PDF is fine if you have it? There are people who read the Daily Mail (UK website) who are still commenting on his "marvellous, full head of hair at 85". If not the report, they could use a good read of this blog. Another question on "Star Trek Continues", the amazingly well-done new version of TOS : Is that a weave on Vic (can't pronounce his name even though I'm just typing it) Mignognagnugna's hair? Or has he had his hair done to look exactly like Shatner's TOS weave? Anyway, it's pretty damn close, along with his spot-on impersonation-without-parody.Martyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10818958457859619199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-34120629653261423612015-03-17T07:10:24.458+01:002015-03-17T07:10:24.458+01:00Incidentally, i was brought to this website cross-...Incidentally, i was brought to this website cross-referencing "principle of reflection" & appearance & God.

In discussing the responsibilities held by Charles Washburn in Season 2, Cushman matter-of-factly mentions the times of day several cast members reported to the set, each depending on the amount of pre-shooting preparation that was required. Shatner was scheduled for 6:30 am, along with Nimoy (ears) and Nichols (make-up), for hairpiece application.TouperUpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-86672647297974316892015-02-09T20:20:07.965+01:002015-02-09T20:20:07.965+01:00I believe there is none in Volume 1.

But it would be funny if “NFW” meant that the TPA is going to thrill or astonish us such that we become useless flesh bags and unfit for society (or work). <br /><br />Ideas for TWOK. As everyone knows the plot centers on a 15-year space rivalry and its origins were dramatized beautifully in Space Seed. The two rivals meet again with Kirk pensive and self-doubting and Khan changed from a cruel but rational authoritarian to a psychopath! Both have experienced life and grown (or regressed), but importantly, they bring to the renewed conflict a completely different makeup and styling crew! Khan's breeding for intelligence and productive follicles is of course very, very significant and relevant. But ST is already exploring all these contours and brilliantly... so I can’t exactly help <br /><br />Another thing to consider is the follicular status of the film crew and the changes since TMP and Space Seed. Nicholas Meyer's head seems to be covered with nice fur; James Horner looks balder than Jerry Goldsmith, but it is hard to see how that is relevant to Shatner. Maybe this observation helps: Merritt Buttrick's (R.I.P) hair looks real in TWOK, but he's sprouted a very conspicuous lace line by Search for Spock. So there is that bit of true-to-hair casting, even if Meyer didn't realize it at the time!<br />geniecoefficientnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-65321885778995491392015-02-08T00:23:26.900+01:002015-02-08T00:23:26.900+01:00NFW = needs further workNFW = needs further workadidasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-30090805533758887752015-02-07T07:21:53.832+01:002015-02-07T07:21:53.832+01:00NFW: "nearing final...?" um...
