25 great Data (Brent Spiner) quotes

Brent Spiner as Data on Star Trek TNG and his many quotes

[@SuperPuzzler]

Data suddenly laughing hysterically (thanks, Q!) and then going right back to his old self and being somewhat perplexed by the experience is some of the best acting I've ever seen.

[@Cato229]

"When I stroke the beard... thusly, do I not appear more... intellectual?"

[@tripaces_]

kitchenmaiden81 Hero's Worship was one of Data's best episodes, along with Elementary My Dear Data

[@mattevans4377]

As much as they tried to ignore Troi being an empath with saying "I don't know" a lot, that little smile when Data is laughing is a brilliant nod to the fact she's an empath. She's smiling because she can sense the emotion from the laugh (most likely joy).

[@stvbrsn]

That last one really shows how excellent an actor Brent is. In his response to Geordi’s question, he tells the whole story with his eyes and facial expressions before giving any verbal reply.

[@briane5706]

The character of Data works because of the skill and acting talent of Brent Spiner. The opportunities Data gets on the holodeck allows Spiner to show his full range of acting ability. Sherlock Holmes, Cyrano du Bergerac and others show how brilliant he is. Sir Patrick Stewart praises his talent continuously. Also of course, he portrays Data’s brother Lore, and the members of the Soong family.

[@DrJekyll38]

Can't believe there were no lines from "A Fistful Of Datas"!

[@Krystalmyth]

Makes me sad most of the cast of this show outside of Stewart really got many roles outside of it.

His Holmes was really sophomoric, you must allow. You suppose he was going for that?

[@tejo29se]

@@Krystalmyth Even though I saw TNG I didn´t recognize Spiner in Independence Day. I assume it might have been all the make-up he wore as Data and his long hair in Independence Day. It really frustrates me I can´t recognize him. Also in The Aviator, he´s only in it for a short while and I blinked and missed him. I had to see the movie again with my eyes peeled to the screen not to miss him again.

approx 5:06 is a great callback to Spock in the TOS movies. "I believe Sir, if i were human, my response would be 'to hell with our orders'. If I were human." I believe this is #4, the Voyage Home

[@nordfreiheit]

Brent's acting is actually amazing. He never breaks character or misses a beat. He's funny but also compelling. Some of my favorite TNG episodes are Data episodes. Even though it's corny, I love Data's attempts at historical recreation. Sherlock, cowboys, comedians. Every episode he's trying to be more human and learn something about how humans behave. In the process, we always learn a little bit more about ourselves. I can't wait to see him again in ST: Picard

[@k_a_y_l_e_e]

[@mrblank-zh1xy]

Yeah actually any AI that can replicate these levels of cognition might have a clock speed that high but would never "experience" cognition at that speed, not with any technology I can conceive of. Modern computers could be technically be given parameter sets that replicate complex behaviors in a 3d environment, but without serious shortcuts you run out of computational power quick. GPT3 takes days to train a new task using a monster AWS grid. The black ops chatbots that Microsoft and Google have deployed take months to train.

Perhaps he couldn't bear to have his only brother reset like that. Would you want to see your brother returned to an infant minded state?

Lore was switched off. He’s still Lore but deactivated. Resetting his ‘factory defaults’ would be akin to killing him because then Lore would no longer exist. It would be the same if they reset B-4 as well.

Did anyone else notice, at 4:50, that the person who got spot out of the tube was not DATA? He was wearing a grey and black shirt, and then it cut to data holding him while wearing his black and gold. I'm sure this was the cats owner, but you'd think they would have atleast put him in a star trek shirt for christ sake.

it is criminal that brent never won major acting awards for his portrayal as data.
