Mr. Plinkett, you forgot to mention the most glaring problem with the photo of young Picard. It didn’t have the space hologram border like in his Generations photo album. That for me took me right out of the movie. At least have some continuity with your space photos, damn people!
15:21 we see what happens when Patrick Stewart has too much to say about what what happens in the story. I’m sure future show runners won’t do that again…
@@spinnigoldSame reality where Bill Murray stopped a Ghostbusters 3 from happening while we still had the chance of having all 4 ghostbusters together again... sad.
Just like the entire galactic republic in the force awokens was like 4 planets that are so close together in orbit that they were going to smash into each other in a matter of months anyways. The First Order could have just waited. Stupid arrogant assholes who don't care are now in charge of everything we once loved, and there's nothing we can do about it.
@@Pauly421 but we can do something about it... We can make long, hilarious youtube videos pointing out how stupid those who are now in control of our favorite franchises are. That'll show those regal millionaires!
Blame J. J. for making that shit canon in the Prime Universe (because he didn’t thought anything new would be done in that continuity anymore, and let’s be true, nobody did) only so that he could be free to make up shit for his movies, whose he dropped after the second one. And now we are stuck with it. They could have scratched that, but someone told them that Trekkies are continuity obsessed, so they kept it, even though most Trekkies wouldn’t give a shit if they didn’t consider not only that but all the TNG movies (at least 3 of them, most certainly Nemesis)
Worf being back in starfleet may not have bothered you, but it certainly bothered me. Giving up his ambassador position to take a step back as a, I'm assuming reduction on rank from Commander to Lt Commander, shows lack of growth. It literally is a step backwards. But personally, I believe the writers just either forgot about DS9, or simply were clueless of what happened on DS9.
Not really-DS9 had already established that the future of _Star Trek_ was going to be all magic, mysticism, destiny, fate, and heinous, unforgivable war crimes being framed in a positive light.
I was stunned with the stupid with the "reveal", where they have to wait 5 min to reveal....................................Tom Hardy with a shaved head. But the real insult was that stupid picture. I have no words to describe the facepalm moment I had.
To me, the last episode of TNG (All Good Things) was best way you could possibly end it.. I think it's one of the best episodes of the show, one of the best last episodes of any show, and better than any of the movies after.
The series out classes any of the TNG movies, cause the TNG movies were revamped into action flicks for the big screen cause not a lot of people in the general audience actually like the whole “exploration and discovery” portion of star trek.
I think Generations felt close enough to TV TNG, or at least the characters felt close enough to their TV counterparts. Picard still felt out of his element when doing action stuff during the climax, and Kirk's death was... strangely appropriate. I mean, I wish he had died in a different manner than getting crushed by a falling bridge, but at the same time... at least he died while saving lives and making a difference. Plus, we do get a small inspirational speech of sorts from Picard at the end of the movie, which is as close to TV TNG Picard as the films actually got. Sure, the film was dumb (its script was hammered out over a week or so, according to its own writers), but... it's certainly not the WORST thing in Trek history.
AGT was great and it's super easy to just pretend to oneself the movies don't exist in you're own internal mind and that was the end. But of course the characters were still alive and seemingly still doing what they do, as they were not separating or retiring or anything. IMO the movies are maligned somewhat unfairly. FC almost makes them worth it on its own irrespective of if you liked the other three films. FC was a great film. Generations and Insurrection are critiqued for being like big TV episodes but I don't find that to be that big a problem as I liked TNG the series anyway so I can overlook and just enjoy it for what it is. Nemesis is the low point for me. Even then, I find aspects to it I enjoy. The space battle is pretty decent tbf. B4 is interesting subplot which sadly doesn't go very far into anything. The actual plot is interesting but the execution is very flawed to say the least. The budget needed to be bigger and they needed to move off the ships a bit and try to make the movie bigger in terms of locations and some really exciting set pieces. What we got was a limiting movie with pretty bland set design. I did like the Enterprise E bridge and the new sickbay looked better than what we had in last two movies lol The Romulan Senate was WAY too small IMO!
To me, all the movies were terrible because of Patrick Stewart. It was obvious he experimented with radically different Picard’s personalities in the movies to audition for future acting roles instead of honestly approaching the character. He absolutely despised being typecast after Star Trek and he frequently brings it up in his interviews.
Considering the _thicckness_ Worf achieved in the 3 years since the end of DS9, I think that Admiral Ross actually asked Worf if he'd like to be the Federation Ambassador to _Krispy Kreme_
Space battles in Star Trek are now like cheap dogfights in some PS4 game. The reason the action worked so well in Wrath of Khan was because they really felt like proper naval battles. I relished the way the ships made passes on each other and let off a volley of shots. It gave you a sense of scale and grandeur. Now they just race around, twisting and turning like Spitfires going "pew pew pew" constantly. It's boring and feels completely fake.
Crap, Nemesis feels like a pleasant memory compared to Star Trek: Picard. If old Plinkett could have seen the future, he would have made good on his coffin shopping joke. (Beautiful remaster by the way)
Any previous Trek is better then the hot garbage of _Star Trash: Disaster, Star 'Tard: Picard_ and _Star Wreck: Lower Dreck_ -- which is saying a lot considering how bad Nemesis was.
@@MichaelPohoreski All the signs of Star Trek's demise were there in Nemesis: Patrick Stewart re-writing the script so it was a story about Patrick Stewart more than Jean-Luc Picard; nonsense story that makes no sense if you think about it for a few seconds; ripping off other franchises and science-fiction (swooping CGI vistas look a lot like Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings); focusing on cheap action that adds nothing to the story; producers and even actors who don't seem to know what Star Trek is really about; characters that don't behave anything like they did a few films before, or in their own TV series. Nu-Trek has taken all this and turned it up to 11.
I'm trying my best to space these out but it's so exciting to see my favourite reviews in glorious HD! Incredible work on these, what a wonderful gift to all RLM fans
The fleet of starships showing up to check out the positronic signature is still hilarious a decade later. These reviews never get old! Amazing work with the HD recut.
Big thanks to ManticoreEscapee for helping me find the last TNG clip I needed. I am going to work on a fully 3D version of the Avatar review next. All Avatar and Titanic clips will be in 3D and I am trying to do overlay and effects in 3D as well where they will float a bit in front of the screen. I plan to work on Star Trek (2009) or Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith (4k remaster) after that. I have alot done on the Episode 3 review but I want to try to do that all in 4k. Thanks for all the positive comments. I can get down working on these sometimes because it is a lot of work and appreciate the positive comment.
For all of Nemesis' flaws, Music is not one of them. The late Jerry Goldsmith's soundtrack for this film is absolutely phenomenal. If only the same could be said for the film's script.
Honestly I understand Star Trek Picard right now. Nemesis was probably the last thing the four producers watched (while high) and it was the only thing they could remember in the meeting the next day after they were choomed out their gourd, so they only centred the plot around androids and Romulans.
1:20 "People getting sucked out into space" Data: "Correction Sir, that's blown out." EDIT: You even completely recreated the Worf Weight Watchers cover at 37:37, LOL. That's dedication, considering I couldn't even read the small text on it due to the blurriness of the original video.
I get that the bald picard captaining the ship is the same person in the picture, because they're both bald. But who was the kid with hair working in the mines? He just some random kid or what? I don't understand what the kids relevance to Picard and Shinzon is
John Logan was fresh off his success with Gladiator and Stuart Baird was supposedly a last minute desperate switch for a different take after Frakes did the previous two, but he didn't understand the material like David Carson, and directing this was somehow tied to his contract to direct U.S. Marshalls.
It's funny how the Enterprise E seems to have a lethal laser rifle behind every wall in the ship. The walls are practically insulated with dangerous laser rifles. I don't recall seeing anyone use a gun in all of TNG but suddenly in the movies they have to be ready at any moment to murder their enemies. Which also makes it weird when Picard beams to the Scimitar and they go out of their way to show he drops his phaser. Was there any chance he was gonna use that in this movie? The moviegoing audience probably saw that knock across the floor and went "what was that thing?"
"The only person turning my little man into a torch is my urologist AAAHHH!" Cracks me up every time! Seriously you're doing great work. Its great seeing these in higher quality in one long video. Thank you for your hard work.
I read somewhere that he used to get a ton of fan mail, saying they loved him, and it ended up being he was sending himself praises so they'd keep him on the show, LOL
So hardy hit some really deep seeded dark depression after making this movie because everyone railed on him for it or something, i forget the story, but I always thought hardy nailed that character, like full on boss mode.
@@darwincity Ya, beats me, I don't know why he would of fell into a depression though. Sure the movie didn't do well and it wasn't spectacular but I seem to remember everyone doing a pretty good job. If I had to complain it would be mostly storyline, story telling and plot points. Not acting quality.
He's one of the best actors of our time. I'm on a big Tom Hardy kick and didn't realize he was in this movie. Didn't want to sit through the movie, so watching this instead. Might have to watch now because of this comment.
"Star Trek: Nemesis is the final nail in the proverbial space coffin" It's like the people in control of the franchise took this as a challenge to deliberately make it even worse.
"When producers and actors start meddling with the movie and develop the story, it always comes out like a big Lincoln log." I'm sure that didn't happen at all with Star Trek: Picard right? Right???
Mr. Plinkett would have himself a grand ole time reviewing *Star Trek: Into Darkness.* Where the producers totally redone *The Wrath of Khan* and did everything wrong. At least *Insurrection* was at least watchable while still sucking all the air out of the room.
There’s a green plastic violin or fiddle in star ship troopers! Shared universe?! I just found out full impulse is 1/4 the speed of light....it looks so slooooow thooooooough!
Over the years, I’ve come to prefer even The Final Frontier over Nemesis. It’s such a poor, poor movie on so many levels. What a terrible way to end a great TNG run.
Very low budget movies in the 70s and 80s managed to disguise jeeps or dune buggies or ATVS or motorcycles in interesting ways. And this StarTrek movie can not.
Don't forget the teeny tiny little magic portable personal transporter pin that somehow not only transports (disassembles, transmits/relocates, and them reassembles) the wearer...but also somehow, all while doing that, transports (disassembles, transmits/relocates, and then reassembles) *itself*. So there's going to be some part of the process, no matter how brief, where the tiny personal transporter, while being taken apart (*by itself*) is...well...taking itself apart. And there will be part of this whole process where the personal transporter itself is nothing but a bunch of discorporated atoms and molecules in a data stream or energy stream or matter stream or phased state or all of the above (depending on which of those explainatory terms is being used in that episode, as they ALL have been used at some time or another to describe how the transporter supposedly works)...but anyway, there is a time during this whole process where the personal transporter device is itself disassembled and essentially non-corporeal but is STILL working to transport and reasseble itself. It's magic!!! And now in Discovery the 32nd century Starfleet has an even *tinier* version of the personal transporter built into every holo-PADD communicator/tricorder + lifesigns monitor badge that every crewmember wears.
Both Wrath of Khan and Nemesis have the scene where the Captain talks to the bad guy as a distraction except it was wholly unnecessary in Nemesis because instead of having to do it while the villain is staring at him Picard just shuts down communication and tells Troi what to do even after he sent her the secret message. It was completely pointless to send the first message.
This is the only Star Trek movie that Alex Kurtzmann watched
It has to explain why Picard is such a shitshow
Wrong - its the only one his intern watched.
We don't say that name here.
@@bathyprobe LOL - Yeah !

@@spinnigoldSame reality where Bill Murray stopped a Ghostbusters 3 from happening while we still had the chance of having all 4 ghostbusters together again... sad.
It's funny how the Romulan Star EMPIRE is so prominent in this film, yet in Picard, the Empire was apparently only a single planet.
Yes, EXACTLY
Apparently the third largest power in the quadrant, with hundreds of ships, was just that star system getting blown up LOL
I mean, it's called the "Romulan 'Star' Empire" and not the Romulan 'Stars' Empire for a reason.

Still better than ST:Picard though.

Little did Plinkett know that Discovery, Lower Drecks and Picrap would make this look tame by comparison.
Tame, I assume?
And nobody predicted it was going to get so bad. The OS films have aged like a fine wine, while the TNG films have aged like milk.
It makes Nemesis look like the blueprint for all the future Star Trek products despite that movie being a complete flop.
Season 8 of TNG died for this.
What do you mean by that?
There was never a season 8. It was always meant to go 7

So hardy hit some really deep seeded dark depression after making this movie because everyone railed on him for it or something, i forget the story, but I always thought hardy nailed that character, like full on boss mode.
Could this depressive episode have been related to Black Hawk Down, of which Hardy was also a cast member?
@@darwincity Ya, beats me, I don't know why he would of fell into a depression though. Sure the movie didn't do well and it wasn't spectacular but I seem to remember everyone doing a pretty good job. If I had to complain it would be mostly storyline, story telling and plot points. Not acting quality.
He's one of the best actors of our time. I'm on a big Tom Hardy kick and didn't realize he was in this movie. Didn't want to sit through the movie, so watching this instead. Might have to watch now because of this comment.
Plinkett reviews go so well with sampled rap beats.
Riker is the real Austin Powers in this comparison
"Star Trek: Nemesis is the final nail in the proverbial space coffin"
It's like the people in control of the franchise took this as a challenge to deliberately make it even worse.
Dig it back up! We've got newer, bigger nails now.
Worf didn't become a Klingon ambassador, he was a Federation ambassador posted to Kronos. Just Saiyan.
Didn't the Klingons abandon Kronos after the destruction of Praxis?
I've wanted rlm to remaster these for such a long time
"When producers and actors start meddling with the movie and develop the story, it always comes out like a big Lincoln log."
I'm sure that didn't happen at all with Star Trek: Picard right? Right???
I don’t know who you are but I think I love you.
You made me laugh for 45 minutes. And you know your Star Trek.
The original upload was from some old guy named Plinkett. He has ties to this group of misfits at Redlettermedia but who’s to say really?
10:04 That tapping sound. lol
Mr. Plinkett would have himself a grand ole time reviewing *Star Trek: Into Darkness.* Where the producers totally redone *The Wrath of Khan* and did everything wrong. At least *Insurrection* was at least watchable while still sucking all the air out of the room.
Even Firefly’s MULE was a hovercraft! (in the film and it was always meant to be in the show but budget wasn’t there) Come on Trek!
You are a gentleman and a scholar for remastering this.
There’s a green plastic violin or fiddle in star ship troopers! Shared universe?!
I just found out full impulse is 1/4 the speed of light....it looks so slooooow thooooooough!
Hey remember when the kelvins wanted to capture the enterprise and sent out a distress signal that kirk responded to? That made sense
King Arthur pulled himself on Mordred's pike at the end of Excalibur. That was a GOOD movie, unlike ST10.
"Come father, let us embrace at last"
Excuse me , i need to be alone with Helen Mirren's and Katrine Boorman's and Cherie Lunghi's breasts.

Man I am so glad I found your channel!!! Entertainment, exposition, and Trek! Thanks! LLAP🖖🏿
Over the years, I’ve come to prefer even The Final Frontier over Nemesis. It’s such a poor, poor movie on so many levels. What a terrible way to end a great TNG run.
Heya is TOS. A good way to start Trek or TNG.
The Final Frontier is actually fucking fantastic.
I refuse to buy Nemesis on DVD even for $2 at goodwill.
Wesley went back to star fleet for the health insurance
I have a bit of a soft spot for this movie, it was the last vhs tape i ever rented.
9:30 Riker plays, what? "Trumper"?; Trumpet?; Trumbone? what are you SAYING Mr. Plinkett?
ECKohns you know there’s ignorant murderous people out there?
“It’s time for the procedure.” The one that never happened. I am glad, someone else noticed.
"Well Picard stayed on as captain"
Not according to ST: Picard.
He still stayed for a few years according to that timeline, it was 8 years before the JJplot began
"Wait, none of this happened-" kills me every time
Star Trek Nemesis is so dark and depressing, it would fit in perfectly in Star Trek Discovery and Picard.
I was learning how to do video editing specifically to do this! Wow, great work
Dont worry, the Picard show managed to make this look like Shakespeare
Season 3 is what the 90s movies should have been
Very low budget movies in the 70s and 80s managed to disguise jeeps or dune buggies or ATVS or motorcycles in interesting ways. And this StarTrek movie can not.
Shinzon/Dr Evil. This can never and should never be able to be unseen. 28:04
wow the amount of work that went into this is unreal. thank you, it’s nice to not have that BotW quality to the old plinkett stuff

I know I'm about 14 years late and on the wrong channel, but I really want a pizza roll send me a pizza roll. 🍕
i can recite almost this whole video by memory
Haven't even seen this nor any Star Trek. I just see Mr. Plinkett video and I click it.
What happened to Kirk's hair from TOS to the movies?
Wouldn't it have helped to start the movie with a flashback of young Picard (played by Tom Hardy)?
"What I do know is that the only thing spinning faster than those tyres is Gene Roddenberry in his grave."
Don't forget the teeny tiny little magic portable personal transporter pin that somehow not only transports (disassembles, transmits/relocates, and them reassembles) the wearer...but also somehow, all while doing that, transports (disassembles, transmits/relocates, and then reassembles) *itself*. So there's going to be some part of the process, no matter how brief, where the tiny personal transporter, while being taken apart (*by itself*) is...well...taking itself apart. And there will be part of this whole process where the personal transporter itself is nothing but a bunch of discorporated atoms and molecules in a data stream or energy stream or matter stream or phased state or all of the above (depending on which of those explainatory terms is being used in that episode, as they ALL have been used at some time or another to describe how the transporter supposedly works)...but anyway, there is a time during this whole process where the personal transporter device is itself disassembled and essentially non-corporeal but is STILL working to transport and reasseble itself.
It's magic!!!
And now in Discovery the 32nd century Starfleet has an even *tinier* version of the personal transporter built into every holo-PADD communicator/tricorder + lifesigns monitor badge that every crewmember wears.
I tried sending a dollar.... It got returned to sender. I expect a Pizza Roll, dammit!
the pizza roll bid always gets me laughing
Both Wrath of Khan and Nemesis have the scene where the Captain talks to the bad guy as a distraction except it was wholly unnecessary in Nemesis because instead of having to do it while the villain is staring at him Picard just shuts down communication and tells Troi what to do even after he sent her the secret message. It was completely pointless to send the first message.
