The job of an actor is to look pretty and say words scripted for them. When they say their *own* words… you get crap like this;

‘What a fool’: fellow actors criticise William Shatner’s space flight

Appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV, Collins said: “It’s amazing isn’t it? What a fool. Who wants to do that? No, absolutely not. Did you see Bill Shatner?

“He was in the air and they were turning him upside down. Let’s take care of this planet first before we start going off.”

Asked if he would visit space, fellow show guest [Brian] Cox replied: “No, absolutely not. I think it’s ridiculous. I remember watching [Sir Richard] Branson and Bezos going up for their 11 minutes or whatever …

“No, we do not need more spaceships. We’ve got enough crap flying around up there. We do not need any more.”

Shut up, morons.

I have zero respect for people who rake in outsized buckets of cash for playing pretend, then get pissy that other people are spending *their* buckets of cash on things they don’t like. *Especially* when those things promote the general welfare of mankind.
