Michael Shanks Slash Talk at TT20

[Stargate674]

why isnt micheal shanks a stand - up comedian? he's sooo fucking hilarious

[RodneyisGodney]

"What up with you people?" ...gets me every time!:P

[Estetus]

I seriously can't picture Michael Shanks with Thor's voice. 0_o Is there ANY video here on youtube with him talking as Thor? I need proof!

[CampysPornShack]

Awesome, funny, and thanks to the convention-goer who shot the footage. Now I'm off to read some Stargate orgy fanfic!

[Amber474]

Yeah, seriously, "WHAT UP with you people?!" I still don't get slash, at least not for the SG-1 dynamic... Star Trek, fine, 'cause I really don't give a crap :P

[bloodyavenger]

hey whats he say b/w 0:41 and 0:43

[tribbleq]

Good for you daniel(serious), also he plays the voice for thor yes.

[PCoderch]

Wow, it is amazing his skills in deflecting all the gay insinuations while still keeping his warmth. Girls don't understand just how embarassing and hard it is for a straight man to talk about gayness, especially if someone interpretes his close relationship to another male as gayness. Some straight men are so paranoid about it that they won't even hug their own brothers. Girls don't understand that even though they can touch other girls and still be seen as straight, guys can't.

[XxIntegralEinxX]

Its only hard for a straight man to talk about "Gayness" if they arent comfortable with themselves :/ Which dosn't seem the case with him.

And thats not true. Most people do not view two men hugging as Gay. Its affection. Straight or not you can have a non sexual affection for someone you are close to.

I think society needs to get over themselves and make it so EVERYONE feels comfortable being close to someone.

And he seems confident and comfortable with himself, soI woulsn't worry about him xD

[tetrisclock]

I've heard the "not comfortable with their sexuality" argument too many times for my liking, so I invented a nice rebuttal:

If straight men who cannot discuss homosexuality aren't comfortable with their own sexuality, would a straight man who acted as gay and open as possible be more straight?

NO

I went to high school with a bunch of guys who did borderline-gay stunts and pranks and then accused the other guys who were repulsed by it as being, *ahem* "uncomfortable with their sexuality"

[tetrisclock]

Would a straight man be "comfortable with his sexuality" if he could stare at another guy's dick without getting somewhat repulsed?

Would a straight man be more straight if he could grab a guy's dick without getting repulsed?

That whole, "I'm not gay because I can joke about homosexuality and be calm around naked men" argument is flawed as it can get.

By that logic, a straight guy can screw another guy in the ass and say, "I'm comfortable doing that because I'm not gay."

[fcfcbarcafcfc]

@tetrisclock lmao true to a degree

[pickpock]

I suspect that it's also easier for him due to the fact that no one's saying that *he* is gay, just that they've got some ideas about a character he's playing ;)

lol, my guess is that the Jack/Daniel pairing would be around even with different actors.

We're just lucky we got the ones we have.

Michael is a lovely man, both on the outside and inside ^^

[parizada]

Also, I don't think he really intended to deflect the "gay talk", as he's discussed the subject of Jack/Daniel slash numerous times at length in various cons and interviews.

[katieyank]

doest he play thor!

[21Jumpstreet111]

yupp

[AmandaHow]

hehe funny

[kellykuk]

Can someone please post a transcript of what he is saying as i am deaf and i'm having a hard time understanding what he is saying? there are several of these slash talks here on youtube but i can't figure out what he says. Thank you in advance.

[bloodyavenger]

This is what he says: They photoshop us in various i don't know where she got these wierd positions. Various compromising positions and very proud of the fact and expected me to be as well. What up with you people? Rick and I, especially Rick and I messed with the characters. Um, Dr. Jackson. The listener is leaving and you must. Oh, Thor. Shut up.(Thor will stop the missles) Ok thats more important. I'm trying to save your life. before you do anythng you'd better get off the stage

[Ithilwen689]

It doesn't say "the listener is leaving" It's the name of one of Thor's ships, The Bilskner (or some spelling close to that.)

[buffypurple12]

Plus he says 'orders from the missus' not 'Thor will stop the missiles' ;)

[bloodyavenger]

i'm glad you guys corrected it. I wasnt totally sure. It's hard ot hear on my laptop

[AngelgirlTri9]

@bloodyavenger Thank you for writing it down=) I would have been sitting here all night trying to decifer him. I hate the sound quality on convension videos, but they're too good not to watch=^_^=

[sarahkellett]

[greekopoulos]

ROFL! omg that was HILARIOUS!!! ahahah when he started doing the poses was GOLD!

[emeraldhellfire]

Is that RDA talking in the backround?

[splinterblade02]

MS does the voice of Thor, that was probably pre-recorded.

[10thkingdomfanatic]

I thought it looked like he was throwing his voice. lol. If he was I love him even more~!

[Gatewhale]

[takenashinetoyou]
