When Picard breaks the Borg Queen's neck, I could see the Shakespearean training of Patrick Stewart coming to the fore: "Alas, poor Yorick, I knew him well, Horatio."
I saw this movie a couple of months ago on german tv. It ran in the evening as usual but its rerun the next day during the afternoon was cut. The whole Part where Picard breaks the neck of the queen Was missing. I guess kids should not watch this.
Picard had reasons to be so pissed. What the Borg did to him was very personal. They took away his freewill and used his knowledge of Federation ship designs to destroy 39 Starfleet vessels, killing 11 over thousand people.
When Picard picked up the Queen's skull and spine all the rage from what she made or forced him do at Wolf 359 and what the Borg did to others give Picard the strength to do that to her .
I'm not sure what the value was in a DS9 movie, the series wrapped up all the lose ends and it didn't enjoy the same popular support as TNG did at the time.
DS9 I think was the biggest case of acne for the trek franchise. It was a fucking space station! How they even made more than 1 TV episode out of that hot mess I will never know
Yeah that always amuses me, how the Borg seem to be quite fragile technology if you can snap it with your bare hands! Also their crude look with rubber pipes sticking out of their heads and necks, and clunky overall appearance. It's hardly the 'technology and biological perfection' the Borg's believe they are, or at least striving to achieve. A mirror would be your best weapon against the Borg! Just show them themselves and ask is that their idea of 'technological and evolutionary perfection'? They look like crude attempts at building a cybnetic bio-technological being from junk parts from a scrap-yard. The interesting and puzzling thing about the Borg if you read about their history is that they have been around for millions of years in distant galaxies, so pre-date human beings. It would be interesting to know how the Borg collective came into being, how the race (if you can call it that!) first came into being? Was it a biological race or purely artificial intelligence and technological at the beginning I wonder, or did the Borg evolve as a result of fusion between a biological race and technology perhaps? Something like Data, a pure artifical intelligence hunanoid style robot is closer to be the pure perfection the Borg seek. Which is probably they the Borg Queen was fascinated by him..but they could not assimulate Data or incorporate his technnology into their collective, since the Borg are somewhat limited to assimulating to adapt or learn about radically new technology. Data is incredibly strong being a machine, immortal, and doesn't have any of the limitations of biological lifeforms. His artificial intelligence has evolved to a level where he's become self-aware, able to change his programming and evolve, so really is an artificial cybernetic lifeform, not unlike the Borg itself. Despite their fragile and crude physical appearance I guess the real power of the Borg is their vast hive-mind collective consciousness, with the ability of billions of drones minds to be harnessed together by the Queen Borg over vast distances in nanoseconds, to solve complex problems, make tactical decisions and work together! Also their nanobot technology of course which can both assimulate other beings and technology at the molecular level,and carry out rapid repairs and re-generation of Borg's and Borg technology. So what they lack in physical appearance and limitation they make up with their collective mind and nanobot technology. One of the Borg's most impressive defensive features is the ability of the entire collective to generate force field shields around themselves against any kind of weapon once a few drones encounter that weapon 2 or 3 times, it's then useless against drones in future, wherever they might be in the universe! The Borg would be a truly terrifying enemy and conquering power to encounter. Resistance really is futile! ;-)
@@paullangton-rogers2390 The borg basically look like slugs with metal. And they still seem to be vulnerable to bullets and other physical attacks. While Data is also a machine, he's much easier on the eyes and can think for himself. Which gives him an advantage over the borg. The queen probably didn't think Data would betray her and was shocked when he did. Dr. Soong was a genius to create Data, a being that even the borg would envy. Data had superhuman strength, speed, reflexes as well as a long list of abilities far superior to organic beings as well as physical beauty and a sense of creativity which the borg lack.
@@paullangton-rogers2390they are technologically and biologically perfect, but that doesn’t mean they’re free of weaknesses. They haven’t developed the evolved defence mechanisms of humanity, for example, because they see them as superfluous as their technology protects them instead. But if you can get round that tech, like Starfleet, they’re as weak as any other race.
I've always found it funny that the Enterprise crewmembers on that very ship were not at all worried or concerned, nor did they make any comment about the Enterprise firing torpedoes at them.
there have been many incarnations of Star Trek and some of them good and some fair but TNG was only the 2nd and yet for most of us remains the ONLY! in our minds. i loved Voyager but no ship or crew comes close to TNG, i grew up in the late 80's and early 90's and it remains a part of my growth that i will never forget. i have had some that laugh or ridicule me for being a fan of the series and yet they only do so because they don't get what it meant to those of us who had abusive childhoods and they can't know that music or shows like TNG were a way for us to escape from the pain we suffered, even if it was only for the length of an episode........... that escape helped me to survive my childhood!
That is probably true since with all his experience he could tell, but the queen who tends to ignore the experience that each drone had before assimilation, had no idea, since she was more focused on Picard's pain than what the ships sensors could have told her, it's also why she didn't suspect Data would turn on her, she has arrogance instead of confidence, for without experience confidence is, arrogance.
I love how it implies she is afraid, and picard holding her almost implies she is like a wounded pet looking for protection...and he gave into his rage ine more time
Alice Krige made such a great Borg Queen. It was like a mix of creepinees and the cold sterility of the Borg in her acting that made her a good Trek villain. PS: Just wanna add Patrick Stewart been hitting that gym hard for this scene. Pretty buff for an old dude🤣
I've always wondered what the point was of both Data and the Borg Queen having lights built into their skeletons. It's not like anyone is going to notice them under normal circumstances.
I thought a bit daft too, so many LED's flashing. I suppose it reinforces the notion they're cybernetic life-forms not human and just makes them look impressive visually on the show. Maybe the LED's would be practically useful for quick diagnostic or repair to show humans (or other Borg) visually which circuits or component areas are damaged. For Data, being fully robotic he would need regular repair and maintence like any machine..but tons of LED's flashing on his head seems very crude on such a sophisticated robot lol. A single LED flashing to indicate a system-problem and a diagnostic and repair test socket would suffice! Then connect him to a diagnostic program showing his system and circuits status.
I doubt ra eal Borg so advanced would be made so fragile, probably would be made from titanium steel alloy and unbreakable. Also they're a collective so this scene doesn't make much sense. If she was in danger she has the power of her mind and billions of drones in a millisecond to erect force-fields, reduce the air level, and summon other borgs in large number. They play down the Borg's collective strength..if they truly were a collective of this nature and size they'd be unstoppable..however their collective strength could also be their weakness, as we saw with computer viruses and disorder introduced into the collective hive mind.
One wonders why the Borg made the *one* room with deadly chemicals their foothold in the ship. But that oddity aside, this is my favorite of the TNG movies!
A film without any suspense would just be boring. You need the threat of danger and injury otherwise the film would just be flat. If that's what you want then fine, but the rest of us want an edge of your seat, gripping film, thank you
@@bakerbwoy123 A film can be suspenseful without characters being stupid. If you’re ok with characters making dumb decisions to artificially add suspense, you’re part of the problem that causes poor writing. You’re welcome.
@@September2004 in Endgame part 2 she loses a whole arm and a whole leg and still manages to get about and that's while she's been weakened by a neurolytic pathogen. A full strength Borg Queen is still formidable even with a broken leg. Perhaps if you were a true Star Trek fan you'd know that. You'd also know that the crew disobeyed orders and protocols and made many many foolish decisions so that there was a dangerous situation for them to get out of which makes an interesting storyline. 7 of 9, the doctor, B'Elanna Torres and Tom, Tuvok etc etc have all been disciplined for making rash decisions otherwise it's just a bunch of people on a ship flying around for years, doing the right thing, behaving and getting on with each other which is boring af like you.
The Warp Core seems to be doing its own thing, despite the coolant being dumped across engineering. One cut, fast pulses. The cut where Picard is climbing down after activating the environmental flush, slow ticks, then the next moment the core's back up to pulsing with speed. What's big E doing that it's running the core that high?
well, the borg had been down there rewiring everything for half the movie. Makes sense the core wouldn't be behaving in an entirely standard way, even before the borg went wild
I can’t explain why, but the musical cue when he is getting off the ladder and walking amongst the destroyed borg has always stuck with me. I just love it. 🎶🥲
Same. I'm pretty sure the Queen in Picard is the one from Voyager. The Queen's persona must not be tied to her physical form but rather exists in "the cloud" of the collective, and she can freely move between physical shells as needed, which makes sense should a cube she's on fail or be destroyed. Borg are nothing if not redundant.
I actually have a theory about the Borg queen’s return. We know from other sources that the board installed certain females with telepathic abilities in order to bring order to chaos. So after the destruction of Unimatrix One at the hands of admiral Janeway, the Borg would activate one of their contingency plans and bring about another queen but one that was deformed.
They're quantum torpedoes which means we can either know their position or their speed but not both... I kid. The fact is that it's just movie magic. Like the turbolift, technology in Star Trek operates at the speed of plot.
At this point the Phoenix was traveling close to the speed of light. Riker mentions it a few minutes earlier. It just seems so slow because of the unbelievable vastness of space.
Her skull was moving its jaw like it was still trying say something snarky like *"Prepare to Die, Picard!"* LOL! Maybe she assimilated Robin Swallows (nee Spitz) from Austin Powers 2! 🤖
I find it interesting that there was no complete brain inside her head, or maybe non at all. was that just a regular drone, or are these purpose made drones for the queen?
We know later she was the same Borg queen that later showed up in Voyager. This indicates the Queen's true capabilities exist in an equivalent of what we call distributed computing today. The Queen's physical body here was just one node delegated to the presentation of her thought and form but was not limited to it. Hence, the physical body only needed minimal functionality like a smartphone doesn't need massive computational ability when the real complex tasks (think ChatGPT) are being performed elsewhere. Same reason that she didn't "die" here no more so than smashing a smartphone in rage and saying, "I killed Google!"
@@Elly3981, Given how he played the Queen by earning her trust chances are he was playing along and waiting. Also the borg have assimilated millions some of who are stronger than data so the restraints might have been stronger than him.

it is so stupid: when writer fail to come up with a good ending it is either 1.) time travel or 2.) the super power fails by eliminating the single point of failure.
