I have to say, not bad. Like everyone else in the world, there were one or two things i would have done different myself but it looks good to me. too bad there weren't decent quality deleted scenes to include, like Geordie's torture. would have made the whole "his heart wasn't in it" joke make sense. but in any event, thanks for the work. it is appreciated.

I had a thought today. anybody try doing an edit of "First Contact"? It is a pretty sound movie but i had the idea of removing all of the Data/Borg queen scenes right until the end where Picard goes to Engineering after everyone else abandons ship. While those are good scenes, they can be removed and it doesn't hurt the main story of the movie. plus if you remove it, it makes a bigger impact towards the end when Picard is on the bridge and he hears Data say "Captian". Just like Picard, the audience assumed the worse and now realize he survived. As well, it makes a bigger impact when Picard sees the Borg Queen for the first time. We will have seen her at the beginning of the movie but like Picard, assume she is dead since we didn't see her through out the rest of the movie. then all of a sudden, she is there and Data is assimilated. it means getting rid of some cool scenes but in the end, I don't think it would hurt the movie any. Thoughts?
