  Wonderful actor, he will be missed. I saw an interesting article about him. In one part of it it speaks to how Star Trek VI was not the first time Christopher Plummer and William Shatner worked together.
  

  Fellow Canadians Shatner and Plummer had known each other for years prior to working together on Star Trek VI, with both men having starred in productions at the Montréal Repertory Theatre.
  
  Shatner was Plummer's understudy in a 1956 production of Henry V at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival. Plummer could not go on one evening due to illness, which led to Shatner's big break. "He didn't do what I did at all," Plummer recalled in a separate interview. "Where I stood up to make a speech, he sat down. He did the opposite of everything I did. And I knew that son of a b**** was going to be a star."

  I don’t know about anyone else, but I plan to watch The Undiscovered Country tonight in his honor.

  It would be a very classy move to honor him by giving a copy of his card to players in the time portal.

  That would be a nice gesture. We lost him, so we all get him.

  I am glad I saw him in Spamalot. My brother made him laugh from the audience at the end of the play, by covering his eyes with the quarter size things that were dropped at the end of the play. Was a fun experience.

  The icon for "Villain" in crew retrieval has a very recognisable eye patch. I've got to assume it's a coincidence and the art was settled a long time ago, but it seems incredibly appropriate.

  Well, it would be between an eyepatch, a twirlable mustache, or an apple
