Star Trek Generations

It’s time to enter a new era of Star Trek films. Last week we said goodbye to (most of) the original cast, today we say hello to the Next Generation! This film is a classic example of the “passing the baton” sequel we see attempted often nowadays, and on that front it mostly succeeds. Where it struggles is with the writing, as most of the dialogue is egregious and forgettable technobabble. We discuss all that as well as why this feels like television, how underserved this cast is, and how fun this Enterprise would be to explore.
