Brent really turned the tables on Christy.He is sarcastic and funny, very smart guy. He has defense shields when he is mocked or surprised by a fan. He has a charismatic personality. Really funny interview.
30:10 data can totally get old and he probably would totally want to get old cause that would just be another step in his quest to understand humanity. so, we got this new picard show coming up, you just say he found a way to graft skin that ages all over his body thanks to ideas he (or someone else)got from the borg when they grafted a piece on him. the queen knew that having skin and feeling is a step toward humanity, its not impossible to think that data could find his own way after. esp since its 20 years later and he wanted his friends to feel comfortable around him but leave out the emotion chip so he can still be more similar to the data we remember on the inside and say its cause it would be too much input because of how hes not the original data and only the prototype or something but it can be done!!!!
@Shufei You aren't up there announcing them, either, so it doesn't matter that you don't know them. If you're working a con and you're expected to introduce someone, best fucking know how to say their name.
Some people think that hiring an allegedly pretty yet obviously vacuous young woman is all you need. Don't think Mr. Spiner was too impressed, but he pretty much put her in her place and took charge of the Q&A. Loved the look on his face when the comedy teacher called him Mr. Spooner - it was like game on. Suppose even the worst convention experience for these guests is alright as long as the cheque clears.
This is awesome to watch. I love how he and Kristy set each other up quite often. They worked great together. Is there somewhere that we can see more of Kristy's work?
My question would be, "Brent, how long was Data really Lore?" At the end of Data-Lore Lore and Data have a huge fight which ends with one of them being beamed off the ship into space. The crew ask the other one "Are you okay." and he responds, "I'm fine." Clearly it was Lore, not Data who won the fight. I'd like to know how long it was before Data rejoined the crew. Was it after Data and Lore meet again in Song's lab?
Really enjoyed the video, thanks for uploading. Mr Spiner is very funny and interesting, and I liked Kristy a lot. Could just have done with the camera tilted a little lower so less space above heads, and some occasional wider shots to show the whole room. Also, shots of the folks asking questions would have been great, with their consent of course :)
... Data didn't make any friends or have any rapport with any other Starfleet members before TNG (no back story other than being created by Dr. Noonian Soong) so technically, he was a blank slate...
He said in one of these things that the question he gets asked most often is "are you single?" He might have been joking; it's hard to tell with him. A member of the audience called out "ARE you?" And he said no, he wasn't single. And that's ALL he said. He mentions his son fairly frequently but he NEVER mentions his wife/partner/girlfriend (it's unclear exactly what she it). That's kind of odd. He's an odd duck.
Good Q&A! But yeah, "Brent Spinner" of "Star Track" fame, and then this video title calls it "Stark Trek" - the funny thing is I think he might be relieved if everyone magically forgot about his Star Trek fame.
I know that Brent hasn't seen episodes but the first 20,.....which is unfortunate since the first season was the absolute worst,....but he should watch the top/best episodes of the show because there is much to gain from the production department. It creates a more fantastic experience than just the script or acting it out. I know Brent will never see this, but it's too bad he doesn't see more of the later episodes.
Weird. None of the conventions, have asking questions about how did he run the Soong role like it's spoiler alert but everything is just about Data question, where's his Soong role lmao
The writer that thought up "Data can't use contractions" really out of it. He supposedly had over a quadrillion calculations per second but couldn't understand contractions.
Its not that he doesn't understand them. His programming doesn't allow him to use them. This is kinda explained in one of the Lore episodes. People got weirded out by how human he was. Kinda like the uncanny valley effect. They intentionally made Data less human, like not being allowed to use contractions. So he wouldn't fall into the uncanny valley.
Christie is awesome. I just might prefer a host that doesn't have a lot of knowledge of the actor who they're hosting. There's less nerves, and Christie does a great job of leaving the "lore" to the fans, and being a great host, without being nervous or intimidated.
These videos are getting a little tired. He must get soooo tired of these people asking the same f-ing questions year after year. But doesn't he love to take the piss out of them.
Brent Spiner: Disappointing convention audiences since 1887.... I used to have a recurring dream that I would meet him and he would be dismissive and grumpy, lol. He's been projecting that image since the time the show was only partway through its run. It's funny because on the rare occasion people can get him to talk seriously about the role, he has some really interesting things to say. He just resents Data as much as he appreciates him.
I don’t want to stand on a soap box and defend this silly mockery of an interview, but these Comic Cons aren’t for you if you don’t have a sense of humor, clearly she was out of her league, Brent may of saved it ,but he came of more like the “ Shat” it’s all about Me haha sarcasm, Hell wish he was more fricken” Data”
Take it from a man, Brent is suffering from sexual frustration. He's a gentleman so he's being cordial but inside its always a raging sex mess. I know the feeling.
@@robinhay43 Hugh Hefner's ex's disclosed he had this frustration all the time,,especially at fancy events and in his older age when he couldn't perform the same.
The way he mocks host and fans, still being loved for it, is unique. My hero.
22:27
"Pat right? Yeah, I never forget a name"
"Thank you Mister Spooner"
I lost it there
I'm pretty sure if I met data in person I would simultaneously bawl my eyes out and pass out. my all time favorite character
But you never would meet him in real life as Data is work of fiction.
It would be a mindblowing experience.
Anita Grace, I really hope you meet him xx You can do it ❤️
One thing I noticed is how concise everyone's questions are. This is remarkable. They don't drag on too much, get to the point and speak clearly.
word
Brent Spinner in Star Track!
please welcome Brock Splindor from Space Trunk
Start watching at 35:35 ...she actually SNORTS while laughing and you can tell he hears it. Oh GAWD.
This is so cute. Brent Spiner is really funny.
Don't you mean Brent Spinner?
I wish I could meet brent spiner in person.i love him he's so funny,and I loved him as data.
Brent is such a flirt. I love him 😂
@3:38 The way he looked at Kristie I would’ve MELTED in my seat 😌
"You're killing me, Christine." lmao xD
Brent is such a good interview. He knows how to keep it going and be interesting! Thats really interesting Brent is close with his former TNG actors!
What an introduction.
BTW "Spinner" is the German word for nutcase :-)
She botched Brent's name and knew jack of his other jobs, but at least she owned her mistakes and accepted being the brunt of some jokes.
wonderful :) lots of silliness that makes this some-what funny and entertaining :)
35:37 he makes Christy snort.
Christy LOL, Is Janet around?
Brent really turned the tables on Christy.He is sarcastic and funny, very smart guy. He has defense shields when he is mocked or surprised by a fan. He has a charismatic personality. Really funny interview.
You would have never thought Data is this cool in real life. Check out his Jon-Luc Picard(Patrick Stewart) impersonations.
Jean-Luc…
I enjoy watching him so much 💕
I could tell Brent was a little pissed with Spot the way he held the cat down in some scenes lol
Thank you/ congratulations on posting the full interview

He's great
How could anyone involved with a Con pronounce his last name SPINNER??
@Shufei You aren't up there announcing them, either, so it doesn't matter that you don't know them. If you're working a con and you're expected to introduce someone, best fucking know how to say their name.
She was hired to be looked at not listened to
@@excaliburjohndeere3887 The bombshell missed her flight so they hired a kid from Hot Topic
How awkward

please I wish he would come to Iowa I wanna meet him
That's not Brent Spiner, that's Noonian Soong!
That's not Brennt Spinner, that's Nonnian Sonng!
@@ZapOKill That’s not Bronnit Spiimner, that’s Nonnina Sproung!
29:39 hahaha, well they did call and you're on it now!
This is awesome to watch. I love how he and Kristy set each other up quite often. They worked great together. Is there somewhere that we can see more of Kristy's work?
I hope she made that up to him... I like his sarcasm :).
Brett Spinner was my favorite Star Wars
My question would be, "Brent, how long was Data really Lore?" At the end of Data-Lore Lore and Data have a huge fight which ends with one of them being beamed off the ship into space. The crew ask the other one "Are you okay." and he responds, "I'm fine."
Clearly it was Lore, not Data who won the fight. I'd like to know how long it was before Data rejoined the crew. Was it after Data and Lore meet again in Song's lab?
This is great.
Almost near the end and I'm a little disappointed that nobody has yet introduced themselves to Spiner as Inigo Montoya.
Really enjoyed the video, thanks for uploading. Mr Spiner is very funny and interesting, and I liked Kristy a lot. Could just have done with the camera tilted a little lower so less space above heads, and some occasional wider shots to show the whole room.

someone needs to tell Brent that Data has an aging program
watch Inheritence TNG Season 7
Had to look up Dude where's my car... holly cow! :)
How can Data start as a blank canvas, when he had been in Starfleet for 18 years prior to TNG?
... Data didn't make any friends or have any rapport with any other Starfleet members before TNG (no back story other than being created by Dr. Noonian Soong) so technically, he was a blank slate...
27:10 "One is my name. The other is not." Nobody like Polaski.
I see what you did there... I think lol
Welcome Trent Spooner!
will you becoming to NJ.Comic Con Mr.Spiner?
im at 38:00 omg i forgot i did this
Brent Flirting with the hostess who could be his grand daughter lul
22:26 PWNED! :D
"Homeland is not a comedy" Whoosh that went over her head, then she had to say it wasn't a comedy and killed the room.
omg @ 35:38 he it totally checking her out and she LIKES IT
I couldn't tell if she was just being a super friendly interviewer or actually wanted a taste of Spiner the whole time...
well he IS single :)
+Dave Dumas
Hmmmm I've never seen him say or suggest anything other than being taken. His wife/partner is Loree McBride (sadly 😢😢😢).
He said in one of these things that the question he gets asked most often is "are you single?" He might have been joking; it's hard to tell with him. A member of the audience called out "ARE you?" And he said no, he wasn't single. And that's ALL he said. He mentions his son fairly frequently but he NEVER mentions his wife/partner/girlfriend (it's unclear exactly what she it). That's kind of odd. He's an odd duck.

women love attention from presentable, successful guys.
Are you surprised by this?
Good Q&A! But yeah, "Brent Spinner" of "Star Track" fame, and then this video title calls it "Stark Trek" - the funny thing is I think he might be relieved if everyone magically forgot about his Star Trek fame.
I've fixed the title, that was a typo. Oops. XD
She got his name wrong!! LOLOLOL!!!!
I wonder what sort of reception Stuart Baird would get at one of these conventions...
sweet!
"We have Brenter Spinner."
It was at the moment she knew she fucked up.
Data transfer @ 3:33
I know that Brent hasn't seen episodes but the first 20,.....which is unfortunate since the first season was the absolute worst,....but he should watch the top/best episodes of the show because there is much to gain from the production department.

"ask me what makes me funny" ...."no, you are not funny" -- wow, buddy that's not how that works....like AT ALL.
Why are Americans named after rivers in England? Trent, Brent?
Comedian!
i used to call him spinner too lol
what show was that girl on?
Did Spinner do any of his fabulous Patrick Stewart impressions in that vid, it was too long to watch right through to find out?
Weird. None of the conventions, have asking questions about how did he run the Soong role like it's spoiler alert but everything is just about Data question, where's his Soong role lmao
Wats her name? Christie wat?
'Spinner' Star 'Track' ugh...
Brent's Patrick Stewart sounds like Bane...
funny, 'cause Tom Hardy played both Bane and Picard's clone :)
What is that terrible video game reality show that Christy was in, now I need to know 😂
Oh man was he totally busting on her

Wow he's such a good interviewee.
Umm that chick didn't know Ashton Kutcher
Brent kept looking Christie up and down, you could tell he had a thing for her... I don't blame him, but it was a bit creepy.
I think she should have done her homework.
hope christi doesnt get another presenting role
These videos are getting a little tired. He must get soooo tired of these people asking the same f-ing questions year after year. But doesn't he love to take the piss out of them.
I can't make the interviewer out or if she's pretending she doesn't know anything on purpose for comedic effect
Brent really is awesome 👏.... unlike Marina who ... well is Marina
“Release Me!!!!l 😉
Prime example why moderators are not only unnecessary but flat out bothersome
Christy's fine Af
I think Voyager fans are normal... That was my in... These fans are unhinged and need therapy

She is introducing him and she doesn't even know how to pronounce his name???
This is the worst Comic Con. Poor Brent, what a sport.
moar tattoos, omg so lol omg so lol cool er nm noty.
Kristy is what's wrong with millennial "fandom" these days.
They picked the absolute worse person as the host but he was an absolute hoot.
Alkward lol x
Christi s clueless...just saying...
lol, man, she's got to be the worst host ever. I love how he handles her too
Jeez such a hero of mine and he seems like kinda a jerk.
He doesn't to me. He seems lovely, smart and witty.
Never, ever fuck up the name of your guest. Such a disingenuous moderator.
As I have replied to many comments, this was something they planned, including the name "mistake" and her seeming clueless toward Mr. Spiner's work.
Yah, really funny. You are a huge douche. Ha, ha, ha. Good joke.
We get that it was planned but it obviously failed to entertain like you hoped it would.
@@thepopverse Hmm! Well that seemed awfully realistic in how they both handled that... DId they plan she didnt know about Ashton Kutcher and others?

I agree it seems odd to mock the fans and he would hate getting it back.
Is it me or is this painful to watch?
The earth is flat. We are not going into space. Do your research. Research "Lunar Wave".
yes, thank you!
ffs

Silly sod.
That globe in that classroom day one. NASA is a big lie. All these shows about space and exploration it's all lies the Earth is flat do your research.
