Is It Too Late For The Shat To Replace Pine?

Youre joking right?, is this ever going to end. between "bring back Shatner" and "it's Gabes Enteprise" and "will Archer be in the movie" I think i'm goind to really lose it.(I would love to see Archer, by the way) :devil: :brickwall: :brickwall: :brickwall:
 
By the way, I just checked in the Risen Christ after viewing this thread and the picture of the Shat.

He still weeps.

No, it's not too late. He could be digitially inserted over Chris Pine's body.

I still advocate the compromise position, that somebody rips out Shatner's eyeballs and stuffs them into Pine so Pine can have the right shade of brown eyes and Shatner can get a screen credit.

Well, word on the street is that Pine's wearing Ray Bans through the whole movie to bypass any such issue.

Plus, a side benefit as well - he'll look cool whether he matches Shatner's TOS gravitas or not!

All in all, I'd say ... brilliant!

Ah, but this is an entirely new spin on "Bring Back Shat".

Main part as TOS era Kirk.

It can be done. So long as he drops a few pounds and they employ the ol' face stretching technique used on Ian Holm in The Fellowship Of The Ring... well, seems feasible to me.

Would you call that too jarring a difference?

OMG!!! His hair is exactly the same in the before and after pics! I wonder how he's managed that after so many years? :p
 
Where did Quark put the tribbles!? :confused: :wtf:

Didn't I see him sell them to a time traveling old fart named...

wow! you are serious, yes, yes I would. The only way it would work is if they made a really realistic cgi of a young shatner and let him do the voice over. i could go with that. Kinda like Beawolf
 
ol' face stretching technique used on Ian Holm in The Fellowship Of The Ring was scotch tape behind the ears.

Do you mean the CGI technique used on Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen during the prologue of X Men 3 The Last Stand?
 
your talking about turning the clock back 50 years not 20, I mean they basicly made Patrick Stewart look like he did when TNG came out Shatners Head alone is too fat, needless to say it would be ILM's bigest feet yet
 
Exactly...but don't worry..I'm sure the Shat will find some way to get his "fare share" of the profits..(with the help of some attnys) ;)
 
Yes, it is too late for Shatner to replace Pine. Forty years too late, in point of fact.
 
Shat will be able to convincingly play Kirk in the year this movie actually takes place, decomposition notwithstanding. Put him in! :D
 
Yuk yuk. You should all be ashamed. Laughing at old people. Savor the fruit of life, my young friends. It has a sweet taste when it's fresh from the vine. But don't live too long...the taste turns bitter...after a time.

Holy shit, I just looked at the picture a second time. Someone should put the poor man out of his misery. Then Abrams can say "well, wit da strike overs, we's was dinkin' bout giving Bill Shat a piece-a-da action, but now are hands are tied behind a chair. Too bah. But whatta ya gun do? Eh?"

....put a beard on him and you have Ridley Scott. Dye the hair and beard and you have Jonathan Frakes.
