I don't think there was anything that was used as frequently as the Klingon theme, but I've always thought of the music that goes with the Borg has a particular character. For example, in Best of Both Worlds, when Picard faces the image of the Borg cube approaching in the viewscreen. After he says "magnify", the music comes in. That's what I think is the most Borg-ish music. I think the music in First Contact has some similarities too perhaps.
Thanks. I love the Borg themes too, but for this I was trying to do the unspeakable and put Star Wars music to Star Trek video.
I wish some ambitious 3D animator would try to animate the whole battle of Wolf 359. That would be something. Maybe I'll do it one day if I get a lot better at animation.
Good question. Partly it was just to screw with the die hard Trekkies and Star Wars fans who can't stand the other one. I don't like it when the fans get tribal and bitch at each other. It seems to me that anyone who loves the message of Star Trek should be open to different things. As the vulcans say "infinite diversity in infinite combinations."
Also I thought the choral nature of the Star Wars music lent itself well to the Borg.
the answer why they use force is ovious. They are perfection all other life needs to be perfect. They are better all life must join them and improve themselves. If they dont their being irrational. Collective minds dont bring compassion and reason those are singular concepts. A collective mind sees only threat non threat and food and to the borg all ships and personal are food.
Perhaps, but I'm not so sure that linking minds would create a malevolent collective consciousness. It seems to me it would be capable of greater compassion and reason than the sum of it's parts. I've often wondered what the origin of the Borg was, and why they tended towards force.
Sure, but my username will be there in the top right. You might want to look around for a copy without that there. I don't mind if it's there, but might look odd if it appears suddenly when you edit in those pieces.
Thanks to everyone for your positive comments and favouriting. I may be banned soon for bullshit reasons but I'll be back under the account inquisit0r. See my latest video for more details.
It's called "Hardcase's retribution is not coming... but he said it was". He's not going to try to get me banned any more, even though he said he would. So there's no real danger now. Thanks.
Yeah I agree. In hindsight, maybe I should have mixed in some other music too. I didn't expect it to be so long when I started it and I was even considering moving onto First Contact, but that would have been too much. Thanks.
Some scenes from "Q Who" (series 2 episode 16), most of it is from "The Best of Both Worlds" (series 3 episode 26 and series 4 episode 1) and the battle of Wolf 359 with Sisko is from "Emissary" the first episode of Deep Space Nine.
very good video, love the episode clips you used, "Q who" "the Best of both worlds" and "the Emissary" at least i think those are all the episodes it showed, and "Duel of the Fates" fit it quite well.
Thanks, I just wish I could have thought of a decent title. I couldn't think of anything that fit well so "Borg music video with star wars music" was the best I could do. I hate titles.
A good selection of Borg scenes of series 2&3 of STTNG.
I liked the way they put the Saratoga into the battle of Wolf 359, but where was Admiral Hansen, when he tried to communicate to Enterprise. I still believe that Admiral Hansen was aboard the USS Melbourne.
During Hansens's hail to the enterprise from the battle, he states that the fight isn't going well and fleet is attempting to withdraw and regroup. The Melbourne is the first ship destroyed by the cube (excelsior class). Hansen must have been alive until the fight had progressed somewhat in order to state that the fight isn't going well, and so couldn't have been aboard the Melbourne, since that ship didn't have the chance to see the battle progress at all.
While Hansen is in communication with the Enterprise, you can see that the ship is under fire because of the way he is rocking about. In the scene where the Melbourne is destroyed, only a single shot from the cube is shown. Also after Locutus's opening hail, the Saratoga is ordered to ready weapons and advance on the cube. It's possible that this happened during the regrouping action, but then why would Locutus hail at this point? What evidence is there that Hansen was on the Melbourne?
Haha no worries. It's remarkable how self-consistent Star Trek manages to be considering the number of different writers over such a long time. So much so that trekkies can debate about what <i>really</i> happened.
Yeah, I know :-D. Sometimes I'm convinced I'm correct on some things.
I have been trying to write a book on the Earth-Romulan War, and it's not easy with such little information. How about this for a theory: The Romulans infiltrated Enterprise, NX-01, and removed the Xindi vortex technology, and eventually adjusted/modified to create an artificial singularity - a black hole, to power their Warbirds.
Did the Enterprise get hold of vortex technology? I thought they just used vortexes generated by other ships. Is there an established link between Xindi vortexes and quantum singularities? I think the Romulans never used anti-matter, which is why they used forced black holes. Remember the singularity used by the Romulans is only a power source, not a method of bending space itself.
You remember they boarded Degra's ship, they might not have got the technology, but i bet they downloaded it with the rest of the database to gt as much information on the Xindi as possible.
Imagine if the Borg could assimilate a force user, would that drone have force powers? Would the entire collective learn how to use the force, combining their collective will?
If that was the case, the Borg would know telekinesis, telepathy, surely one or two species would know certain skills. So it must be suppressed someohow.
You're mistaken. It's a mix of the Duel of the Fates from Episode One and the techno remix version of the same song. Trust me I made it and I know carmina burana, they're just both choral.
nicely done! but isn't that against the law? combining star trek and star wars?

theinquisitor 4 years ago
I doubt it. On 'Emissary' DS9, the Melbourne (Excelsior), Saratoga (Miranda), 1 Oberth-class, 1 Ambassador-class, 1 Nebular-class attacking the Cube -- others obviously destroyed.
Melbourne was 1 of 5 who passed and survived, suffered damage, came back to attack.
Hansen told Riker that the fight is not going well, ordering a withdraw-and-regroup -- but the saucer section is blown -- and then cut off.
NCC1701J 4 years ago
