Video posts don’t typically do super well on Lemmy but this one deserves attention. Just watch it. You’ll understand why.
Sidenote but the body double of Kirk is the same guy who is the voice over artist for Maul and Palpatine in the animated Star Wars stuff. Sam Witwer. Also known as Starkiller. You can really recognize him in a couple of the facial expressions during this video.
This gave me chills!
(If you aren’t someone who usually clicks on videos, you should make an exception for this one)
I love how official this is. Shatner in it, and produced it. Relevant family members also on the production team. Excellent effects, perfect mood and music, not one line of dialogue needed.
This needs to be added to every new release of Generations going forward.
Thank you for sharing it bud!
I don’t think that’s actually Shatner. It’s definitely not actually Nimoy. Or at least the video of their heads are taken from elsewhere and highly manipulated.
It is Shatner. He’s credited as Kirk, along with the body double. He definitely has tons of cgi make up on, but it’s him.
I think he’s credited as Kirk because of the VO.

Wow … thanks for this
I basically grew up in a world were Kirk and Spock were a normal part of the background of our lives … seeing Shatner and Nimoy was just part of growing up.
This really made me feel sad, nostalgic, happy, bitter and overjoyed … thanks to these people, my life was a bit more fun and happy and it still us through communities like this.
That’s extremely moving. Thank you for demanding that I watch it. I literally can’t stop crying in the kitchen.
Sweet onions don’t have the chemicals that cause eyes to tear up. Use those instead of white onions in your omelettes.

Apologies if i’m stating the obvious
