I’m not sure why everyone seems surprised that ST:Nemesis is such a turd. Anyone who thinks that John Logan can write has obviously not seen the Time Machine (went to the premiere. even free and with free popcorn and soda, it wasn’t worth seeing – although it did serve as a sad reminder of the mediocrity that gets churned out regularly by the studio system. polished turds, but turds nonetheless and an embarrassment to all the craftsmen and artisans who had to work on the production of the film. what a waste of effort) knows better. Even if you liked Gladiator, you had to admit that the script was passable at best. This is the guy who wrote Bats!
