for me this is one of the best, if not the best scenes in all of tv. final BSG moments are strong too but...na...every i time i watch this i get shivers and tear up O.o after all the adventures and saving the galaxys it´s the simplicity wich makes is so awesome.
I like the way the Doctor gets up for no real reason early in the scene just so she can walk around and shake her sweet moneymaker a bit. Little touches like that kept me tuned in for the duration of the show, even though I found the original series and "Voyager" to be far superior.
@KonkuroPuppetMaster The Sovereign Class is sleeker and more powerful and that the problem. She has a military feel to her (I still like Sovereign Class though). That's not Starfleet. The Galaxy class (just the 6-foot model) looks intimidating and has the explorer feel at the same time.
@Rashaed Wasn't that the point, though? By that time, the Federation was facing threats on multiple fronts with the Borg, the Cardassians, and the Dominion, so emphasis on military power and not exploration with regards to ship-building only makes sense.
@Rashaed Don't forget, around the time the Enterprise-E was built the Federation was having problems with the Dominion. They probably needed a more military like front with their ships in case conflicts broke out.
@suma4m If you watch some of the ep's in the series.. Like any ship, there are different shifts. So when they are off duty another crew takes over controlling the ship, only calling up the senior crew (them) if someone important happens, such as a battle or confrontation. Just like when someone gets injured in battle scenes. Someone comes in from the lift and takes their place. Hope that explains it.
@omniblast Well they're hardly going to say Troi can't play just because she's part-Betazoid are they? xD Besides, Geordi's got more of an advantage than Troi has to be honest, his visor would more than easily allow him to see what cards everyone else has, but instead he decides not to and plays fairly.
Rashaed, this is coming from someone who is slowly getting back into Star Trek after a few years because of an ex... thank you, this was what I needed to know I can never truly lose the need to "Trek among the stars!"... and have a good cry, thank you
From what i understand, the soundtrack of All Good Things is in Crescendo's CD: Best of Star Trek Volume 2. Does anyone know where i can get that CD?
@DrmrGuy1979 Though I'm not a big fan of most of the TNG movies, the characters being different only makes sense if you think about it. This last scene shows how they have become a family, and how Picard regrets not being closer with them sooner. So if anything, the differences they show in the films can just be chalked up to how people change over time. I mean, everyone is very different in this final episode then they were at the start of the series. People change.
@qazmko22 On a ship that size, they're not the only commissioned officers, merely the senior officers. They're the department heads of the main functions of the ship (engineering, medical, command, security, operations) but there are many others that work in those fields. The ship has a compliment of 1,019. From that number, I'm sure they can find replacements for the three duty shifts.
@mgospeed31 They could have even had non-coms. I always disliked the disorganized way they showed the enlisted personnel. Most were simply 'crewmen' with a few being 'first class' and apparently only one chief (O'Brien). Of course, that probably makes him the NCOIC. His friendly banter w/ the senior officers certainly supports this.
If there have been a budget of Enterprise E, that would be awesome, with a holographic screen that fades out to a standard bulkhead when in warp and when the viewscreen is not required. I'll be okay for a CGI, don't you think?
@patrick42h Yeah, I watched the whole movie a couple of times about a couple of months ago, but a TV series based in Enterprise E would be nice. :)
Anyway, I think I'll call myself "technologist" since I'm interested in all that latest in technology and not about the Romulans, the Cardassians, the Borg, and even Q for that matter. I'm like--I'm in for automating my house, such as lights, blinds, TV, home theater, and all other stuff that doesn't have to be so expensive. :)
I always loved their reaction when the door opens and the captain is standing there. They all had like a "oh shit! busted" reaction and then relief when they find out he wanted to join in.
That would be assuming the poker gaes were against the rules. They weren't. Hell, at this point in time, there was no money for them to gamble with. The Federation no longer used money. The chips were literally just chips.
@DrmrGuy1979 I'd say the TNG movies were on par with the series. I agree with whoever wrote the writers are different, not the people. Also, the movie technology was so much better by the time they did the TNG movies.
I liked ST and ST - TNG. I have to admit, I miss this series more. It embodied everything Gene Roddenberry imagined, and more. It's a shame it had to end after 7 seasons.
Several of the actors said in Nemesis, they would tell the director "My character wouldn't act like this", he said he didn't care. The director never watched a single episode of Star Trek, and had been heard on the set saying "I don't care about Star Trek."
The producers just wanted someone who was "new", and he screwed it up. He also kept calling the actors by the wrong name, and thought LaForge was an alien. Several of the actors hated how Nemesis turned out.
@Draknfyre what is awesome though is how even after going through that pile of crap and the obvious turmoil it must have brought with it, the actors (including wil wheaton) have stayed incredibly close and seem like they are all good friends in private as well. you can see it in their convention appearances, the majority of which features them coming in groups. even the family guy episode was recorded together in person. 15 yrs of committing to one story/one franchise will inevitably do that.
Every woman Worf gets involved with dies (K'Ehlyr, Dax, that Bajoran Ensign Sito). That Troi did not get involved with Worf ultimately is why she did not die.
@DrmrGuy1979 I dunno, Picard and Data seem in keeping with the series in Generations and First Contact. Although after that they do become pretty two-dimensional.
Reason why TNG is golden compared to movies is because in the show they didn't have to resort to physical as simple game of battleship was action itself.
@Rashaed I agree with Drmrguy, the characters all changed in the movies, especially Picard. He's not really that likeable in First Contact and *shudder* everything about Nemesis.. ugh, that buggy chase.. Picard as action hero was just awkward.
@peachmanflossboypeac I don't think that's fair to Picard in First Contact to say he's unlikeable just because of his feelings towards the Borg. Those feelings are understandable if you've seen his emotional breakdown in TNG's "Family" where he described how they made him feel. And besides he realised what he was doing and stopped before it was too late. It was just a very human thing to feel just like when Kirk said let the klingons die because some klingons had killed his son.
@Rashaed Youre both right. It was intentional though. This last scene is more then just a send off for the show... it demonstrates the change in the characters, particularly in Picard, who went from stern and professional to more relaxed. Kind of like how in the beginning he hated kids, and towards the end, due in part to Wesley, changed his attitude toward them. Though Star Trek's writers often contradicted their own techno babble, and did a lot of cop outs, they sure did write great characters
@Rashaed "How are they different in the movies? I think the writers are different, not the actors."
Well of course the actors are the same, but the writers changed how the characters act/react to situations. For example, I actually prefer the Diana Troy from the movies.
@Rashaed I think he means that the characters themselves changed to the point of unrecognizability. Some more than others, most definitely. Picard turned from a cultured gentleman to a violent maniac who spouts one-liners and seems to revel in the kill, for instance.
@MrHoppers002 Not true at all, the Enterprise is on a three shift rotation, and Picard is in command during 1 shift, Riker during the 2nd, and Data during the 3rd (night watch). Alpha, Beta, Delta....
im probably going to be completely wrong here, so dont hesitate to correct me, but i thoughgt that in TNG there was no currency,people just volunteered, so what are they gambling with?
@commande They are just playing with chips, no actual currency is being exchanged, it's just for fun. But to address the other part of your question, only Earth has absolved currency, nearly every other power in the galaxy still uses it, with gold pressed latinum being the most common medium of exchange. Additionally, throughout TNG there are many references to humans still using currency, either by mistake or insinuating there is some type of currency they use for trade with non-earth beings.
A lot of people say that it's the Voyager crew that's the most like a family, but I think that it's the Next Generation crew that's the definition of family.
Probably the best ending to all the Trek shows, understated but emotional all the same, TNG was and always will be my favorite "TREK", always have trouble watching this scene cos i no that there will never be a show like it again, truly epic!
This ending is better than the insurrection ending where the Entire Sr Staff beamed down 2 the planet just so they could get a shot of them beaming back up together. Their really was no reason 4 Riker and others 2 go down just 2 say "good by."
What a great scene. The ONLY thing I would have changed was when Capt. Picard was looking at his crew at the 2:00 mark, there should have been a first person view of each of their faces through his eyes as he turned his head to look at them all before dealing. Lots of memories from this show. Classic.
This scene is nice...kinda sad and sweet....Picard's looking at his family, not knowing he'd lose his brother and nephew and the damned ship in a few months.
what made him want to join them?

@MrHoppers002 Not true at all, the Enterprise is on a three shift rotation, and Picard is in command during 1 shift, Riker during the 2nd, and Data during the 3rd (night watch). Alpha, Beta, Delta....

im probably going to be completely wrong here, so dont hesitate to correct me, but i thoughgt that in TNG there was no currency,people just volunteered, so what are they gambling with?
commanderplyers 11 months ago
@commande They are just playing with chips, no actual currency is being exchanged, it's just for fun. But to address the other part of your question, only Earth has absolved currency, nearly every other power in the galaxy still uses it, with gold pressed latinum being the most common medium of exchange. Additionally, throughout TNG there are many references to humans still using currency, either by mistake or insinuating there is some type of currency they use for trade with non-earth beings.

A lot of people say that it's the Voyager crew that's the most like a family, but I think that it's the Next Generation crew that's the definition of family.

Probably the best ending to all the Trek shows, understated but emotional all the same, TNG was and always will be my favorite "TREK", always have trouble watching this scene cos i no that there will never be a show like it again, truly epic!

This ending is better than the insurrection ending where the Entire Sr Staff beamed down 2 the planet just so they could get a shot of them beaming back up together. Their really was no reason 4 Riker and others 2 go down just 2 say "good by."

Around 1:35 Picard: "I just thought that well... if I could have a seat... If there's room..."
Riker: "OF COURSE!, have a seat...B**ch"
10 minutes later picard loses the captains seat cus Riker cheated.

But,those thing that happened,cannot be reversed,so based on that it cannot be changed.Therefore time travel is impossible.

*sigh* time is going by too quickly, I remember when I was little, always looking forward to the newest episode of TNG.

What a great scene. The ONLY thing I would have changed was when Capt. Picard was looking at his crew at the 2:00 mark, there should have been a first person view of each of their faces through his eyes as he turned his head to look at them all before dealing. Lots of memories from this show. Classic.

Poll question: Is "All Good Things" better than any of the TNG movies? My vote is yes. Cast thumbs up or down.

The only thing that would have made this ending any better... would have been to see Ensign Crusher shoved out of an airlock.

This scene is nice...kinda sad and sweet....Picard's looking at his family, not knowing he'd lose his brother and nephew and the damned ship in a few months.
