no ones mentioned patrick saying that they were close to making a Trek movie with all the captains? and at the center would have been Bill as Kirk?

I’m guessing that was after Nemesis ?

Nice lines, written all by someone else, and not enough of Shatner’s acting chops.

“Risk, risk is our business!”

“Here’s to Captain Dunsel.”

“No, no! Never lose you.”

“You deliberately stopped me. Do you know what you’ve just done?” … and “Let’s get the hell out of here.”

Mirimanee’s Death (included as a space babe, sadly not as great drama)

“Finnegan!” and “Yeoman, report! Don’t move, don’t breath, don’t even think! Concentrate!”

“Forgive me, Gary.”

And frankly, he did a great job as the shell-shocked GI in “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” from the Twilight Zone. Were this not a SF event, it would have been cool to see some of his other stuff, from before Trek.

Shatner a messianic figure? I hope ya’ll are joking about that, because it’s really sad if you think that way. But I love Bill, and Kirk. While it would be great for nostalgia’s sake for him to be in the new movie, I understand the decision. Serving nostalgia doesn’t necessarily serve the storyline, and I’m sure Abrams would have included him if it didn’t take ridiculous plot machinations to bring Kirk back to life. The needs of the story outweigh the needs of the many…

Awesome video, it really made my day. All three were very funny. How ironic that they got Malcolm and Patrick for that presentation.

Bring back the Shat!

It was good to see The Shat up there with Stewart and McDowell. Almost as much fun as his Comedy Central roast. LOL :-)

#23 “there was no hint of a teleprompter being used by him and he delivered it in a sincere and heartfelt manner!”

I was thinking that same thing. The speech was delivered just like a performance from a true professional.
