[Macho MAGA Man]

She was beautiful and great in the film. I wished she would have starred in the sequel, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I wonder why she didn't? I didn't like her replacement in the film. She was wooden if there ever was.

I wonder what she would have thought of President Desantis.

“When negotiating Kirstie Alley’s contract for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), Paramount Studios did not offer or include any options or clauses regarding any possible sequels. According to director Leonard Nimoy, this left Alley open to negotiate a new contract for this film, resulting in Alley’s excessive salary demands, which led to her being dropped and replaced by Robin Curtis.”

As I recall, she was getting underpaid in comparison to the rest of the cast. The usual. Although I like the original series, the actors acted like spoiled children when making the films with their constant demands for more money and more “character development”.

[Telepathic Intruder]

I wasn’t referring to Kirstie, by the way. It’s just that the original series actors demanded so much that there wasn’t enough left in the budget to give her a decent cut.

Okay, thanks for posting. I had not seen that film. I used to wonder why some men were all gaga over her when she was on Cheers. She seemed kinda big-boned and beefy to me. Now I see it wasn’t her — it was those ridiculous 1980s shoulder pads! (I always cut them out of my clothes as soon I bought them, as I had no desire to look like a football player.)

Star Trek II was the best Star Trek movie of all IMHO.
