anyone else notice how bezos just throws the open champagne bottle into the dirt after spraying it on everyone? pretty nice metaphor don'tchyathink??

[@chaotickreg7024]

No metaphor, it's all realism

[@johnrivers3813]

“Sir that bottle was 1,500-“ “So?“

[@corncobjohnsonreal]

Ahh, I get it, he was metaphorically littering which is symbolism for covering the Earth in garbage

[@ericclaptonsrobotpilot7276]

Real life Bond Villain tries to get a recovering alcoholic to fall off the wagon.

[@phillip5245]

This is recreating the famous scene from Star Trek II where Kirk lands in the California desert on the outskirts of San Francisco.

[@markh.9822]

Actually Star Trek 4 was set in San Francisco

[@djangofett4879]

@@markh.9822 nah, I'm pretty sure it was star trek 2

[@jimreily7538]

Star Trek 2, the Journey Home, a true 5 bagger

[@Nickelodeon81]

dudes it was Star Trek 0

[@marksummers666]

Shatner lives in a neighborhood near mine, and his dobermans are a _constant_ topic of discussion (and ire) on Nextdoor. He's become a local legend in that nobody can stand him. Pretty impressive in your ninth decade.

[@Morale_Booster]

"It looks like a vip tent at Coachella" hahaha

[@divinuminfernum]

someone commented on this somewhere else on yt - i think Internet Today, that Shatner is also a recovering alcoholic and his wife died from alcoholism - if so, spraying champagne around him at that moment just adds to the overall insensitivity of it

[@maknavickas]

Can't be a recovering alcoholic at 90-something lol, because at that point obviously, the alcoholism didn't take you out.

[@kf7721]

It looks like a vip tent at the Electric Sun Desert Music Festival.

[@RNorton86]

I feel like this clip will outlive us all as an nft capturing the moment when reality and pure comedy clashed in such a way to transport our world as we know it to some new clown universe. 300 years in the future, families will leave up a hologram of this clip for 2 or 3 weeks, exchanging gifts on Shatner Day.

[@YearsOfLeadPoisoning]

Jeff Bezos has somehow made the most amazing human accomplishment look lame and pathetic. The ship is made of paper mache hahaha

[@matingilardi]

"I think if they go up they should come back." LOL

[@Samrothstein87]

Shatner speechless has just found the meaning of life & saw God, meanwhile a mini rave with Bezos popping Krystal rages around him. Hilarious

[@K.Goldie]

I happen to love William Shatner, and growing up in Montreal enabled me to see where he grew up and he came from humble beginnings. When his wife drowned, he built a recovery home for women trying to recover. He is actively involved with them and on his own time. It's not just that he financed it. He's a good man with a big heart and I will always be proud that he's one of "ours".

[@pointysidedown]

Cohen, Shatner, A Y Jackson and Andrew MacDonald are some of the best to come from Montreal ❤

[@BoycottChinaa]

Shatner helped give Aliens confidence enough to prevent our destruction, which is nice. Solar and battery tech from our space program seems popular now, wish we'd kept it up but moronic narcissists embarrass us on the world stage instead, handing those opportunities to nefarious nations as a result

[@YODHOMMÉ]

Wtf is this comment format

[@patchso]

@@YODHOMMÉ: Two thirds left justify. It's in the Format menu.

[@supercrass]

Bezos must have hired the engineers away from Cinco to design his spacecraft.

[@dom9641]

in the latest red letter media "half in the bag" review ( i love how 'on cinema' tim spawned off of that show way back btw was funny to discover as a more recent fan of their channel) and mike stoklasas said this about shat before talking about halloween and it had me in tears: "shatner has launced into space on top of a giant penis... his likenenss in the form of michael meyers is launced on a streaming service called PEACOCK... coincidence??? i think not!" lmfao

[@scottmckelvey]

@@sub-vibes ATSTs! ATSTs!

[@Life-Glug]

@@sub-vibes it broke new ground!

[@dom9641]

me personally, i think its VERY cool

[@YearsOfLeadPoisoning]

That Mike Stocklasa is a huge Star Trek and Shatner fan, only to have Shatner personally tear them down over Twitter is absolutely hilarious

[@kurks001]

This comment was borderline experimental!

[@johnrivers3813]

I don’t think they’d installed a toilet on the spaceship and Shatner realized that too late.

[@robertbirch62]

Hahahahahhahaha the fact that Bezos blasted that champ all shitty then said I wanna hear this while Willy is like trying to say some profound bullshit hahaha.

[@taranullius9221]

I wonder if I'm the first full Australian to comment on this video.

[@BrokenFistX]

Post script: Shatner is a recovering alcoholic and he was bathed in champagne

[@kayleennilsson5542]

*commence champagne regardless*

[@josephnotoempire2949]

Bezos needs like Grace Jones to walk his leopard on a leash for more Bond villain vibe?

[@mustard3450]

Loved this bit

[@ST-xg3gy]

Shatner looks like the Michelin Man. And a "Blade 3" reference???

[@Crunch_Buttsteak]

LOL too bad Shatner wasn't in Blade 3

[@jackstraw262]

Just like when he returned to space in Star Track IV

[@jogreeen]

Wonderful actor

[@LettuceBeFrank]

space is the place

[@weedtaco1443]

Why’d I think this was going to a live leak type of “tape”

[@37Kilo2]

Billy boy trying to convey his life changing experience in all seriousness. Then Dr Evil grabs a bottle of champagne and just starts spraying all over the place like a dumb frat bro. So awkward.

[@CapybaraMMA]

Bummer, was hoping for more Blade 3 talk

[@Crunch_Buttsteak]

I agree, watching Tim briefly ponder Wesley Snipes & Blade 3 was oddly fascinating.

[@java4653]

3:16 is the moment Jeff gets distracted by the inane couple. So weird.

[@jwilli726]

that Andre Hyland? Haven't seen him since triple dippers

[@BuyingScratchoffsFTW]

This is fricken hilarious

[@Tokolos]

Search for Schpock.

[@JprimeWorld]

Lmao this planet

[@Zilla__man]

Im gonna take a shatner

[@xamesm]

how can I pay for this?

[@michael-coyne]

Old Shat deserves better than to fly to space with a group of adrenaline and champagne addicts!!

[@8523wsxc]

Yeah... not really though. He's basically Trump-like Twitter asshole minus the political ambitions.

[@michael-coyne]

I’m aware, just using sarcasm. I don’t really think those people are champagne addicts

[@broncotrolly]

He needs a nice calm space trip with normal men and maybe some hot tea

[@michael-coyne]

@@broncotrolly yea Like Sir Patrick Stewart and earl grey , who wouldn’t enjoy that

[@patchso]

That spat between Shatner and Nemoy about not coming out of their trailers seems illogical to me.

[@Exodus26.13Pi]

Captain Kirk is a living legend.

[@mo_____2719]

Pain

[@kipkapper3014]

effin head of hair.

[@pvyuki]

lots of trailer wars in moonlighting.

[@Weda_Bretajune]

Lol!

[@jackmace6531]

I get that he needs people in the podcast but man is that guy with long hair annoying and dripping of guilt that he’s only there because he’s friends with someone successful

[@HumanBeanbag]

The two guys in the background on computers can go too.

[@witherinstein4399]

They got s h after good lol

[@GathererThompson]

They act like folks never walked on the moon. ...

[@HumanBeanbag]

Omg Randy Newman is terrible 😂

[@patchso]

You Sir, should show some respect towards the Captain. When you join Starfleet, you agree, implicitly to respect rank. Just because he doesn't always share your political opinions is no excuse for insubordination.

[@mnoble999]

It’s really cool how you run your fingers through your hair. You used to be cool bra. Make a song about it.

[@cagedweller6223]

Huh

[@rugbyslug]

Bezos: Alriiiight, I got Captain Kirk, my hot new girlfriend, hell yeah!
