I did not notice that, BUT I did notice the nice touch of lights turning on and off in some of the rooms.

great stuff, but would it not be cooler to have little more time for heating up/ lighting up (0:45) the warp engines?

Very interesting. I would make a suggestion as an observation. When you pass by the bridge, perhaps show Picard standing in front of his Ready Room window as the camera is panning around just before you see the observation lounge. It might add a just a little more to it. Love how you showed Janeway, Seven and what looked like Chaykote standing by the window on your Star Trek Voyager intro.

If you showed this to CBS, Paramount, and Viacom, you'd get hired in an instant, it's THAT GOOD

Well done, sir! They most certainly more legitimate to the series than that shown in the Picard series. Most of all, I didn't care for the look of the bussard collectors. They looked like three swirling fans. I guess, they were trying to make them look more like the original Enterprise, but they stopped using that look in The Next Generation.

She's fabulous. I love the Galaxy Class design.

The version from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, has parts that were cut out, when the theme was made into the theme for TNG. PLEASE work your magic, on it!!!! This is truly magnificent!! It's like I'm 7 years old, in footie pajamas, watching the pilot for the first time, at Grandma's all over again! THE FEELS, THE FEELS!!!

The enterprise E from the movies is my favorite. Star trek first contact and star trek nemesis

Loved the extended above shot fly over, made me feel like I was a kid again.

CGI SHIT. OLD one was based on true model

Was about to mention the same thing.

Ditto - wish TNG, DS9, etc had done exactly this. The static lighting patterns always bugged me...

@@ministryoflies1344 Maybe so, but the florescent tube lights they used weren't capable of that kind of discrimination. With fiber optic lighting, maybe. However, for the most part having random lights turn-on-and-off would have been impossible because of motion-control photography! The regular strobe lights worked, but not random room lights.

Yeah, I know that the tech at the time couldn't manage that consistency and detail...syncing up over multiple passes etc would have been a pain. But maybe if DS9 or Voyager get the 4k restored treatment, who knows..

@@ministryoflies1344 So far as I'm aware, the only other Classic Trek that is even _technically_ capable of being upgraded to 4K would be _ENT,_ and that's mostly because all the space stuff was already all-CGI, and Season Four was the first (and only) to be filmed digitally. If I understand correctly, the problem with upgrading _DS9_ and _VOY_ to 4K is they'd have to digitally recreate every single physical model, and they don't have access to those anymore. On top of which- if the rumors are to be believed- Paramount Global is on the verge of bankruptcy, and they're looking to sell-off _Star Trek_ to Warner Brothers (assuming Alex Klutzman and Jar Jar Abrams don't -fuck up- that too), and so they're not capable of doing another 4K release at this time.

I prefer the Connies or the Excelsiors

People don't realise how big it is

So I’m not the only one noticed that it was S1 either 👍🏼

@@Thermool Yeah i think the entire recreation was based on the intro of Encounter at Farpoint

The whole damn series should've used this, updated it for Season 3+ and whatnot, a huge missed opportunity with the Blu-Rays

@@Thermool How can you tell the difference between the themes without direct comparison? Legit question, because I can't tell the difference without listening to them side by side.

@@AdmiralKarelia Season 1 and most of season 2 as a whole used a lot of that typical 80’s electronic synthesizer that shows of the time used in their sound tracks. Now as TNG progressed, it was phased out slowly and when they came up to season 3 I believe they changed the whole opening credits including the music, which was based on TMP. Basically they de-80fied the opening credits to more closely, yet TNG like, the TMP music.

Yes, I did. I wonder if the Picard VFX team saw this and were inspired. 🤔

Yes! Amazing!

I was sad when she crashed on Star Trek 7. All the places she went. Nice introduction.

Many Starfleet ships are gorgeous. Defiant, Intrepid, Constitution Refit. But none are so *majestic* as the Galaxy class.

Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that!

It does that in the TV show intro as well, and I'm certain the Jupiter scene was done to intentionally mimic that intro.

@@AdmiralKarelia Similar, but not quite. The last shot in the TV intro, the ship comes from behind and below camera. The Jupiter shot, they warp in and the camera comes in close on the bridge and follows it around to reveal Jupiter, getting much closer to the hull than they ever could with the shooting miniature in the old days. 🤓

@@ragingsithmaster Yeah, I was trying to find an example and I couldn't, I think I'm conflating a few shots in my head. I do remember seeing this shot somewhere before though, recognizing it again in this video, before Picard S3 was even out. Maybe as an opening shot during the episode title or something, idk.

@@AdmiralKarelia The Enterprise-D flyby in the Star Trek Enterprise finale, maybe?

That’s what stood out to me too. I wish that had been in season one of TNG with that pass over the top of the Enterprise.

@@mythdusterds Since being pedantic is what Trek fans do best...allow me to be pedantic! We do get a pass over the top of the Enterprise. But it just starts from the top of the saucer section coming into view on the lower portion of the screen.

@@vengeance1701 Wish this intro was here throughout the whole series, can't get enough of how well executed this is!

Well.... no. The general reaction from OG TOS Trekkers ranged from disinterest to outright disdain. TNG was not welcomed with open arms. It wasn't until the 3rd season when the majority of classic Trekkers came around. Prior to that, almost every aspect from ship design to their spandex uniforms were subject of ridicule. Even the Jerry Goldsmith theme was robbed from "real" Trek in many fans' eyes. Sorry, but no. No goosebumps. It was a different time. We came around & now TNG is roundly embraced.

@@Koldeman my grandfather watched ever episode. From Farpoint to All Good Things.

@@Koldeman thanks for pointing that out. I find it ironic seeing people complaining about modern Trek like Picard, as they've seemingly forgotten that TNG took at least a couple of seasons to come good.

@@Koldeman To be fair, though, those spandex uniforms did, and always will, look and BE ridiculous.

Although if there’s 50 million people on the Moon wouldn’t that be lit up too?
