    Movie Trek has always been action for the most part anyways

    The Motion Picture and The Voyage Home.

    …and, also, would kind of fuck up the characters. Hell First Contact turned Picard into a mentally unhinged action hero.

    Picard always had that possibility inside him. After all, that sort of behavior is why he had an artificial heart. I thought that scene in First Contact worked amazingly well, TBH.

    (If anything, the unrealistic portrayal of Picard is how he was immediately mostly back to normal after The Best of Both Worlds, as if it never even happened.)

      Those are two examples of when it wasn’t just action which really fits with what I said about how it’s only for the most part usually just action.

      But okay I’ll admit you have a point about Picard
