Well.

That sounds depressing as hell, suspended Crocodylidae notwithstanding.

I love that cover! Never seen that one before.

I have such hatred for this book because we had to read it in school but really, I think a good film adaptation would help people like me who hated it lol.

I found my first gray hair at 15. Moar gray hair in media!

[(Anonymous)]

There are a good number of male actors with grey hair. Less than the average population, but men with grey hair can still get decent roles. Women have it much worse.

I don't know, I have seen some awful wigs and horribly unflattering hairstyles (that don't seem meant to be unflattering) in shows and movies. And, to be honest, there have been some really terrible general hair trends. Maybe we're just really bad at figuring out hair.

[(Anonymous)]

Once again, this secret hits different given Tom Scott just went on sabbatical.

[(Anonymous)]

And actors who go full grey often look fantastic! Andie Macdowall in particular.

(That said, I can see why people in a youth-obsessed industry don't do it.)

I've had a streak of grey in my hair since I was a teen, and the Monstrous Bebe has grey, too.

I hate how they have people go off on a grey hair like it's a death sentence (see: that ridiculous story arc in 'Sex & the City' where Samantha found a grey pubic hair).

I wonder how much of this is affected by the use of extensions and/or wigs. Speaking entirely of women, extensions are added to basically everyone because the camera takes off a lot of volume. Or sometimes an actress will have very vigorous hair that is impossible to maintain continuity with (I've got very thick slightly curly hair - I'm Jewish - and have been told I would never be allowed to wear my own hair on camera because it's so hard to keep in one shape). While the wigs could definitely have some age-appropriate graying, I'll bet it's hard to find extensions that match a particular graying pattern.

[(Anonymous)]

Given how many people dye their hair IRL, it doesn't bug me unless it's a historical/fantasy setting where hair dye doesn't exist.

That said, I would like to see more gray hair on characters who are middle-aged or younger.

It bugs me that reading glasses are the acceptable symbol of aging, but they will be put on characters who are still really too young to need them (except that one time with Captain Kirk).

My fave does this thing...he's been going grey for about 10 years. He'll do a project, dye his hair, grow it out to what used to be a salt and pepper look - he crossed over to silver fox territory by his 45th - then he'll get booked for another gig and he'll dyed it again. It's fine when it's his natural chestnut colour, but when he goes pitch black...not my thing

[(Anonymous)]

I wonder if it's because their hair will be fucked with a million times over in active filming and they figure it's not worth getting a proper job done when it'll be wrecked on day one of an actual project.

Or just really not feeling like dealing with having their hair done outside of work- like you spend enough time in the chair you really don't want to do it when you're not getting paid for it.

I had a secret earlier about how Star Trek shouldn’t have gore, and I recently got linked to a comic about how Star Trek shouldn’t have swearing:https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2017/11/01/star-trek-fng I guess we’re all pining for old Star Trek.

That's...really odd. Bookbinding is a major skill, and costs quite a bit (unless you're binding in recycled cardboard from behind the Mini-Mart). I can't imagine why anyone would *demand* that the bookbinders not be compensated for their time and abilities.

He, uh. He died. There's like a scene in the sequel with his skull.
