I've been bits and pieces on Youtube. Only so much they can do with the ship, but how they changed the planets and some explosions and stuff looked a lot better.

I love the show, but there were times where the effects were REALLY bad. It's nice that they are so lovingly restoring these old episodes. Too bad they can never fix that reptile guy costume. lol

You tell me you didn't love that. You know what was more annoying than those hippies? The episode with those children that get a disease when they hit puberty, the ones that age "one month in a hundred years"? God I hated those children.

What do you think of Spock's Brain? I heard somewhere that it is considered the worst episode.

Yea, those kids were annoying. I remember their leader was a friggin idiot and i wanted to smack him sooo bad.
It was funny how that girl wanted to get with Kirk. He had to even beat the teens off of himself, although she was really a hundred years old. Though I'm sure he could still go to jail on a technicality :-?

Spock's Brain was ok, the ones I really didn't like personally was Kirk as part of a native american tribe, the romans that had modern technology, and the one with Spock's wife. Sorry Im too tired to go and look up the titles.

I would agree but I would still believe that with combined with the other issues I brought up ,The someone at HQ would be worried about giving him an other command.

OptimusN1701 wrote:Riker was commanding the 1701-D when it was lost and that was only because the the Duras sisters had the shield codes through Geordi's visor


Picard was still in command,the ship was asigned to him,he left it in the care of his 1st officer,But in the eye's of Starfleet command that should be called into question as well ,after the events of TNG episode "The Pegasus" where it was reveiled that Riker helped a roge SF Captain break federation law and then helped to cover up a mutiny and the destruction of that ship most other Captains would have fired him on the spot.....no I know that Picard is a fair minded person but there should have been some people in high ranking posions that question this action and then with the lose of the Enterprise D ,should have made it hard for him to get a new ship.

OptimusN1701 wrote:He was not at fault even if the 1701-E was to be destroyed because he took the E back through the temporal vortex to save the Earth

In this last case it was Starfleet's fault that it came to that as Picard's involvement was what turned the tide of the battle and saved the planet. And it could be argued that the Borg would have been stopped earlier if Picard was allowed to bring the E in from the beginning

His violating orders has saved the day more than once


Your think about the wrong movie.........I was talking about how the Enterprise E was almost destroued under his command in ST Nemisus.

The universal translator works by sensing and compairing brain wavesfrequencies then selecting comparable concepts to use as a basis for translation.Not by storing knowen languages in its database.


Um yeah ok

I have no clue where and how you made that up


Most of it was explained in TOS episode "Metamorphosis" where we meet for the first time Zefram Cochrane and they use the universal translator for the first time.They go into more detail on how it works in the DS9 episode "Sanctuary"
You can also find out for your self reading the Star Trek Encyclopedia...and unlike the Ultimate guide that book only sites facts from the shows and dosnt try to rewrite anything.
If you like I can post a scan.

And I never make thing up.

Ooops! We were talking about Fisrt Contact before so I thought you were referencing that one

With Nemesis he was outgunned and on a mission SFC sent him on. They should have sent at least another ship with him if possible, if not a couple of cloaked Vorchas as backup just in case. Even as a "gesture of peace" it's stupid to send your flagship to a possible enemy's homeworld without an escort. I would saw that he fought quite admirably given the odds, and saw raming the Scimitar as the last, best option to stop the ship.

There may very well be one or two of the top brass who would want to reprimand him and be pissed, but they and the rest of SFC must realize they would be dead without this man captaining a ship in the same regards Kirk was only demoted back to captain, which is what he wanted, and gave him a brand new ship when he got back in The Voyage Home

It wasnt a brand new ship.......It was the U.S.S. Yourtown refitted and renamed.And I see your point,I'm not saying that I thought he was a bad Captain......I thought Picard was great......I just thought it was weird that none of these events ever seemed to amount to a hill of beans ....were it on DS9 at least something would have been said that seemed like a repamand.
