He is The Picard.
RIP
I used to watch Star Trek TNG back in the 1990s. Patrick was great as Captain Picard.
I did notice that in the latest Wolverine he seemed to be doing not so well with his physical status, looking quite frail and his voice was also no longer strong as it used to be (that was in Logan 2017, so already 10 years ago). Dementia is kind of eating away at the neurons.

THERE. ARE. FOUR. LIGHTS.
I'll never forget this line, and what it means. I think of it often.
RIP Professor X
Godspeed. ;~;7
Make it not so
I remember him as Gurney Halleck and his brief non-speaking turn as Karla in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
i sense a great disturbance in the force...
Profound shock.
I often think of Picard looking down at us, through a force field in the Enterprise D, sees our wars, our inequalities and slowly shakes his head: "Savages". In his role as Picard he was a bit of a teacher to me.
Just as I'm in the middle of watching Picard Season 1.
What can you not say about a man like this. Beloved by all and someone to look up to on and off the screen. Many of us grew up learning from and laughing with Sir Patrick Stewart and his characters. He was an actor's actor, committed to his roles.
No being is so important that he can usurp the rights of another, but yesterday we lost someone very important.
Engage.
But it was too late. I've seen everything.
In our hearts, you will always live long and prosper, Captain.
Watching Star Trek TNG episodes when they first aired in the late 80s had a powerful effect on my imagination as a child. It would not, and could not, have been the same show without Patrick Stewart. RIP.
I have (re)watched Star Trek TNG more times than I can remember. I got a shock when I saw the title of this post.
One of the celebrity deaths I actually care about. Rest in peace.
In Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1979), Patrick Stewart has a short appearance near the very end as soviet KGB mastermind Karla.
Never have I seen such presence and charisma squeezed into so short a scene.
Honorable mention: thanks to red letter media for keeping the memory alive. And for being dorky and entertaining.
Am I the only one who regularly tells Claude to "make it so"?
RIP
RIP.
I would watch some TNG tonight in his honor… but since the Ellisons bought Paramount, it’s not available on streaming in my country anymore. (Billionaires really will spoil everything.)
Instead I’ll go find my old DVD box set of “I, Claudius” where he had a memorable role too.
Damn. Doomsday may be his last appearance. I wonder if they filmed anything for secret wars.
Wow, what a loss. So many iconic characters, so much inspirational
:(
Paywall for an obituary is something else
*Sir Patrick Stewart
I grew up watching this show. I watched it with my dad. I'm bereft right now.

Same as I said about Walter:
Nah, it's SciFi. They'll find a way of writing them back in. Won't they?
‘Damage report!’
