Shatner couldn't defeat Malcolm McDowell without Patrick Stewart's help (and sacrificing his own life). Bowie is clearly a more badass Brit than McDowell, ergo, Shatner has no hope of victory here.

I vote for Henry Rollins? Yeah. This was a good SAUS, even though practically everything great got dropped out in the first round.

Over and out.

You

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN't possibly vote for anyone but Shatner on this one.

I can't get behind that.

Here is what I believe is the paradigm that would be effective and what I would love to see, and you're going to laugh because Fox News is my model. What Fox has done is they've got a guy, Roger Ailes, who's passionate and has created a model for a 24-hour news station that makes money based on a point of view... Using Fox's model, find someone with the passion and the huevos to just lay it on the line - not in a partisan way, not in the pursuit of political power and political gain, but in the pursuit of credibility. In the pursuit of being a judge, an arbiter, and earning the trust of the audience over time as an oversight to the shenanigans of the political world.

The Bowie fans are cruising for a vicious SHAT ATTACK!

Basically, Shatner and Bowie are the same person. Each possesses an equal amount of the following:
  • Hair Awesomeness
  • Layers of Makeup
  • Inexplicable Power Over the Opposite Sex
  • Weirdo Fan Bases

Clearly, the only way to decide this showdown is by a Battle of the Sidekicks!

Shatner has:

Bowie has:

You could argue for Spock's longevity as a character, but let's be honest, Spock was a fucking killjoy in every situation.

Whereas Bowie worked alongside Muppets. Shatner was never that cool.

A case could be made for Bones being the equal of any muppet. Plus Spock and Bones version of Who's on First is something that could destroy the universe.

No, I'm afraid that only Scotty is the equivalent of a Muppet.

Bones was more like ... one of those angry, bumbling villains from Scooby Doo, the kind who would've gotten away with it had it not been ... you know.

He'd fit right in the upper box with Waldorf and Statler. Plus Chekov is at least as much of a muppet as Scotty.

Here. Educate yourself.

Unless you're worried

THAT'S TOO MUCH KNOWLEDGE!

Wow, no shit?

Now I must find another ludicrous and completely arbitrary criteria.

Thanks a fucking load, Deni.

(Though technically, I said Muppets. Miss Piggy is merely one Muppet and does not satisfy the criteria by her lonesome, though I digress. I will find another inane argument.)

I just adore those darling PriceLine commercials.

Mr. William Shatner, it is!
