WIL WHEATON dot NET: 1.5

Hehehe! I'm the first one to comment for once! Have you seen the the interview with the cast of "Lord of the Rings" on MTV with Good Charlotte? You should. It's pretty funny! =P

First post?!?

Cool. All very cool.

Got my San Fran tix for the midnight Tuesday showing at the Metreon, so I am set... BTW, caught Nemesis yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised to see you weren't completely cut out of it...

Book! Now that is what I really wanted!

But it was also great being able to get a picture and seeing Wil in Nemesis.

mmm... a festivus for the rest of us.

Yo Wil,

Any official comment on your screen time in Nemesis? My friends and I were shocked when we saw you there on the side of the screen during the wedding scene. From the posts you had made, we'd thought you were totally cut out of the movie. Did you expect that you'd still be in this scene? Your name was even in the credits. Damn, yo!

GALLERY NEEDS RECONFIGURATION

WTF??
oh well.. got to see a few shots before i got the error...

Good to see you didn't go with "bleach the hell out of it and then dye it blue"

Happy Holidays

Just when I thought I was about to catch up with my reading :-)

Does sound like an excelent book, good call there chap.

Wil & The Screen Savers in one place? Sa-weet!

This is one happy monkey :-)

Dude, you missed Michio Kaku's "Beyond Einstein"

That book was what got me started in string theory oh so many years ago.

The other extremely cool thing about Kaku is that he answers email in a helpful manner (nothing terse or forced).

Very cool guy!

wOOt! I can't wait 'till Tuesday now, and I think that's the first time I said that...

Happy Festivus*, Wil.

*It's for the rest iv us.

Heya,

well, I hope you'll enjoy TTT, and with "you" I mea you, Wil, and every other person living in a civilized Country, and not in some damn 6th world Country like me, who'll have to wait till Jan, 16th to see TTT. Bwaaaaaahh :(

Ok, anyway, I reiterate, enjoy it, and if possible, watch it for me, too ;)

I, too, can't wait for Lord of the Rings. I esp. wanna see what they've cut out from the book. You know you're obsessed when you find flaws in people's articles about the movie! I haven't read that article yet but in a different one, I think, the reporter called the Uruk-hai, orcs. Oh well.
I like what you have under watch! *plug plug* Fantastic job in that by the way. two thumbs up.

love the blue hair

Blue hair lookin' good!

And I am also very excited about the fact that you *are* in the Star Trek movie. Now I HAVE to go see it! Whee!

Love the blue hair!
Love the screeen time in Nemesis!
Love the fact that your featured prominently on the ST website (link to Nemesis info).

49h 42 mins 20s till TTT... you're not the only one obsessed ;)

Some nice pics of your blue hair, your green lawn and your brown & black dog Ferris.

Have fun in the city by the Bay.

Ponders why Screen Savers doesn't have a studio audience? Or does it? Hrm...must snoop around more on the site.

I can't wait for the Two Towers to come out either! You aren't the only one that has been counting down the days. Did you see the interview with the cast of Lord of the Rings and Good Charlotte on MTV. That was really funny! Oh by the way, love the lawn, the dog, and especially the hair!

Hey Wil, the blue hair looks great!

Cool about the Screensavers bit. I'll be at my parents this coming week and they have digital cable, so I can even watch!

That blue color looks great! Blue is really one of the hardest hair colors to pull off and you do it admirably. :)

I'm looking forward to The Two Towers as well... already have tickets purchased for Wed. night.

Festivus--The holiday for the rest of us!

I'd like to wish everyone a Happy Agnostica. I don't like to leave anyone out you see. It means celebrate whatever, or not.

Hey, the blue hair looks great. And have fun at TTT. I've been counting down all year, but I won't have time to see it until after Christmas. How will I stand it? *wail*

Hey Wil....is that the 7PM episode of Screen Savers on Tuesday? I want to make sure I see it.

What up i gotta say i love reading your website daily dude, its frickin great. Maybe ill check out that comedy club sometime. Good luck with everything man.

later,
kevin

I have been counting down for two weeks.

Anticipation much?

The blue hair rocks and i have tried very hard not to copy it, but as my hair is blond i would probably look like some greasy mess....more so than usual that is.

Wil Has Nemesis screen time!!!

*dances on the ceiling*

To the Extra-reason-to-see-the-film mobile! Away!

I'd expected some hideous colour when I saw the "blue hair" comment. Not bad, actually. Ferris looks like trouble though, in a fun way, of course =)

Ferris is so cute, and oh yeah, you're OK too Wil!
BTW, when are we going to hear more details on your experience shooting Nemesis? I'm still psyched from seeing the movie, and it was really cool to see you at the "grown-ups" table at the wedding reception.

Love love LOVE the blue hair! I only wish mine looked so cool when I went blue. I kinda wound up with a manky-looking grey.

Further proof that Wil Wheaton is cooler than me.

http://www.startledfrog.com/beretwearingelitist/

well that certainly was BLUE! maybe that's what Ferris was cruxing his neck about?

Love the pics you posted. After reading your last entry I couldn't believe that you mentioned my professor I recently had at college. I had him during my senior year. I was required to ready Hyperspace for the class. He is an amazing professor. He knows how to make a class interesting.

Having recently found the site, and therefore recently reading the archives, I knew that Wil had screen time - I remember his conversation with Rick Facking Berman as being about cutting his lines but not his appearance.

Wow! Love tha pics.....Ferris is just the cutest.The blue hair though is kinda scary....The lawn is beautiful.

okay okay, stop it, havent laughed so hard as loking at them pics in a long time! WTF! A 30 year old with BLUE hair! Mind you i have had a few bottles of wine befire viewing them. Can still type straight too which is a wonder! Wil, in case you don't know, I'm gonna tell you:

1: Many of us come here EVERY DAY to see if you have posted.

2: Most of the girls who come here (maybe not the lesbians (but even some of those) would love to marry you because you take your wife for what and who she is and nothing else)

3: Are intelligent and think of more than cars and sex and sex again...

Blame the Asti Wil, blame the Asti...

That damn alcohol... Brings out the truth in all of us...

blue hair huh...the impression that i get from that picture is that DATA has yet another brother!

30 year old with blue hair..just proves the old addage "I may grow older, but I'll NEVER grow up!" :)
Nice shoes, there, WFW.

It sounds like there are a lot of people who would like to see Wesley on Star Trek again. Since we, the audience, ultimately pay the bills for Star Trek there is no reason why we shouldn't demand Wesley Crusher as a regular character in the next series (which is rumored to have some of TNG cast members). If you would like to add your support, follow these instructions:

Write a letter. Keep it short. State that you would like to see Wesley crushers as a regular character in the next Star Trek series. Give your favorite reason why you would want this (Keep it short). Above all, do not say anything negative -- you do not want to associate any bad feelings with this request. Mail the letter to:

Rick Berman, Producer
Paramount Pictures, Inc
5555 Melrose Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90038-3197

I've read that if your letter does not say Star Trek on the outside then it is more likely to be read. I don't know if this is true. I have also heard that handwritten letters tend to carry more impact than typed letters these days.

If someone wants to spearhead the effort and make a web page or something, please do so. I don't really have time to do any more than this post.

You ROCK.
The end.

You have one of the cutest dogs ever. EVER.

I *really* love the hair! I tried to go red last year, only I left the colour in too long and it turned out rather orange. Pumpkin head was the standard name for a while.
I just got back from Nemesis. I must say it exceeded my impressions. Of course, as a Crusher family fan, I was somewhat cynical after seeing how Gates was gypped on her parts, and then to hear you got cut... well... meh. But you look good! Better with the blue hair.
And very interesting article on Star Trek making money. Most of all, the sentence "Star Trek, it seems, will now hang its future on a reliable formula: explosions and breasts."
Unfortunately, I do not see a place for a cute yet self-proclaimed nerd on the show. But I'd love to write in if someone starts that campaign!

BTW: Does someone want to tell Berman that Enterprise is probably not successful because it's stupid?

Will there ever be a director daft enough to try and tackle the Silmarillion?

hey, i am really diggin' your blue hair dude!!! i love it! also, i think your lawn looks gorgeous, and heres to many a wonderful day/night playing on it!!! yey!
love rach

Okay - his blue hair reminded me of something. Since I can't post the picture here, go to this link and tell me if it reminds you of the same:
http://www.timwoolery.com/int_pics/deedle_poster.jpg

Meh...I try.

-t-

oh poo, forgot to say to everyone, Happy Christmas, or whatever it is you may or may not celebrate at this time of year!

love rach
xxx

I wish you would enjoy it? Haha. Crazy virus emailers should learn gooder engrish, eh? ;)

COOL BLUE HAIR :D

Have fun in SF! It's my home! Come see me! You should check out my play on Thursday!

Fred...no.

Went and stood in line at the theatre today and purchased 2 tickets to the afternoon showing of Nemisis, 2 tickets to WWE Armageddon, and 2 tickets to Thursday showing of Two Towers (I thought it opened on the weekend and promised to amuse my mother on Wednesday).

Anyway, Wil, I wore my posse shirt and gave an exciting yell when you popped up on the screen. My husband and I then waited around for the credits and clapped when we saw your name...
Hubby said it was nice to see that you beat out Majel for the computer voice...

I've been waiting for some sort of Star Trek review from ya, Wil -- any comments on the new movie?

I've been waiting for some sort of Star Trek review from ya, Wil -- any comments on the new movie?

I loved Nemesis. It was great to see you at the table w/ the big boys. The blue hair is very cool. The weather in SF sucks. It's really wet, windy, and down right nasty. Monday night is a great night for a tarot card reading ;)

Yeah, I took from what you'd said that you totally weren't in the movie at all, but then I saw it and there you were to the left. It was nice to see you back. I was pleasantly surprised. And yes, TTT will be very, very awesome. I cannot wait. I actually got a count down clock on my computer like 3 months ago... I got an early start. :)

Wil,

I think it's very cool to see you recommending Michio Kaku's "Hyperspace" as a book well worth reading. I finished reading that book not too long ago, and I agree. I'm now about halfway through "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene. If you haven't read this book yet, I'd suggest you might like to give it a look ... it's very much along the same lines as "Hyperspace", except that it concentrates more on the particulars and details of superstring theory. Anyway, I'm really enjoying it so far.

- David

P.S. - I'd have never believed it, but you appear to have somehow made blue hair workable. "Blue Crush", indeed. :)

Time magazine is such a knob-gobbling, toothless whore.

Nemesis, by all accounts, is a fucking train wreck. The reviews are blistering. Most calling it the worst Trek film ever (and THAT, my friends, is no small accomplishment). Yet Time talks it up like it's the best(!) talkie(!) ever(!).

And Enterprise?!

Jesus H. Christ.

It's like fucking DMV in space.

Fuck me.

The cast is terrible. Worst ever. The vulcan chick works her poker-faced monotone while Bakula diplomatically suggests "an alternate course of action" to his kindercrew at least EIGHT fucking times per episode.

DS9 was an abortion. Watching Voyager was like injecting ammonia and saline into your own scrotum.

Even Next Generation in its final season and on into the flicks (First Contact excepted) was a maudlin load of corn-studded ass-hash.

You know I love and respect you, TVsWW, but Berman did you a BIG fucking favor when he kicked your ass off his Hindenburg. Trek is an embarassment. It's trite. It's soulless.

My time is better spent eating paint chips off the floor of my local Home Depot. Fuck Trek. Finish your book. I want a copy like yesterday, bitch.

Hehehehehe... the blue hair looks really cool.

Waiting anxiously for Nemesis... hasn't come out here yet... hopefully will in a few weeks. Haven't been paying much attention to the date on the movie poster...

Wil,

cute pics,, love the blue hair and the dog
looking like he's never been fed...
the green green grass (you will be cutting
this spring)

I have seen NGSTN.. I thought it was just great!

and look forward to the DVD release with hopefully, any scenes that you were in, restored..

as for the sold out 8x10's...
I have this piture of a young Elvis...
that I swear, looks just like you in your younger
STNG days...

enjoy TT.. I'll have to wait until the crowds
settledown..

later....

SIGH #1...

LOTR:TTT doesn't come out until Dec. 26th here (Australia)

SIGH #2...

We don't get TechTV! Wah! Hopefully they'll post this on their site?

On an up note, love the hair! Very sessy!

That is some awesome looking lawn, dude! You really owe your friends big time!

Wil, your blue hair rocks :) And your lawn looks fabulous!

I've got one word to say about Nemesis: B4=Bata??? (from Data) No really, that part just sucked! And yes, Wil, you were kind of in the movie, but NO speaking part - that uber SUCKS! That just shows that people who control this franchise (and you know who I mean)have no CLUE what the F**K they're doing. Very sad. But I enjoyed seeing the ST:TNG gang together.

Ahhh... Like Wil and so many others I can't wait to see TT - we got into the whole spirit of merchandising and my hubby got me the TT calendar for next year :) Now all we need to do is watch the Fellowship, AGAIN, and and finish listening to the BBC recording of LotR (with "Bilbo" as "Frodo" ;) (a little riddle for you guys - think casting...)

Hey, just an unrelated comment:
I saw Nemesis on the weekend and in the 2nd scene (reception) Wil can be seen a half dozen times laughing and whatnot. When I saw this I almost stood up and cheered for you....but I didn't want people to think I was looney, so I stayed in my chair and silently gave a little cheer to Wil and thanks to all the monkeys who bombarded Rick Berman with "Put Wil in the movie" emails/letters/calls. It wasn't much, but it was good to see everyone from TNG together in the movie :)

I found a link to this article at Fark

http://www.thedailybull.ca/article.php?id=139

Notice the last few line -

"A group of several fans, desperate to achieve a more full account of Wheaton's appearance than any deleted scene can give, is even organizing a petition to Paramount to create a new Star Trek series based on the travels of Wesley Crusher."

Interesting ?

am much digging the blue hair! I remember when my hair was blue...decided to bleach it four times before I made it to the blue, so I got to enjoy a nice head of white at the tender age of 21. :) Two towers...uuumm...nice....looking forward to Viggo's preformance since his wonderful delivery of These are my people and I will die as one of them! or something, barely caught it in a tv spot hence the lacking of " " and your lawn is looking good...yeah I'm just rambling on *gonna shut up now*

Blue hairs, green grasses, red chucks. Nice color.

Ok, so I'm worried now after reading that article in the Chicago Sun Times. Someone has misinterpretted Faramir - is it the reviewer or the screenwriters? I'm just hoping he threw it in there as a tease, because Faramir is not the power and control driven type. He's got his head in the clouds. His father complains that he's always been enchanted by Mithrandir.
Okay, Faramir was always one of my favorite characters. I hope they didn't mess him up.

I just wanted to add something – why did so many people make a comment about a “30-year old with blue hair”, like it’s such a big anomaly. So turning 30 means you have to start behaving like a "rational adult", who would NEVER even dare to think of coloring his hair, uh, blue? Yikes, are some of the monkeys here THAT conservative? How about all these poor misguided 30-year-old “suits”? I see Wil’s blue hair as an expression of his free alternative spirit. I would love to have the balls to pull a stunt like that in my conservative workplace. Three cheers for you, Wil. And man, I can't wait for your book.

Oh, and in my circle of friends TT is known as "THE movie" ;)

went to see Nemesis on Fri nite (well, 12:30a Sat). Honestly, I liked it. It DEFINITELY was no Khan... but I liked it. And it was nice to be able to see you in a few shots (i knew to look for it from previous comments). I was slightly confused at Wesley being in Uniform... I know I'm rusty on TNG history but I thought Wesley had left Starfleet to go Traveling? *shrug* time-travel leaves a LOT of room for plot twists, so I'll leave it alone.
Most excellent hue of blue, I dig that. And the dog? One word... ADORABLE!!!
God(s & Goddesses, etc) bless cinemark.com. Tickets are bought n paid for, counting down to Wednesday 9:35 EST. 1 minute shy of 3 hours of Tolkien goodness... Happy Yule to us all :)

-'naia

Nice hair and cute cute doggie!!

Wil,
You look good with blue hair! Good job on the lawn. I helped my "adopted" family lay down sod this fall and it was a PAIN. It looked really good, so it was worth the effort. You ought to take some of that yellow caution tape and see what fun pictures you can take with it. I once sealed up a friend's door with Crime Scene tape. He thought someone was murdered in his apartment. Ahhh, good times...

Love the blue hair-cute dog too! Also, I checked out the "Demotivators" from the link you spoke about. I too laughed pretty hard at this one, and then checked out a few of the rest. The ironic thing is that I have one of those "Motivational" posters hanging in my office right now, staring down at me even as I type. I wonder if they'd mind if I replaced it with "Indifference" or "Flattery" from the "Demotivators" collection... :)

Anyhow, Wil, Love the site, you're awesome, and mucho mojo sent from Michigan to California just for our good ol' uncle willie!!

Christmas will come early for many of us on Tuesday on Tech!

Holy. Farking. Shit. Wil. AND Michio Kaku. On The Screen Savers. On. My. Birthday.

See? I don't ask for much.

I can't remember the last time something caused me to be giddy - seeing Wil in ST: Nemesis, even if it was just for a moment, was like a birthday or something; good stuff indeed!

On a more militant note, I'm gonna flex my creative skills and put up a page that'll support the idea of integrating Wil with Star Trek again - any pics, ideas, help, etc can be directed to me via email.

You'll see, Wil! We'll shove Berman right off his high horse!

-=Jer

I too saw Star Trek on Friday Night. I had placed a bet with a friend that there would be people dressed up in Star Trek uniforms. And they were there. They had a table set up, and were trying to get people to join their Trek club. When we walked over to talk to them, I asked if any of them were Wil Wheaton Fans. This one chick said to me, "Shut Up Wesley!", but later they all quietly told me that they read this site. They did give me a copy of the Movie Poster of Nemesis, so that was worth it. It was cool seeing Wil in the movie, if only for one scene. Can't wait for the DVD -IF- it has his cut scenes.

Hmm. So I'm in Barnes & Noble on Saturday PM and I'm in the magazine section trying to pretend that I'm not looking at _Star Trek Communicator_ beacuse the wife will think I'm even loonier and there's a wedding picture foldout that I think I saw before maybe on this site or linked from it except Wil isn't in it.

He should have been to the left of Worf or something, right?

:: mad ::

Hey Wil, thanks for the ref to Kaku, I must check out the books.

hey, nice shoes! i have a pair like that! are yours hi-or low-top? great hair, too. manic panic color, i assume? i'm sure it looks smashing with the shoes.

sorry about the whole nemesis thing, too. completely shitty on berman's part. he'll get his, you'll see.

love your site, still lurking, still reading...

namaste...

Wil Wheaton with blue hair and now he looks all anime!! Now all he needs is a black leather trenchcoat to wear and an tentacle rape-demon to shoot his .357 at.

Hmm.. So it's on at 6pm central? I'll have to try to watch that when Profiler is over. Unless I'm like having to rake the yard some more.. Maintaining 32acres is a bitch.

Wil,

Love the blue hair!

Also can't wait for LOTR 2 Towers. It will be incredible, I'm sure.

Also looking forward to catching Nemesis, although we'll miss seeing you in it!

Encouraging everyone to visit www.democracynow.org. Ani DeFranco was incredible on Friday the 13th show.

Peace

Odd. No mention of Nemisis yet, other than the link ?

Hey,

I saw Nemesis and there you were, which raises some serious questions. My wife (who does not read Blogs) saw you and wondered what happened, how Wes got there, where he has been, what he has done so on. It seemed odd that he was at the Main table, yet said nothing. Struck her (and me) as weird, especially given the curious nature of his departure. It was especially weird given that They had time for Guinan's comment about the number of marrages she has had.

Any chance you could let us in on what the lines were that were cut?

I can't decide whether I like the lawn or the blue hair best.

I went to the TTT premiere in NY a couple of weeks ago. IT RAWKS!!! I'll defintely see it again and again and again...

ferris is such a beautiful puppy!

thanks for sharing the pictures.

Does that mean you will get some of the royalties? *re-thinks purchasing more than one copy of the movie when it comes out* :p

also, here's a funny i got this morning, it made me laugh so hard i just had to share: http://www.yourbigfun.com/giggles/view.cfm?page_id=81

wnnsnb!(be well!)

you know, I was disappointed that Lord of the Rings fans don't seem to rate anywhere at all in this geek hierarchy (http://www.brunching.com/geekhierarchy.html)
- I think we should be right near the top myself... (I found the link to the geek hierarchy on NTK.net)

ugh, got to laugh everytime i read the, "U R my friend." oh, it's wonderful.
one can't help but look for updates at wwdn pretty much everyday. at least, i can't help it. and quite obviously, everyone else who's written above me can't. unkie willie is quite the popular guy. congrats, wil. you're not as geeky as you thought. no one can be this popular and that geeky.
curse those who live on the east coast for being able to see lotr earlier than i. but that's okay. they shall have theirs in time as well...
everyone have a lovely day!

Wil,

The hair looks great! Nice job on getting the blue to work correctly for you. I tried that once myself. Let's just say that it didn't work as well for me =/

I'm watching the TNG episode "Remember Me" right now, the one where Beverly gets trapped in a warp bubble, and everyone starts disappearing on her...Anyway, I'm glad to see that you don't sport that Wesley Crusher hiarstyle in real life! I dunno, it just...doesn't fit your personality =)

WebNuT!

Hay all,

Want to see Wil LIVE CALL TECH TV and see if you can get on the list like i just did... 415.437.5800.

Hope to see you at the show...

Ah, time for the feats of strength, as we cavort around the Festivus Pole!

Screen Savers! Woo Hoo!

At least when you go to them, Marty can't turn your house into a den of sin!

I love the blue hair. I bet the kids get a kick out of that. I would if my dad ever made his hair blue. HA! What little of it is left anyway.

Wil,
Those were great linksss. Funny. I guess I'm going to balance the laughs by going to see the new Rings movie soon. You have become a walking christmas light. The hair glows.

FG

Aww! I like your new hair color! ^_^ Verry nice! And your dog is totally adorable! Mine used to look so cute, like yours.. But then he became dumb and ugly.. he's not a cute puppy anymore, but I alone still love him!

You know Wil, (since I like all your other "fans" have deluded myself into the idea that you would actually bother reading these comments) anyway, Wil I'm curious what kind of pathetic subcreature would actually waste their hard-earned (through persistant whining to parental units) money on an autographed picture of a moderately famous person such as yourself? Not to detract from your obvious talents as a..... well what do you actually do? I gathered from a brief look around the site that you were in some movie in like 1986, and did Star Trek or something, but since you're no longer participating in that fine dramatic tradition why would someone be interested in paying $30 (being that I'm Australian that's closer to $60AUS) on a photo of you? I'm seriously curious, 'coz I'm thinking of photocopying my butt and auctioning it on ebay. I figure if a relative unknown like you can get $30US, then a complete unknown like me should be able to pull in about $5 a pop, whatcha reckon?

Good Article from TIME about Star Trek even though TIME MAGAZINE is a haven for wacko left-wing readers and righters. Anyone who thinks that BONO can save the world should be shot.

Here's another link for y'all: http://www.dubyadubyadubya.com/ . It would be a lot funnier if it wasn't so true...

Aw Man! Love the blue hair! Trying to convince the Spousal Unit to help me dye mine green- he isn't going for it. Grass looks great! All I can grow is moss & weeds! Great looking doggie! Saw Nemesis last weekend and tho't it was great, but wanted to hear about you & The Traveler! WTF? They could've gone over 2 hrs!

Merry Christams dude!

Hah, I saw The Two Towers last night! It was really really good, the battle scenes against Rohan were really amazing, but of course storywise, the Two Towers is really just setting up everything that will happen in The Return of the King. But still really really good!

Wil! You look so cute with blue hair! Much better than those elderly ladies in the grocery!

Seriously envying you guys visiting San Fran. It's one of the most romantic cities and is on my husband and mine to do list. Enjoy!

Hi, Wil
this is my first time to your site. just finished watching your techtv debut, nice, you should hit them up for a job as the linux correspondent. being this is my first time here , and reading your disclaimer, thought you should know, government is spelled wrong. that url link I posted is a web site, some friends of mine in a yahoo chat room, came up with to attempt to help some computer users. well, not to overdo it, g2g and catch the matinee, I wil be back

Those are better pictures than that one on your main page. :)

Wow jude. you're a real asshole.

Thanks for stopping by, jackass. Go fix your broken links you idiot.

Oh, and fuck you.

Hey Wil, one thing i would like to know is how did Wesley Crusher know about the wedding, thought he was with the Travler? Guess it doesn't have to make since since you didn't get much screen time. Next movie they should bring you back and have you save the Enterprise! :) ROCK ON!
