Am I imagining things or were they actually going to blow the Defiant up in First Contact until the DS9 guys were like uh, you can't take the ship off our show and destroy it in a movie that has nothing to do with us what the hell and so they switched it to just badly damaged.

Senor Tron posted:That could have been addressed fantastically assuming the holodeck shootout still happens in the Sisko/Picard team-up. Picard goes nuts shooting the Borg and Sisko calls him out on it, saying something about how they could have been saved, with Picard retorting that even if they lived they would be forever haunted by what they had done, the memories of losing control of their own bodies. I can absolutely hear Sisko saying "You didn't even try!"

Yep. Berman wanted to destroy it and Ira Steven Behr had to convince him how insane that would be.

Rather than wedge the Sisko into First Contact I would have rather seen DS9 get its own film.

I'm inclined to agree, but I've thought about this before and am somewhat at a loss for what a DS9 movie would have been about. The Dominion War feels too big to cram into a single movie, and a movie about the Prophets and Pah-Wraiths would probably be a difficult sell to audiences.

It would be about Dominion Borg and some of the great link being assimilated.

Captain Sisko has prophetic visions of a woman with dumps like a truck, truck, truck, eyes like what, what, what, all night long

I just watched Tapestry, and Q and Picard's chemistry is absolutely wonderful. Such a well written and intelligent episode. Makes me wish we got more Q, though of course we couldn't or else he'd be spoiled.

I think Sisko being on the away team during First Contact would have been interesting. But then again, him calling Picard out on killing his assimilated crewmen would be an amazing scene between two amazing actors. Of course, if they assimilated Sisko, the Borg would get incredible super brooding powers, so... who knows.

Q Wants to Bang Janeway and Q's Qky Qid both remind me of like, an episode of Bewitched where Aunt Clara shows up. Both are therefore fun. I love how they teach Teen Q how to write a five paragraph essay and Q is like "What the gently caress even is this"

I also love when Neelix is trying to have a heartfelt conversation with Q Jr., convincing him to use his powers to help people, then mere seconds in it cuts to Junior having Twilight Zoned Neelix's mouth off.

Janeway you could have got your crew home and all it would have cost is probably having the best and most mind blowing sex you could ever imagine. I mean I guess that's the risk, all other partners would be ruined if you've had Q. It's the 24th century there's nothing shameful about sex work, I mean apart from it being capitalism. But obviously if Janeway don't wanna smash that's completely up to her.

I have a friend who I've been watching through a few episodes of TNG with. She's never watched Star Trek before, but pop cultural osmosis has led her to be interested in Q and Data's cat, so those are the first episodes we're watching.

Fucks a holographic barkeep probably two feet away from several crewmembers.

I'm not saying Janeway should have boned Q to get her crew home and save the lives of the dozen or so crewmembers who died along the way. I'm saying Picard would have.
