borg assimilating colonies in the Neutral Zone in TNG's Season 1 finale? They finally got the message from 'Regeneration' and came to poke around. How did the Hansens know so much about the Borg? Maybe they got access to some buried data from Archer's run-in and combined it with stuff from El-Aurian refugees. Why did Q actually launch the Enterprise-D into the path of a Borg cube? He already knew about all this, and wanted to stack the deck a bit in humanity's favor. Maybe. And as to how nobody else in Starfleet knew about any of this? Either Archer's report got lost, or Section 31 buried it somewhere."

Was there any evidence they were? We know colonies on both sides of the zone were going missing. Nothing on screen ever said it was the Borg.

No, but the production team intended for it to the Borg.
we didn’t see them do it, but Guinan said it was their modus operandi.
Also, it would be a huge coincidence if in BobW a colony disappearing in that way and the Borg showing up almost immediately weren’t connected.
Lines from the script.
QWho?
QWho?
I can't believe I Liked a Guy post!
I think it's more that "Vox" is a pretty well-known Latin word that also relates to the act of speaking, so it was pretty obvious anyone doing a follow-up to the idea of "Locutus" (Latin for "he who has spoken") would probably end up using "Vox."
They definitely should have renamed the Titan, to USS Picard, not yet another Enterprise. The F could have continued.
Did anyone else catch the similarities to Voyage Home, in the warnings to stay away from Earth, by Chekov's apparent kid?
They rebuilt Spacedock pretty damn fast.
How many senior Starfleet officers were killed by the Borg? The Changelings may not have killed their prisoners, but the Borg started executing everyone, Order 66 style.
By the way, they totally pulled a Star Wars, flying into the heart of the Death Star and blowing its reactor after taking out a bunch of guns and turrets on the surface..... they just got the shape wrong.
Right down to the Emperor dying in his throne room....
I really wanted the post credits to be Project Phoenix.... but Q was fun, and the last part of the "Seasons 1 and 2 don't matter", which i'm fine with, since I never finished either of them. This one is definitely going to be in rotation.
Nothing surprising by the end, but fun, well done, and emotionally satisfying.
Put me on the Legacy bandwagon, which is saying a lot for someone that disowned TNG at one point. I may not be rewatching the old series any time soon, but for now, I'm back on board.

Maybe that IS an alternate path of criteria.... people so talented and so trustworthy, that just can't follow orders - may as well put them in a position where they mostly don't have to, because they are the ones GIVING the orders. Inside top level Star Fleet circles, they've called it the Kirk Effect, ever since the demotion-punishment-reward scenario.
You don't name ships after people who are still alive (there is one exception, I think)
Strictly speaking, Picard is dead... his consciousness was copied into the golem.
not this again please.
Not trying to start a new argument, just saying that if the requirement (written or otherwise) for a ship to be named after a person is that they have to be dead, this would be a loophole.
