This week I take on the haters of STAR TREK: GENERATIONS, the very first cinematic adventure of the Enterprise-D and the “Next Generation” crew.

I’m not actually attacking any haters, I don’t mind if you don’t like it. BUT, I do think the movie has been judged unfairly, and it’s actually a masterpiece of messaging. The problem? The message flies in the face of popular franchise (and fan) conventions. Not fan conventions like San Diego Comic Con, I mean, what people expect.

However, the message is an important one. And as I find myself pondering–like Picard–that perhaps I have more days behind me than in front of me, it’s a message I find comforting.

Maybe you will, too. But if you don’t, no refunds.
