I am part of the group that thinks Insurrection was not just bad as a movie, but bad as a plot line all together. Literally everything about the Ba'ku-Son'a conflict falls apart at the slightest scrutiny.
Phase 2 production attempts actually only lasted a year or two right before filming on TMP started.
They were going through a few different movie scripts at the time. Interestingly, a rejected one was about a black hole that threatened to consume reality, not dissimilar to the prime timeline part of '09.
Then where did Molly and Kirayoshi come from?
Your picture is missing the, "Never give up," part.
Smiling Spock in SNW channels the same energy.
Would be weirder if he inexplicably lived.
Captain Freeman referenced it destroying the Orion ship in the intro, so it's making its way toward the plot. Or the Cerritos is making its way to the plot.
I feel like the Klingon response to their gods coming back would be something along the lines of, "How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?"
"I have ranks in the medicine skill, not divine caster levels!"
Or Gorn Flakes.
Add in Sokel for the next round. He was T'Lyn's former captain.
