Actually, Psy. I think what you meant to say was...

"Oh please dear god no."

heheheh.. That is what I was thinking too! But in a story line type of way, they should be in, shouldn't they? Afterall the feds always want the best tech stuff they can get.

No. Because everyship and person in Starfleet is not going to spend the next two years wandering around going "wow. That Borg stuff Janeway bought back. Wow".

There was a better argument for the Dominion to be in Insurrection. Or First Contact to be mentioned properly in DS9. And it still wasn't really that important.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Voyager sucks.

The new 'technology' sucks.

Any 'Trek' show set in the 'future' (aka: post TNG/DS9/VOY) will probably suffer if it's forced to utilize Janeway's tech ...

SPOILERS BELOW

1. I did not see

2a. I did not see (since the dialogue clearly established "Scimitar" was designed by a fanboy, and, thus, more powerful than "Enterprise.")

b. I did not see (because Riker was, fortunately, otherwise occupied.)

c. Check (but, again, they were outgunned (and since for once "Enterprise" used all of her weapons (literally, in the case of torpedoes), even with the use of a "gimmick" to win, the film avoided the cliche of "Enterprise" firing a few potshots while being pummeled, which is what I did not want to see.))

3. I did not see (but perhaps I should have wanted to see that as not using his eyes means he dID not get used much at all.)

4. Check

5. I did not see (since my ears did not hear any dialogue explaining his presence.)

6. I did not see (but it would have looked better to me than the sickbay I saw.)

7. I did not see

Though I may sound negative to you above, the film actually turned out better than I thought it would (of course, I thought "Star Trek: Nemesis" would be complete and utter crap). Certainly not the best, but not the worst, either.

Those who originally posted in this thread may want to review what they wrote they did not want to see in the tenth Star Trek film. Are you pleased with what you saw? As I re-read the posts in this thread I noticed a few posters indicated they did not want to see any of the future/special technology present in "Endgame." We did not, fortunately, but why (not)?

In this case, I would like to believe that Worf was invited to the wedding and was thus caught up in the events. Though I have no idea why he would be wearing a traditional Starfleet Uniform rather than some Ambassadorial Clothing.

I forgot: was Worf among the away team that first boarded the Scimitar?

The away team was Picard, Riker, Data, and Troi, I think.

Worf was part of the away team. He was the one who first said of Shinzon, "You are human" as if the audience or away team didn't already see that.

Worf is still in Starfleet, is he not? I see nothing wrong with him wearing a Starfleet uniform as an ambassador, and I guess he is one, as that makes more sense than him wearing red but being "Enterprise's" tactical officer. Of course, we will never know as the dialogue did not offer any explanation.

Well, at no point did Worf specifically say "I will now no longer be in Starfleet." However, it was implied. And also, ambassadors in the real world are civilians, unless they're from scary military dictatorships, and even then they act like civilians, because that's just how things are done. All the UFP ambassadors we've seen have been civilians.

Having said that, it might be perfectly acceptable for Lt. Commander Worf (ret.) to appear in uniform at fancy functions like weddings, and if he happened to be on the Enterprise when it encountered Unexplained Phenomena I can see Picard asking him to take the tactical station.

I guess.

Finally saw it last night.

PRO
+ Picard's toast of "to absent friends"
+ Worf's hatred of Irving Berlin
+ Shinzon's nose. It's mesmerizing.
+ New LCARS scheme. Very neat.
+ Ending spacedock scene

CON
- Picard's "I'm the anti-Al Gore" routine
- the Argo. Completely.
- Romulans. Why where they there again?
- Commander Batgirl.
- Editing out Leah Brahms, Martin Madden, & the Titan. I REALLY wanted to see Steven Culp adjusting to being aboard.
- Smoke trails & lens flares for the warp jump
- Deck 29
- New torpedo tubes & phaser strips. Except for the blob on the aft Deck 3 citadel, you can't tell anything new is there, especially the phasers.
- B-4. Why was he there again?
- Viceroy Vincent. Where's Linda Hamilton? If only Robert Urich was still around for a sequel to "Ice Pirates."
- Sickbay, or wherever the fuck that was supposed to be. "Hey, look! We got shelving at Lowe's!"
- The Scimitar bridge. I kept having to remind myself that the DS9 Ops set has been gone for 4 years & wasn't reused here. Or was it?

NEUTRAL
= The B5 telepathic targeting array
= Worf. Granted, it's been 4 years. He could've reserved his commission to be ambassador, helped Martok smooth things out, & then a more diplomatic person could've taken over, allowing Worf to return to duty.
= New tricorders. Neat looking, but still a little too funky.
= Riker's bloblike dimensions. Scary to see the spread, nice to think that it's being seen that he's getting too old to go running around on the planet all the time & decided to step up to conformal assprint-hood.

All that being said, we should all be glad that I don't have a computer anymore, because I'm getting the idea of doing aftermath fanfic .
