Kirk vs. Picard couldn't be a fight to the death. They both always spare their adversaries at the last moment, proving the goodness of mankind. Remember the Gorn?
Um... It depends if you're the main baddie or just a henchmen. If you're of lower importance, less likely you'll be spared. (It's just how media does violence. I find it a disappointing plot hole, still)

Mentioned that i wasn't necessarily a fan, but i appreciated his work. Ended the conversation with, "It was a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Shatner." Didn't just get a laugh... Man called William freaking Shatner to tell him about our conversation. Asked "Want to speak to him? He's also Canadian." And then said to me, "looks like he hung up."
love Mr Shatner but his work on Boston Legal is his best work ever , he just fires on all 8 cylinders and how can you beat Denny Crane and Allen Shore , an underrated comedy duo
Cpt. Picard was more of a diplomat than anything else,you really have to shake him hard to bring out the fight in him but Cpt. Kirk was a cold warrior who has no fear of launching Starfleet regulations out into space and blast it into a billion pieces.

It's hard to tell where the truth ends and where the make believe begins, but it's easy to believe that at some point William Shatner, Captain James T. Kirk of the USS Enterprise, really was living out of a pickup truck camper going from appearance to appearance. It kind of reminds me of the characters from the film Galaxy Quest, except perhaps even worse off. It's interesting to think about how a celebrity can go from fame to obscurity, and then back to fame based partially on the nostalgia of a maturing audience.
@@GarretGrayCamerawell he had divorces, 3 daughters to take care of, times when he was between jobs especially right after star trek ended, because the idea of residuals for reruns didn't exist yet. Only shows that had their first airings after the new rules were passed get actor residuals so 50s and 60s shows are still much cheaper to air.
He had NO money, the WHOLE cast, who admittedly kind of hated each other, did the voices for the cartoon. He recorded that album because there was WAY more money in music.
They say it’s true and there’s pics of the camper! Yes shatter has said it was the divorce that really wiped him out and she took the home etc… so … he lived in his vehicle for a while!
When I was a kid, Capt. Kirk was my hero. I wanted to be just like him and I really liked his hair - wanted mine to be the same. I was balding badly by age 19. Life is irony!!
I think even Patrick Stewart would admit Picard isn’t a strong hand to hand fighter. Captain Picard would more likely talk his way out of a dangerous situation.
@@shuboy05saying Picard isn’t a strong fighter is just flat out wrong. In his youth he was shown to take on several Nausicaan’s at once and was pretty much dominating until he was attacked from behind. He obviously got less reckless after that, but he still knew how to handle himself. He just prefers diplomacy.
@@tylerdude1982 I do remember Picard being capable of fighting back in his youth but I also remember Soren kicking Picard's ass while Kirk was able to handle Soren later in the movie. Granted that is an issue I had with Generations' script.
Picard wasn't a fighter he used his intellect but so did kirk. Lol. That was brought out in the movie where Picard needed Kirk's physical ability to defeat malcolm McDowell.
He tells a similar story about this period in his life. On one particular day, thinking about how ironic it was, that he was gazing up to the moon listening to a broadcast of the moonlanding, while he "the man of the stars" was laying in the back of his car homeless and feeling forgotten by the world. That day was July 29 1969, when Niel Armstrong became the first man on the moon. Shatner has lived quite a life. Legend.
the star trek timeline is amazing, the enterprise when new was commanded by captain april, then changed hands to captain pike , the enterprise was constructed in the year 2245 so it was already 21 years old when james kirk took command , spock had already been on the ship 11 years with captain pike
I'd argue Pike shouldn't be counted in the lineup with Kirk, Picard, Sisko, etc. because his pilot didn't go to series. It's just not the same thing. He was officially a guest star in the series when the pilot footage was reused. Not to take away from his significance. William Shatner watched Jeffrey Hunter's performance before playing Kirk.
5:00 I miss this Audiobook/Book-Adventure. A Shame is, that there where only 9 of them :-) A Full dramatization with all Original-Voices would be a dream , that never comes true....
You want to remember him as Captain Kirk....I want to remember him as Robert "Rack" Hanson....town veterinarian in over his head in "The Kingdom of the Spiders"
Oh, you mean when Picard fails to beat Soran the first time, when Veridian III and what's left of the Enterprise D (thanks a lot Deanna 🤬) gets obliterated from the level 10 shock wave? Or when Picard gets his ass saved (yet again) by Kirk from the Nexus, (a PlayStation restore point) on the replay?! That "Generations"? (It came out in '94, this was '98.)
Debs husband says comparing the two is like comparing apples to oranges. Captain Kirk was high energy and spontaneous whereas Captain Picard was stoic and reserved. Both were decisive and were both great captains.
Kirk and Picard have different approaches, their IS no critque of "better/worse" for anyione! Picard's words could ego-strike pretty smart and that can hurt worse than a fist, considering some of the aliens he was really disguested with. Kardasians for instance. never cared for reptile people myself. Kirk would have just ran up jumped over the desk and punched David Warner in the face and forget the damned 5 lights in a 4 lighted room!
@@alanstephen3371 unless you're talking about the reused footage from the Cage, the person playing the severely burned and paralyzed Captain Pike in that episode was not Jeffrey Hunter.
I watched the originals when I was 9 years old and I had high hopes for the sequel but Stewart played the captain like a Shakespearian character and I HATED IT. Shatner was not only dramatic (Picard's only trait) but he brought real humanity and a great sense of humor to the character and other depth while Stewart's portrayal was one dimensional. Kirk wins.
Captain Kirk NEVER gave up his ship and would die to protect her and his crew. No other captain has carried himself as captain Kirk. He is the original. I grew up watching the original series. 63 yrs later, I still watch the original series on DVD. One of my ringtones is the original series theme song. I worked at INTEL manufacturing wafers, microchips. TRUE STORY: at an event at Intel, on stage an individual made a mistake recalling Capt. Kirk's passing the Kobayashi Maru claiming Capt. Kirk failed the test. I stood up and straighten him out and told him how Capt. Kirk was given a commendation for original thinking. I was later awarded a prize from Intel for my efforts.
Actually, the original first captain was Christopher Pike which was played by Jeffrey Hunter. This was the pilot and it was called "The Cage" from 1965.
If facing a deep space creature of unknown intent and capabilities I'd probably want Picard, but if facing a fleet of Warbirds Kirk better have his butt in The Seat or I'm hitting the escape pods.

Next time ask him what he did to be so young at like 93. I know he used some time dilation trickery. Einstein equations say he can travel in time by approaching the speed of light. We have aged but he hasn't. I guarantee he knows something we don't. He probably really was on that ship and his age stopped. Tell him to come clean about it.
He's of Jewish ancestry as was the oldest woman that ever lived (to 122). With all the inbreeding a number got longevity genes and a few lucky ones like the French Jewish woman get a set of longevity genes from both parents. If it is the genes and not just random luck, you are essentially aging slower, so at 70 you might have the average energy and ability of most 50 year olds. It's a big advantage but even among Jewish people who are more likely to have the gene odds are they have a single copy so probably just live a couple of years longer than average with the normal health problems as they age. I suspect if they checked his DNA he got it from both sides and thus is not only living long but is youthful as well.
@@tlatosmd You're talking about close inbreeding. Jews are distantly inbred which has positive factors to it. (Can be negative as well, DNA is a roll of the dice). According to an Icelandic study being distantly related is ideal rather than no relation or being a first cousin or something like that.

"Are you Captain Kirk" ? Very heartwarming.
Especially with the timing of this interview, I wonder if maybe this story was part of the inspiration for Galaxy Quest.
Gotta love Shatner's humor.
He does have that droll comedic delivery … I like Shatner , wish he could make up with Takei and the rest .

God bless William Shatner.
A true living legend
Still my favorite Captain!
I have always loved William Shatner ever since Star Trek in the 1960's. Still enjoy watching him host "The Unexplained".
Shatner actually was an excellent actor in "Star Trek."
I've always loved the drop kick he would do.
He still looks good for his age. But obviously he was 25 years younger since this originally aired in 1998.
He would have been 67 at that point.
This is a useless comment but its funny
No, he still looks good for his age hah
Having seen him recently he’d look better if he lost some weight, but all things considered he looks damn good for 92.
Everybody knows that Kirk would beat the shit out of Picard. 🤣
First he would slap him, then do that two handed thump thing 😂😂
