Acting in makeup does not seem as easy as one’s ability to act without makeup. There have been stories of people on Star Trek for example, whom had terrible experiences. Some wanted to quit, others had bad skin reactions.
I did not know who we were talking about until he said mystique
Okay so the blonde actress is Jennifer Lawrence that’s cool I like her role in the movies for the X-men at least other movies I’m sure too I’m sure acting with Professor x and magneto has taught her a lot
Ok I was wondering why she looked different in the movie where she got shot with the dart in the back of the truck to save magneto, she became a naked human and magneto abandoned her lol
Every few years I watch all the X-men movies in order…
I’m not the best with actors’ names though, I do know Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan though because they are such good actors. well okay and I love Star Trek lol
I do the same thing, rewatch xmen, I have heaps of serious etc I do that with, I have two teenagers, currently and I’ve been saving the next xmen rewatch to all do together, but I can’t convince them to watch it yet. But I’m patient. I can wait till they’re vibing it.
I have been absolutely loving snw. I’ve watched them all, and all the recently related series, too. The thing I love the most about snw is it brings back the old formula of star trek, it has a random cycle of some weird but fun comedy episode, a serious deep episode, etc (I forget the whole list, off the top of my head) but it just felt like being back home, somehow, back to its core. I love the characters, they’re amazing actors, all deep and stoic and against all odds, but somehow still optimistic against all odds. I can’t decide who I love more, although it’s probably La’An, I feel like I can relate to her the most. And on top of all that, it’s beautiful, beautiful scenery, beautiful story telling, engaging. I love it.
It really goes to show the talent that Jim Carrey has as an actor. I’m sure that Grinch costume was extremely restrictive, but his Grinch is almost more expressive than the animated ones. Contrast that with Mike Myers’ Cat in the Hat, where The Cat emotes like he has daily botox injections, and you really start to get a picture of how much Carrey put into his performance.
To be fair, in the near 40 years between the beginning of TNG and Picard S3, makeup tech has improved vastly.
In the 80s we were talking about heavy, hot prosthetics under very bright, hot lights.
Today, those prosthetics are slim, silicone moulded to the person’s face, with skin-friendlier glues, much less makeup required to hide it, and better CGI that helps eliminate makeup mistakes.

It takes hours and hours to put it on, and take it off. And then theres 10 hours of acting in between.
I would have panic attacks too
As an aside. The guy who played Pinhead was in so many things as Pinhead he learned how to do the makeup himself.
That’s pretty neat
Freak!
Jennifer Lawrence gets a lot of shit for not being blue much after the first movie she was in but she also had a really bad reaction to the makeup
That’s why they killed off Z’an on Farscape, the blue makeup was apparently harming Virginia Hey’s kidneys so she had to quit the role.
Why would she be blue?
Da ba dee da ba di
What about her house and car?
It was all yellow
Ooooooooh Yeahhhhhhhhh
Oh oh oh oh
She played mystique in several X-Men movies. mystique is blue in her natural form
Oh neat. I never knew. Not super into superhero movies.
Just average into average hero movies then?
Honestly yeah. Like SkyHigh, ClockStoppers, Futureman
ClockStoppers
Goddamn…
I got to explain the Nextel phone walkie talkie system to a Gen A today, too!
Honestly probably my favorite TV show ever
Ah, so you only like movies and shows with penis fight scenes

Rebecca Romijn played mystique first, before the role she currently has, of Una, in star trek strange new worlds. She did it best.

Weird they couldn’t do this in post production.
There’s makeup, and then there’s having carpet laid on your face.
Oh kinky

Michael Dorn said “nope, no way, not doing that again, wait, how much?” (Wrt DS9)

Neat
Dorn had been begging for his own show for decades
Like the Sulu series, that ship has unfortunately sailed.
So many good ideas left behind because of the cheap bastards controlling the brand.
Not only will this now accelerate, any fresh IP will get the dreaded production interference with MAGA themes
The name “Enterprise” was from the start a right wing capitulation to avoid a moral panic over space communism and a diverse crew.
Yeah, Dorn never had a problem with the makeup, he had a problem with Worf getting bodied and overruled every episode.
And they still end up looking like stiff puppets
