I cannot imagine how many takes they must've had to do to get that scene right, especially considering that Jonathan Frakes most likely couldn't hold himself together during this part.
This scene shows just how perfect the chemistry the TNG crew was and what a good touch Jonathan Frakes had in the making of a Star Trek movie. Too bad he didn't get to direct ST Nemesis. I think he would have sent off the crew in a far better way than in the ending of Nemesis.
@@SheldonAdama17 Come on. Don't talk like that! I liked Nemesis alot! Seeing a young Tom Hardy playing Picard's younger self? That's awesome! I enjoyed the film when I saw it in theaters and I still love it to this day. The scene where Picard crashes his ship into Shinzon's is still one of the most memorable scenes from the TNG years.
1:23 - "OK, that wasn't so good." I watched this movie yeeeears ago, and I still say this whenever I taste something nasty. I usually end up finishing it anyway.
this one of the best scenes of the movie! i remember my dad explaining that they don't have alcohol in the 24th century and that's why she got drunk; she forgot about alcohol
of course they have alcohol in the 24th century. It's just that on Federation starships, they generally serve synthehol instead. Stop by Quarks, and you'll be able to sample various real alcohols from across the galaxy. Each captain seems to have their own private stash as well. Also practically every visitor who's not a Starfleet officer seems to make a point of mentioning that the Federation's synthehol is inferior to the real thing.
@@BrowncoatFairy I had forgotten about that. Dad explained things on a kids level because, well l was a kid back then lol Like, with the episode “The Game” Dad said it was like a drug because a 7 year old isn’t going to understand what that game actually did
I'm still trying to figure out how she managed to sober up so quickly. I wish they had shown Crusher treating her... Or, imagine a scene where Troi vomits on Picard's shoes, and Riker has to do the explaining for her "illness" (although Picard probably knows enough about "real" alcohol in order to recognize the symptoms).
@@michaelheath2866 "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." -Ben Franklin(anecdotal) However, a 1779 letter bearing his signature that survives to this day contains this passage; "Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy."
Love the reaction of Riker when he spits the cork out... hes like wtf is going on lol The passed out chap at the end, who upon being woken up by the music immediately reaches for more drink cracks me up also...
This a favorite scene of mine. The other is Cochrane's freak out as they break the warp barrier. It's cool how they showed the character transform from any other ordinary man wanting to make it big to a guy that would be the foundation of exploration and the foundation of society as it would become. I like how he gets overwhelmed with hearing they will make a statue of him, schools named after him, and that. His super secret. Invention will someday be in every text book, "The first chapter is called Zefram Cochrane."
Picard had to fight the borg and his inner demons. Riker had to figth Zephram Chocrane, the most important drinker in History. I am not sure who had it worse...
Well, here it is, the very best moment of all Trek, and not a single phasor, tricorder, transporter, replicator, warp drive, photon torpedo, comlink (or even a captain) in sight. Just three people living in the moment. Best scene ever.
Favorite scene in all of Star Trek (Tied with when Kira throws a tea cup at Dukat). I like to pretend the guy passed out in the background that wake ups when Cochran starts the jukebox is human!Morn. Traveling thru time and space to be a barfly.
It was at this point that changed Troi's character forever going forward... Marina never played Troi quite the same as her TNG showrun after this... this was evident in her Voyager and Enterprise appearances
cuz Deanna Troi was written as nothing more than a sex toy for most of TNG and the writers finally gave her some substance in the final two seasons and in the movie set
Classic. Deanna's best scene. Loads of comedy. It took me 3 tequilas to find out his name and the last 20 minutes keeping his hands of me. Don't go questioning my technique. In my professional opinion, he's nuts. Passes out drunk, does for it me. Deserves an Oscar.
Small background detail you don't always immediately spot at 2:38: There's a passed out drunk guy on the right hand side of the screen, near the jutebox who gets woken up by the music.
Marina has said that she's a pretty mean drunk when she does over indulge in Alcohol....She and Jonathan had to do several re takes of this scene if I recall it correctly.......
2364: "I'm so emotionally sensitive it tears me apart! 2373: "God damnit, Will, I'm a psychiatrist, not a barfly! Counsel my ass!" Yeah, best improvement ever :D
Does anyone think it's astonishing that this film is now 25 years old? I remember actually seeing it at the cinema. Can't believe this is so long ago now!
Frakes didn't get enough credit as an actor for his reactions in scenes where he had no lines. This scene wouldn't be nearly as funny without them. Go back and watch ST TNG: "Manhunt" and just watch Johnny's face. It's priceless 😂😂😂
I remember seeing this in the cinema at the premiere, and we were all laughing, it was a great scene, being there for this film, it was I think one of the best films Star Trek put out, used the whole cast from TNG,
I am surprised that over the many many years that had Deanna and Will together that they never had her say a line like this “I love you ,Will, have you not gotten that over the many years.They should have gottten together long before they did.
I would have liked that as well - only the opposite. Will is the one who left for his career.. so him saying that he'd, "Realized that life is about more than duty & any captaincy that doesn't include her isn't worth taking," would have been great to include.
In STO, there's a mission where you have to fend off borg drones in this vicinity, alongside Seven of Nine. All the while, when you get to the bar, you hear this scene from outside.
This scene is why this movie is awesome the cast of next generation stepped out of their traditional roles. Troi drunk was just a riot. The question remains how much alcohol does a betazoid need to consume to become drunk.
2 parts of this scene was hilariously funny to me 1. When Cochran threw the bottle at riker, 2. When deanna passed out (I know her head hurt like hell afterwards) Lmfao
Scene blooper, Riker unplugs the Jukebox and you can see the plug 🔌 in his hand, then later, Dr. Zephran Cochrane hits the Jukebox and turns it in without 🔌 plugging it back in.
@@monsterascanbe5170 Cool. When your mom picked your name, did your dad know where she got it from ahead of time? Or did he not find out until after you were born and named?
Acting a drunk slur is like acting with a stutter…very obvious when it is//isn’t. James Cromwell is the best on screen drunk. Perfect slurs on the right syllables.
When Troi is drunk, she becomes Marina Sirtis.
Marina Sirtis agrees: th-cam.com/video/9JLrwAB4DrY/w-d-xo.html
So accurate.
I honestly thought Marina was herself, and not Deanna Troi, all of this movie. lol
How dare you sir! :)
I guess after they acquired synethehol, they stopped investigating more effective methods to avoid alcohol poisoning just sober-all
Rikers reaction when Troi's head bangs on the table is EFFIN PRICELESS xDDDD
I heard she was actually drunk on the final take for this scene. My bet is she passed out.
"You're blended alright." Haha gets me every time
"My professional opinion as ships counsellor.......he's nuts". She in her sober moments ALWAYS told people "No-one is crazy" LOL
"So don't (poke) go criticizing (poke) my counseling (poke) techniques! (poke)"
I cannot imagine how many takes they must've had to do to get that scene right, especially considering that Jonathan Frakes most likely couldn't hold himself together during this part.
I actually watched this movie with the commentary and they did that scene on the first take!
+John Nehmer Two-takes Frakes!
@@usmcSC0UTSN1PER That's pretty impressive considering Frakes was always a bit of a giggler on set.
They didn't get it right. They just had to move on.
@@depauw2004 How do you get a scene like that "right"? If they did, it would ruin it.
I love Riker's amused face the entire time LMAO

Certainly, Data's wake would have been MUCH better.
My neighbor’s dog could have crapped out a better script for Nemesis than the one we got

I enjoyed the film when I saw it in theaters and I still love it to this day. The scene where Picard crashes his ship into Shinzon's is still one of the most memorable scenes from the TNG years.
In my opinion one of the best scenes in the TNG movies!
"He a friend of yours?"
"Yes."
"Husband?"
"No."
"Good!"
"Now this dean" "Deanna! " "This is the good stuff" Dr. Cochran?" "Sshh" "The Phoenix, may she rest in peace'
Ironic, considering what happens two movies later.
GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUD
At least not yet.
I love Riker's reaction to that line. The look on his face is priceless.
2:41 One beautiful bit of business is the cast extra in the back of the bar who sits bolt upright when the jukebox turns on.
And grabs his drink as soon as he wakes up.
1:23 - "OK, that wasn't so good." I watched this movie yeeeears ago, and I still say this whenever I taste something nasty. I usually end up finishing it anyway.
Heh... yeah, same here. Wasted alcohol is a sad thing.
Just the fact that he throws the bottle behind him to break nonchalantly is the cherry on the sundae. XD
When it comes to Tequila
Dude, it's my go to reply to everything in life, it's so awesome hahah
The true danger of Synthehol: not preparing you for the real thing.

I think you will find that a lot of great thinkers, inventors, artist etc in history were very strange, drunks or substance users.
As the saying goes: Those who are crazy enough to believe they can change the world are the ones who do.
Wilbur and Orvill Wright, Chuck Yeager, John Glenn, Neil Armstrong, Zephram Cochran. Not a single one of them was sane.
She is freaking adorable in this scene.
best is riker's "sigh" when deanna passes out :)

In the DVD commentary, RDM described it as going back in time to meet George Washington only to discover that he beat his wife.
I think Frakes might have been enjoying this scene just a little bit
+PassiveSmoking Watching his face in the first half is hilarious. He is having a blast haha.
I dunno, I think Cromwell is having fun dancing around like a lunatic just a bit more. Heh.
He looks like hes fighting to keep composure
Picard had to fight the borg and his inner demons.
Riker had to figth Zephram Chocrane, the most important drinker in History.
I am not sure who had it worse...
Best scene in the whole movie. I love Commander Riker's reaction when Deanna Troi passes out and goes face first onto a table. It's like "Ah shit".
Well, here it is, the very best moment of all Trek, and not a single phasor, tricorder, transporter, replicator, warp drive, photon torpedo, comlink (or even a captain) in sight. Just three people living in the moment.
Best scene ever.
2:04 “So don’t go criticizing my counseling techniques!” 😂😂
No arguments here. 😆
2:50 Riker facepalm isn't quite Picard double-facepalm levels but it's up there.
Straight up "Lord, give me strength."
Favorite scene in all of Star Trek (Tied with when Kira throws a tea cup at Dukat). I like to pretend the guy passed out in the background that wake ups when Cochran starts the jukebox is human!Morn. Traveling thru time and space to be a barfly.
I personally just prefer when Kira straight up kicks the crap out of people myself.

"Sorry" at 2:07 is one of my favorite Frakes moments.
That look that riker gives when zephram Cochrane says good after he asks if will is Deanna's husband and she says no i lose it everytime
Her head just drops! Kills me every time!
She did a great job!!

“I AM NOT!!”
The song of the barfly
"Yeah,you're BLENDED,alright"

Just don't talk trash about Tottenham Hotspur then, that's her favourite soccer (I mean football, don't hurt me Mina!) team.

Jonathan Frakes spent this whole scene trying real hard not to laugh..would love to have seen any out takes from this.
i would pay money to see those bloopers. it'd be hilarious.
"If you're looking for my professional opinion as ships councilor, he's NUTS"
Drunk Troi: "I'm just trying to blend in the culture..."
Riker: "You're blended."
XD
That moment you realize when Deanna passes out from being drunk and will face palms shit just went from bad to worse and from funny to funnier
When trios fell flat on the table I thought that Dr. Cochrane did his victory dance because he won the drinking contest😅😅😅😂😂🎉❤
"You're blended, all right!"
I can only imagine the hangover Troi must've had after this.
More like Marina's. I heard that she actually had to get drunk before that final take.
brilliant people are always nuts
I somehow see Xanatos and Demona reenacting this scene :)))
reyonXIII
lol there is a story someone wrote online where Demona got tanked (though xanatos didn't show up till the next day when demona was hungover)
When she said "this is no time to talk about time" while she was drunk was hilarious
We don't have the time!
What was I saying
I forgot how much I loved this scene. Needed a laugh today and so glad I chose this to cheer me up! 😆
My favorite scene in this movie!
Yaaayy I love 💟 Drunk Troi ❕✳🌟💕
Never unplug Roy Orbison!
If you hate Roy Orbison, you don’t know what real music is
This my most favorite scene from the movie. Jonathan and Marina did it perfectly. 😂
Does anyone think it's astonishing that this film is now 25 years old? I remember actually seeing it at the cinema. Can't believe this is so long ago now!
Riker's face palm gives Picard a run for his money XD
She's blended, alright.
How the conversation should have gone:
“He a friend of yours?”
“Yes.”
“Husband?”
“Not yet.”

This scene is best part of the entire movie BY FAR! :D love it so much, i die laughing every time

They are using the audio of this scene for First Contact Day in STO so I had to watch it again
I have seen this movie so much as a child I can sing the song playing the background.
WADA WADA WAA DOO WAA DOO WAAA!
One of the funniest scenes from the movie especially when Deanna starts drunkenly going on about there's no time to talk about time..
2:50 That little beat right there.
This is where the magic operate...
Best bit of the movie
1:28 love that.
this one is still my favorite star trek movie

The slurred speech on “20 minutes” is so perfect😂😂
This scene is why this movie is awesome the cast of next generation stepped out of their traditional roles. Troi drunk was just a riot. The question remains how much alcohol does a betazoid need to consume to become drunk.
Apparently its three shots of tequila and one shot of bad whiskey.
@@jessicatripp5129 obviously betazoids don't have the same alcohol tolerance that Vulcans have.
So gooooood
Maybe one of the funniest scenes in Star Trek history
2 parts of this scene was hilariously funny to me 1. When Cochran threw the bottle at riker, 2. When deanna passed out (I know her head hurt like hell afterwards) Lmfao
Remembering the magnificent woman of the season 1... :)
Your blended alright 😂😂😂
Riker: You've had tequila before
Troi: When?
Riker: I introduced you to it on our second date.
"Husband?," not yet lmao
oh man i love that guy
Part of me wants to believe they WERE drinking during that scene LOL

Her favourite scene.
Mine too.
That look Riker makes when Deanna slams her head on the table, fucking nailed it like a fashion model!
