I like Chris Pine’s Kirk, but I can imagine Mr. Olyphant as Kirk in the Kelvin films and doing a great job at it. I get that the Kelvin films Kirk was set when he was closer to Mr. Pine’s age. Still, I can’t help but wonder what a Timothy Olyphant Kirk might have been like.

If Abrams would have offered I bet Olyphant would have been great as Pike, for sure.

Zorque ,

Is it because he was too good an actor?

Which main cast actors in those movies do you feel aren’t particularly talented?

Zorque ,

Chris Pratt Hemsworth Pine is very skilled at being as generic as possible, Zach Quinto is very good at being melodramatic as fuck, but otherwise couldn't act his way out of a paper bag, Karl Urban can act when he wants to... but he was too busy chewing scenery trying to mimic DeForest Kelley's mannerisms in these movies to do any... everyone else was just kind of... there.

I’m not a fan of any of the Kelvin films other than “Beyond”, but not because of the quality of the acting. It is wild to me that you’re willing to disparage the performances of talented and hard working people just to shit some movies you don’t care for. Clown nonsense.

I think he’s awesome, very likable, especially in Justified. Raylan Givens is a great character.

ieightpi ,

Been watching it for the first time. Its been a lot of fun. Huge fan of Olyphant.

iBaz ,

The new one is pretty good, Justified: Cuty Primeval, but the original was great. Walton Goggins was an excellent villain.

correcthorsedickbatterystaple ,

have a hard time determining if Olyphant or Goggins made the show.

why not both?

rifugee ,

It was definitely their dynamic that made the show. In fact, I’m pretty sure that Goggins was only supposed to be in a couple of episodes.

ieightpi ,

omg yeah hes been great too. im looking forward to getting to the new series

He was great in Deadwood and The Mandalorian as well.

Mr. Olyphant was great as Cobb Vanth in The Mandalorian. Vanth standing in the entrance to the bar in the Mandalorian armor is such an amazing moment. It’s burned in my brain.

VoodooBluz ,

As soon as I saw him standing in that door, I knew exactly who it was. Helmet and all.

CM400 ,

TL;DR he was too old.

ieightpi ,

gah that sucks. He would have been aweomse.

Yes, but CM400 explained it in 1/100 of the words.

Holodeck_Moriarty ,

I think he would have done great.

cloudy1999 ,

Yeah, he has a mild ressemblance to 1960s William Shatter around the eyes.

EnsignRedshirt ,

He would have been wasted on the NuTrek films. He’d have killed it, stolen every scene, spiked the ball in the end zone and done a little dance, but Abrams and Kurtzman and the rest of those hacks don’t deserve him.

This comment manages to violate Rules 1, 4, and 6, all in one go.

EnsignRedshirt ,

My apologies, I assumed 1 and 4 were about treatment of other users, rather than more broadly.

Accepted - there are generally more productive and thoughtful ways to criticize something than slinging mud at actual people, regardless of whether they’re users.

As long as it doesn't violate the prime directive.
