Its much more likely that we should disregard everything from that movie because it was an alternate time line, at best. In actuality, it was just crap.

I liked the movie. 🙁

Sure it wasn't traditional trek, but it was fun and gave some much needed balls to the characters.

Sorry, they did that on Enterprise already. Vulcan zombies, basically. 😀
 
Now that CGI is getting cheaper, they should do a series that's based on another war, like DS9. Maybe a pre original series klingon/federation/romulan conflict.
 
Maybe a musical! Yeah, a musical with some stand up comedy, a romance of course, and a happy ending where everyone has one big love fest!

I remember the Queen getting infected/dying and a lot of ships getting blowed up, but did it really kill the entire collective?

It was mentioned by Admiral Janeway that blowing up the transwarp hub would 'set the Borg back twenty years' (or some other big numbers).

So no, they probably didn't kill the entire collective, but it would take them decades to recover from the devastation.
 
i so wish somebody on voyagers crew would have punched that whiny punk ass bitch nelix in his nose a few times

I like what they did with the characters, but hated the "story"....which was essentially "Find every excuse to make an explosion or use a camera flare".

Seriously, it seems like all action movies are like this lately. They need to learn how to slow things down.

Blowing up the transwarp hub, may have set them back 20 years...

killing the queen in her own complex, did far much more.

That's what Enterprise was turning into during the 4th season. The next seasons were going to be about the Romulan war and it was gonna be awesome, but they canned it.

This. They blowed up the entire complex thing, and infected the queen with that virus that spread through the entire collective.
 
I think the better question is "How would the crew have faired if Janeway kept her pussy and didn't grow the pair of balls she got in season2?"
 
First off Voyager wasn't anywhere near as good as DS9 or TNG.

If a Galaxy class ship was sent, it would have been TNG on the other side of the galaxy. Nothing "new", even if Voyagers new stuff sucked.

The problem with ST is they are stuck in the same era of the ST universe. Enterprise was ~2150's, ToS was 2260's, but TNG/DS9/VOY all took place in the 20 year span between 2360-2380. We have been stuck in the same little 20 year period in the universe for effectively 20 real years (1990-2010). Give us something new, and not the alternate timeline reboot. Although that could work too.

Didn't they 'kill' the queen in First Contact? Doesn't seem like it affects them too much. From what I understand the queen is the collective. Creating a new vessel to serve as the queen seems fairly simple since they've done it before.

No crew comforts, no science facilities. I'm not even sure that in an absolute sense the Defiant has significantly more firepower than an Intrepid. For its size it's extremely powerful but I got the feeling that the Intrepid was pretty well decked out for her size.

The defiant would absolutely rape an Intrepid. It has better phasers, and much better quantum torpedos.
The Intrepid is not a combat vessel. It is not heavily armed nor is it better than a Galaxy class ship.
The Intrepid is faster and more manueverable, but the Galaxy has substantially more firepower and substantially more shields and reserves for anti-matter and power generation.

A Galaxy class ship would simply own anything other than a Borg cube in the Delta quadrant.

I don't understand peoples love for Voyager. It was a mediocre ship with a mediocre crew.

I think a continuing progression of the TNG timeline would be cool. Just stop using techno mumbo jumbo and don't turn it into another copy of BSG where everyone hates each other and they are always fighting.

The problem is that by the end of the TNG/DS9/VOY era, pretty much all the big bad guys are gone. The Dominion (most dominant and feared bad guys in the Gamma Quadrant) are defeated. The Borg (most dominant and feared bad guys in the Delta Quadrant) are neutered as well. The Klingons are allies with the Federation after DS9 and even the Romulans got sorta friendly with the Federation (not to mention they were busy fighting amongst themselves) in Nemesis.

They could send more ships into the Delta Quadrant, but that damn Janeway already made peace with some of the species.

Gamma quadrant is ripe for exploration now that the Gen'Hadar (?) won't baserape any colonies.

Ya, please no nitty gritty, ultra-realistic bullshit BSG clone. I don't care how emo people get, it's Star Trek, everything should be clean and pure. No, but no emo please.
