This is it, isn't it? The lowest grossing Star Trek of them all, forever


The last hurrah of the Next Generation and they went out with a fizzle. This was, and will always be, the lowest grossing Star Trek movie. Even if you don't account for inflation, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier still made more and that movie was universally reviled. I don't know why but that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

They shoud not have killed Data that was Spiner's idea and they cut out some great scenes.lf Nemesis had been released with Data alive at the end and less scenes deleted it would've been a great film.Was hoping for a dvd/blu ray version that had some or all the scenes re-edited but after so long l doubt it

The movie suffered from 2 major afflictions...
-A director who had no concept of the material he was working with and no familiarity with the characters or actors playing them

-Rick Berman ' s fetishist clinging to the original script and not allowing anyone to tamper or re-write it

Aside from Stuart Baird being completely out of his element here, a good share of the failure of this movie can be laid in Rick Berman ' s lap. He forced a dark and half-asses scrpit onto the cast, and hired a director who had no love or appreciation for the universe he was invited into.

Yes and Baird is a film editor not a director...weird..
