This Just In!

Bill will be appearing at the unveiling of a wax figure in his likeness at the the world-famous Madame Tussauds wax museum at 11:30am on Wednesday, November 4, 2009.

The museum is located at 6933 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California, a couple blocks west of the Mann's Chinese Theatre.

How is it possible to capture charm & HOTNESS in wax?

Charm & Hotness - Is there an app for that?

Bill in the next Trek movie? Sigh.

This just in, from Cinema Blend:

The West Australian reports that J.J. Abrams is considering including Shatner in the sequel to his widely loved and successful Star Trek reboot. "I would love to work with him," Abrams said at a press conference. "It was a foregone conclusion we wanted him in [Star Trek]. The problem was his character died on screen in one of his Trek films and we decided that we wanted to adhere to Trek canon.” Abrams further said that he felt they had more of an opening with the sequel to find a manner in which to reintroduce the older Captain Kirk.

In fact, Abrams and Shatner are even joining each other for a “dinner date.” This may be more serious than we thought, guys. Anyway, I have faith in Abrams being able to pull off some sort of time-machine-portal-hole-thingy that will bring old Kirk back to life. And maybe if Shatner gets the job, he’ll stop crying on YouTube about the whole thing.

As Logan would say to me: Really? Really? It's a lot more fun to hear Bill complaining about not being in the Trek movie than it would be to actually see him in a Trek movie.

But as they say on TV, stay tuned...

Apple + Trek = Love

Got email today announcing the new iMac. And what image did they use to promote it?



It could only have been better if it was a picture of Bill. Maybe that's the new screensaver!

Bill. Shirtless. Shaving. Acting.

The quintessential triple threat.

Bill Accepts an Award...

... for a movie he wasn't even in!

The biggest award of the night was the "Ultimate Scream" and Star Trek was up against some stiff competition. Actor Morgan Freemen presented the award and after he announced Star Trek had won, the crowd got a surprise when William Shatner stepped onto the stage to accept the award. After taking the award, Shatner stated (via AP):

"J.J., I’ll handle this," Shatner said to J.J. Abrams, seated in the audience, who also won best director and best sci-fi movie for "Star Trek."

"This movie was big," Shatner said. "Imagine how big it could have been with me in it? … I’ll be waiting for your call."

A FAVORITE VID!

Not sure if we've posted this before but it's always worth a second play. And a third. And...



Yay, Tjonesy, Killa and Hafital! And thanks, Mike M., for prompting me to look for it.

The good old days

More pics here. And be sure to turn up your speakers to listen to the commentary. "The yellow package." LOL!

Thanks, OTT!
