Star Trek: First Contact @ 30 Years Old

Star Trek: First Contact @ 30 Years Old

Does it hold up? (Spoiler Alert: YES)

The crew of the pod at WE ARE STARFLEET takes a look back at the iconic hit film STAR TREK FIRST CONTACT which premiered 30 years ago in 1996. We ask silly questions such as, "did you like it?" and "is it better than NEMESIS?" FIRST CONTACT has had an outsized impact on the franchise's history, re-introducing the Borg and establishing 'canon events' that have had repercussions that last to this day. Take a break from doomscrolling and join Mike, Ashley, Ian, and Craig for a stroll down memory lane.
