Star Trek + NIN video
Monday, September 11, 2006
On this five-year anniversary of 9/11, I give you one of the greatest YouTube videos of all time.
It’s Star Trek + Nine Inch Nails = Closer.
“What if they hadn’t made it to Vulcan in time?”
William Shatner (as Captain James T. Kirk) and Leonard Nimoy (as Spock) get, uh, closer to god.
This is a homoerotic masterpiece of editing. The Star Trek footage has been treated to look just like NIN’s original “Closer” video. Try listening to the song now without picturing Shatner and Nimoy. You will fail.
