Chris Pine appreciation thread

I saw it (my library brought it in from another local library)...its pretty good actually. He is really young in it.

The bloopers are hilarious! They show a scene where they sing instead of doing the dialog. A HOOT!

I might get this one. From seeing the behind the scenes footage on Youtube it looks like he was having fun.

Hmmm, Confession, Princess Diaries 2, Blind Dating. Whew!!! $$$ Off to Amazon.
 
He's got some strong hair; when people think he's wearing a wig, I don't think so. I even think he's not wearing a wig in Bottle Shock. His hair is a fright in Bottle Shock, but I think it's his hair.

"You can step on my foot anytime," he says...

I agree. He's got lots of great hair. Yep, it's a fright in Bottle Shock and in a way I hope it is a wig. Lol. Have to watch the movie on my computer so I can grab some screen shots and take a closer look. Sounds like fun now that I think of it.
 
Now, who would try anything like that?
Yeah...jes kiddin. :lol:

He's wearing a real, tied bow tie, rather than a pre-fab clip-on one.
You know how to tie one of those?

Starquest, I searched Chris at Amazon, bought all of them that came up, and the boxful cost about $75, IIRC. Money well spent! Examining it in screen caps is a lot of fun, and you see much more.

You, my boy, should be king.

I agree, he says.

The princess finds out her mysterious, intriguing dance partner...

...is in reality Lord Nicholas Devereaux, also in line to the throne.

Jeez, these are gorgeous. I'd never heard of him before Star Trek and I'm sure glad I went to see it. From the moment he appeared in the bar scene I was hooked.
 
M', you can find anything on the interwebs.

Starquest, neither had I! I had no idea who he was, and he's really kind of gotten under my skin -- even more with these other movies of his. He's a talented individual. (Were you a Trek fan before this movie?)

(I wanted to tell you that if you need to get your post count over the picture and private message threshold, you can play the game threads -- like the five-word thingies, etc. Go around and look for games in forums. I don't know if Ensigns have a lounge, but the rank lounges usually have games.)

Keeping an eye on the princess.

Your task is to romance her...

...until her time to find a royal husband runs out.

Thanks, Jeri. That's a good idea. I was a fan of the original series and a Kirk fan but lost interest years ago. Now, here I am back with Trek and a nuKirk fan. Who woulda thought!

My boss gave me a netflix card for free Netflix for a month so I decided to put Princess Diaries 2 and Blind Dating as 1 and 2 in my queue. I'll watch them and if I really like them then I'll order them from Amazon.

Woo hoo. Star Trek on dvd in 3-1/2 weeks.
 
I was already a Kirk fan, too. That was pretty nice of your boss; my brother does Netflix. We've always bought them. Thank goodness we have a basement and don't have to keep all that stuff up here. We do rewatch things on the spur of the moment.

Having second thoughts?

What is a "lie dance?"

"We only danced for a minute and a half."

I'm on to you, mister!

Jeri, this is one i still haven't seen. Is he a good guy in it? I'm getting the impression that he has ulterior motives......?


STARQUEST: I'm fairly certain Ensigns can go into the Red Shirt Lounge...it hasn't been that long since i was in there myself. And i already cannot remember! No short term memory here!

aww those are amazing pics I do like Chris in that film.
Hey, I want to thank you for starting this thread. It was a good idea. :)

Jeri, this is one i still haven't seen. Is he a good guy in it? I'm getting the impression that he has ulterior motives......?
Not really; just for a short time they have a healthy rivalry. Both their egos are in great shape, and it makes for nice chemistry. Nick does have a valid claim to the throne, but he falls in love with her. Definitely a good guy.

That's why he's looking at her like that all the time; he really does like her right from the start. It's his uncle's idea to try to usurp Mia, and he's the one pushing it.

I have to go to the hospital this afternoon for a procedure. It will take a few hours, and I think I will feel ok tonight; but I might not post for a little while after that.
 
Is he wearing a double bow tie?
He's wearing a real, tied bow tie, rather than a pre-fab clip-on one.
Real bow ties look like they have two bows, one in front of the other? It looks so weird...
It's kind of like tying shoelaces; there's a knot in the middle, with a loop and an end on each side. It's the same with a bow tie, only the "laces" are wider and flatter, and on some, the free ends are also tucked back into the knot (as shown in the link I posted above) making two complete "bows", one behind the other.

Jeri, good luck with your procedure.
Echoing this.
