Hmmm ...

No, not really ...

Not saying anything about his performance, but sexy physique? Meh.

Well sh¡t, if you don't want him, send him my way!

JWBear · 05-07-2009, 03:21 PM

Better than Shatner's was back then.

innerSpaceman · 05-07-2009, 03:40 PM

Yes, but do any of you remember what "buff" was considered back then? Or if not buff, then movie-star attractive? None of the male stars from the 40's through the 70's looked like they ever saw the inside of a gym.

Not overweight or flabby, mind you. I suppose just more natural-bodied, but alas not the kind of ripped, buffed-out, accentuated M's David muscularity that modern culture ... and yeah, modern gay culture in particular ... have led me to expect when I hear that some guy's got a sexy physique.

That said, I'm all prepared to have the most major crush on the new Captain Kirk after tomorrow night!!

Compare (this was about the leanist Shatner ever was)

SzczerbiakManiac · 05-07-2009, 04:00 PM

In this case, new hotness definitely trumps old busted

Yes, all men should be buff and all women skinny.

Wake up world!

innerSpaceman · 05-07-2009, 04:06 PM

Oh, I agree. Shatner should never have ripped off his shirt .... the ten or twelve times he did so during three meager seasons!

But if new Kirk is going after the same shirtless look, then kudos to him. If he's trying to be a young star for the new millennium, then it's back to boot camp.

Mickey Hargitay

Spoiler:

Hey, he's got two complete English language movie credits (both by way of his wife).

He's probably more buff in the film. Not everyone wants to work out constantly and eat nothing but "appropriate food" when not required to by a contract.
