Beverly in "All Good Things"

Re: we do get to see an aged Troi in "Future Imperfect"

that is set in 2383 a mere four years after the date of Nemesis

How the hell do you work THAT one out?

Was there an eighteen year gap between a coupleof the movies?

I think your maths may be a bit off.

Is everyone here blind or illiterate?

Mind you, although I am not a McFadden disliker, I didn't think her portrayal of age was quite as good as her makeup. It wasn't bad or anything, but it wasn't great.

I always got the impression that they had a hard time with her makeup. Gates' acting in the makeup seemed strained and uncomfortable, as though she were afraid of moving too much and pulling some of her prosthetics loose. She seems to hold her mouth and neck very stiffly.

Here are a couple of shots from the present and the future. I think she looks like she has quite a bit of make up on in the future. (Or maybe she has a lot of make up on in the present!)

A lot of makeup in "AGT," but that's her actual hair. McFadden wore a wig in every other episode.

^^Not every other epsiode. I believe that season 1 was her real hair, and most of season 7 was too. I could be wrong about season 7 though...

Xerxes - simply re-stating your false assumption does not prove it right.

I could type "God created the world in six actual days", 5000 times but that would not make it true.


Or do you believe that, too?

Tulin please point out my supposed error instead of acting like a fool. A literal reading of all my posts in this thread should absolve me on any of the "math mistakes" you seem to think I am guilty of. I have made comments on the date of "All Good Things", "Future Imperfect" and "Nemesis". Are you looking for some slight phrasing of language that will prove you correct? I am not the one who started this.

Future Beverly is HOT.

I was trying to be wry: either she is youthful and has a lot of ageing make up on in the "future" sections of AGT; or, she is as she appeares in the "future" sections and they've had to apply lots of remedial make up to make her appear youthful in the "present" sections of AGT.

Re: we do get to see an aged Troi in "Future Imperfect"

... I'm a little confused here, you just proved MY point. It says right there in the script that it is 25 years in the future. Season 7 of TNG takes place in 2370, which means that it the future timeline takes place in 2395. So the anti-time future was not 2383 like you said...

I was talking about "Future Imperfect" for 2383(as per the headline of my original post). Do you know of others episodes where Troi has grey hair? That is why I posted it. She clearly was not in the future of All Good Things.

My apologies, I never read the titles as they are almost always just "Re: [title of thread]". I thought you were saying

that [All Good Things] was set in 2383...

As this thread is about Beverly in All Good Things, leaving out that first half of your sentence completely changes what your entire post would mean.

I'm sure you can understand the mix-up. I have not seen anyone place the first half of their first sentence in the title, leaving their post starting in the middle of a sentence before...

Gates McFadden (and Marina Sirtis thinking about it) both peaked in hotness towards the end of TNG up to and including Generations.

Completely, completely, completely agreed.

Fanboys - tediously sexist but at least consistently so.

*Sigh*

really, wesley is the lesser evil of the crusher family. should have stuck to pulaski from season 2 onwards. beverly herself is of course no match yet for the most annoying personality in all of star trek, deanna troy. never understood what they were thinking, the whole persona was ill conceived, dispensable, and sirtis' dreadful acting didn't help.

 

[LaBarre]

How is a couple of heterosexual males saying that Gates McFadden and Marina Sirtis are hot sexist? Should we have included Riker?

Well, I for one wouldn't have expected that your particular self-defined "heterosexual males" would find Riker rated a mention at all, given the context of your comments.

But then life is all about learning, I suppose. Was it when there was some grey in his beard that turned you off?

You didn't just call GMc and MS "hot," you gave them a deadline in their lives for what constituted hotness.

That says far more about your attitude then their attributes.

It's not attractive.

Revisting my earlier post:

It's not just fanboy; it's sad, sad, fanboy - AND plastic to boot.

Um... that's not sexist. As a young man, I just don't find older women past a certain general age sexually attractive. Saying that a particular woman was hot at one age, but is not sexually appealing anymore at their current age, is not sexist at all.

 

[LaBarre]

If - at the get go - you had said I am a "young man" and "I just don't find older women past a certain general age sexually attractive" when you wrote what you did then I would have had no reason to include you in my response - but THAT is not what you posted.

I can't be expected to read your mind - just your post - and based on what you've now said, your original post does seem to lack the thoughtfulness and context that this one now provides - don't you think?

 

[LaBarre]

All I said was that they peaked in Generations, and I have to say, when I saw them in that movie, I peaked as well (how's that for 'middle school graffiti'?)!

I see serious backtracking on your part - but it doesn't cut it.

Kudos for the brave effort, though.

 

[FinalFrontier]

Seriously, LaBarre, it just seems like you're trolling right now. Perhaps you should just let it go, and let the thread get back on topic.

 

[LaBarre]

Guys, go read your own posts.

Not my job to either remind you of what your wrote, less so to correct it.

My job is merely to be seriously embarrassed of the results.

And I am.
