Movie Trivia/Goofs

  • Geordi tells Zefram Cochrane that by the 24th Century, the Phoenix Missile Complex will become a museum, and will feature a 20-meter-tall statue of Cochrane himself, with his arm reaching out towards the sky "towards the future". Although the statue itself is never shown through the length of this movie, a smaller scale model of that very statue can be seen on a shelf in Capt. Archer's quarters in Star Trek: Enterprise.
  • For inspiration prior to filming, director Jonathan Frakes says he viewed the films Alien, Aliens, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Blade Runner, and Jaws.
  • Robert Picardo doesn't just reprise his character from Star Trek: Voyager, but there is a very subtle reference to the joke that made him earn "The Doctor" role: During his Voyager audition, he was asked to say, "Somebody forgot to turn off my program." He did that, then added, "I'm a doctor, not a light bulb," and got the part. In this movie, he says, "I'm a doctor, not a door-stop." See Voyager trivia.
  • In earlier versions Picard's character was supposed to be the one helping Zefram Cochrane on Earth, with Riker fighting the Borg on the Enterprise. The main story was also focused on the happenings on Earth. After Patrick Hewes Stewart objected to that, the characters of Riker and Picard were swapped. This also resulted in making Picard more of an action hero and the story more focusing on happenings on the Enterprise.
