It was a normal day on Twitter until William Shatner did this:
@Cmdr_Hadfield Are you tweeting from space? MBB
@WilliamShatner Yes, Standard Orbit, Captain. And we’re detecting signs of life on the surface.
After taking on the various Trek series commanding officers in “The Captains”, William Shatner now turns his documentary lens on fan culture in a brand new documentary, William Shatner’s “Get a Life”. The documentary premieres on EPIX on July 28, 2012.
There are actors. There are stars. There are icons. And then there’s William Shatner. For Shatner cannot be contained by simple labels. And his status in pop culture grows in height and breadth every day. Had he only played “Captain Kirk” on “Star Trek” his impact would be massive. Had he only done the work before that. He’d be remembered. Had he only done beloved “bad” talk-sung recordings of popular songs, he’d be good for a laugh or three. But Shatner is all those things and more. And he just doesn’t stop working.
Here’s a trio of new motivational posters for you do use as you like. Let us know in the comments sections where you’ve used them and the reactions you got.
Here are our latest motivators. First up we got this one for DeForest Kelly. Clever, ain’t it? And, after the jump, a new one featuring William Shatner. For a larger version of either of these images just click on them. Voila! You’ll have a larger version. And, as always, feel free to repost and share these anywhere you’d like. And if either of these went over particularly well with a friend or coworker share that in the comments section below.
We’ve gotten some great responses to the previous William Shatner videos we posted, so here’s another one. It’s just shy of 18 years since this interview aired, but boy has television changed! You just don’t see interviewers who are as tough, prepared, and professional as Tom Snyder. He doesn’t let Shatner get away with much. But he never seems rude or hectoring. The results? A damn entertaining interview.
We so much enjoyed bringing you the recent GMA appearance of William Shatner, we thought you might enjoy this flashback to the eighties. Here we watch a GMA segment from 25 (!) years ago featuring Shatner promoting Star Trek IV. Dig Shatner in that sparkly shirt. Gotta love the eighties! And stick with the interview till the end, there’s a very special bonus interview.
Shatner promotes his new book “Shatner Rules” and his new CD “Seeking Major Tom” on “Good Morning America”.
More on the CD after the jump …
He’s promoting his new album and book!
Gosh, I wonder what side he’s on? /sarcasm
