I had assumed that it was just a list of Paramount films, but it seems that it was partially that, partially some jokes, and, maybe, partially an attempt to show that movies still get made after today.

To freak EVERYONE out - they should have put Wrath of Kahn in there! It'd freak out the audience - both at home and on the show. The wierd continuity freak-out plus I'm sure the people watching wouldn't like to see any sort of return of Kahn Noonien Singh that tyrant from the 1990s!!

It could just be a movie about someone who took over the world in the 1990s, with the same title as the ST movie.
Now "The Search For Spock" is another story...

You can tell culturally enlightened people by their choice in film, right?

^And on that note, what Western collection is not complete without some Clint Eastwood?!? Evidently this one....where the hell is "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly"?
Posted by Malnurtured Snay (Member # 411) on :
Or "Silverado", for that matter!

I haven't actually checked, but I assumed all the titles were fake except The Day the Earth Stood Still, which was only there because it was explicitly mentioned/shown.

double double, read below.

Well one fake one, I dont think anyone has blatantly noticed yet was the "Dixon Hill" (aka Picards holo-fantasy man) Adventure. Evidently the books were made into movies (a movie) as well....that's another cool lil tie in from "First Contact" as well...

Not just FC but also TNG.
"The Bride of Chaotica" was a VGR episode, derived from a Captain Proton adventure from the ep, IIRC.

Well this ep was supposed to kind follow FC and thats what I meant, otherwise, of course I realized that it was a TNG topic as well..
As for the Bride of Chaotica...nice catch, hadn't noticed that one..but certainly a Captain Proton production...

They are investigating the sphere from FC, 90-someodd years after it was destroyed in FC. Therefore "Regeneration" is a following in the sense of the aftermath or followup of the Borgs (2) attacks on Earth (Cube and Sphere). That is what I meant, and I did say kinda, because on the other had it predates the events in FC, obviously, but moreso it follows because the wreckage originated in FC. Thus: follows.

I see. Well, that makes a lot more sense.
Unfortunately, we're discussing "Cogenitor".

Wow, you're right.....I musta still been on my "Regenation"-week kick.....
