I do not like how Paramount treated the later STNG movies. Not sure how you go from Generations and First Contact to all that other garbage. But I am glad they have made a comeback. Too bad it seems only one director can get it right these days.

Easily explained, if you watched the bonus features. It's the writers. Not the studio. Generations mind set - wrap up series, baton pass. FC - Action movie - fun compared to last one. Insurrection - use Gene's main ideals - ends up feeling like a long TNG episode. Nemesis - We tried everything already - reuse something popular, to get more people to come back. Into Darkness still knocks on this door. So the new ones aren't perfect either.
