  1. Where are they on Enterprise? After only a 100 years I can not see it being entirely quit.

     

    I would like to point out that I do not smoke, but think that its appearence on Enterprise would go to show that there is still some room for improvement between modern society of today and the world presented by TOS.

    As a smoker I can understand your point. But it would not be allowed on a starship, as it would consume too much oxygen and give off too much carbon monoxide. It would also be a risk to other crew members, considering that the air is recycled.

    Agreed, maybe there are some smokers left on earth, but surely they can't be allowed to smoke on Enterprise..

     

    They would have to keep an open window :laugh:


  2. I think the movie was very exciting, but that water thing really sucked.. Water is in everything, why the hell didn't they even know about it? And besides you knew already when that guy went to a lake that the aliens were intolerant to water..

     

    The whole feeling that this "could happen in real life", everything concentrated just around the house, watching it on the news and so on really worked.. Just the water thing that destroyed the movie.. Worth seeing, but not on the cinema (which I unfortunately did)


  3. I think it will be very hard, possibly impossible, to unite all the people on earth with such different cultures and beliefs. However, a common enemy could unite us all, but right now we are far to busy killing each other.. :laugh:


  4. A new cast would not be good at all, they would have to introduce them for the most part of the movie.. Most of those who watch the Trek movies have already seen at least some episodes from the series, so the characters are already known. That can free a lot of time that normally would have been needed to present the characters.

     

    I think it's time for DS9 to continue where TNG finished.

    <span style="display:none" style=&{head};>Yet, if these were unmodified weapons the Borg should have adapted immediately like the assimilated Tarkaleans</span>

    I'll try a different theory:

     

    Click for Spoiler:

    Since the Borg in the episode had been assimilated at different times maybe the more recently assimilated drones weren't able to process the adaption as quickly as the Borg who had been assimilated longer. Do I get points for effort?

     

     

    Click for Spoiler:

    Did anybody notice the weapons they took out of the case to modify were phase rifles and the weapons they were using against the borg were phase pistols?

     

    Click for Spoiler:

    The first weapon they modified was a phase pistol, and just because they took two rifles after that doesn't mean they didn't modify more phase pistols after the rifles..

     

    Furthermore, I think the Tarkaleans adapted very quick because the officer used the stun setting, and then Reed used the stun again, which had no effect. And then when he increased the energy output, the Tarkaleans had adapted..

     

    I think the security on Enterprise had unmodified phase pistols with maximum setting, thus they managed to kill at the first shot, but then they adapted..
