TNG Going out with a Bang!

So what's new about this movie? Picard embodies the perfect Starfleet officer. But take that uniform off and replace it with tattered clothes and remove that individual form his starship and place him in the deep recesses of a sunless world mined by slaves, tortured by Romulans and ...you get the picture.

What I think people missed in this movie was the big question: Are Picard and the clone so different? Shinzon even asks Picard that in the movie. Could Picard have changed or convinced the clone had he had more time? Could the original Picard in a similar situation become evil? Either way, it is the human element and conflict within each of the Picards and is what will intrigue an audience and is what I especially liked about this movie. It wasn't just some random bad guy.

What was also interesting, with all of the technology, sometimes you just have to solve things the good old-fashioned way: just ram your ship into them. I'm surprised that another captain never thought of that.

Great end to a great crew!
