That was awesome. Takei is such a classy guy who really doesn't take all of the Star Stuff seriously. I could barely recognize Fischer in that clip. She looks like a bloated Margot Kidder.
I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.
If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.
Even in jest, George was right, though. TWILIGHT and it's ilk threaten the very foundations of sci-fi and fantasy as we know it, with it's money-grabbing influence. I think the primary example of this would be the "Twilightization" of Spider-Man in the forthcoming movie. What other heroes or sci-fi characters are going to eventually suffer this same, hideous fate?
Will the next Batman be a an angst ridden boyman worried too much about whether he gets a scratch on the Batmobile or whether or not his cowl messes up his perfect coiffure to even care about fighting criminals? Would a new series of Star Wars movies feature a bunch of teeny bopper adolescent actors posing as adults and worrying about who is sleeping with whom or whether or not so-and-so likes me whilst the Dark Side takes over....?
Words to ponder on, my friends...
Oh, and if you happen to see any sparkly vampires, just throw some mud on 'em and mess up their hair. I've heard that's waaaay more effective than stakes or holy water.....
sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

Funny how Fisher gets all the physical hate...and not Shatner.
There's no need to judge women more harshly than men...they are both aging pudgy actors...you either like both equally...or hate them both...that's the way it should be.
As for Takei...well...it's an honorable stance...but unrealistic...for the core of the Twilight audience are female...those girls could give a crap about either Star Wars or Star Trek...sad but true...lol.
I'd just suggest we stick to Star Wars and Star Trek...and let all the love struck teeny boppers have their fun with Twilight...the world is big enough for the both of us...lol.
I think people are so used to seeing Fisher in her 1977-1983 look, that they tend to forget just how long ago that was, and that time has ravaged all of us over the course of 30-35 years.
And yes, if Shatner were to use the teleport now, he'd need TWO pads to stand on...

Fisher doesn't look horrible because she's fat and old, she looks horrible because she paid some incompetent plastic surgeon a crap load of money to mutilate her face.
