The actual process of Assimilation is some scary shit. You don't even need dialogue. It reminds me of when I was a kid and saw the 86' Transformers movie and Unicron was eating whole planets. A Star Trek movie about the Borg would be a really good sci-fi horror film, and the only reason FIRST CONTACT was so good. ZOMBIES IN SPACE.
Corey Leonardo Borgert - Setting aside the falsities that have flowed through your fingertips, it is beyond unlikely that you have any delegated authority from which to lodge your assertions.
This is the very first time that the Borgue REALLY scared me. Sure, they were a powerfull enemy....but personal terror, the loss of individuality, of the self, this is the first time. Voyager had its problems as a show...but when they made right, they were great !
To be fair to Corey Leonardo Borgert , “You (the Federation) are just like the Borg! You assimilate other cultures into your own, removing their distinctiveness to suit yourself; but at least the Borg are honest about it! You’re even More insidious than they are!”
For a race that says it wants to uplift people, there's a lot of screaming during assimilation. You'd think the people 7 rescues would be pumped full of nanoprobes at least, let alone sedated, or stood around a table getting to see what's awaiting them. People can die from the shock of having a limb or eye removed Borg Queenie.
They can probably resuscitate the bodies before brain death occurs. Pain is irrelevant. Shock is irrelevant. Once they are assimilated they never know pain again.
Unnecessary. The drones will not process the trauma of assimilation in a way that will impede their function. Processing additional nanoprobes or sedatives is superfluous to the process and requires expenditure of mass-energy. If the shock results in death, due to lack of physical damage to the body or brain, the heart can be efficiently restarted via electrical stimulation with only minor mass-energy expenditure.
Anesthesia is an inefficient use of resources, but death by shock is an unacceptable waste of resources. Easier to just assimilate the nervous system first and other such parts prone to inconvenient failure of that sort.
If star trek ever did a horror film, i think this would be it like, You hear the screams and you see the poor bloke been half assimilated . Susan who played the borg queen, really shows you how evil and frightening the borg really are. I think Alice who played the original queen never really got this chance sadly.
Alice reappraised her role of Queenie in the final two episodes of Star Trek Voyager. I always thought Susanna Thompson should have been given the role, but possibly she was working on something else.
@@enkisdaughter4795 Funny thing was, she was nearly cast for the 1st contact role, but Alice got the part, instead. Sue said that she based her queen on Alices queen. I don't know they didn't bring either one of them back for the roles like. Both just as frightening as each other, in my eyes.
this was a cool first, seeing first hand the Borg assimilating a civilisation, very effectively done with all the screaming and people being led off like being rounded up for concentration camps kind of thing, haunting imagery!
"There is no 'me', only 'us'" rings a bit hollow when you later see the Collective actually arguing with the Queen, or the Queen interrogating a drone about Unimatrix Zero (surely if she is the Collective, there should be no arguing, and she should already know what that drone knows).
Yeah, the addition of the Borg Queen really broke the Borg. If she was supposed to be the embodiment of the collective, then there shouldn't have been any disunity between her & the collective.
@@Razaiel Nah it enhanced it. Propaganda and hybris, the Borg seem perfect and united from the outside. But inside there is always a glimmer of chaos. The queen can lie to herself as much as she wants, at the end of the day the Borg are just like the rest of the species in the Milky Way. Where there is order, there will always be chaos and vice versa, even the allmighty Q are slaves to this truth.
That morning three hundred thousand people woke up and went about their business when the Borg suddenly came and overwhelmed them, by days end three hundred thousand drones were being shifted around the Borg unicomplex and fleet. The best and the worst of them from Doctors, politicians to petty thieves and convicts connected to the hive mind, children shoved into maturation chambers to have their development altered to satisfy Borg demands. Their hopes and dreams of having children and jobs had been eradicated, their future was to function to achieve perfection before they'd be dismantled.

The fact that they were capable of masking their presence required them to be assimilated. The most efficient means the Borg had for understanding the biodampner tech would be to assimilate the tech, and it's creators.
The ravens tricky shields failed, and the cube picked the ship up on sensors, had a scan and realised it had warp and other tech, which was relevant tech to them if not more. Also Chakotay said that they got too confident, which he was right.
I'm annoyed at the people that the Borg had captured as they weren't resisting their captors. They should've been struggling frantically trying to escape instead of letting themselves be herded around like cattle.
@@STEJTHEGREATEST Then they don't know the Borg very well, do they? Perhaps the area of space the colony world was at is rarely attacked by the Borg so the locals may not know about the Borg.....
@@girlgarde You're saying that if that was you there, in the middle of all that, you'd be able to maintain a cool head, and escape the whole borg vessel, just based on things you knew about the borg from previous episodes and films????? Right.
Because they've been defeated & have resigned themselves to their fate. Think about how much damage the Borg did at Wolf 359 with one cube, now look at this smaller faction facing off against two cubes & the queen's vessel. They pretty much got BTFOd in a matter of minutes.
It’s interesting to observe the body horrors here, to note: 1) the Borg are terribly inefficient; 2) the writers had a limited imagination, and production crew had limited budget and SFX to achieve things; the waste of limbs and organs is a shame. Even ST:P falls to this in their limited concept of the Borg. Alas.
i often wondered if the nanoprobe tech was once a weapon of mass destruction, and was programmed to hijack tech etc, but something went wrong, like in the episode drone, then it all kicked off, assimilating them selves and turning hell bent.
There's a throwaway line in S2 of Picard about how being connected to the collective is "euphoric", so maybe they absolutely crank the dopamine and serotonin production for drones to keep them from wanting to leave.
@ユジン True, the Brunali have only unarmed transport ship who emits false warp signatures of warp speed of 9.8. Powerful enough to can be detected by the Borg
@@shawntipton7398 That's what I was thinking, Seven said the Borg attacked the homeworld three times beginning nine years before season 6, six years before season 6 and the previous year which is the same year as Dark Frontier, I figure the Borg used the transwarp conduit, arrived at the homeworld but moved toward a colony they missed and hit the homeworld again taking some society that was advancing.
@@shawntipton7398 Most likely as the Borg would want to keep the rest of the race around to produce additional technology for them to assimilate later on so they probably went for a colony world belonging to the race in question.
It was unnecessary for that drone to expend energy in resisting the force applied to it, as it is statistically impossible for that individual to escape in any significant scope. As such, it is more efficient for the drone to allow itself to be temporarily displaced.
i wonder how far he would have got, if Seven hadn't have stopped him, Also this was a turning point right there for seven, How her human side kicks right in after she stopped that fella from bailing and getting assimilated right in front of her.
Nah, more like the Dominion: Control what you can, destroy what you cannot. The Borg are a sort of “melting pot” of cultures (which prefers efficiency over diversity), the Nazis are strictly homogenous.
Knowing firsthand how much of a nightmare my Queen was, I would be damned to allow anyone to be assimilated into her collective. You can't blame me for resisting the shit out of her despite our former relations. Man, I can't believe I once reverred her and did her bidding without question. You're not yourself when you're assimilated.
If I remember correctly they did not escape. The Queen shows 7 that they were - (this part I can't remember) either recaptured and assimilated or the vessel was destroyed. It was made clear to 7 that she had been unsuccessful in trying to save them.
What is always bothered me is nobody’s ever bothered to tell the Borg if you are perfection then how do you need anybody else? Perfection means you are at 100%. You don’t need anything added and yet you you add people and technologies to your perfection that doesn’t make you perfect that makes you imperfect, therefore incomplete and what you have said is an oxymoron that makes no logical sense. They probably have killed me rather than assimulate me.
The Borg have stated that they desire to make everyone in the galaxy "perfect". Their way of doing that is to assimilate every alien race and make them all Borg. If you watched TNG's "The Best Of Both Worlds" parts 1 & 2 Locutus basically explains it.
I think the borg drones may have been programmed from the queen, to make sure she isn't harmed in anyway. So when she fell, they just stopped and sorted her out.
There IS a ‘we ‘ at every ‘ me ‘ and covid-19 is proving it to each and every one of us. If I ran the Borg I would dress nicer, drive a Bentley Starship and INVITE every one, ONE, to join our pursuit of perfection. I mean, if I really believe in what I am selling, I don’t need to kill ANYONE 👍🏿‼️especially when all I need to be happy is say, GO MIKEY ‼️‼️‼️
Persuasion, while easier in some ways, takes a lot time and effort. In the clip, the Borg Queen tells Seven to "be efficient." In most cases, the Borg are so much more technologically advanced than the culture they are assimilating that it is way more efficient to just obtain what they want by brute force than negotiate.
Mark of the beast will leave u this way. That’s why they’re very pushy with transhumanism. Time magazine cover feb 2011, title 2045 the year man will become immortal. Sick people
You obviously know nothing about conservatives. Conservatives are the people who will defend one person against the whole weight of society. Liberals are the ones who will sacrifice 49% of the population if the 51% demand it.
