GhostShadow Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 if you have VLC you can take a snapshot of it during the eps. If you dont have VLC i suggest getting it, one of the best media players in my opinion. go to google and get it if ya want. But i havent seen it, kinda sounds intresting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arktis Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Lucky for us, memory alpha has the right half of the photo in question. And of course, they also have a photo of Robert Duncan McNeill (Tom Paris).

GhostShadow Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 its wishful thinking, lol. I dont think they look alike, sorry. haha one is really skinny and the other... well is nothing like the other. i guess they do look a littel alike if your blind in one eye and have a milky film over the other, lol j/k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmdsouth Posted January 4, 2006 Author Share Posted January 4, 2006 im only on about the face btw the eyes, nose, and lips not the hairline, beard, body etc just like the left with Quinn's face superimposed on the picture it obviously not the body of the actor who plays quinn.

Arktis Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 what is your opinion Chief Arktis? it does look like him loads same eyes and nose etc just ignore the hair and beard! perhaps it is just me i dunno shame knobody official can't tell us! Okay, if you want my opinion: I think it could be him. In fact I'm convinced that it is. As you said, same eyes, same nose. Same ears too, same everything except for the beard. The beard by the way, creates a kind of optical illusion making it appear as though his jaw is narrower than it actually is, causing him to look skinnier. Check it out. But, why go through the trouble? I think that's a good question to ask. Any bum off the street would have done, no? However, the people who put together star trek do have a love for putting in funny things such as this. Take the number 47 for example (Reference at memory alpha. Also look at the more detailed wikipedia entry on this which is linked to at the bottom of memory alpha's entry.). It appears a lot. This among numerous other similar kinds of subtle easter egg like elements could lend credence to the supposition that this is an altered photo of the actor who plays Tom Paris. My eyes certainly tell me that it is him. Interpretation of sensory data can be incorrect of course, so there is some doubt in my mind, but not much. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostShadow Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 uhmm... no they still look totaly diffrent. Even if you take off the beard they are two diffrent ppl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arktis Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Yeah you caught me. I was trying to weave another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mateya Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 there maybe some general similarity there but the chin is totally different. and dont get me started on the ears - the rikers ancestor has "the dumbo" ones :) edit: if I look closer I see the great similarity in the eye retina tho ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmdsouth Posted January 4, 2006 Author Share Posted January 4, 2006 check out my pic enough already with the chin! im not on about the body or even the shape of the head it just his eyes, nose, and mouth! look at quinns features stuck on the face they dont belong on the head at all just like its tom paris features stuck on also.

TFMF Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Yeah i see what you mean - it does look a bit like him but i don't think it is acually Paris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostShadow Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 The eyes look a littel alike, but they are not the same ppl from the looks of it to me. the facil details are to diffrent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naikou Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 well, my two cents on the matter is about time, that is a picture done in a VERY old style(or quite nicely photoshopped to look like it, or maybe even a recreation of that old technique), either way, if it is 'authentic' as in taken approx. around 1850 or so...well, the odds of tom paris being alive then points to highlander having some truth to it....but if it's a recreation, i find it likely it would be tom paris posing, as they look alike, but the picture quality just makes a positive identification impossible.

TFMF Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 The producers might have thought the same thing - seeing a sort of look-a-like to Paris and thought - heh - lets use that photo then and confuse people... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
