Star Trek: First Contact 29 End Credits

[@johntracy72]

A bit of trivia: Star Trek: First Contact is the only Star Trek movie or TV episode where a character actually says the term "star trek". Zephram Cochrane is the one who said it.

[@FloosWorld_AoE]

Well, Q actually mentions the words "star" and "trek" in All Good Things

[@ThePoreproductions]

@Paul Thomas Johnson too bad nobody in Star WARS actually said "Star Wars." Possible missed opportunity for Disney, though.

[@jimtaylor294]

@@ThePoreproductions They use the two seperate words *a lot* though XD.

[@crocodilewrestler]

@@ThePoreproductions Disneys star wars will go down in history for missed opportunities. Garbage.

[@EVAUnit4A]

According to the audio commentary for _First Contact,_ it had been a secret desire of Brannon Braga and Ronald Moore to have a[ny] character say "star trek" during _TNG,_ but they were unable to justify it. (Similarly, the line Lily Sloan says about "'Borg'-? Sound Sweedish...") It wasn't until _First Contact_ where they got their chance, because those two specific words put together in such a way is grammatically awkward in English.

Allow me a moment to explain why this is my favourite Trek movie. I think that, out of all the movies, all the shows, this one best represents the franchise as a whole. Look at the movie and examine it. It can be dark, it can be funny, it can be scary, it can be emotional and thought provoking, it can be thrilling and exciting. And that's why this is my favourite Trek movie - it encapsulates everything I love about Star Trek into one neat little package, serving as a microcosm of the franchise as a whole. And that's why I love First Contact!

[@nathanfitzgerald6651]

Of course, that's why it's my favorite Trek movie as well. It's so robust and hearty, it contains every great quality you would want from an epic Star Trek movie.

My mother truly believed that a day will come when we travel the stars and go on such amazing adventures. Unfortunately she suffered Demetia and advanced Alzheimer's disease in the last two years of her life. She died in '97 after First Contact came out but never got to see it as she was too sick. I hope some day her vision comes true and we travel the stars as I am sure she does now.

[@nathanfitzgerald6651]

I'm sorry to hear that sir. But at least in our lifetimes it's a possibility that us humans will discover alien life in one form or another. So your mother may end up being right after all.

I hope too that mankind someday courageously takes flight to the stars! The beautiful message of Star Trek is that we CAN put aside our petty differences and find the courage to all venture forth as one to explore our universe together... if we really want to bad enough! There will no stopping us!!

[@optimus304]

The day will come, mankind is a slow learning spices and at times we can be distracted by petty issues. But the human mind and spirit continues to grow. One day man will travel to the stars and boldly go where no man, where no one has gone before.

The iconic fanfare comes directly from the original tv series.

[@Jeremytorgersonofficial]

I remember hoping they’d use the TNG theme when I saw this in the theater. They didn’t use it in Generations at all. I thought, “NextGen hit a home run of a movie. They deserve their theme song.” Then this started and not only was it THEIR theme, but the best version of it ever recorded. :)

[@alanedwards8834]

@KeweKrypto 12 also known as the TnG theme.....

[@ThePoreproductions]

I wish that J.J. Abrams used in the reboot films.

[@KalOrtPor]

The Star Trek V end credits was the best version of the theme for me. I also liked the Klingon section which came from The Motion Picture score as well. They played it again briefly in this movie when Worf appears.

[@iceomistar4302]

I believe this was recorded on thd MGM scoring stage, the enx credits cue of Star Trek V was recorded at Fox and sounds much better, more recently John Williams recorded all his sequel trilogy scores at MGM which doesn't have the same sound as Fox and Todd AO or Abbey Rd, Denham in London, when recording a large orchestral score the bigger the scoring stage the better, in LA only Fox has that kind of Concert Hall sound after Todd AO closed down.

...bet PICARD brought you all here in 2023. One of the best Star Trek themes ever is getting a well deserved encore, encore!!! For Annie

[@grovedas]

Here's my interpretation of each movement of this piece of Star Trek music by Jerry Goldsmith: 1. 0:00-1:18. In the 23rd Century A.D., interstellar space travel is a bold and exciting reality--owing to the beloved starship Enterprise--producing unending benefits from the exchange of products and ideas with alien civilizations. 2. 1:19-1:40. However, life wasn't always like this. 3. 1:41-2:38. Think back to the dawn of the warp-engine era, after the devastation of World III, when all of humanity faced starvation, disease, and possible extinction. 4. 1:41-2:38. Nevertheless, a handful of poverty-stricken but courageous survivors labored at a former missile silo, to create history's first warp-capable engine, and free humanity to travel among the stars. 5. 2:39-3:10. We hear, "Six hundred million dead," in some of the melody's mournful notes--emphasizing that the warp-engine project was not guaranteed to succeed, and that humanity itself was not guaranteed to survive. 6. 3:11-4:10. But the first warp-engine test succeeds, attracting the notice of an alien survey-ship. The aliens land at the test-site and make First Contact, commencing a new era of peace and prosperity. 7. 4:11-4:38. Fast-forward to the future, where that early First Contact has led to the eradication of hunger, poverty, and war, all replaced by education, health, wealth, and incredible adventures. 8. 4:39-5:23. And note that humanity is not finished--greater endeavors, greater achievements, greater triumphs await us, because of our invincible intelligence, empathy, sensitivity, power, and courage.

Without a doubt in my mind, the greatest theme and soundtrack from the greatest of all Star Trek movies. The music fits the comparison of Cap. Picard to Cap.

Also, that achieving warp speed would start a new era of peace and exploration.

@@SideSwipeGTA Well that’s what I mean. The orchestrated version, taking out the extra I mentioned, kind of truly emphasizes/accentuates the series/franchise legacy the way it should be/was meant to be heard.

This is One of My Favorite Musical Pieces of All Time. I Can't Even Reasonably Find the Words the kind of Emotions this Masterpiece Fills Me with. It's Glorious and Adventurous and Filled of Wonder. It Fully Expresses the Emotions this Kind of Perilous and Most Pivotal Journey Our Heroes Have Embarked On and We Experienced it with them. I Know, it's Hard to Find the Words But This Music Almost Feels Like it would Be Wrong to Not Say SOMETHING! So I Said Something. Bottom Line, MASTERPIECE, Beautiful, Emotional, Glorious MASTERPIECE!

Makes me so sad how much Star Trek changed from this movie, the last great trek.

[@kd84afc]

Well we still had 3 more seasons of Deep Space Nine after this so not the last great trek at all.

[@rorymoore3992]

enshk79 what do you mean by how Star Trek changed from this movie?

[@NashmanNash]

Well...Insurrection and Nemesis wasted quite a lot of potential,but had actually rather good plots if you ask me,and even something rather new(expect Troy crashing the ENterprise into the nearest object)^^

[@rorymoore3992]

Well at least Picard will be back in a new series.

been listening to the soundtracks of all the trek movies recently and I have somehow found a new appreciation of them due to this. It's been kind of like an epiphany but not. I just see them differently now. Loved them before love them even more now

I love the fact he included some of TOS theme in this. 💖
