Revelation

[dieastra]

I just had a revelation. I was wondering all the time whom the young Shatner reminded me of. I found him. It's a German actor named Götz George (who is only seven years younger than WS) and apparently it seems I do have a type! LOL

No, no - you're right, because even their expressions are the same !

I've tried hard to find matching pics and this was the best I could do. If you like, put the name Götz George into google and see what else pops up in his different ages young and old. He also has an impressive chest ;) You can see it here for example:

Iowa - Berlin connection.

Cpt. Kirk has a German doppelganger!

Re: Iowa - Berlin connection.

Indeed! That would have been fun if he had played one of the Nazis that caught Kirk in an episode.

Wow! That's uncanny!

I came here from the LJ Home Page, and your entry is #53 there with a green arrow (heh!) beside it pointing upward, which I presume means it's trending upward. Congratulations!

I tried to take screencap but I'm not on my own computer, and the function seems to be disabled. Sorry about that!

[dieastra]

It is! In case you don't know yet - I am watching the original Star Trek at the moment for the very first time in my life, and I immensely enjoy it. I also already purchased every Kirk figure in every different outfit that I could find ;) They are still on the way. I have no money left after my UK travels but I have fun.

Haha really? I never use the homepage, I go to my friends list directly. I just had a look and while I couldn't find this post, I found the Weeping Angels one on 43.

At least with that one I understand it, as I posted it on the Doctor Who Community and it surely had many hits. But this one? How come so many people found it? Unless they have a google search for everything with the name of William Shatner... which is possible of course.

I didn't want to bother to put it on Tumblr but now I wonder how it would do there LOL Maybe I'll do it yet. Don't worry about the screencap, I have had so much fame already ;)

very similar, lol! crazy how that can happen...

[dieastra]

It's uncanny! But now that they are both old, they are not similar anymore LOL

And you have the most perfect icon *drools*
(I am still watching two episodes per day, season 1 almost finished, but I have spoilered myself on youtube with all those clips of shirtless Kirk LOL)

[wanderingsmith]

you are welcome to the icon, lol

I assume you are spoiledred as to what happens in the movies?

[dieastra]

Sadly I only have 15 icon spaces which I have to use carefully. Otherwise I would have a picture with every actor I ever met, which would be quite a few ;) It was already hard to get Matt Bomer in there somehow. I'll have to see what I can delete to make space for a hot young Kirk.

If not I might download it anyway though, just for keepers.

I got a William Shatner biography from the library which of course also is a lot about Star Trek as you can't really seperate those things. The author did a short summary of each movie but I am not sure what exactly you mean at the moment. Regarding shirtless? Or regarding him getting old? Or do you mean his death? I'v watched that on youtube as well already.

[spaciireth]

Definitely not just you! It's quite a striking resemblance.

[dieastra]

Thank you for confirming it, I thought I was seeing things! I am quite occupied with this at the moment, watching two episodes per day. Totally hooked. Today I watched the one with the Horta, at least now I understand the action figure display I recently bought!
