You could almost see a sort of stiff upper lip on Data's face when they leave, I like to imagine that he experienced anger or something at the idea that Soron was going to kill 230 million people for his on selfish pursuit and they figured it out. Idk lol
Patrick Stewart, in a more-or-less spherical room (with a central platform extending out into the middle), which allows him to see into a great expanse? Talking with a protege of sorts who sometimes has difficulty managing his emotional states? Nope, doesn't ring a bell.
Discussions about story and characters aside, I would love to have one of these stellar cartography systems on my computer. Apps like Celestia or Google Maps are about as close I can get, I suppose...
@Taicleis That was true 25-40 years ago. Now, it's characters, then story. If you get the viewers to like/love the lead character(s), your halfway home for a big winner. Look at Independence Day. Good example. Tell me without Will Smith that movie still succeeds. Never would of happened.
Characters, story, and sound are central to ANY movie's value. None of those things make a good Sci-Fi movie - they make good movies, but not specifically Sci-Fi.
What makes great Sci Fi? Interesting ideas. Scientific speculation. Plausible explanations for incredible things. Without that - it's just fantasy. Eg. Star Wars.
The Point is?...None of this crap really matters. Why do we really like one sci-fi movie over another? 3 things. # 1. Characters. If the audience doesn't connect with your characters, it sucks. #2 The story. This importance is well proven, by the Star Wars prequels. #3 Music and sound effects. Notice I don't have computer graphics in the top 3 reasons. Wonder why? I'll let the community figure that one out for themselves.
Nope that won't fully work. The star gets destroyed, along with the inner planets. Soran would have to crash the Bird of Prey into the "half eaten by anti matter" Nexus ribbon and the movie tells us that trick ends in destruction. Also, it's course would of been severely corrected. Heck, I guess only God could pull off this scenario. LOL
Oh yeah, I forgot. It's Soran not Zorin. Ok, let's put our genius together. How does Soran destroy the star realistically? Hmm. Ok I got it. While aboard the Klingon ship he launches a torpedo containing pure anti matter, which will only release, when it reaches the core of the star. Just before release, they go to warp drive and escape before the anti matter would of consumed them.
@shoofirbin...I agree. I like 3 scenes from this movie. #1. When Kirk saves the Enterprise B. 2. This computer analysis scene with Picard and Data. 3. When Kirk and Picard meet in the Nexus. The rest of this movie sucks. Generations had potential, but it has too much stupid dialogue and the ending is just retarded. Zorin's character needed more development also.
even though this movie kinda sucked, i always liked this scene. it shows the father-son aspect of picard and data's relationship. data's sort of whining and doesn't want to go on, but when picard lays down the law, something clicks and he realizes he can and will go on.
I might be wrong, but I have listened to this closely several times. After Picard says "that is an order, commander!" It sounds like Data uses a contraction. He kind of mumbles and it sounds like he says "yes sir, I'll try." Again I might be wrong, but that is what I am hearing.
It's about humanity and emotions, service and courage in it's best forms. And there is no music or sth. just well performed by the both characters. Amazing. Data is often the most human...
[from timecode: 0:26 to 3:24 may be the greatest scene of the TNG-movies and totally underrated...] Thank you for uploading.
Give me tons of food, bed, a bathroom..I can spend whole week in stellar cartography room.

I can't believe there isn't an upload of the scene where Picard finds out his nephew and brother died in an accidental fire. Maybe its too much.
