We are in the early 2000s and every phone comes with a built in nintendo, calculator, GPS, Internet search engine, camera, picture year book, karoke machine, etc. This would be child's play to a FTL civilization.
No, it’s because he realizes that his friend is in rough shape, and will trust Picard to help either of them when going through a breakdown. It’s not the song, it’s the singers.
On a similar theory, my sister and I had a "coma song" agreement. As each other's medical proxy, the way we'd know it was plug pulling time, that the other was truly gone, was having the song sung to you bedside in your coma and not fighting the lure of the deep sleep to sing along. Music grabbing his positronic brain was very human of Data. Hers was the Hallelujah Chorus.
Interesting. I have one with my kids in case of a coma. Mine is to start all the Beatles records in order. If I dont come back by "Her Majesty," it's time to say goodbye.
I am the very model of a futuristic admiral, in matters of space time my knowledge is most capital, I know the economic aptitude of the wiliest Ferengi, and my understanding of star fleet tactics is commenderery.

Picard: One of Starfleet's greatest minds and most brilliant diplomats Also Picard: acts appalled that a native-born Klingon doesn't know of two composers from ancient England
In the 90's when I worked in network television we recieved a tape of the outtakes from the show. Brent Spinner as Data walks up to small sign on the wall of the Bridge, and doing a perfect immitation of Jimmy Stewart from "It's a Wonderful Life" turns to Piccard and says "Look Mary! This ship was made in Bedford Falls."

lol, I know this scene gets criticized, but it's my favorite in the movie. It reminds of of eps where Picard and Data are doing holodeck stuff together, or when Data is performing.
Well that was one of the problems of this film they were treating it like just another Episode of The Next Generation instead of treating like an actual action thriller film like the previous film First Contact
I also like to think that, just before Worf started singing, he realized that this song could be a great Klingon opera when properly translated. I imagine that he might have tried to do just that after the whole adventure was over.
@@Mr.Derogatory316 You can't win with the Trek fan base. Either they cry that its too "pew pew dumbed down action," or it's "booooring." While I don't think Insurrection is a brilliant movie, I can enjoy it as a long form TNG episode with more action that a standard TNG episode. It's an easy and enjoyable watch that does at least have a moral dilemma albeit not a deeply developed one. First Contact, as good as it is, has a very linear goal. Sure, it has the Captain Ahab moment, but that plot line is only there to ensure that Picard is willing to set aside is own personal vendetta against the Borg for the sake of humanity's future. I should not that I am not undermining the importance of it as I think it was serviceably done and relevant to the material at hand. But going back to Insurrection, it carries forward the idea that after the Dominion War, Starfleet was changed. It was willing to push the line of what was moral it meant getting the job done, and it was up to Picard and the TNG cast to remind the Federation of what happens when a superpower brings itself down to the level of petty thugs and ignores the consequences of their actions. Starfleet's willingness to set aside it's ideals to get this radiation blinded them to the plot of the So'na and their motivations. My point, is that despite Insurrection being classified as a "TNG episode stretched into a movie", which historically has not worked, it is actually enjoyable and watchable like "First Contact," and unlike Generations and Nemesis.
@@iamoctonate I certainly agree on your points. Insurrection as a result is a pretty 'watchable' film in a way that Nemesis and Generations weren't. However, I'd point out that often fans can't be trusted (as a group at least) to pin-point why they don't like a show. You can only trust that there is an issue somewhere, and sometimes I find it's very far away from the reasons they proffer up. Put it this way, it's actually really easy to essentially convince oneself of something that is plausible, even if ultimately incorrect. Only with proper discipline and dispassionate analysis, would you avoid such a thing...not things you'd typically find in fan arguments. Labeling Insurrections as a higher budget TNG episode and lacking action movie chops is a plausible argument, even if ultimately flawed and wrong. That has people criticizing scenes like this, and using it as "evidence" that Insurrection is a bad movie, when the real problem lies elsewhere, and is of a different nature. I think the discontent in this case does stem from something a little related. The movie lacks greater stakes that isn't made apparent enough, even if it's a commentary on wartime expediencies. Speaking of which, this movie actually occurs during the Dominion War, not after it. That adds to that feeling. A war is going on, yet Enterprise is dealing with what on the face of it, appears to be "problem of the week" like a TNG episode. Not to mention clearly the aren't on a war footing. While there are many in-universe explanations for this and some are included in the movie, audiences are still presented with significant dissonance. Even without it, it feels like a step down from First Contact. All in all, especially with hindsight, I don't think it's a particular problem, and I've watched Insurrection multiple times and enjoyed it. However, it's a difficult film to shallow first time at the theater, and fans being fans, they're usually not going to give a movie or show much of a second chance....at least until people start playing the nostalgia card and compare it to the current 'garbage show' they hate, whatever that may be. I should also add that any good movie is a sum of it's parts, and just raising the stakes nilly willy, and stuffing a lot of action in it isn't good enough by itself either, or can save other poor writing or direction decisions. Nemesis definitely demonstrated that.
the two seconds that it took for the remote to turn Data off would have been enough for me to shit my pants .... an android diving at me face-first after attempting to shoot me out the sky and push my shuttle into the ground CLEARLY has chosen capital violence 👀👀
Quite easy to erect a level eleventy-two force field around the transporter. And don't forget the open-palm chin slap, which gives any Starfleet officer the ability to knock out ANYTHING, Borg & Klingon included (where necessary for plot progression).

I NEED to see this movie. . . . just to see\hear them SING. But of course, Brent Spiner was in the broadway, "Sunday in the Park with George," about Georges Seurat (SP), painter. I already KNEW Spiner could sing.
The look Picard gives Worf before saying "They're composers, Worf" seems unfair. Picard is disappointed that a Klingon doesn't have a functional knowledge of 19th century, EARTH music personalities?
Where was Worf raised, again? Ah yes! EARTH! By Humans! He also served on the enterprise for years as a senior officer. He was likely subjected to many of Data’s performances, and Picard’s music tastes
Amazing to think the movies for this, were just a few upped graphics and additional sound enhancements, same stuff as the t.v. series, yet had a different feel and felt a bit exciting. Also this situation, explains why having an imagination programmed into ai would allow it to acknowledge moves like this, an attack or attempt to distract. A psychological attack of sorts, on a device that has a programmed psyche.
Honestly this is so true to life. Whenever anyone I know is in crisis, I immediately sing songs that are 300 to 400 years old. Always remember: "There's nowt wrong with a 17th century banger"
Patrick is a classicly trained actor. He's played all the Shakespeare rolls, he's played Othello, in a black cast... and here he's singing to a flatheaded fucking Klingon!
We now know what Picard and his crew of USS Stargazer, Constellation-class, complained about once they were rescued. Hence why all Federation Shuttles come equipped with music scores and plays.
It is so strange that this was 20 years ago. It doesn't feel that long. Time is indeed the fire in which we burn. Also as you can see from the start of the Movie, Brent can sing remarkably well.
This song is used very often in films. i remeber Sideshow Bob on the Simpsons singing this and Sallah in Raiders of the lost arc. i am sure i heard it on some other occasions too, but can not remember those at the moment.
I love how, in all of these space tv shows and movies, that they never strap themselves into their seats; yet rarely fall out of them in no matter how violently the vessels pitch about!
there are a lot of good episodes in that Season. Even though my the best ones come later. it is the other way around with this film. It is a good film, but the best ones came before.
The way Worf looks at Picard when he just starts singing... now he knows how everyone felt on Strange New Worlds in "Subspace Rhapsody", except Picard had a choice...
Sing Worf.
No.

I’d totally forgotten about this. 😂
so you could not sing along?
well that's still reassuringly wonderfully bonkers
Worf is like “I got nothing bro”
I always love that they have a shut off exhaust leak button they can press.
Worf: it's my turn to say no to *you*
Picard practically ordered Worf to sing Kareoke while they were flying. 🤣
“Something my Mother wo…..” Picard series 2 it’s about his Mother 👏
I thought so little, they rewarded me.
By making the ruler of the Queen’s navy.
I ❤ Gilbert and Sullivan. And i love TNG 🥰
Actually Captain Picard, only Sullivan was a composer, whereas Gilbert was a librettist.
As a compromise, Picard let worf sing klingon opera on the way back
We now know what Picard and his crew of USS Stargazer, Constellation-class, complained about once they were rescued.
Hence why all Federation Shuttles come equipped with music scores and plays.
Strange New Worlds wasn't the first Star Trek to solve problems by singing...
It is so strange that this was 20 years ago. It doesn't feel that long. Time is indeed the fire in which we burn. Also as you can see from the start of the Movie, Brent can sing remarkably well.
This song is used very often in films. i remeber Sideshow Bob on the Simpsons singing this and Sallah in Raiders of the lost arc. i am sure i heard it on some other occasions too, but can not remember those at the moment.
I didn't think Worf had it in him, God love him :)
I couldn't love this more!
I love how, in all of these space tv shows and movies, that they never strap themselves into their seats; yet rarely fall out of them in no matter how violently the vessels pitch about!
Good thing they brought the remote control.
Actor portraying Picard is British in real life and a trained Shakespearan actor.
That is Sir Patrick Stewart ... can this be news to you?
When a 70 million dollar movie looks and feels like an episode of TNG S01.
there are a lot of good episodes in that Season. Even though my the best ones come later.
it is the other way around with this film.
It is a good film, but the best ones came before.
It's utterly amazing how bad this looks. It feels more like a fan film.
The way Worf looks at Picard when he just starts singing... now he knows how everyone felt on Strange New Worlds in "Subspace Rhapsody", except Picard had a choice...
Jean-Luc looks shocked anyone would not know Gilbert and Sullivan.
