Picard draws the line

[swordhunter12]

0:39 Yes there was! There was a way to save you wasn't there?

[letsgetverydrunk]

i am really ashamed to say that south park brought me here... :(

[CabinetSquirrel]

He broke his little ships.

[DrVonNostrand]

reported for CP.

[MrCrystalm8]

dis is the best pump up scene ever, makes me wanna kill anyone who's ever fucked with me

[lonstar70]

"You broke your little ships.."



[C00LX100]

I feel like he is talking about religion 1000 years NO MORE line must be drawn here!!!

[SlugsPublicAccount]

@C00LX100

>Religion

>1000 years

You know, I generally try to ignore stupid Youtube comments, but fuck, that really killed my braincells.

[C00LX100]

@SlugsPublicAccount I was thinking about the dark age it lasted 1000 years and it is time when church had the biggest power...

[Bubbapug1985]

@C00LX100 Absolutely right. The church withheld technological advancements and they want people to be slaves and be fearful. Moreso now it is going the opposite direction (more technology less religion). For the better.

[C00LX100]

@Bubbapug1985 TRUE! NO MORE! XD

[BJmag06]

Dont think she has to go number 2 anymore...

[CLF4L]

Picard took out the queen at the end too.

[bibthebolder1]

Q: Flowers for John-Look pikard!

[lonstar70]

@bibthebolder1 Good one!



[buffbeer1]

He's talking about the NDAA!!!

[tmande2nd]

Somewhere Q is watching this and getting a good, long, and deep laugh at this.

"Evolved species Picard? I dont think so"

[89Obscure]

"Mr Picard, I think somebody scratched your car."

"I'll make them PAAAAAY for what they've done!!"

[horaciosi]

(1:23) "We already painted my room"

[misinglink15]

Fetch me my horse...alright then...huyyyyyaaaaa.!

[NeuroManson]

And Picard just went full Shatner. Sad since I love this line and this movie so much.

[thedoom523]

That sonic screwdriver

[AndrewDeLong]

@thedoom523 Eh...wrong sci-fi series dude.

[MegaSpock78]

NNOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

[angrydead]

1:44

[PowerCookie1]

this is picard's kkkhhhhhaaaaannnnnn

[roshanetw12]

sheldon says it better

[bigchart333]

the greatest minute fifty in film history

[nothri]

Oh, I get it. At first I thought he was talking about the borg. Really, though, he's talking about putting a line across his ready room floor to avoid breaking that glass case ever again. He wants to be able to clearly see when he can go this far and no further...so he doesn't break the glass.

[chibz92]

We're out of cool whip?!

[TickTockVideos]

randy marsh

[DUCREE12]

prof X dies No NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[dreamingWisdom]

@DUCREE12 Damn it, why did you have to spoil X-Men for the thousands of people that are going to read this?

[nothri]

@dreamingWisdom To burrow a line from SFdebris, it is impossible to spoil X-men 3, because is it already too vile. You can no more spoil it than you can spoil a barrel full of piss.

[s10dlka]

eh Sheldon Cooper does it better! :P

[mrkoolmarky]

utterly brilliant!!!! :D

[joe89nufc]

1.10 Enterprise D

[Borgcommander]

BEST SCENE IN THE MOVIE

[MrImastinker]

Picard>Kirk.

YEAH, I SAID IT!

[eastwing329]

like SF Debris said, somewhere Q is recalling what Picard said to him in Q Who about humanity being evolved and laughing to himself, "evolved indeed."

[highwind8124]

Picard is actually quoting Job 38:11 -

"‘This far you may come and no farther; here is where your proud waves halt’"

It's God who's talking.

The line also got quoted in the Da Vinci Code movie. It's a good line.

[reachforacreech]

in a tense situation luke keeps his head on a fuckin swivel

[TheMan3579]

"Captain Ahab has to go hunt his whale." I love that line.

[A203D]

@TheMan3579 I love that too, its delivered with Borg like perfection. she does a fantastic job in this film.

[TheMan3579]

@A203D Borg like perfection huh? Interesting way of putting but yeah pretty much.

[KendrydMorral]

ROFL..... 1:05 south park

[alexthelizardking]

8 people won't blow up the damn ship

[MichaelMaira1]

Jean-Luc as a geometry teacher....

"The line must be drawn HERAAH! this far, NO FURTHER!"

[HoraceGoodspeed]

Patrick Stewart gives me chills

[neuronsactivated]

Ms. Woodard and Mr. Steward act the hell out of this scene.

[shafta99]

make them pay jean-luc,

[windryderlv]

Well admit it or not, but She did a damn good job too!

[minglis88]

"nooooooooooo's" are always so cheesy. but i have to say, this one was perfect, it fit and didn't feel cheesy. this and rise of the planet of the apes pulled it off better than anything i think.

[EduardoTVideos]

Don't worry about his ship's models: if any is broken, he would simply replicate it.

[Kapila]

Captain Ahab? Wasn't Patrick Stewart in Moby Dick as Captain Ahab?

[mattboesch8907]

@Kapila yes he was. in was in 1998 that version of moby dick came out with Patrick stewart as Ahab.

[rizer912]

or Obama chewing out the GOP

[Finalzero]

This must be Steve Jobs last line to Android!

[becauseyoucan1]

Jean-Luc blow up the damned ship!

Nooo!! Nooooooo!!!

I will not sacrifice the Enterprise, we've made too many comprimises already. Too many retreats.

They invade our space, and we fall back.

They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back.

Not again!

The line must be drawn here!

This far, no further!!

And I will make them pay for what they've done!

[AllBobsAllTheTime]

"The line must be drawn HYEEAH!!!!" Sounds like he attended the Virginia School of Acting.

[TheSourcealpha]

thewinekone did it better!

[legofilms4fun]

This is why he got Knighted by the Queen . . .

[americanpsycho93]

Thumbs up if South Park brought you here.

[WarriorBoy]

@americanpsycho93: SP did bring me here, and the use of this is hilarious in that, but Stewart is a fucking legend for realz.

[Esialpha]

that's awesome acting

[MrRocksW]

fucking hate first contact so much.

[MrJonesywales]

@MrRocksW dude....why?you like insurrection more?

[MrRocksW]

@MrJonesywales in truth man I don't like any of them. have a look at redlettermedia's review and you'll see what I mean

[Scorponok2009]

Patrick Stewart did play Captain Ahab in one version of Moby Dick.

[jungledrumnbass4ever]

patrick stewart what a class actor!

[ShiniGorky187]

THE LINE MUST BE DRAWN HEAH!!!!

[Muglosx]

Wouldn't the crew come storming into the room if they heard there captain yell "NOOO!" and glass shattering?

[mikeysrose]

Someone needs up upload the entire scene!!

Superb work by Patrick and Alfre. Best scene in the movie.

[linkuei691]

epic picard!!! kirk can suck it

[CambridgeHeights]

Out of character. Roddenberry is rolling in his grave.

[phuturephunk]

@CambridgeHeights I dunno if I agree with that. You have to keep in mind that, in context, Picard has seen countless people die because of the Borg. This also took place after Wolf 359. I'm all for his stoic professionalism, but every person has a breaking point and to lose a second ship to the Borg..to be faced with their inevitability once again and be seemingly helpless to fight it without acquiescing to it (blowing up the ship) would turn even the hardest man crazed.

[Trancelotics]

@CambridgeHeights I agree with phuturephunk. Ok, maybe a sci-fi show ain't the place to debate realism, but a character which experiences no crisis of stoicism doesn't make any sense. This whole scene makes Picard human: any person who prides himself on moral objectivity is bound to have a breakdown at some point. The whole point of the scenes thereafter is showing him confronting that breakdown and reversing it.

[CambridgeHeights]

@Trancelotics Picard remained calm in other nearly identical situations. Even after he was assimilated by the borg her refused to infect the collective with a virus that would lead to their extinction.

[arkraven123]

@CambridgeHeights

But he did so on moral grounds, he realized that by not taking on the Borg now countless lives would be lost. He had to draw the line.

[CambridgeHeights]

@arkraven123 ah balony. Did you even watch the movie? He was doing it for revenge. He was playing Capt. Ahab from Moby Dick. Completely out of character. A disciplined, moral, intellectual captain would be 'too boring' for a mass audience, so they change him. It's a disgrace.

[arkraven123]

@CambridgeHeights

Yes he wanted revenge but do you blame him? I mean after the locutus incident and the wolf 359 and even the Borgs casual assimilation of species. Eventually it had to hit a point where they could no longer retreat and watch the borg continue their horror. Its not out of character, suffice to say it might be exactly his character as somebody here said before every man has his breaking point this was picards.

[Trancelotics]

@CambridgeHeights I contend it's unrealistic to think that someone - even Picard - could maintain his mental discipline indefinitely. No person in real-life, no matter how upstanding, will never experience no lapse in resolve or inner strength. What about, as another example, the torture scenes Picard had to endure under the Cardassians? There's a reason why those episodes are considered amongst the best ever! They highlight how, under great pressure, any person can potentially break.

[LoneRookRS1]

@CambridgeHeights Watch the episode "family", TNG S4 episode 2 it shows how the borg affected him.

[specie8470]

@CambridgeHeights Even Starfleet got after Picard for not destroying the Borg.

[iLuVjEsSeMaCaRtNeY]

does anyone have written out text/script of this whole scene??

[VirginMaryAxe]

This is one of, if the not the best scene in cinema :D

Also, can anyone tell me where i can watch episodes of Star Trek online? In reasonably high quality?

[GizmoGardenia]

I would say infamous speech

[mrredhatter]

Someone other than myself needs to make a montage of all the popular references to this scene. I think family guy had one.

[benjatron1701]

picard's no! is way better than vader's

[TheSilverPhoenix100]

@benjatron1701 he is now after how bad they fucked up vaders character its hard to look at his as a badass and not as a whining little shit

[OmarAlQaseer]

@benjatron1701 : That's because Patrick Stewart says "No!" like a man and not like some volcano burned Hayden Christensen with a mask over his face.

[MrWINNSLAW]

"He gets my vote!"

[jmaley3]

George Lucas has made more changes to the original trilogy.

No. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ButtersStotch7000]

@jmaley3 Us SW fans need to stand up to Lucas.

He alters entire scenes, and we fall back. He CGIs whole characters, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here, this far, no further!

And we will make him pay for what he has done!

[lnspttmn]

note how Captain Garrets Enterprise was the only one destroyed :P

[Seattlecarnut]

This was my favourite part of the movie, ST First Contact.

[peterapgov1]

This gives me chills. Every fucking time.

[Porly62]

Picard: The gentleman soldier of the 24th century...

The Ahab-reference...the grim rage...

Picard>>>>Kirk...ALWAYS!

[Die1101]

You'd think 24th-century glass would be better ;-)

[Artardism]

GET OUT!! OR HWAT?!? Wait, what did you say? I just said or hwat! Why are you saying it weird? Hwat are you talking about? THERE! Say what. Hwat. Thats not how you say it! HWHAT THE HELL IS YOUR DE... NO!! NOOOOOOO! *Smashes glass*

[flobogirl6]

I probably watch this scene every other week because it's so epic.

[bregolingo]

E P I C

[Startmenu4]

This is like the most out of character thing ever.

[sondano]

@Startmenu4 not really he jumped his brother too remember? Picard can lose it if he really wants to

[Gencoil]

7 people didn't know where to draw the line.

[zZHZRDRemiixXx]

This just gave me a boner.

[scottyelf]

No! NOOOOO! Best moment ever.

[Irken45]

this really makes me wanna watch star trek all day, i might just do that

[shafta99]

you broke your little ships. see ya round ahab!

[shafta99]

funny also because one of picards favorite books is moby dick!

[specie8470]

@shafta99 whats even funnier is Patrick Stewart latter goes to my Captain Ahab in the movie Moby Dick.

[shafta99]

@specie8470 thats dycnotomy there. lol

[eriquerique]

...fade out to black, cut back to Kodak Theatre with a shot of Sir Patrick Stewart sitting in the front row smiling humbly, and the host announces the next best actor nominee.

[lestef23]

They invade our space, and we fall back.

They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back.

Not again, the line must be drawn HERE!

THIS far, NO further! And IIIIII will make them PAY for what they've DONE!

[lestef23]

Who can dislike this?

[TheB345T007]

@lestef23 The borg?

[MadFae]

You left out the best part... when she says "you broke your little ship."

[TheMultiGunMan]

★★★★★

This is the most epic scene from any of the Star Trek movies.

[piratebri]

The funny thing is, Patrick Stewart played Ahab in Moby Dick.. and he was awesome too lol

[Drancks]

This is actually my least favorite monologue from Picard. But that's cause I didn't like this movie. :X

[Beowolf8312]

Notice that the broken ship is NCC - 1701 - D

[playgrrrr]

"This is not about revenge… I will make them pay for what they've done"

[MrImastinker]

What a ham!r

Suddenly, Kirk awoke from his grave... "I have felt a great disturbance..."

[666SLAY3R666]

FUCKING love this part!

Greatest show, amazing writing!

suck on THAT  star wars...

[ndalum75]

@666SLAY3R666 Haven't seen the originals, have we?

[666SLAY3R666]

@ndalum75

HUURRR DEEEERPADERP.

Yeah I have. Fuck that Brain Dead shit.

[ndalum75]

@666SLAY3R666 The original Star Wars trilogy is "Brain Dead Shit" Please excuse me while I laugh myself to death. Hehehehe....hahahaha.......HAH­AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

[666SLAY3R666]

@ndalum75

You sounds pretty mad though.

[666SLAY3R666]

And let the butt hurt flow through you.

[JohnnyC133]

There's a little sign under the display case: IN CASE OF TRAUMA INDUCED RAGE, BREAK GLASS AND LITTLE SHIPS.

[IcingINtheshower]

@JohnnyC133 ur such a fucking low self esteem twat.

[Toolshed48]

Who else besides Stewart could turn the word "here" into a two-syllable word? Very impressive.

[txmoney]

Terrible movie...as was all the Next Gen films.

[Superiorer]

Best line ever.

[brian577]

Now this is Star Trek at it's finest. Abrams has got nothing on First Contact.

[whoiscuriousgeorge]

2.35:1 & 2.40:1 video stretched to 1.78:1 is never a good thing. The actor's heads start looking like eggs. Great scene though.

[ayoshutduff]

O_O woah

[Beastmonkey]

LOL WHAT IS AN ASPECT RATIO?

[CommandoDude]

The stupid thing is that they're both right. Picard is self delusional in his "Humanity is more evolved" bs, but he's not some murderer, Linch was lost and killing him was mercy.

[GeneralRenz]

@CommandoDude

How is that stupid? I think one of the major themes of Star Trek is that any one perspective is not necessarily the "correct" one.

[ramv36]

Huh, never noticed that Picard has a sonic screwdriver in this scene....

[illumined1]

0:59 SLAP!

[mofolarry]

1:04 the woman's voice is actually the Captain's performing as a ventriloquist.

[nano4288]

It's a shame that TV comes in a distance second to film when discussing actors. Despite some exposure on film he is vastly overlooked among the list of great actors. It's scenes like this that make me appreciate him even more.

[Zaknaberrnon]

hehe he did play ahab :)

[UnknownXV]

@MaestroMike673 Then he would serve himself some tea too.

[MrHoppers002]

dude kirk would just punch through the glass. 

[refuckulate420]

@MrHoppers002

No he wouldn't. 

[IcingINtheshower]

@MaestroMike673 yer a fucking a loser

[tmelch66]

6 people have been assimilated into the collective

[disturbedfan1100]

-Jean-Luc blow up the damn ship!

-No!*goes insane* NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

god i love that scene :D

[JWolf56]

Is it sad I've got this monologue memorized from the moment PIcard starts yelling, "NO"? I love this scene!!!

[ReiSilver]

You cut off before the end!

"You broke your little ships..."

[Zoidberg312]

Patrick Stewart is awesome! He can do great serious roles, like that of Picard, and he can be a riot as well. I love him on American Dad, saying lewd things such as (to a stripper) "choke me while I brush your hair!"

[williamskidfears]

"I am such an idiot...for being in this shitty excuse for a Star Trek movie."

[Joecbg100]

@williamskidfears How dare you............

[lancecryor]

@williamskidfears I suppose you could make a better movie.. out of your own... extensive experience O_o

[1479242009]

replace the term borg with liberal democrats,,,,they limits and rights and we fall back......they strip us of a right to keep and bear arms and we fall back....not again the line must be drawn here and no farther and we will make the libs pay for what they have done

[williamskidfears]

@1479242009 Why did this comment receive so many negative votes, when the TNG franchise is all about jingoistic, anti-democratic, misogynistic values.

To paraphrase the opening line of "Education For Death:" "What makes a Trekkie? How does he get that way?"

[element064]

@williamskidfears which forum did you get those fancy words off from? TROLOLOLOLOLOL

[1479242009]

@williamskidfears the borg are a plague......just like collectivism in all of its forms.

[arianaalioth]

Imagine Picard as an architect.

"The line mus tbe drawn HERE! this far, NO FARTHER!"

[arianaalioth]

just hearing the word 'BULLSHIT" on a Star Trek movie is like....wow

[bwm5150]

good old Randy Marsh lol

[BlackValkyire]

awesome - great acting.

[vidwatcher31951]

This scene & when he got into it w/ Worf on the bridge :)

[TheAdam159]

This is second only to KHHHHAAAAAAAAAN as the best and most epic Trek scene ever!
