Episode 9: The Movies
Movies #9: Humanity Needs to Get Over Pimples
AKA: A Passion for the Sack
Is every Star Trek movie the one to beat? How much of this movie takes themes from Deep Space Nine? Would you consider this a light-hearted movie or an ethical drama? Is the frozen moment in time cheesy? Does Data have more subtlety than Riker? Listen as Ashlyn and Rhianna take a standard orbit around Star Trek: Insurrection.
Trigger Warnings: Displacement and diaspora.
Spoilers: Star Trek: Insurrection, Picard episode 1 “Remembrance,” and DS9’s “Tears of the Prophets”
This is the ninth episode of our Movie series, where Ashlyn and Rhianna head to the silver screen to discuss every single Star Trek film.
Is that Venom?! Join our clones next week as they talk Star Trek: Nemesis.
