WEBVTT

00:15.200 --> 00:17.100
I basically in a

00:17.100 --> 00:19.500
wearing a sort of a

00:19.500 --> 00:20.800
jumpsuit

00:20.800 --> 00:22.800
Allah Michael Rennie in The Day the Earth Stood

00:22.800 --> 00:23.800
Still

00:23.800 --> 00:25.000
all I know I keep saying all I need

00:25.000 --> 00:27.100
is an 8-foot robot beside me.

00:27.100 --> 00:28.800
And so those words whatever those words.

00:28.800 --> 00:31.700
Are you guys know what those words are

00:31.700 --> 00:32.700
and

00:32.700 --> 00:35.000
then they just I do the scene and

00:35.000 --> 00:36.600
I pull my hair back

00:36.600 --> 00:37.000
and

00:37.000 --> 00:38.300
they're not sure what the guy is going to

00:38.300 --> 00:40.600
look like when he's revealed because nobody's told me

00:40.600 --> 00:43.000
what he is yet

00:43.000 --> 00:44.100
and we just sort of

00:44.100 --> 00:45.000
what you see is a

00:45.000 --> 00:46.500
We figure that they do a

00:46.500 --> 00:48.800
behind a green screen or a blue screen

00:48.800 --> 00:50.200
and then they just do this effect.

00:50.200 --> 00:52.200
Like he's a ripple effect.

00:52.200 --> 00:54.300
Like he's coming from the future through some kind

00:54.300 --> 00:55.700
of

00:55.700 --> 00:58.100
big Force that's bringing him back into the into

00:58.100 --> 00:59.800
the past.

00:59.800 --> 01:01.400
But and then I just, you know use I'm

01:01.400 --> 01:05.100
just using my voice, but they electronically alter it.

01:05.100 --> 01:10.300
to sound spooky

01:10.300 --> 01:12.500
probably that that episode with

01:12.500 --> 01:13.000
with

01:13.000 --> 01:15.400
Apollo.

01:15.400 --> 01:17.200
What is it you want

01:17.200 --> 01:19.100
you will worship me

01:19.100 --> 01:23.300
as your father's did before you

01:23.300 --> 01:25.800
if you want to play God and call yourself

01:25.800 --> 01:26.400
Apollo.

01:26.400 --> 01:27.600
That's your business.

01:27.600 --> 01:28.500
But you know God to us.

01:28.500 --> 01:29.100
Mr.

01:29.100 --> 01:31.500
I said you would worship me

01:31.500 --> 01:33.000
and you've got a lot to learn

01:33.000 --> 01:36.200
and so have you

01:36.200 --> 01:44.400
Let the listen begin

01:44.400 --> 01:47.200
welcome to Olympus

01:47.200 --> 01:48.900
Captain Kirk

01:48.900 --> 01:50.700
they too were well-written,

01:50.700 --> 01:51.900
but they were sort of

01:51.900 --> 01:53.700
reflective of their time to in the G.

01:53.700 --> 01:56.700
I think you could get away with more

01:56.700 --> 01:58.100
like

01:58.100 --> 01:59.800
just

01:59.800 --> 02:02.800
Just the scope was and it was a drama.

02:02.800 --> 02:05.000
It could even hinge on melodrama

02:05.000 --> 02:06.500
which ended but I don't think that's a bad

02:06.500 --> 02:06.900
term.

02:06.900 --> 02:08.900
I think it's just a style of drama.

02:08.900 --> 02:11.600
That's not so much embraced or shown any more

02:11.600 --> 02:13.100
but I think

02:13.100 --> 02:14.900
I think that all the Trek episodes have sort

02:14.900 --> 02:17.800
of touched on that to a degree

02:17.800 --> 02:19.800
because it's just a heightened sense of drama.

02:19.800 --> 02:20.200
And

02:20.200 --> 02:22.200
again, I don't feel like it's bad because hey,

02:22.200 --> 02:24.400
I've done daytime

02:24.400 --> 02:26.700
soap operas people can say is melodramatic to but

02:26.700 --> 02:28.600
then again,

02:28.600 --> 02:31.600
Sometimes it's reflective of life because life

02:31.600 --> 02:35.200
when people are under and stress situations,

02:35.200 --> 02:36.300
they get very melodramatic.

02:36.300 --> 02:37.800
Sometimes if you were looking at it from the

02:37.800 --> 02:39.000
outside,

02:39.000 --> 02:40.800
but it often is coming from a true place

02:40.800 --> 02:42.600
and to me acting if it was coming from

02:42.600 --> 02:43.600
a true place

02:43.600 --> 02:47.800
then it's real.

02:47.800 --> 02:49.300
Well, I really appreciated

02:49.300 --> 02:50.700
Patrick Stewart.

02:50.700 --> 02:54.600
I think that was a great casting choice just

02:54.600 --> 02:59.000
to have someone with that weight and you know

02:59.000 --> 03:01.600
in the fact that he had such striking look,

03:01.600 --> 03:04.800
you know, so commanding such a commanding presence and

03:04.800 --> 03:08.800
he was it was wonderful actually read actually read

03:08.800 --> 03:11.000
for Riker when it was first dumping gas.

03:11.000 --> 03:13.500
And of course, mr.

03:13.500 --> 03:15.700
Frakes had a little more tvq than I did,

03:15.700 --> 03:17.900
but and he did a great job.

03:17.900 --> 03:19.500
Abso

03:19.500 --> 03:20.700
but that would have been so alone that would

03:20.700 --> 03:22.000
have been a lot of fun to

03:22.000 --> 03:22.800
have been a

03:22.800 --> 03:23.600
part of that show.

03:23.600 --> 03:24.300
But I

03:24.300 --> 03:26.400
yeah, I really appreciated his work and

03:26.400 --> 03:27.900
I think the casting on all the shows has

03:27.900 --> 03:29.300
just been

03:29.300 --> 03:30.000
Stellar.

03:30.000 --> 03:30.600
I really do.

03:30.600 --> 03:32.700
I think it's a great.

03:32.700 --> 03:34.100
Great Ensemble

03:34.100 --> 03:38.900
almost every show.

03:38.900 --> 03:40.600
I do think Star Trek

03:40.600 --> 03:42.100
does give

03:42.100 --> 03:44.500
give this provide those positive role models.

03:44.500 --> 03:46.800
And I think that's why it has such a

03:46.800 --> 03:49.800
occupy such a great place in television history and

03:49.800 --> 03:50.800
and will

03:50.800 --> 03:53.100
probably always be there in one form or another.

03:53.100 --> 03:54.200
I think that

03:54.200 --> 03:56.900
the success of all these Series has shown that

03:56.900 --> 03:58.900
there's a hunger for that

03:58.900 --> 04:00.400
that's sort of

04:00.400 --> 04:03.400
it's not only just escapism but a hopeful

04:03.400 --> 04:06.400
vision of the future and there is always

04:06.400 --> 04:08.700
these Heroes that are that are part of

04:08.700 --> 04:09.200
The

04:09.200 --> 04:10.800
crew

04:10.800 --> 04:17.300
in whatever situation they find themselves in.

04:17.300 --> 04:18.500
All the conventions are great.

04:18.500 --> 04:20.200
I think just because

04:20.200 --> 04:23.200
it's wonderful to meet the fans and

04:23.200 --> 04:25.200
they're very

04:25.200 --> 04:27.700
they're very complimentary of your work

04:27.700 --> 04:28.500
and they

04:28.500 --> 04:30.900
are very appreciative of your work at even as

04:30.900 --> 04:32.800
a guest star speaking as a guest star and

04:32.800 --> 04:33.600
they

04:33.600 --> 04:35.300
can look at my

04:35.300 --> 04:36.400
at my

04:36.400 --> 04:37.600
life in Star Trek

04:37.600 --> 04:38.300
and they

04:38.300 --> 04:39.800
and they've seen it all, you know, they seen

04:39.800 --> 04:42.900
all the episodes by and large and they

04:42.900 --> 04:44.600
You know a lot of them dress up as

04:44.600 --> 04:46.400
the characters and I think that's great, you know

04:46.400 --> 04:48.300
because they take pride in

04:48.300 --> 04:49.500
how they look and it's there.

04:49.500 --> 04:50.800
I think it's their escape,

04:50.800 --> 04:52.200
you know, their

04:52.200 --> 04:53.600
their

04:53.600 --> 04:56.500
their way of expressing themselves for that weekend, and

04:56.500 --> 04:58.000
I just appreciate it.

04:58.000 --> 04:59.200
You know, I did a lot of people,

04:59.200 --> 05:01.000
you know, say you think we're weird don't you

05:01.000 --> 05:02.300
know, I don't think you're weird at all.

05:02.300 --> 05:03.200
Thank you.

05:03.200 --> 05:05.100
I think you're having fun more power to you.
