I do go to the movies. I’m just not good with celebrities since they’re not people I care about.
Generally I don't either, but Princess Bride is a classic and he was great in it. BTW, if you say you don't know who William Shatner or Patrick Stewart are I am going to have your geek card revoked permanently! ;)

As others have mentioned, the real reason to care about his trip is that he is moderately well known (present company excepted), presumably an EV neophyte, and probably has enough followers that issues on his trip will likely be picked up by someone and make the anti-EV rounds. If all goes well it will be a non-story.

Let me guess: instead of going to the movies you watch the fordpass app on your phone, waiting for the frunk button to light up ?
TBH that would be more entertaining than most of the new movies out today ?

I’m pretty sure Bill Shatner rose to fame as a result of his amazing performance as TJ Hooker and his subsequent musical career (family guy did a great takeoff on his rendition of Rocket Man).
I believe Patrick Stewart reached the pinnacle of his cinematic career as Bosley in Charlie’s Angels, then went on to a successful voice-over career in such underrated TV shows as Family Guy

William Shatner did something besides see gremlins on airplane wings in The Twilight Zone? ;)

In case anyone is interested in dog hammocks. We used one traveling with our 85 lb. labradoodle. It provided a full backseat area and we filled the floor area level with the seats for a bit more room. Put in his bed. He is a mellow dog. Just laid quiet and slept. The hammock does not secure the dog, just helps the dog lay across the seats.

Mandy also acted in Alien Nation with James Caan and Terence Stamp. Great movie!

Mandy Patinkin (The Princess Bride, Homeland, Criminal Minds) just posted a TikTok showing his departure for a long road trip with his dog in his Mach-E. Hopefully, he’ll share his experiences with us along the way.

Getting back to the start, has he posted any updates?

He hasn’t posted any updates on TikTok. I just added a comment to his original video saying the Mach-E Forum wants to know how his trip is going, along with a link to this discussion thread. Maybe he’ll see it and, hopefully, respond. But he has over 7700 comments already, so he probably doesn’t read every one.

I saw him respond to one about things to do in Hollywood Florida. He seems retired, he would be great to have on this forum!

Yes, it would be nice to know. :)

? John Lithgow and William Shatner are the same person? Whoa! ;)
No, but Lithgow played in a scene in the movie that was based off of the Shatner episode, 20 or so years later. ??

One of the best inside jokes of that entire series!
