I have to say.

That would make this game the best one ever.

Agree 100%

He'd probably do it, too.

I love him in Boston Legal!

I have to say, putting Shatner in this game would be brilliant indeed. Particularly having him read the tech descriptions with his semi-serious "why don't you all just get a life" attitude.

Sorry Bill, some of us have regular jobs, and aren't multimillionaires from an overrated tv show. I know if I had a few mill in the bank, I could definitely "get a life", be more exciting, date supermodels, hang with Donald Trump, drive ferarris, ect., ect.
j/k, I dig Bill, he was really a cool guy in that movie "Free Enterprise" too.

I think the diference is that Mr Shatner has enough independant income from his residuals and side agreements he made when he first did his shows and his investments that he can cherry pick his jobs when he feels like working.

Because we all know, William Shatner changed the world! (Just ask the history channel)

Reply #16 March 14, 2006 7:58 PM from GalCiv2 Forums Top

heel do anything for a buck

but it would be cool for him to make voice cameos or even a pic of him when you make a entertainment center

I was browsing those "celebrity playlists" at iTMS, and one of William Shatner's favorite musicians is Eminem. Thought it was kinda funny. Guess it makes more sense considering the crap he got from music critics for his own solo albums though.

They should try to get him if they make a GalCiv III, and you know they will.

I am reporting both of you to the SD moderators for abuse of the forums.... basically, you need to put a warning on your posts if it is something that people should not read while eating/drinking, etc. I'm sure that your posts have caused a number of people to die from choking, and that's not counting the number of people who sprayed their beverage all over their PC, thereby ruining it.

P.S. I am kidding... this was hilarious

Wow... now I can't stop imagining what it would sound like to hear Shatner reading that Monty Python description for soil enhancement.... Wow. That would be so great. I would probably lose my job, and end up with some sort of giggling related illness, but it might be worth it.

There actually *is* a Tiberius system in GC II. For you *Harry Potter* fans, there is also a *Severus* system. (No; I have no idea if there are fields of mandrakes on Severus IV, even though I DO have a shipyard and several farms on the planet!)

This really is the best idea I have ever heard on these forums!

How about Erik Estrada? okay, it wouldn't make as much sense, but there is a website where you can hire them to ptich your law firm, and Mr. Estrada presumably works much, much cheaper.

Reply #24 March 17, 2006 6:16 AM from GalCiv2 Forums Top

Erik Estrada? Why stop there, why not Gary Coleman? or Tony Danza?

Pop Fiction ideals:

Brady Bunch (populists)
Scooby Doo & Shaggy (pacifists)
William Shatner (technologists)
Cmdr. Amidala (universalists)
Darth Vader (war party)
Blade Runners (industrialist)
Neo / Mr. Andersen (Federalists)
Han Solo (merchantile)

Any other ideas?
