Star Trek: Nemesis Ending Fan Edit - Data's Farewell (with Deleted Scenes)

So... one of the things I was unsatisfied with in Star Trek: Nemesis was the ending, which I felt could have been as powerful as Spock's sacrifice in The Wrath of Khan. However, on the DVD, there were some deleted scenes that could have made the ending feel more complete. So, I decided to do a project of giving a more satisfying ending to the film and show the characters reflecting upon Data's death.
Changes I made include:
- Added one deleted scene titled, “Cleaning Out Data’s Quarters," which shows Geordi and Worf- well, cleaning out Data's quarters. Geordi finds Data's emotion chip, and realizes that Data had made the decision to sacrifice himself on his own. In the middle of this scene, I included a little montage of clips from the previous films.
- Added Picard’s speech from when he talks to B4 as voiceover, and Jerry Goldsmith’s track, “A New Ending”
- Added a second deleted scene titled, “Advice for the New First Officer," which has Riker pranking the Enterprise's new Number One.
- Added Jerry Goldsmith’s track from The Motion Picture, titled “A Good Start,” and a title card that says, “The human adventure continues…” over the final seconds, as an homage to the ending of The Motion Picture.

I always loved how LeVar responded "I'll take care of it, Captain." I also loved Stewart's acting when it takes him a moment to realize there's no view screen when they're being hailed. It's the little things.

Geordi should have gotten more screen time showing how Data’s death affected him...That was his best buddy

[@nexy12]

I agree

[@frankb__431]

@@nexy12 The Director knew nothing about TNG, so even the long and close friendship between Data and Geordi had gone missing completely. You see the footage concentrating on Picard, Troi being the stereotypical "woman breaking down", but Geordi, Data's best friend for ~15 years at the time is depicted more like the colleague who feels sympathetic to the situation rather than showing grief, disbelief or any level of despair. That role is solely left to Picard. An while that would also fit Picards more fatherlike relationship with Data and the acting of Sir Patrick especially in the bridge-scene is phenomenal, the fact that Geordi, and Riker as well, seem barely affected at all just breaks the scene for me. Riker consoles Troi while Geordi feels for Picard's loss. But that demotes a significant part of the core-family to innocent bystanders. And for that reason (and others) the movie does not work for most Star Trek fans. Just remember that ridiculous out-of-the-blue rape scene ...

[@darrelltucker9968]

@@frankb__431 as clearly well written as your insightful comments are, I would like to add that it was also strikingly obvious to me that the director seemed to work with no sense of background knowledge of characters specific to the Star Trek franchise (TNG) and their relationships with each other. This movie was presented as a big screen science fiction action film - and unfortunately NOT a swan song for the deserving fans of the even more deserving crew, of the Enterprise.

@@darrelltucker9968 Sad cus even for Data's "Final scene" in Picard Season 1 we don't see anything of Geordi. Meanwhile still waiting on Picard Season 2 and 3 to give more proper closure to these characters stories that we deserve by having them each reprise their roles for an episode.......

I always hated that they didn't give Levar Burton more screen time during this part. I feel like he was Data's closest friend really, and he shows it in his emotions. But it seems like they didn't show enough of it, and sold him short. Just when Riker is talking about the first time he saw Data, and Geordi looks up tearfully.... that right there is where I lost it in the theater.

I'm the extra who enters the shot at 9:13 crossing left to right in front of Picard. I was on set for about 3 days. On the day this was shot, Patrick Stewart and the director got into an argument about how the film should end. Patrick had ideas about featuring some of the younger people on set (to indicate that they were the future, I guess), and I remember a very heated exchange that followed where the director basically said that it was his film and he was in charge of decision making.

[@HoneycuttVideos]

That sounds a lot like something Stuart Baird would do. I do still envy that you got to see for yourself an example of good ol' Patrick Stewart trying to make the movie better.

Nice job with the edit and quality--I found your upload by searching for the highest resolution I could find on youtube for the deleted scenes.

From Picard witnessing a major injustice an turning renegade, to the crew finding out about it and deciding to stick to their morals instead of blindly listening to authority, to Data experiencing childrens play to gain something towards his goal of understanding and approaching humanity I feel it pretty much fits into the TNG-Saga. I just feel that it does not work as well for the general audience because it is too much in-universe.

[@brendancaulfield970]

That scene of Worf and Geordi in Data's quarters was absolutely EVERYTHING. Geordie got shafted in the theatrical cut - HIS reaction to Data's sacrifice should have been the emotional heart of the film - and a silent scene of two friends combing through the physical (and televisual) history of Data's life moved me to tears. Your music choice elevated that sequence from a bit of discarded footage to what should have been the crux of the film. Well done. The familiarity of the items in his quarters and the appearance of Spot would have been a wonderful salve in the theatrical cut to a film that seemed to largely be ignorant of the characters' histories.

[@DesertWolf392]

Glad these scenes exist. They tie the ending of Nemesis and the Picard S3 well. Riker's loyalty to Picard never once failed. Even when he was presented with I think 2 separate ships to command. Him getting the Titan, however long it was definitely held off until he felt he was ready. Georgie definitely needed more time, he was closer to Data than the other crew members.

Wow 😳 that’s actually a better ending. Thank you 🙏🏻 for this, some brilliant editing. Why couldn’t Stuart Baird come up with a ending like this? Seeing B4 again actually detracts from Data’s loss and somehow cheapens it. This is a much better ending with genuine emotion going through data’s things in his quarters and accepts data’s loss with conviction by giving the audience time to grieve and reflect on who data was. Ownerless Spot sells it at the end. Good job 👏 and thank you for this.

[@Rometiklan]

It's bizarre because Baird used to be an editor himself and edited some great movies. As a director with an editor's eye, you'd think he'd have the vision to put together something the fans would want to see.

[@MrNaxman]

When Spock died in Star Trek 2 they did not show Spock again after he died. it gave real stakes and a genuine feeling of loss with it. They needed to do the same with Nemesis, seeing B4 so suddenly destroys the films need for the audience to come to terms with Data’s death. In this edit you actually have a chance to actual miss data, to realize he is gone and not coming back. This ending gives you that real sense of loss that the ending of the theatrical release sorely needed to sell it. Stuart Baird clearly does not understand how to end a film like Star Trek with real stakes and consequences needed make a real impact with filmgoers. A brilliant edit as I said. I wish they would change the ending to this as it’s much more emotional and memorable as it should be.

[@MMuraseofSandvich]

@@Rometiklan Couple of possibilities: 1. He wasn't interested in Trek or didn't like the script, and only saw this as a job to get paid. Not very professional if that's the case. 2.

These are the powers-that-be in a movie studio, and sometimes they think they know more about filmmaking than the people who do it for a living.

In Nemesis it was clear that the only reason for B4 was so Data could come back if he wanted to.

My only issue with the movie was whomever wrote the script, did not research very well. There were many points where information in the movie contradicted established information. The most obvious is when Picard is talking with his new first officer about their mission to Deneb, stating that its where no one has gone before. In truth, the very first mission of the Enterprise D was to Farpoint Station, located in the Deneb system.

[@lanarkorras4411]

"Place" might refer to a place within the Deneb system. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but I think this is what they were going for. Either way, this ending is leagues above the original B4llsh*t - well done!

I think visiting a station within the system and exploring the entire system are different enough from one another, so I don’t mind it. And, Picard looking at Worf when he says, “It should be interesting” could be seen as an indicator that he remembers Deneb from the Farpoint mission.

[@chrissonofpear1384]
