    Gentle muppet sounds from a bio-organic machine hive is its own flavor of horror.

        You need to know that you’ve woken a desire for a crossover movie in me so powerful that I will forever live a life of regret that it will never be written.

      The plan to use Hugh as a weapon against them indicates they do not…although there’s always time travel, I suppose.

      One way or another they want to assimilate the entire human interent so I doubt they’re smart enough for backups.

      Considering they are supposed to be past the computer age and at the deep space exploration age, it would be insane to not have tons of redundancies and work arounds, probably very poorly documented ones too. You think borg religion is about trusting old undocumented code no one knows the function of anymore?

        Borg in the middle of a battle, systems corrupted, restoring backups, systems not available for three hours. Then some small ship thinks they know how to defeat the Borg only for their civilization to be wiped out.

        I suspect that there are multiple Borgs at different, distinct levels of advancement and organization, some so far removed from the others that they bare little resemblance.

      They are a collective consciousness, not a computer program.

        I could see the Borg as viewing the non-Borg universe as just something for their feed, though. Something like you can vote for a civilization to be put through Alice In Borderland or whatever, and watch them struggle.

        Yeah… I might be down. Cyberpunk zombies sound like a nice end.

    Florpty hoondee floon is actually pronounced “För hundra gubbar, Borg spelar redan för Sverige, nu blir det bullfest hela dagen.”

    Disney & Paramount need to make this crossover universe happen.
