Who else thought the destruction of the Enterprise was weak and poorly thought out. They should have had a way more heroic death for the old girl. I was pretty cheap to have it blown away by a 20 year old Bird of Prey in like 2 minutes. It was just badly written. If I was in command I would have emptied my entire compliment of torpedoes into that bitch as fast as the launcher could throw them. Sure the BoP was shooting through the shields, but I dont think it would have lasted long against a nonstop barrage of over 200 photon torpedoes.
Yeah, It Blew! Bottom Line!
Too Much 'Hollywood'..
Just wasn't real enough - Especially when the Borg were Much More Vicious of an enemy!
Guys, it got killed because Riker was in command. I'm actually surprised the ship lasted as long as it did. It should have blown up the instant Picard beamed down to the surface of the planet.
Ahh Yes.. 'Numbah 1'! Blame it on Numbah 1!
SSUUURRREE.... Sounds good to me...
I'm just amazed the had the blasted frequency of the shield right there in full view for any: traitor, diplomat, intruder,etc..... to read.
It reminds me of the shmucks who write down the combination to a safe right on the wall next to the safe and then wonder why there stuff is gone.
Yeah, considering the number of times someone working against the Enterprise has been right there it's shocking they lasted as long as they have. And you'd think the second they shot through the shields they would change the frequency. They did this on the fly in other episodes. Sure the ship might be damaged by that initial shot but the Klingons would only get one.
Yeah, and I guess Riker forgot the "Change the shields to modulation pattern B" after the shields went down the first time.
THAT'S RIGHT! HE DID FORGET TO CHANGE THE SHIELD MODULATION (THAT LOSER)!!
DIDN'T HE REMEMBER THAT FROM THE GREAT BORG BATTLE??
WHAT A DIP SH*T!!!
Didnt they crash the enterprise in a later movie as well?
Yeah.. That was the Enterprise 'E' being used for Demolition Derby in Star Trek 10
And Star Trek 3. And it really got trashed bad in 2 (a.k.a. the one worth seeing even if you don't really care about Star Trek) but they manage to survive.
He didnt even try to eject the warp core either.
I personally got really tired of the whole "jettison the saucer section" thing. It was cool the first time, but they went to the well to often on that one.
what would have really been cool,is they did an auto destruct sequence, and had the crew leave with escape pods, and we could have seen the Big E blow up all Michel bay style......

AW YEAH!!

I fear sorry for the crew of the Titan. They're doomed.
Guys... I have an explanation for all of this, a very simple explanation: The writers never heard of the word REVISE!!!!!! And for that matter I'm certain they never heard of the phrase "MAJOR REVISIONS" EITHER!

But think of all the cool Jazz they'll
be forced have the pleasure of listening to through the ships PA system, prior to the cataclysmic fiery demise of the ship I mean.
There may even be some time for a quick master class in beard grooming and q-tip Martial arts from their commanding officer.

My understanding is that they did know the phrase "major revisions". They just couldn't reconcile that with "coherent" and "interesting".
The Klingons should have figured out a way to beam Star Trek V onto all the screens on the Enterprise.
That bomb blew up my TV after all >:(
What? Surely you cant be reffering to the theatrical masterpiece that is Star Trek V, the Final Frontier. You must be thinking of a horribly made Star Trek V knock off.
Riker: She went before her time.
Mike: [as Riker] Because of my staggering incompetence.
