The Final Splat
21 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
After warping in to the 21st century the fate of Star Trek was uncertain. Nemesis did not help.

There is a coup on Romulus. The Romulan senate is stoned and misses the chance to stop it after all comes crashing down a savior emerges , in the form of a Reman named Shinzon.

Admiral Janeway dispatches the enterprise to meet the new leader at his request. After a tour of his ship his crew are treated to a mild interrogation and Shinzon hits on Riker's girl.

Picard is not amused but in the interest of diplomacy accepts a second invitation to dinner where Shinzon reveals he is a Picard wanna be clone. In the meantime Data is struggling with his new found cousin B4. More the yokel than complete droid he causes all kinds of havoc in Picard's absence. He is then shut off but not before Shinzon kidnaps Picard.

Meantime the locals on Romulus are beginning to figure out what most anyone watching this movie did after 20 minutes , nothing is going on , nothing coherent is going to happen so why are we dealing with this?

Both Picard and the Romulans lose patience , and Shinzon is " removed from office " .

When the highlight of a film is Data singing. It's a sharp reminder of how flat a project it was. Take note this was a bad long winded yarn.
