  • I LOVE SHATNER!!!!!

  • I hope I'm just hallucinating, but was that John McCain at 3:24?

  • Only William could pull this off..

  • 0:49--you're gonna need more than two Stormtroopers to take out Captain Kirk.

  • te gek.

  • What's interesting is that at the very end, you can see Spielberg telling George Lucas "Great way to open the show..."

  • Lucas looks like he is about to cry.

  • Star Strek. Changed. EVERYTHING.

  • so great :)

  • Long live th Shat

    He just got cast as Dad in the new CBS show based on the twitter site Shit my dad says

    Best casting ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You serious? They are making a show based on TWEETS!?

    The world is really going to hell.

  • @morbidchid

    Serious mate. I know it is not the best idea for a show and god only knows how they can make it work but Shatner would make a good Dad. Some of the comments he already makes are fantastic.

    They are making a pilot for CBS and I think it is to air next September, but your right, I would have thought someone could have come up with an original idea rather than just copy a Tweet. I will however still watch just to see if the Shat can pull it off

  • HOLY FUCK IT'S LUKE SKYWALKER!

  • Haha little did any of them know that Shatner's the legend, live long and prosper William GO Montreallllllllllll

  • "You can call me Mr. Shatner."

  • if the Shat could find/hire some talented writers  he would be be a force on the music charts ...hes rapping, isnt he?

  • "Star Trek changed everything."

  • fan tas tic

  • EPIC When he says: "Star Trek changed everything." LOOL

  • Jesus, thats one hell of a frog chin/neck

  • HOLLY SHIT....THAT WAS AWESOME

  • 4:05 George looks terrified at what's to come next, and then at 4:10 he's all like "Oh he made another funny!"

    >_>

  • omfg this is freaking great

  • Never knew Shatner was such a comedian.:-)

  • Shatner is a class act :-)

  • He is, and a great one at that.

  • Storm trooper kick line... EPIC!

  • Truly epic!

  • why mark hamill isn't next to harrison ford? I mean they were two importatn pieces of the sagaand Mark is far from Lucas.

  • Maybe the reason is that Harrison Ford did a number of films with Lucas, whereas Mark Hamill only did Star Wars, and this is a tribute to the man, not just one movie.

  • True, but harrison was also in indiana jones... and probably made him 2 or 3 times as much money ;)

  • @knowthywolf101--- Shatner doesn't "sing" That's the point. Look up Shatner does "Rocket Man"... It's a classic.

  • what song is that,

    like the theme

  • Sorry, guys; William Shatner is not "singing" to George Lucas.

  • Mark Hamill's face at the beginning is priceless

  • That was some song.

  • whats with lucas's neck

  • There are several sand people living in it

  • star trek 4 ever

  • hi lareouuss!!!!

  • when Shatner says "it's George isn't it?", Lucas laughs like "like anyone DOESN'T know who I am...:" lol

  • i think only person that can ask for water as singing is william shattner.

  • Peter Mayhew of course was Chewbaca, although he almost couldnt wear the suit. He was having "cold suit" issues, we got it working though and he performed without problem.

  • More inside info...

    All of the Troopers were members of the 501st Legion... Not actors or dancers. We were called upon and went though choreography for 5 days prior to the show.

    Our choreographers were 2 of the original choreographers from the dance show Solid Gold, Kevin Carlisle and Anita Mann. This was also the first time the two had worked together since Solid Gold, there was alot of celebration about that back stage.

  • What a fun night!

    I was the left trooper of the pair that enter at 0:49...

  • Hamill's face was priceless

  • I love the Hammil reaction shot at 0:9 to no end! lol

    "Star..WARS?!" XDXDXD

    And Howard the Duck? Oooh...*cringes*

    lol I love this so much, it's like two of my favorite things colliding!

  • This is GENIUS

  • This is so good.

  • This Makes Laugh And Cringh, All At Once ! Go Shatman.

  • ROFL!

  • How can you do a spoken word version of a rap song? - He found a way.

  • that is not a rap song...... my way was written in 1969 by paul anka for frank sinatra, based on the melody of a french tune from a few years earlier than that.

    jay z did a cover of it. he did not write the thing.

  • You obviously didn't see the futurama episode where no fan has gone before. But thanks for the info, fucktard.

  • u idiot

  • NO U

  • Oh Bill. You lovable scamp. What IS a scamp anyway?

  • @MikeSkullman a scamp must be William Shatner as everything is William Shatner

  • George does'nt look too happy at the beginning.

  • George and the rest of the audiance had no idea what to expect. Most of the show was kept very secret as to what was going on.

  • This show of good humour and sportsmanship should be enough to stop that that SW vs ST bickering, eh?

  • I LOVE IT! I FUCKING LOVE IT!

  • one of the best Shatner moments EVER!

  • Hahahahahahaha!!!  Shatner rules! ★★★★★

    Katalyzt

  • read Steven Speilberg's lips at the very end....

    " I thought he was gonna ruin the show"

    I think that's what he said.

  • He said "what a way to OPEN the show"

  • Yup...You're right!

  • This man never stops to amaze me.

  • Mocking yourself with one of the biggest geek-battles ever known.. awesome!

  • OMG!!!! COOOOL!

  • That was very cool!

  • the best of the AFI's shit!!!!!!!!

  • Hahaha, LOVED it! :D

  • mus139, he's successfully entertaining a huge crowd. What the fuck are YOU doing, douche?

  • Great Great Video! Really Really THANKS!!! that moments will be in our memory for ever! Long life to Star Trek ! ;)

  • Greatest surprise ever on AFI Lifetime achievement award.

  • This was one of the greatest bits in award's show history.

  • the song is called "my way". i like the elvis version best

  • Yeah, Elvis' version is the best. Powerful.

  • @cvjucla3 no way man sid vicious is wwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy fukin better

  • WO WHAT A CROSSOVER!

    TREK WARS!!!

    XD

  • @doctorwhoobawooba well the biggest difference between Star Trek and Star Wars is that former is about trek the later is about wars. Logically Star Trek is way more desirable....unless you are bin Laden or Dick Cheney

  • God Bless you GEORGE!

  • Who is that at 0:29 ?

  • @cmspores Warren Beatty

  • Find the beat, Billy. lol

  • George Lucas' eyes were just shining with the wonder of a 'star' struck boy! He really loved Star Trek, and if I'm not mistaken, this was actually the first (?) time he and Shatner were in the same room together (correct me if I'm wrong) but its obvious that he has a great deal of affection and admiration for William Shatner whose ego is larger than life and we wouldn't have him any other way-

    "You can call me Mr. Shatner" LOL!!! That is so TOTALLY SHATNER!

  • Not alot of people are aware of this, George is a massive fan of Star Trek and he considers himself a Trekkie. He credits Star Trek (alongside Flash Gordon and Metroplios) as inspiration of making Star Wars. (If memory serves me rightly) he went on the set of a few Star Trek films and was good friends with Gene Roddenberry.

  • These stormtroopers were not clones (the round ones) the earlier ones were (FYI in the "expanded universe") that's why I want one of those suits since I too am too short to be a stormtrooper!

    ; Q

  • i love it when he says:Star Trek changed everything, Lucas had this incredulous face, he wanted to hide under the table!

  • I love how bill in a way makes fun of george, but in a way, that every movie fan can understand, really means to say that he is impressed, and appreciates his work.. its a fun thing, and I love how they both do it, especially george's reaction

  • hey at 0:39 i saw lando!

  • 4:23 my lip reading skills tell me spielberg is saying:

    "what a way to open the SHOW. that was extravagant."

    can anyone better at lip reading improve on this?

  • poor George, he looks so bewildered

  • He has a beautiful voice, and he can in fact sing. But he is so far out that he will never give Frank Sinatra a run for his money. He is a real comic.

  • harrison ford was peeing himself you could hear him through the entire thing laughing

  • Strepitoso Bill Shatner! Ti avrò nel cuore per tutta la vita! Un mito! Protagonista di una grandissima serie che ci ha donato valori nobilissimi ! For this..thank you so much! You are the best.... Italy loves you!

  • 0:51

    Take him away, boys.

  • The SHAT! Emperor of The League of Awesomeness

  • Shatner is THE BEST!!!!!

  • "More than you could chew-bacca

    ah shut up"

  • I love the crowd reaction when the music started to play. They knew what was coming. LOL!

  • lol Mark Hamill's face was priceless.

  • William Shatner: GREATEST, RAPPER... EVAR!

    Star Trek FOREVER

  • Carrie's lips are scaring me

  • that reminded me of when luke was brought before jabba. Though crowd.

  • What Shatner says, "Star Trek changed everything." It looks George was imaging himself force chocking the guy. XD

  • xD i know he was like *all darth vader voice "DIE"

  • Whenever Bill does one of these singing things they should be called Shatnerings. He's the only one that could make these work and be funny.

  • This was perfect. I laughed my ass off.

  • Mark, Carrie and George were like... WTF?

  • live long, you've already prospered enough

  • the star wars fans will kill him.

    the star trek fans will idolize him

    after seeing this

  • But hey, he's Bill Shatner, he can hit anything.

  • ROTFLMAO!!!!!  This is GREAT!!!!!

  • lol love this vid

  • Star Wars? lol

  • .... fcuks sake

  • Gotta love William Shatner. :D

  • ford is cracking up :P

  • Live long, you've already prospered enough...

    LOL

  • shatner rules

  • Shatner is the king!

  • One stormtrooper was taller than the other. The one on the right.

    I thought they had height requirements.....

  • they were clones... supposedly exact replicas... cloning technology is slightly behind in reality.

  • So then wouldn't they STILL be the same height?

    And good ol' Georgey decided to change that slightly. The troopers from VI and on are a mix between recruits and clones, since the clones age double as fast. But there still are clones of course.

  • Well, a clone at age 15 would be shorter than a clone of age 25.

  • why isn't chewbacca's speech available on youtube?

  • That was amazing. Oh, Mr. Shatner, it is impossible not to love you!

  • lol i love the storm troopers

  • aah William Shatner's so cute here! lol

    I swear he's still got it and I love that about him :D and the comment of the hair was sweet :) omg when the storm troopers (or zylons?) dance, and then Shatner himself starts dancing, it's sooo funny!! aha I love when Shatner gets speeches, always loved that in the series too of Star Trek, he's great <3 aha @shatner getting carried away XD

  • @babyinblack You mean Cylons? No... They're StormTroopers =]

  • Could be Borg drones in disguise :P

  • LOL ^_^ I also love HF's constant laughing... William Shatner is honestly legendary :)

  • lol @ Han Solo laughing his ass off with Admiral Kirk :)
