The trivia participation has been quite low this week so I'm going to leave the questions open until tomorrow (Saturday) at 4pm GMT/11am EST.

Last chance for this week guys!

I think Sean Connery was the best Bond and I liked Pierce Brosnan. The others were a slump in the Bond films they just came across as smarmy.

I don't think I'd like James Bond if I met him.

I think the Borg effect was more successful before the introduction of the Borg Queen. For me one of the things that intrigued me was the fact that we knew so little about them, we didn't know what was inside the cubes, what they really did to you once you were in there and how they did it only seeing the after-effects of the assimilation process.

Even after this it was still effective. When we first saw people being assimilated it looked like they were being devoured by these nanoprobes. The sense of helplessness, the fact that it seemed like there was really nothing you could do to stop your body being taken over and being forced to do abhorrent things to people, anybody, even your family.

Apparently my Irish accent is fairly strong and has always been more of an asset than anything else while travelling. Doesn't matter over here, nobody thinks I have an accent in Ireland, only comes up when I'm out of the country.

Ok that makes sense. Your saying that it is like a outer laying of skin that in a sense grows as the nanoprobes assimilate, so it is actually interconnected or bonded into the drones skin on a molecular level?

I believe it's supposed to be bonded to the skin which is why the EMH on Voyager had to design special dermoplastic clothing for Seven.

Of course this is all conjecture.

I am not sure if this is really a inconsistency but it is something that doesn't really make sense to me.

 

In the Voyager episode that introduces the Borg children I find it kind of weird that the children would have body armor similiar to the full grown drones.

 

They where in maturation chambers still going thru the process of maturation. Some if not all of them where not full grown so why would they have the body armor unless does the body armor grow with them as they are matured?

 

A lot of the assimilation is done on a molecular level. It makes sense that even the body armor could be created and repeaired on a molecular level also, but to me it makes more sense that they would wait till the drone is full grown before adding the armor/platting.

I think the first problem with what you're saying there is that you're thinking of what the Borg have on their bodies as a uniform. I don't believe it's a uniform at all, it's not like they go into the Borg changing rooms every morning and take it out of their locker. What they appear to be wearing is essentially what the nanoprobes have placed on areas of their body to both sustain and advance them and there is no reason why pre-maturity drones wouldn't have this.

John de Lancie did a fantastic job with the character and although it was a well written character I doubt it would have been as successful and likeable if played by anyone else.

I think they should have had a episode where one of the children remembered the events leading up to being placed in the maturation chamber and having to deal with the emotional after effects of that.

We had already seen that with Seven so I doubt they wanted to do it again, just repeating an episode.

It's a shame really but what's most unfortunate is that it's probably the first of many.

Definately not Gene Roddenberry, doesn't look anything like him.

I think one of the reasons people rule out a DS9 movie is becuase they think that Sisko is gone for good. He did tell Cassidy that he would be back in "maybe a year, maybe yesterday".

Well technically he should be called by the last rank he had so Ambassador Spock is most appropriate.
