Star Trek: Nemesis has been put on Australian Empire Magazine's top 25 worst films of all time list in the magazine's February issue, along with such critically-panned movies as Mariah Carey's Glitter, Madonna's Swept Away and the much-reviled yet newly-popular Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Thats great!!! I really hated that movie. Nothing flowed and the storyline, not to mention the villains, were crappy beyond belief.

I still can`t believe i wasted $10 dollars to see it,plus its almost two hours of my life down the drain.

At least you weren't like my friend who skipped class to go to the opening show while wearing his captain uniform and left laughing because it was the only thing he could do to keep from crying.

...or were you?

Poor guy.

Can anybody really pick a good thing out of the movie, aside from the ending?

I'm... really trying...

Maybe... the starship battle? No, that was just embarassing. And they cheated.

Shinzon? He's sorta alright... if you're fucked in the head.

The feddie dune buggie was kinda cool. It didn't make sense to have one, but it was still *kinda* cool.

I can't think of anything else. Correction: I don't *want* to think of anything else.

Granted it was a lame battle but who cheated?

Tough one...
Perhaps..

Wesley being left on the cutting room floor??

oh wait... I got one.

The expression on Picards face when he was talking to Janeway. He was being polite, but you could also see such contempt in his eyes. You could tell he just wanted to say: "Shut up, I dont need your advice."

Well I loved when the Scimitar was destroyed because it finaly ended the retarded Shinzon (Ooooo scary) and the superweapon that would take months to deploy its weapon on a planet. Not to mention the ship was not even nice to look at nor was Shinzon and his adopted race.

Pocket Books has a new 9-book series called "A Time To..." that takes place post-Insurrection/Dominion War and fills in the gaps between then and Nemesis, answering numerous questions, from how Wesley returned to what happened to Data's emotion chip.

The writers. They cheated us out of a super battle with dozens of Feddie ships versus dozens of Warbirds. Instead we get lamearse Shitzu and his Super-Duper Battleship of DOOM (which sucks too), while the Federation fleet is waiting a couple parsecs away jerking off to Janeway/Hutt porn.

LOL, it's not as if we needed anymore proof that Nemesis sucked, but that's great anyway.

It would be cool if it gave its passengers slightly better protection, and if the phaser could be aimed somewhere other than back...

There was a Frenchman on board, you know. That shouldn't surprise us very much

The negative publicity surrounding Nemesis was enough to prevent me from watching it.

Ace Pace · Post by **Ace Pace** » 2004-02-07 05:12am

Only part I can think of is the Picard\Janeway conversation, I was waiting for a "shut up bitch" to come out, since it was obvious that Picard hated her.

And if it wasn't using the same BFG A/T tires that I have on my truck.

I still can't watch Nemesis without falling asleep. I've never actually seen the battle at the end.

Read Wong's fun picture essay of the thing...you get the entire battle and witty commentary.

Honestly that movie truly just utterly sucked. well not as bad some movies I dislike(Batman and Robin...a few others) but Trekwise?

Bottom of the ladder.

I'm guessing TPM was also on that list. Though I liked it much more than Nemesis.

Well, at least Nemisis got ONE award, even if it isn't a very good one.........

Like said above:
A rank in the top#25 worst movies.
Not a good award, but an award......

Batman and Robin, if I had my way, would be poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered.

Interesting, since Empire Magazine gave it 3 stars.
