    27:11 "One person aboard. It's the android." I love how spontaneously respectful they are about Data's person-hood. I mean, yes. His friends consider him a person and he's officially classified as a person by Starfleet, and I suppose the majority of the audience agrees. But you would think that the antagonists of the story, that have every reason to hate Data, would be more inclined to speak of him as an "it," kinda like they did earlier, with the "Next time, leave your android at home." That line really should've been more like: "No people aboard. Just the android."

    How I would have done this story was have the Ba'ku be the real villains, while the Son'a are the good guys. There would be a moment that Picard realizes that he's been defending the wrong side and decides to turn against the Ba'ku in order to help the Son'a. In the end, it turns out that there is no right side, as both races just want whats best for their people and Picard has both races sign a peace treaty between the Federation, Ba'ku, and Son'a so that each group gets equal amounts of the metaphasic radiation.

      Too similar to _The Undiscovered Country._ That movie may have been just as good as _Wrath of Khan_ (and even been made by the same people), but it didn't sell as much merchandise, so they'll never do that again. Only big dumb action movies from now on, until CBS eventually lose their claim to the copyrights on the franchise.

      One thing that I never understood was the status of the Baku and their planet.
      It is said to be the Federation's planet and not theirs. HOW?
      1 Even if they came from another planet, if they are the first ones to settle there, how did it become the Federation's planet if it isn't the Baku's? Is there some exception in the prime directive? Could you then say that the Romulans don't own Romulus, a former uninhabited planet found first by Vulcans, that it could be added to the Federation if the Romulans were defeated??
      2 The Baku settled on the planet in Federation space, the Federation let them and only later discovered the anti-aging thing. If that is the case, piss off.
      BUT this doesn't work because the woman says it has been 300 years SINCE she has SEEN a bald man, that means they have been living there for far longer than the Federation existed. So again, how can anyone claim it is the Federation's planet?
      And yes them not using technology has NOTHING to do with them living on a youth-giving planet. They could do that anywhere and not once are they asked how they can live with that, how they deny 800 billion people medical treatment that could save lives in cases that would not work if they just were put on the planet.
      Last, I thought the big dilemma, so to speak, was with the longevity of the device. I thought the new medical device from the rings would make the planet uninhabitable, but again save a lot of lives and regrow stuff, etc that would take a long time on the planet, BUT THEN IT IS GONE. It would be harvested, like a dried up lake which means that no-one, not even the Baku would live a longer life anymore and no-one could be healed.
      But if it was implied that the rings would be turned into some form of powerplant that could save people faster even after decades in the future, just the same AND give youth rays, including to the Baku, then that would render that point moot, EVEN for the use in the FEDERATION. The only concern should be for the animal and plant life on the planet.
      But his all hinges on the Baku being on the planet before the Federation. You can still can them selfish assholes, though.

    The original Star Trek would have dismissed the Baku as misguided and harmful. They clearly aren’t accomplishing much; living so long is causing them to put things off rather than learn. Kirk would have encouraged them to embrace technology and space travel as a good thing, and to quit being so paranoid and antisocial.

      Actually, speaking of, I don't think there are any nonwhite Ba'ku. It's not just that there's not any named Ba'ku who aren't white, I can't see any even in crowd shots. Which is weird, because whenever we see Starfleet, even in this movie, it's pretty racially diverse with all manner of ethnicities among the human characters. It really makes you wonder just what other values the Ba'ku hold.

      Michael Piller, the Insurrection writer, died in 2005. He wrote a book "Fade In: The Making of Star Trek Insurrection", a PDF of which can be found on the net, in which he describes in great detail from appointment to critical response.

    According to Wikipedia this actually the most expensive Next Gen movie. Work that out if you will. F. Murray Abraham must've been hella expensive. The problem with this movie is that I have zero sympathy for the supposed innocent victims. I can barely ever remember which is which. They both sound like they could be bad or good. So the Ba'ku landed there by pure accident and decided that they'd stay. They could've spent their significantly longer lifespans trying to figure out a way to capture what makes the planets fountain of youth work for others and potentially help untold hundreds of millions of people in the process. Instead they stay and keep it all to themselves. Frankly I see no problem with transporting them off world if it'll help others as well as the So'na who probably wouldn't be so crazed if they'd have just been allowed to soak up some of that life giving goodness. I mean, what exactly are the Ba'ku doing that's worth a few hundred of them occupying an entire planet? This really feels like a classic "needs of the many outweighing the needs of the few". The inconvenience done to a few hundred Ba'ku is insignificant to the many billions or trillions of humans and other races across the galaxy. The fact the Ba'ku can't get behind that makes them selfish and quite evil. "Well we could figure out how to save so many people I can't even wrap my head around a number so high. On the other hand, who will water my plants when I'm gone? This seems like an easy choice. The plants are far more important". It's not like their lives will be crazy short. After living on the planet for awhile I'm sure they'll have enough goodness stored to push beyond what most people get. And since this is the future and there's all manner of life extending science. Who knows, maybe the guy who was trying to make the cellular entertainment and regeneration chamber just needed some of the special particle radiation from the planet to finally perfect his machine. Even still, look at someone like Leonard "Bones" McCoy. The guy was only retiring at the ripe old age of 137 years old. He must've still had a fair bit of life in him. The Ba'ku's time on the planet could've extended that another hundred years even after they left. I realize I keep repeating myself but they seriously bug me and it ruins any chance the movie had.

      The original Star Trek would have dismissed the Baku as misguided and harmful. They clearly aren’t accomplishing much; living so long is causing them to put things off rather than learn. Kirk would have encouraged them to embrace technology and space travel as a good thing, and to quit being so paranoid and antisocial.

      It’s hard to determine which film is worse because they’re both bad for different reasons. Nemesis at least feels like an actual movie with it’s production value, but it has a terrible script. Insurrection feels like it’s made for television with how cheap and low stakes it is.
