What about Scotty and Uhura? Is it over between them?
« on: February 17, 2007, 07:07:48 AM »
I guess they (smartly) decided to drop the whole creepy romance between Uhura and Scotty from Star Trek V. I was hoping that they'd at least have some knowing glances or something, but they just seemed to igore each other completely in this movie.

Damn you! Try to be more careful from now on. If I had been drinking milk when I read that, I would be DEAD now, and it would have been entirely YOUR FAULT.  :)

You know, Scotty taught Uhura that fan dance.

SERIOUSLY, did we have to go back to the geriatric seduction sequence?

I don't know WHO that whole thing was aimed at...

perhaps one of the resident trekkies on the board can explain how the whole thing is not disturbing/vomit inducing?

I'm by no means a trekkie, but I think it's fairly well-known that there was no love lost between Doohan and Shatner. If I had to guess, Shatner purposely threw Scotty into an embarassing sub-plot just to be a prick.

I know when I saw their "moment" in STV, we all looked at each other and went HUH??!?!   I mean, sure, they have been on the same ship(s) with each other for 30 years or so, so a romance makes sense (they are both single and all), but to have a romance pop up, then do nothing with it in the very next film is pretty sloppy film making.

Do you think mid-coitous Scotty ever screamed out:
I'm givin her all she's got Uhura, if I push it any harder, the whole thing'll blow!!!!

Just wondering. Now I'm going to go bleach my brain.
