Some people don't really age well...

Case in point, Carrie Fisher, who here replies to Shatner's "Star Trek vs. Star Wars" gauntlet. Weight and age aside, who the heck is doing her eye makeup? Just a bit more and she could pass for an alien visitor on EITHER set.

Substance abuse and bi-polar disorder tend to have outward physical effects. Her story, which is the subject of a couple of her books, isn't pretty either.

She makes me wanna barf. Her boobs look like "hangers" and I'd kick that out of bed. Her face looks like it was hit by a truck too.

I'm sorry to hear her life is a shambles. I always liked her as princess Lea.

You just had to go there, didn't you? Oh well, so much for dinner.

I have an autographed picture of Shatner, if anyone is interested.

Um, I bet she is doing her own. There is usually a vast difference between how someone sees themselves in a mirror, how the world sees them, and how the camera portrays them. This is why there are professional makeup artists, and why they make a good living!

She was in a movie 10 or 15 years ago and I didn't even recognize her. I don't remember the name of the movie, but it was a supposed biography of a porn star of the seventies. She looked so bad then, I'm afraid to open the link in the OP and see how she looks now. I haven't had my coffee yet.

Star Trek always had as its moral underpinnings Kant's categorical imperative. It was always the traditional struggle between Bentham and Kant and almost all the time Kant won.

Star Wars opened in the theaters in 1976...that was 35 years ago.

Carrie Fisher was probably in her 20's back then.

I wonder how many of you studs on this forum aged gracefully after 35 years?

Lets post some "before" and "after" pics and decide!
