Ricardo Montablan has died.

Re: Ricardo Montalban has passed on.

Of course, in The Chicago Tribune story, there's no mention of his Star Trek work. What a, uh, surprise! -- RR

That's funny, I saw it mentioned. :confused:

Just reread the story. It's been updated, it's longer and now mentions his villainous turns in ST, TWOK, and in one of the Naked Gun flicks. I jumped the gun a bit! In his honor, I changed my avatar to Montalban as Khan in TWOK. -- RR


Aw, I almost forgot about The Naked Gun!

At least he lived a long, full life. He will be remembered with honor.
 
Re: Ricardo Montalban has passed on.

The great beauty of their craft is that it will forever be there for our viewing pleasure. Condolences to all his friends and family.
 
Re: Ricardo Montalban has passed on.

Star Trek greatest villian ever. Very sad news. :(
 
Re: Ricardo Montalban has passed on.

I'm going to go ahead and say that my Avatar now applies to this as well. Since I'm not sure what to put as the caption... except maybe KAAAAHHHHHNNNNNN!!!!
 
Re: Ricardo Montalban has passed on.

This sucks. Two greats on the same day. :(

RIP Montalban and McGoohan. Your class acts will be missed.
 
Whoa! This has truly been a sad time for Star Trek fans. First Majel Barrett passes away, and now this! :(

I was thinking the exact same thing when my friend told me about his passing...I thought he was in okay health, he did some voice work on a Family Guy episode pretty recently.

RIP and thanks for being one of the most iconic villains in Trek history.

:(
 
I'm saddened to hear this news. I saw a program last night about the history of MGM, and he was featured in one of the segments. :(

Sadly, I think that the next few years will be very sad for Trek. Most of it's best veteran actors are up there in age.
