    You'll not get an argument from me, however ... STAR TREK never won an Oscar for Best Actor - supporting, or otherwise - that's for certain. And if anyone ever deserved one, it was Sir Patrick Stewart. No doubts there, huh? :cool:

    I thought he did well. :shrug:

    So the answer to your question is, no.

    If anything, Pine tends to oversell heavy emotional moments.

    So no.

    No. Actually, I think he walked the line between creating his own version of the character while still making him recognizable as a version of Jim Kirk -- and without doing a Shatner impression -- really well.

    ^ Yes, I twigged to what you were doing. But I wanted to branch out into something a little more interesting than just needling each other with puns for an entire thread. ;)

    Pine's performance was okay, it's just the character he is playing who is irritating.

    So this is just one more in the still-growing series of threads consisting of setup in title and punchline in opening post?

    From last time:
