I didn't see that here. But it's definitely true of Ep 14, S 1, "Balance of Terror."

I guess that's how powerful his role really is, that you remember him as such a big part of the movie!

And THANK GOSH the photon torpedo suffered exactly zero damage going through the atmosphere and landed perfectly intact...

At the end of my first screening of this movie, I got up out of my seat and said "Spock lives!" and then went into my reasoning why The Genesis Planet would bring Spock back to life to those around me...

I love this letter from Ricardo Montalbán to a reviewer of the film.
You can feel why this movie mattered to him so much. #StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan #TCMParty

They absolutely got every penny out of the much-lower budget for this second film.

"Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" is a submarine warfare movie in space.

Call back to Spock quoting #ATaleOfTwoCitites as he gave Kirk his birthday present

You mean, "KAAAAAAARRRRRKKKK!"

I still pronounce "Kirk" that way when I ever seen someone is named Kirk.

This movie had much less of Ricardo Montalban than I remember.

The shot of sunrise over the Genesis Planet set to "Amazing Grace" feels like a scene out of a John Ford film

The New Yorker on Ricardo Montalbán, June 1982:
" #StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan is the only validation he has ever had of his power to command the big screen.
Montalban is unquestionably a star in The Wrath of Khan (and his grand manner seems to send a little electric charge through Shatner)." #TCMParty

As a seven-year-old who grew up watching the original #StarTrek in syndication, I was crying my eyes out for the last five minutes of #StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan

I cannot believe they turned this scene into A CHRISTMAS TREE ORNAMENT

In St. Louis, the first was at The Shady Oak, which showed more artistic films about half the time, the second was at The Chesterfield Mall Cinema and the third at The Village Square, which had the largest screen and Dolby Stereo.

Opening Day of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," I saw the film three times. The first at the first show around noon in one theater. The second at the "Rush Hour Show" around 5 p.m. in a second theater, the third at the late show in another theater.
