On January 29, the 92-year-old Shatner sounded off regarding a woke EU “guide” that would banish words used in the early-days opening of the television series – a “guide” that suggests “phasering-out” lines such as, “To boldly go where no man has gone before!” Supplying screen-shots on X from the original article that tells readers about this EU language “tool kit,” Mr. Shatner took a low-key, sincere approach to the information he had read. And it’s information that easily could cause many sensible people a lot of vexation. Paramount is avoiding using or featuring in any way their most ICONIC character, William Shatner's Capitan Kirk! William Shatner took shots at Paramount over the handling of the Star Trek franchise and the erasure of the most beloved character in Star Trek history, Captain Kirk. Prompted by a question from X user Herostraous, asking, “But will we ever see Captain Kirk again?” William Shatner took a recent Paramount Star Trek Originals promotional image, with a poster with every captain from every Star Trek show on the image, but oddly, Captain Kirk is missing. William Shatner wrote along with the image, “All you have to do is look at the Paramount graphics to answer that question.” His answer sparked outrage from fans, chief among them pop culture experts Nerdrotic, Doomcock, and The Critical Drinker. Nerdrotic posted, “This is a crime against Star Trek.” Doomock said, “This is a travesty. Captain Kirk is the heart of Star Trek and without Captain Kirk, the whole thing is a SHAM. God bless #WilliamShatner and the immortal character he created. My childhood hero. Thank you for all the joy you brought me, Bill. You’re the best.” However, the discussion didn’t stop there as another fan asked William Shatner, “Has anyone at Paramount come out with an official explanation for this MASSIVE FLUB?” Shatner replied once more, taking more shots at Paramount over their handling of the series, stating, “It’s not the first time it’s been going on for years. It makes no difference to me that a group who think they are “enlightened” (or whatever they think they are) obviously feels threatened by the Kirk character. It’s a character from a 1960’s TV show- get over it.” CHECK OUT FANDOM PULSE: William Shatner Blasts Paramount For It’s Erasure Of Captain Kirk, Saying They “Feel Threatened” By The Character SUBSCRIBE TO ADAM POST SPEAKS: Follow ADAM POST on Twitter: ADAM POST email: adampostmediagroup@ ADAM POST twitter: @comicswelove #startrek #dei #woke
