And that topic is "Star Trek: Nemesis." Is anyone (else, besides me,) getting bad vibes about this movie? Though I prefer to go into the cinema as "unspoiled" as possible, what I have heard about "Star Trek: Nemesis" (and the information is probably more than I wanted to know) does not sound promising, not to me, at least. Let us start with what I heard will be the big plot twist: the villain is really a clone of Captain Picard. The old evil twin plot. Fitting, perhaps, for second-rate soap operas, but for a Star Trek movie? Besides, how many evil twins can one senior staff possibly have (see Lore and Riker, Thomas)? Even if such a plot was well written, whence doth this clone cometh? Were not the Romulans in a state of no contact when Schinzon was supposedly cloned? And why did they clone Picard? How did they know he would eventually captain the flagship of the fleet? Or is Reman populated by clones of every Starfleet officer?<br /><br />Though the plot could have problems, even many of the little tidbits of information on "Star Trek: Nemesis" have bothered me. I have heard a large Romulan Warbird will attack "Enterprise" in what Rick Berman will undoubtedly eventually describe as a "rip-roaring" battle scene. Translation: "Enterprise," flagship of Starfleet, will once again be pummeled. Now, I have not heard which characters are supposed to be where during such a scene, but if Picard is on Romulus, and Riker is in command of "Enterprise . . . . " Also, a number of the rumored lines of dialogue sound like they were written for fanboys, not intelligent viewers.<br /><br />Finally, from a production standpoint, I find it odd that Paramount is cutting the budget (in comparison to "Star Trek: Insurrection"). Is this film not supposed to be the action packed, in-the-vein-of-"Star Trek II," blockbuster that will reinvigorate the franchise? I fail to see how cutting the budget will help.<br /><br />Once again, does anyone share my fears, or does anyone have any information that contradicts what I said here? Hopefully I am just overreacting to rumors that will prove false.<br /><br />*I cannot take credit for this brilliant multiplication that describes what the 10th Star Trek movie might actually be. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>CaptainMike</b> <br /><small>Member # 709</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2002,1,1,9,8,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">February 01, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">09:08 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Anyone with a good grasp of logic and science can tell that Nemesis wont be bad, because it is even-numbered.

When the only things that you are looking forward to are seeing the designs of the new warbird and Riker's new ship, then you should start getting worried. <br /><br />So far, the plot doesn't fill me with a lot of interest, or confidence that this will be a memorable movie. It sounds like it will suffer from Phantom Menace syndrome (i.e. the overuse of special effects & action to the detriment of plot & characters). The Romulans must have cloned Picard for a reason, but damned if I can think of a good one. And it seems like Patrick Stewart is ga-ga over this whole 24th century jeep thing.

And, while TMP was a very expensive film on-the-books, it's been pointed out numerous times that a lot of what Paramount claimed as the the film's budget included not only its costs, but the money spent on every single attempt to bring back Star Trek between 1973 and 1978, including the aborted Planet of Titans feature and the aborted Phase II show. Then there was the Robert Abel and Associated debacle... oy.<br /><br />And, as "Coming to America" famously proved, Paramount was not above cooking the books with blockbusters to make it seem the film never turned a profit (for tax reasons).<br /><br />Honestly, I think Paramout used that 44 million figure as a marketing tactic, much like ye olde "cast of thousands" claim to get people interested. When you look at the film it's obvious what's on screen didn't cost 44 million dollars in 1978 money. Maybe 25-30. Robert Wise himself has said he figures half the official budget was spent before he even came on the picture.<br /><br />One of the reasons the sequels were so relatively cheap to make was that so much was already built for TMP: sets, effects, miniatures. Then the resuse of effects footage from TMP as well. If they'd had to build it all from scratch TWOK, and make it look as good as they did, TWOK would have cost 15-20 million easy. Maybe more. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Proteus</b> <br /><small>Member # 212</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2002,1,4,19,12,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">February 04, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">07:12 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Personally, I'm NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE.
