And the Oscar goes to... William Shatner

William Shatner received acclaim for his acting skills in an article today on www.washingtonpost.com - regarding his performance in Star Trek III:

"Our beloved hero Admiral Kirk has just found out that his son is just murdered, stumbles backwards and falls, then declares in a dramatic outcry, 'You Klingon bastard, you killed my son.' He then musters the strength to get up and utters the line more emphatically and angrily. It's not so much just his declaration but the reaction shots from his friends and colleagues Scotty and McCoy, who look onward with equal grief with glistening tears in their eyes, sharing the shock and grief of the moment. . . . People joke about men crying in movies but I say, hey, it's dark and who is going to see you?"
-Joe Darr, 42, Bowie, MD

Can Chris Pine stack up to Bill Shatner? That is why we are here.
