[QUOTE]Originally posted by wingsabre: [QB] John is short for Jonathan, just like Bill/Will is short for William, and Dick/Rick is short for Richard. In other words you can say Rick Berman is a dick and not be wrong. I�m sorry for misspelling Jonathan Frankes name, but I�ve always pronounced Frankes, Franks so it slipped my mind to double check his name. I was simply referring to the fact that there�s several cast members who direct, including Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Avery Brooks, and Rene Auberjonois. As for Nemesis, I thought they touched on too many things, and didn�t really carry them through. They tried to show that it was the last voyage of TNG crew, but it wasn�t shown well. I got a bigger sense of that looking at the script, but the script wasn�t that great either. They edited out the goodbye to Beverly. Removed the Wesley toast, and clipped several other stuff. All in all the script was bad, but the movie just made the script look a lot better, especially if you remove some of the stupid internal monologue of John Logan, which was quite pitiful; especially when �Yes!� was typed after a description of the Enterprise warping away. Nemesis felt like this group old guys trying to be hip, like parents trying to be cool. Artistically I liked the opening credits from the script more than the one we saw. The reverse R was lame in my mind. Plus, they took out a whole section in the beginning that introduces the Remans. The only thing I liked from the movie was the music (with the exception of the stuff from Berlin), and the colors. I liked how the orange was replaced with blue tones. The movie also sucked, since I knew what would happen before I watched the movie. I was watching the news, and they did a small segment on Nemesis. I expected, a general picture about the last voyage and that there will be a Romulan influence. They ended up interviewing Berman, which told the whole plot of the movie. He said there would be an android called B-4 or B-9, Clone of Picard, Wedding between Riker and Troy, and the Enterprise will ram a ship, Remans was a lower group of Romulans, and Data could die but would only die to save everyone or for a cause. Every hidden plot, every storyline was given out. Side note on this rant: Personally I think B-4 (before) is a horrible clich� name, and B-9 (benign) isn�t that great either. I think B-9 was referring to the fact that the android was not supposed to be violent but friendly, and would tie in with the whole Romulan plot, but the stupid editors changed it to B-4, so the audience, who they think is stupid, would understand that this android came before Data. Also, I don�t think Boreanaz would help a movie. The stupid writers will mess things up like Enterprise and they�ll go, �We got Boreanaz!� just like they did with Bakula, and went, �We got Scott Bakula!� I�m a little worried with B&B at the helm when they have a big name person on the script since they�ll simply put a bunch of filler, senseless crap so they can give the big name person some air time, and try to milk for more cash.
