Stephen Collins (Decker from TMP) investigated for child molestation

Re: Stephen Collins (Decker from TMP) investigated for child molestati

Maybe for the 4k release they can add one of those screwy focus/blur effects in that scene so the top half of Decker is in focus while the bottom half is blurry. It would match some of the very odd focus choices elsewhere in the film created with split diopter.

Or they could use a fish eye effect to make it even more obvious.

Heck, they could go back and do that in new DVD and Blu-ray editions. Market it as the "Blurry Decker Edition."

Well, Paramount has taken every other opportunity to re-release the same material over and over again...

In that TMP angle shown above. I don't know why Collins wasn't given a cup or some padding to wear to make it less obvious. Shatner said in ST Movie Memories the pants were snug in the crotch.

Hey Man! You don't mess with Gene's future, sexy utopia!

Well, they did give him another uniform for the rest of the movie:

Maybe that was after they saw the dick in dailies, and probably there was no time to reshoot what they already had.

Well, I mean, technically, almost all of them do. Provided their fully functional, of course. But there, I'm mixing my generations. (And yes, I DID mean that both ways. )

As someone who mostly gets his news from the Daily Mail these days, this situation is getting more and more sordid.

Sad enough to trot out the black humor: the character shall ever after be remembered by many as Will Dickher.

Just as Bill Clinton is the sex fiend who was lurking between the Bushes.

Well, there still seems to be something going on there. Not that I spend any time looking at guy's crotches.

This is a special case.

He's checking out Kirk's ass.

In his book Chekov's Enterprise, Walter Koenig says the costumes came with a company-issued jockstrap because they didn't want underwear lines showing. Maybe some of the cast chose to go commando?

They can be uncomfortable if not worn properly. Haven't touched one since college gym around '71.

Or a crew of one, two inches long.

Re: Stephen Collins (Decker from TMP) investigated for child molestati

It is puzzling to me, and makes me assume he's guilty despite all the irregularities for one reason: He has never denied that the voice wasn't his and it was edited or doctored.

Instead his lawyer has been saying that she leaked it to the media, and tried to peddle the stories to various people, and so on...

Not too far off... I'm surprised this hasn't taken up all the media; normally celeb stuff like this does.

You know the Clinton one wasn't so bad because at least he did women who were of legal age.

Well, one particular consequence I learned from media coverage: now that 7th Heaven is toxic and no channel will touch it, none of his costars will most likely get residual checks from syndication ever again. That's unfortunate in and of itself since they have nothing to do with it, but some of them were infants and children when they started on the show. That money that's supposed to go to long term financial planning like college funds and trust funds is no longer income.

Re: Stephen Collins (Decker from TMP) investigated for child molestati

I Had zero knowledge of 7th Heaven until this story broke. I just though S Collins had been in TMP and a couple of other things and that was it. As a fairly hard core trekkie I'm wondering how I didn't know about it when the leads were Decker and Dr Gillian Taylor and it ran for 10 years! Notice Jessica Biel was in it too. Not to make light of the situation but maybe she could be in Trek 3 (Chapel or Rand)
