Why is it that Jean-Luc Picard was French but spoke with an English accent (yet his brother had a French accent)?

I couldn't tell ya, OP, but I've spent the better part of an hour F5'ing the front page waiting for a Star Trek thread to pop up.
Why is there an obstacle between the Security officer and the Captain? Isn't that really poor design?
>>70953703
You are chilling but I'm glad to be of service, #1
But was this addressed in that one episode where he goes back to France to talk to his brother?

...you mean the tactical console? Worf's station?
no, it's fine. what sucks is that they never gave him a chair.
>>70953789
because the images on the viewscreen can't leap out and defile the captain
>except for Betazoids
>>70953648
because he had an English father and a French mother and his father made sure he was educated in superior England and not some third world shithole.

you forgot completely haven't you?
He used to actually talk with a french accent before he became Locutus. The Borg assimilated that part of his personality and he never got it back.
go back and watch the first couple seasons dude.
Next Gen was made in a time where the character could technically be something, but be defined by the actor that played them and have this be built upon as the series continues.
I did like whenever Jean-Luc would reference his own Frenchness, however. I just assumed he was a Frenchman who spent many years in England, or something.

Why does it need a wraparound railing blocking direct access to the Captain?
>>70953951
Enemies beam on to the bridge to seize the Captain. Now what? Time to hurdle?
>>70953648
he did speak french but the universal translator changed it to english.
>>70954008
Good point, but Worf is literally a foot or two away, he could've potentially jumped and grabbed that Borg from Best of Both Worlds
>>70953648
He's speaking French on the show, but the universal translator automatically translates his speech into British English for the convenience of the audience.

You should have posted in the actual /trek/ thread then:

We don't need multiple threads. We are not the Star Wars fandom. Go post in Star Wars threads if you want a community that needs multiple threads.

Most of the frogs in that episode had English accents. Watch it and see.

>"yes, you were always better than me damnit!"
>"uhhn.."
Jean-Luc was a dick to his brother. Robert a best.
>>70953648
It's because his actor had an English accent.
>>70954553
>actor can't modify his accent
And tell me why stewart was knighted again?
>>70953648
I have a better question
Why did Picard enjoy mamba latino music and dancing to it during Insurrection?
Shit seems way out of character for him.

Heh heh heh
>>70954704
Because he's extremely charismatic and a pleasure to watch, which counts for far more than range.
