It was good to see DeForest Kelley and Leonard Nimoy again. This technology may not be time travel, but it feels like it.
It is just is a bit eerie to see them again like this in the newest movies. This is very well done, just seems strange.
Genesis!
So when do we get real movies made with this tech?
indeed been along time
It is good to see their younger selves interact in a way we haven't already seen a thousand times before via the same videos.
Quinto's voice sounds so wrong coming out of Leonard Nimoy's face.
@RogerwilcoFoxtrot But Pine does a great Shatner
@RogerwilcoFoxtrot Agreed
@RogerwilcoFoxtrot naw zack never looked like spock to me. He doesn't even sound like young spock. It takes me out of the series.
Agreed but the face swap looks so natural
watch it with the sound off. Spock is logical Perfection
Nimoy's face fits perfectly over Quinto's - their bone structure is so similar.
Yea but the voice might as well be female. 💀
God that was awful.
Yeah, its only Zack's hairline that looks wrong.
Absolutely. It's great to know that Quinto and Nimoy became friends and shared a real bond over Spock. This deep fake just shows what a good choice Quinto was. And while the deep fake doesn't work as well with Chris Pine overlaid with Shatner, Pine is nevertheless a great choice for Kirk.
Some of these shots work better than others - but in general they are all great, and some of them are spectacular. The shot of Kirk at 1:54, for example, is absolutely extraordinary. Now we just need to be able to deepfake voices, and we'd be in business. On another note - kudos on the editing. Really well put together!
they already have software now to copy how someone talks. they use it in star wars mandalorian for luke's voice, they took old interviews of mark hamill and the computer was able to replicate his voice
Welp, the tech is here now
They have deepfake voices - pretty good too - that's why i'm wondering why it wasn't used here.
AI in 2024: "Hold my beer..."
@@allirogorillathe video is 3 years old
there has been much advancement in that time
It is so freaky that Leonard Nimoy fits in so naturally.
Because Zachary Quinto was born to ne the new Spock :)
Until you hear Quinto's high-pitched voice coming out of Nimoy's mouth.
Same with Shatner. This was very well done IMO.
I think the classic Vulcan hair cut give the computer algorithms something they can really line the faces up with, as well Quinto has a very Nimoy shaped head. As someone else stated he was pretty much born to be Spock 2.0, too bad we didn't get more of him.
@@HeadHunterSix I disagree, he doesnt have the facial structure. Nimoy was so unique. The new spock on Discovery is worse than Quinto though IMO.
I would rewatch the entire Kelvin Timeline movie trilogy deep-faked like that. It would be awesome 👏🏼
This. ^^^^^
Oh man, I would absolutely love to have all three of the new movies deepfaked like this. 😊
I agree.
If they could hire some solid voice impersonators, why not?
Me too. Yes.
Chris pine and shatners features really agree with each other
That's why Chris Pine got the part - he resembles Shatner.
Casting for Bones is simply brilliant. Seeing DeForest Kelley in Karl Urban's face actually makes me believe Im seeing a perfectly younger version of McCoy!
Urban was perhaps the only one that actually resembled the original series actor - DeForest Kelly. Pine was a fairly close choice for a young Shatner and the same with Quinto as Nimoy, though Quinto's voice was too soft in modulation and higher in frequency even for a young..ish Spock, but then Nimoy's voice timbre was iconic.
.
Of the remaining supporting cast - Cho did okay as Sulu, ditto with Saldana as Uhura. but Simon Pegg as Scotty was a total miscast. All the previous actors were perhaps the closest resemblence to the original cast available, but Pegg ? He just wasn't the right shape, look or anything, even his Scottish accent was without the Doohan mannerisms that at least the other actors came fairly close to emulating in their portrayals of the original cast.
.
Don't get me wrong, I like Simon Pegg in other things, especially as a straight actor, but not in the Star Trek universe. Not as a well known character at any rate.
@@Deebz270 complete agreement. Pegg did his best but I feel he missed the mark too and should not have been cast as Scotty.
@@realwhatbrains That rather depends on whether you judge him by his performance as an actor or his imitation of James Doohan. For someone looking for the latter, yes; but I'd argue that a new viewer who didn't bring that baggage would judge Pegg the more convincing of the two in that role.
@@Deebz270 wish they would have kept Paul Mcguillon like Chris Doohan wanted too
young DeForest Kelly looks jacked
This just makes me want a CGI Trek series set in the original series with a de-aged Shatner/Nimoy/Kelley and rest of cast. Basically give us the season 4 and 5 we never got. We are at a point now where it could be done...and quite convincingly.
Edit - because people keep replying to this comment by bashing current Star Trek trends, let me be specific by saying, just because I'd like a Trek series featuring a CGI'd original cast, doesn't mean I'd want one made by current standards of Trek writing/production. So please, stop replying to this with how much you don't want a series like that handled by the current production staff. Neither would I. But that was never the point of this comment.
Until that time check out Star Trek Continues right here on UA-cam! They completed the five year mission and even though it’s fan produced it’s VERY professional and good. The guy playing Kirk channels Shatner and ‘Scotty’ is even played by one of Doohan’s sons.
At the end of SNW, id love to see the show at the very least show the command of the Enterprise being passed from Pike to Kirk, and in 8-9 years deep fake tech will be ready for prime time I think. Id love even more for them to do a TOS remake following SNW, but pick up at season 4, finishing up the first 5 year mission, maybe seeing all of the second.
Great work! One of the better deepfakes I have seen yet!
We are now in the age of "The Running Man".
@@gabesnooks3549 not long to go now
Someone will eventually do something like this. Shame it won’t be with this series. This looked so good.
I suffered cognitive dissonance looking at Shatner's face with Pine's hair.😂
very 1965 meets 2010
Pine's massive spam tho
1965, 2009, and 2013, meet 2020.
Pine’s WIG you mean? Pretty sure Shatner could just swap them out.
William Shatner + Chris Pine =Thomas Jane Anyone else sees this?
Spock deepfake is so flawless. Both Quinto and Nimoy share same face shape.
Kinda. But they're not the same character.
What this shows most of all is how well Spock was cast in the movies.
And Pine as Kirk and Urban as McCoy.
I wish they got Quinto back for Discovery and Strange New Worlds.
The casting was excellent. Some people have complained about Quinto’s voice v Nimoy’s but… people always need to complain about something 🤷🏻♂️
Wait a minute! That's not the real McCoy.
😂😂🤣
This comment is waaaaay underrated!
LOL
I see what you did there.
Have a Like for your trouble
Nice pun!
The facial mix between Shatner and pine is one extremely good looking man.
I'll second that. I met him several years ago. If only I could have met him 50 years ago, but I was only 7!.
Agree...a very hawt mixture
I was thinking the same thing!!!
It’s Michael Weatherley
@@jamesb16616 I dunno who that is. But he sound gorgeous
now imagine if someone with the resources of an entire studio did this? It would be totally indistinguishable from reality
Or a little better than mediocre -- see Mandolorian episode 16.
@@failuremagnet that was CGI... not deep fake. Hence why they should use deep fake...CGI for people is crap.
@@madquest8 No, that was Disney's own deep-fake algorithm. Also the term CGI - computer generated images obviously applies to both techniques, but arguable even more for deep fake since it is actually the computer generating the images versus the user using the computer to generating the images.
And there in lies the threat of MSM and HOLLYWOOD!!!
We have seen how they failed with Star Wars Rogue One, where the deepfake was better than the studios attempt
You sir are insanely talented. Compliments from an old Trekkie like me.
The deepfake is impressive, but the editing brilliance is what really makes this video so amazing!
Leonard Nimoy and Deforest Kelley are the best Deepfake of the three ones, the surprise was Ricardo Montalban as Khan again
"I've done far worse than kill you. I've hurt you, and I wish to go on.... *hurting* you. I shall leave you as you left me -- as you left *her* -- marooned for all eternity in the centre of a dead planet, *buried alive!*
-- *KHAAAAANNNNN!*
McCoy looked like a stud on that body....he was a wirey thing back in the day...
@@Robert_Douglass Shatner and Montalban are perfect together. Just the right amount of over the top acting. But seriously, the two characters, Kirk And Kahn complete each other in a Batman Heath Ledger Joker sort of way. Trying to recast and reimagine it was poorly considered and even more poorly executed. Another great example of over the top acting in Trek and on the same theme is Picard's half mad quest to singlehandedly destroy the Borg."The line must be drawn here. This far, no further. And I will make them pay for what they've done."-Picard (angry and half insane, the best Picard)
@@kb9oak749 I did love that scene. "You broke your little ships. See you around, Ahab...." And then Picard quotes Moby Dick as only Sir Patrick Stewart can.
"And he piled upon the whale's white hump the sum of all the rage and hate felt by his whole race. If his chest had been a cannon he would have shot his heart upon it." Listening to that always got me in the feels. Apparently it got Stewart in the feels too -- supposedly this scene was his inspiration to play Captain Ahab in the 1998 remake of Moby Dick.
@@kb9oak749 : that is your opinion and mine is that the newest movies are great. It’s sad to see how many love to jump on the ‘Negative Train Review’ of these well made newest films! Back in the 1960s, watching TOS on a new color TV was the pinnacle of that technology back then. I was just happy that my parents had finally saved enough to get a color TV set. Benedict Cumberbatch’s Kahn was fantastic, he oozed menace and vain self-importance.
I never realized how much Chris Pine looks like a young William Shatter.
1:41 these shots are absolutely flawless. You have successfully crossed the uncanny valley.
DeForest Kelly looks pretty good jacked like Karl Urban LOL
DeForest was always a wiry but healthy looking guy, like you'd expect a country doctor to be who took care of himself. It's interesting to see him jacked...maybe he'd have jumped into more hand-to-hand combat with Kirk!
@Jerrol Hale Karl Urban is a chameleon - he just completely takes on any character he plays. He's like the Gary Oldman of a new generation.
@@HeadHunterSix Yeah, it sucks that he's not as critically acclaimed as Oldman, though. Over the years I've come to realize Karl Urban is one of the most underrated actors I've ever known! He did a tremendous job in Dredd too.
I'm a doctor not a Judge!
HeadHunter urban is awesome. Love that guy. Shame he can’t do a Cockney accent to save his life though (the boys)
Now do one where every character is played by Jeffrey Coombs.
Yes, definitely.
I would pay good money to see that.
Isn't that just normal Star Trek? lol
Brilliant idea.
Jeffrey Coombs rocks. His mere presence in a film is capable of redeeming the suckiest dreck.
Kirk looks 10 years younger than TOS. Amazing.
I'm not a fan of the reinventing the first crew but I have to have to admit, making the crew look young again is staggering.
Very impressive.
If one didn't know any better, one could almost *swear* that it really was William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelley in these scenes. You are insanely impressive with your skill at video/cgi editing. I'm just in awe....
It's well done but it's nowhere near as good as you suggest. Nimoy's face acting like Quinto's is just obviously wrong, and of course the hair and the rest of the body doesn't match. Same for the others. In some shots it's quite obvious that the computer didn't do an impressive job, either.
@@Argumemnon Good enough for me. Would be a "shut up and take my money buy".
They should redo ALL of the new Star Trek movies this way...it is uncanny how Kirk looks...incredible!! How beautiful to see...Thank You!!!!
I never cease to be amazed by the 'sweet spot' in deepfake: that moment when your brain triggers on the incredibly subtle morph of originalface --> deepfake! Even stepping frame-by-frame doesn't diminish that.
@@Argumemnon just stop it. if this clip was presented to you without you ever having prior knowledge of the source material, you wouldn't even notice.
Adding Ricardo Montalban was brilliant! He’s WAY scarier than Benedict Cumberbatch!
That is Beyond a shadow of a doubt!
Definitely!
He was a great foe for Kirk a match off of wits . Montalban shined in that role . ST2 was the best film but at the time I first saw it I was hoping more of them face 2 face not on a view screen.
I HATED Bernadine Cumbersnatch in that role. Hated him! What a horrible casting decision. Not only did Eggs Benedict looked NOTHING like Ricardo Montelbaun, he also looked nothing like any person that might carry the name "Khan". At least Ricardo Montelbaun looked vaguely like someone that might have some South Asian DNA. But worse, Benedict Cumberbatch's speech, mannerisms, and entire persona were hopelessly mismatched to the original character. It was rediculous, a total shit show!
@@mbaxter22 I could not agree more!
How could I miss this ? This fricking awesome !
And the editing presents the complete narration of the Kobayashi incident so well.
Not only a great tetchnical feat but a real masterpiece. Love it
When will they simply make entire movies like this??? When amateurs on UA-cam do a better job than Lucasfilm at this sort of thing, I'm not sure whether to cheer or cry.
Hollywood trying to bring back Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker was a shitty job. UA-camrs do it so much better
@The Monster Under Your Bed a big part of that is because you know what the other actors are supposed to look like. I've seen worse actors than deepfakes.
"My God, Bones... what have I done?"
"What you had to do, what you always do. Turn death into a fighting chance to live."
Ooh I’ve got shivers
Best Star Trek line of all time.. and explained James T. Kirk better then what modern POS writers have tried ever sense.
Das was du immer getan hast, trotz aller Widrigkeiten weiter ums Überleben kämpfen...
Damnit Jim, I'm a doctor not a pumped up sexy badass.
😂😂😂
I was watching Riddick last night and Karl Urban looked so different and the Thor film .
@@speedracer1945You have the greatest name!!!
@@speedracer1945 Karl Urban also was Judge Dredd
@@mr.battle20 funny you said that since I have it on bluray good film and much better than Stallone's Dredd .
This actually goes to show how good the casting was for the reboot. You can tell these are the old actors but they don't actually look that much different.
Best thing I’ve seen in a long time. The music & editing are brilliant. But good God man, the most impressive thing might be that you apparently heart all the comments! Well done.
Not really an easier place to give out free love.
Stellar job, a year from now we'll be making and watching full-movie deepfaked fanedits
The next thing they gotta work on is speech
@@scsi_joe That will be the most difficult thing as the actors didn't say the exact lines.
@@scsi_joe It's actually well on its way. AI voices are coming along. Some are already damn convincing.
@@MovieMagic515 Find the A.I. youtube Channel twominutepapers. It's already there. Get someone to say a few words, have the computer say them all.
@@wocket42 Thank you
Why wasn't Jeffery Hunter used as Christopher Pike as well? I mean, if you're going retro...
And while we’re at it, Bibi Besch’s face for Dr Carol Marcus as well.
Good point, Sulu on the bridge, Chekhov... bring them on.
@@williamstolley2165 I smell a sequel...
My guess is the limited source video
If they used Sean Kenney's version, it would have been really interesting.
I think this just highlights how specific Shatner's acting choices are and how they're truly unlike anyone else's.
This was even better than the others I've seen you do. The mash up between the old and new films tying in the Simulation test Kirk beat and the voice in's you did of Kirk and Spock as you panned over there silent faces was really incredible. This one told more of a story vs. showing us what the software can do. You're really becoming excellent at your craft adding a new perspective that draws us into the story so we're really int he moment with the original characters. Thank you for this. One of my favorite shows both old and new.
The originals are the best! Leonard Nimoy & Co. are dearly missed.
Shatner isn't dead so... I get your point
Man when shatner dies it'll be a stab to the heart, what a legend. Have the same feelings about Arnold Schwarzenegger and piers brosnan, great men in films
They aren't dead... They're exploring the Final Frontier.
i liked TNG much better.
Hey! You might be interested in our new project featuring Robert Picardo (Star Trek: Voyager).
ua-cam.com/video/VqI2rm1UpMY/v-deo.html
Honestly, this shows how well chosen Chris Pine was for a young Kirk, too.
Except the original Kirk wasn't cross-eyed.
Cazychel i agree
He does look like him but the script didnt have them act in situations the same . Not at all .
I think him and Carl Urban did a great job, Simon Pegg was terrible as Scotty though. The script was pretty bad, Kirk was made overly incompetent in all 3 flims, don't even get me started on Khan.
Indeed.
Feels more right. Though I think Ricardo could play khan at any age, it’s his voice and style that sells it.
Nimoy actually looks real on a lot of those. Quite spooky.
its so comforting to see William Shatner so young. It makes me forget i am 51 with gout.
jimmyolsenblues 51 and Multiple Sclerosis. I bet we both never thought getting old could be so crappy. Ah well. 🎵🎶🎵🎶always look on the bright side of life🎶🎵🎶
DO NOT TAKE ASPIRIN as it aggravates GOUT! Also, a pinch of baking soda in warm water and drinking it helps get rid of it in an hour. Only thing is there’s other dangers like high blood pressure. I’m not a doctor just a sufferer and trying to help. Read up on it. Also iced tea aggravated mine.
Gentlemen, gentlemen, you are but mere children...62 here, with MS and a plethora of injuries from a road accident 30 odd years ago...can't beat the original actors...all that chemistry still visible in this marvellous clip...
"only" 42 here and I actually dont give a flying fuck about my age.
anyway... any cgi would have been better than this deep fake. I think it's too much manual work to get people look authentic.
Good one lol
This is some of the cleanest DeepFake work I've seen, and you're using it on Star Trek. You deserve all of the subs.
This improves Abrams Trek immensely!
i'm sorry but this needs to be done for the whole movie please. i would pay to see that!
That Montalban at the end, completed this masterpiece.
Shatner has such expressive eyes.
This is pretty legit. I'm shocked how naturally their faces mapped onto the new class actors. It's not only a credit to their acting abilities but to the people who cast them as well.
Shatner has more charisma than even the latest Hollywood has to offer.
I'd say charisma, in general, is sorely lacking in modern Hollywood. Compare movie stars of yesteryear with today's stars. There is no comparison.
He has more charisma than the entirety of current Hollywood.
Dwayne Johnson is the only one in Hollywood currently who has similar levels of charisma.
I honestly never thought of Shatner as charismatic until now. Now I see it.
I remember listening to an interview with Rich Little on the Carson Podcast, and Little suggested that it’s hard to imagine doing impressions of modern actors because they are generally so interchangeable.
It's too bad Jeffrey Hunter (original Pike) isn't in this deepfake.
They've got young images & voice for him... iirc, he was in "The Searchers" with John Wayne.
I’d always said if they’d done the revamp 20 years ago, Ray Liotta as Pike. Maybe Gary Sinise as McCoy.
I thought that about Jeffrey Hunter also. Would've been nice if they could've fit him in.
@@mertz7305 I have always thought Gary Sinise should play Bones. Good to see this is not just me.
@@Hiraghm He was in a LOT of movies. He was a movie star before Trek. Dude even played Jesus.
Holy shit man you are the best. More star trek please!
Now that is some quality editing! I'd watch the entire lot all over again!
*Question* - Who is the last person you EVER thought would be deepfaked...?
*Answer* - Ricardo Montalbán!
Oh my stars...please just make an entire damned Trek film like this...
they could pay Shatner for voice over work only
The way things are going in Hollywood these days, they may have to do this for ALL movies...
Excellent editing of Kobyoshi Maru clips from Wrath of Khan and the Kelvin films. These are my favorite scenes from both movies.
1:22 I love how ripped Bones is
Packed on a lot of meat on those bones
By the way this is really well edited, that overlapping between TOS and Kelvin makes it all so much better
I think I simply enjoyed seeing Nimoy again. Miss that guy.
Couldn't agree more
I had a huge poster over my bed of Spock (Mr. Nimoy), my first idol. I also have Mr. Nimoy’s music album (bought when it first came out). My iTunes playlist has my favorite song from his album (unless things have changed, his albums outsold Mr. Shatner’s albums). Yes, I will always miss him.
I don't know why but I like it so much more with William Shatner face swapped.
Just the nostalgia makes it even better
Kirk looked like a pretty boy, Spock had a wimpy voice, and Bones looked masculine. Intriguing!
Bones looked identical 🤣
Remember, when Shatner was in his early twenties, he was a bit of a pretty-boy.
I can't wait until its time efficient enough to do the whole movie. This technology is an amazing and terrifying thing.
TBH with the models trained it could process about 80% of the movie in a couple hours. But: copyright.
@@FuturingMachine 😦 wait what? That's amazing 😳
@@FuturingMachine btw could you do it using patreon or something? Or is it copyright also?🤔
Oravankarva would be an interesting concept for a torrent, like with all the Star Wars edits to undo the changes. But the 20% of shots that didn’t work would take a long time to fix
Futuring Machine if that torrent should theoretically happen. Do let us know
This is flippin' AWESOME!! Very well done and edited with dramatic precision!
Damn that was awesome. Must have taken some serious processing power, most of the shots were looking just freaking perfect.
Impressive. My only complaint? Seeing Nimoy's face with Quinto's voice, that was more than a little creepy :=). Otherwise cool, ah if only... :=)
How is it that a dude with a just a home PC, in his home, can put out this high level of quality and Hollywood still can't figure it out?
Because his intentions are to entertain. He has no agenda, like Hollywood
wdym high level? this thing is used in hollywood with a better result
I also think this presentation is awe inspiring, if just a tiny bit weird to me. As one of the original fans from the 1960s, it seems so strange to see my childhood idols faces on new cast members ...... doesn’t mean that I don’t like it.
Actually, the Axanar movie CBS/Paramount killed several years ago was of Hollywood quality. Jealous that homegrown fans (the ones who kept ST alive so they can have the franchise money they have today) could make as good, if not better quality films (not for profit. Totally crowd funded) scared them.
So now, little films like this is all we get without paying
0:22 explosion is a heart. Nice touch Kirk
This eerily downright freakin AWESOME, specifically the end when both shout KAHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
This is amazing. One, for the obvious face and voice mashup, and, more importantly, the awesome connection between The Wrath of Khan and Into Darkness. Just wow.
Seeing Kirk looking young and pretty, and McCoy looking buff, it's weird.
This incredibly amazing to watch. I'm a hardcore trekkie and this just gives me tingles to watch.
We need the full versions of these movies because this is more like how their faces in these movies should have really looked, The big three were all conceived before Nero's arrival into the timeline, so there's literally no conceivable way that their physical facial features could differ from the prime timeline. And Khan, is an escaped, facist, who is right there in the middle of the Federation space, wanted for mass planetary genocide, think people, think, he has legit reason to have his look altered. He's a facist actually wanted for the murder of millions. Authorities are going to be after your wanted ass, youu wouldn't want to look like you either if you were him
Interesting premise and comment
For McCoy and Kirk the edits are pretty good but for Spock.... Holy shit that it seemless
It just shows how much the cast of the Kelvin films looked like their older counterparts.
Chris Evans not really. Quinto looks like he could be Nimoy’s gay son but his Spock doesn’t look like Spock at all. Or Kirk...or McCoy
The haircut certain helps it.
@@mem1701movies Chris Pine :)
...until he opens his mouth.
this is a movie I would actually pay money to watch

I'm speechless...this is incredible Future Machine, and thank you for sharing!
Wowowowowow I'm out of words! 😲
Here's some... It looks terrible
What about....fascinating🖖🏻
Yes, I can certainly understand how you feel!!! I watched TOS back in the 1960s when it first was aired. This is sort of eerie to me, to see TOS cast faces placed onto the new cast. Imagine how it feels to see such advanced technology, when I didn’t ever expect to see TOS episodes again. My parents had just bought a color TV, so being able to watch these episodes in color (instead of black and white) was a big deal! Now look at the fabulous technology that is used now, whoa ........ it is wonderful to see the new cast bring back TOS.
@@slcRN1971 Exactly!
As Paramount tries to erase William Shatner, you put him back in. Glorious.
The man is 90 years old and still kicking, biking. No matter what a studio will try to do, the man did it way beyond the norm, where no man... 👍
How are they trying to erase shatner? What an odd comment. He’s old af they aren’t going to have some old captain.
@@cameronfielder4955 They cancelled him for Star Trek Day.........
@@MarCuseus probably because Shatner isn't supporting the fact they are making Kirk bisexual in the new Pike series. Kurtzman and crew got butt hurt over it.
@@dal5x5 I have no idea if you're full of BS about Kirk, but given how Shatner has acted toward Takei over the years, I could believe he was homophobic/insecure enough to be put out that an alternate universe version of a character he used to play is being portrayed with a different sexuality than he played the character with. As if that would somehow reflect on him. That's pitiful, if it's true.
I never really had a problem with the actors aside from Cumberbatch playing a totally different character from Khan, Bruce Greenwood being just a little too old for Pike, Spock being way too emotional, and Chekov not being arrogant enough. It was the ludicrous plots and magical leaps in technology that really pissed me off.
I thought the casting was really good.. The writers, directors, and the guys holding the lights on the other hand... Oie.
@@hawkdsl writer was Kurtzman that is fucking the dead corpse of Star Trek to this day and director was JJ Abrams who after destroying Star Trek moved to destroying Star Wars so that says a lot. The cast for these movies was good though
@@quaronncz464 Yea, forgot about Kurtzman. So true on all accounts.
Kelins Kirk was a wimp where Shatner's Kirk used his wit to get outta a bad situation and the kelins Kirk turns to the crew and says , I'm sorry. ...WTF ???
@@speedracer1945 Who's Kelin? If you mean Chris Pine, he did an ok job with a daddy issue Kirk. In which the character was annoying and uncharismatic, but fit with the events of the rest of the dumb alternate universe that never should've happened.
2009 Trek's depicting of Kirk as a renegade by nature is not how the character developed in its original history. Kirk became what he became because of his experiences after joining Starfleet, not before.
I'd live to see an entire deep fake film of the new Star Trek .
"I don't believe in the no-win scenario"...spoken like a true BOSS.
Omg coming back to this one year later...
*Therapist:* Ricardo Cumberbatch doest exist, he can't hurt you-
*Futuring Machine:*
One of the great cinematic regrets is that Boris Karloff did not reprise his stage role in the movie version of "Arsenic and Old Lace," which made fun of the fact that the killer "looked like Boris Karloff." You could fix that.
Hand up if Kirstie Alley ever made your heart flutter.
Nope
She did, until I laid eyes on Meg Ryan.
Spank bank! =P
William is prettier lol..Wow.
Were is his Grand Daughter At lol...
In her early career yes. She lost me with the talking baby movies
I would pay dearly to see a full feature of this. But have the voices faked as well.
The movie industry really needs to start using this. Now these characters can live forever in the movies.
You forget how attractive William Shatner was as a young man.
Studios be like: Great , we dont have to pay Chris Pine anymore.
I know right, that diva wanna get overpaid too damn much, ridiculous
Only missed Jeffrey Hunter as Pike
Might not be enough visual samples for those ones
very true .
Or Anson Mount?
@@LtFoodstamp I think you could find samples of Jeffery Hunter in other movies from around the that time period.
@@gabrielabate6020 And Bibi Besch was on the soap Another World so you can find younger versions of her pretty easily
Khaaaaaaan! Was waiting the whole video 4 that!
The only thing left now is using a voice conversion technology where they take the original quinto voice and make it sound like Leonard Nimoy's. That would be a complete game changer in re-editing movies.
Yeah, who needs actors anymore when you can slap a face and a voice on anything and go with it?
Sarcasm, obviously.
Spock actually looks great. Unfortunately, Zachary's voice is not even close...
Problem is, to get the same voice you end up with COPD... :/
I thought Spock, Kirk and Bones were actually quite good in the new films. Just shockingly written and directed.
It just goes to show how perfectly Quinto got Nimoy’s mannerisms down that when it’s done like this it’s flawless.
Yes he did, he wouldn’t even play this role until Mr. Nimoy gave his personal approval. They even became friends.
Except the mouth. The mouth was wrong. Nimoy never held his mouth that way.
I thought the movie with pine and quinto was fine- it just wasn't star trek. it was kelvin. different product... different characters... different value and morality... and different ages. They were too young in the new movie.
I disagree. Quinto didn't reflect Nimoy's Spock at all. He was too angry. Vulcan was destroyed but Nimoy's Spock was still calm and restrained.
@@NavarinoDC that's more the fault of the writing than ZP's performance, to be fair. Not sure how he could scream at the heavens and then beat the crap out of Cumberbatch and maintain Nimoy's mannerisms
@@lnfreeman True. I don't blame ZQ, the writers didn't get that Vulcans contain their volatile emotions with the displine of logic and Spock has more turmoil than most, being part human. LN portrayed this beautifully but ZQs Spock's emotions were too close to the surface.
Wow, everyone looks so pretty. This is very impressive.
Can we just say how damn close Quinto looks to Nimoy? His bone structure and such are so perfect the deepfake is nearly flawless. The others look like deepfake faces shoved on the wrong heads but Spock is 10/10.
this looks amazing! please teach me your ways
he cheated
I'd like to know which software was used to morph those faces so well. I haven't seen the like for 20 years.
It is amazing and also sort of weird for me because when I watched TOS back when it first aired in the 1960s, I didn’t ever expect to see the episodes again. Geesh, my parents had just recently bought a color TV and that was a big thing back then. My dad (a veteran of WWII in the Pacific) would have loved to see the new movies because TOS was his favorite program.
It can be done on iPhone apps in similar quality
They are most likely using Deep Face Lab (github.com/iperov/DeepFaceLab ). It uses an open source machine learning platform to figure out how to transform one face into another. Fair warning--this software is NOT user friendly nor is it very intuitive to use. It takes a fair amount time to learn (and you'll need a decent NVIDIA graphics card) before you'd be able to produce anything close to this good. But once you do, the sky is the limit! Imagine taking a fan film and swapping in the actual actors (like what was done above). Imagine taking a scene from a movie and swapping in YOUR face. Imagine what you can do with adult material; like I said--the sky is the limit!
As for those face swapping apps on Android and iPhone--that's like comparing Legos to a commericial-grade 3D printer. The results are passable, but you'll never get anything as good as what you see here.
Looks great, I'm mildly disappointed you didn't use Jeffrey Hunter as a deepfake for Pike, but i can live with Bruce Greenwood :)
Agree.
It’s weird how everyone who plays pike is hands down the best at it.
JohnL2112 yeah... THE CAGE is one of my favorite episodes. Yet Greenwood won me over and Anson Mount (even though I don’t like those versions of Trek). But Hunter was great even if people think he was wooden. Shatner was great too in the first two seasons... then hammy
@@JohnL2112 don't jinx it
@@mem1701movies I agree with your assessment of Jeff Hunter. He always gave me the impression of a deep personality that didn't say much unless it was needed or called for. A good captain, but not necessarily a very extroverted one.
Oddly, I can recognize the original actors' characteristic expressions even when someone else's face is placed on top of them. It's as if the 1960s actors are doing impressions of their modern counterparts.
This does such a nice job of illustrating how perfect Zachary Quinto is for the role, in terms of physicality and demeanor. He practically already looks like Nimoy anyway.
Leonard Nimoy looks like he belongs in that movie playing young Spock.
