No, supply and demand dictates the price, nothing else, read a book, preferably economics 101.
Who do you think controls the supply, DeBeers for example? What dictates the price of Diamonds? Surely the cost of mining determines the rock bottom price regardless of its supply. You should move past Econ 101, maybe start with Dr. Seuss
Who controls the price of Bitcoin? Bitmain, Tether(Bitfinex, willyBot 2.0), and soon Intelbitcoin no doesn't work like that.
I don't mind Star Trek Generations but they were utter fools to kill Kirk off it has to be said. Could have still been part of the adventures for some years after that I reckon.
Star Trek went completely off the rails since First Contact. Such a shame.
Then again maybe they saved Shatner quite a bit from NOT being part of the awful Star Trek things we have had to endure since the 90s I guess.
I'm sure they could have found a way to bring him back if it was on the cards. He probably had other things to be doing.
I think he wanted to still be part of it for some time after. He wrote some books. I remember reading one that had him/Kirk fighting the Borg alongside Picard I'm sure. Like you said he found a way to bring his character back. Can't remember the story that well but I think it was a trilogy of books after Kirk died.
Then went onto Tekwar books, there was a terrible PC game based on that I played and then other stuff.
Yeah.. it could be that Shatner did want to continue with Kirk, even though it appears that currently, his networth is north of $100 million, so he does not seem to be doing too badly for himself.. at least financially..
and even living into his 90s must have been a plus - including that he does not appear to be in bad health, either... especially for 91 years of age.

Gotta agree with uie-pooie on that everpresent goal of getting to tomorrowland, xhomerx10
Caused me to refresh my memory with the below little snip-it of a gem:

<quote from Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking Glass">
Gotta love "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass". Classic awesome stuff.
I think I 1st read them when I was around age ten. Albeit, at that age I obviously I didn't understand the true meaning behind them.
I just thought they were super cool fairy tales. And I wasn't even doing drugs.....
I remember reciting
"The Walrus and the Carpenter" poem in my 8th grade poetry English class for my recital assignment.
One of my all time favorite poems. (and I still wasn't doing drugs)
GO BITCOIN
I agree that some pieces of literature and/or art might be appreciated more when we get older - but still that walrus and carpenter story seems a wee bit too abstract for yours truly to appreciate.. to the extent that I even understand what it means... .or if an 8th grade recital might have done it for me?
I am not sure.. I doubt that you would have memorized the whole thing (or did you?), even if you might have had to practice reading through it several times in order to get comfortable reading the whole thing, no?
Sometimes, I am reminded of some projects from my youth, and surely some of them do not even have much conscious meaning for me - even though it could be that I have been influenced in various subconscious ways without realizing some of those foundational/underlying ways of thinking about the world.
