He’s fought Klingons, lizards and living rocks, but one of Kirk’s greatest battles is with the word “sabotage.”
In this famous outtake, the Canadian actor argues with the director about how to say the word.
Topless Robot and others have said J.J. Abrams use of the “Beastie Boys” song “Sabotage” in Star Trek was an in-joke based on this clip.
Did Kirk win this battle? Is there a word you always pronounce differently than other people?
