[yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54tm8f6VPD8[/yt] Who knew they had so many shenanigans while filming the series? (The title is an error, it's outtakes from the show not the movies.) I laughed my guts out and had to share this find.
Engage...no don't Engage *ALL TOGETHER NOW!* ENERGISE! That's what we say in here! I don't know why they were so against releasing these things for so long. The outtakes we've seen on the TNG discs so far just make the set look like a fun, friendly place to work and when you or another messes up, they just say "oh well" and laugh along with you. Now, I admit there might be others out there that might not paint such a pretty picture, but these ones have been selected with care so I'm glad we're finally getting to see them. And the more of them that are released the more I'm convinced Dorn might be the funniest person to ever be involved with Trek
One of the funniest bloopers is on the blu-ray documentaries and has the cast cracking up after the script supervisor reads Lwaxana Troi's line "Oh, Jean-Luc. What naughty thoughts. But how wonderful you still think of me like that."
Every time I see the word "Hysterical" meaning LOL I wonder if people realize it comes form a Greek word meaning woman (specifically the uterus) and describing excessive or uncontrollable emotion.
I also dispute the claim that it's "very funny". I'd be stretched to even state it was mildly amusing. That gag reel was a combination of "meh" and "oh, okay then".
They weren't available then. They are only available now because they got them off the original film while doing the remaster.
This is great! Seeing Dorn and Spiner cut up is the funniest because it's so out of character for them.
