Red hair and a wonderful lingerie wardrobe. Oy, the panties...

Yep, we men are easily stereotyped.

"Watch it jiggle; see it wiggle.
Make some Jell-O brand gelatin,
and have some fun."

Now, why did this topic make me sing that song.
Because no one (not even a genetically superior man) can resist the most terrifying and destructive force in the Universe--big boobs...
Khan thought he was the one in control, but Marla so pwned him...
Especially his own!
Why not? Nurse Chapel had lots of 'em!

As Tony Randall taught us in regards to tea, so too is true of teats: tinier is tastier. A flat chested lass with plump nipples is as desirable as any Chesty McMamamries in my book.

To each his own, of course, but the devastating power of the Boob Force can not be denied. And many a man has succumbed to it...
Yeah, I know. I like big boobs, too, I won't deny. I just like tiny ones as well--both (and most boobs in between) have the power to derange my circuits.
Dudes, give it a break! You're embarassing me, and I'm the one who brought up Marla's mammies.
Beautiful ladies come in a wonderful variety of shapes of sizes. Need I remind all of you that Sherry Jackson as Andrea was every bit as mammorable as the late Madlyn Rhue as Marla.

I disagree. I think he was more of a loose cannon with her dead.
You guys are overlooking another possibility:
What if Marla was injured and dying during the story? That could've made Khan even more furious. That actually would've allowed Khan's drive for vengeance to make sense.
I loved that movie when it first came out, but over time it has soured on me. The story wasn't that good, and I didn't buy Kirk's "on golden galaxy" mid-life crisis. That was horribly out-of-character. And leaving Khan an opening to fire on the Enterprise during the first confrontation of the movie didn't make sense, either. After having survived (barely) so many other situations in deep space ("Balance of Terror", "The Omega Glory", "The Tholian Web", to name a few) I cannot buy Kirk "getting caught with my breeches down". Also, the notion of the super-powerful refit Starship Enterprise being so easily disabled leaves a bad taste in my mouth to this day. The ship can survive a direct attack by V'Ger and still save the world, but along comes a looney terrorist and we're helpless. Given the situation, Kirk should have been arrested upon return to Spacedock and court-martialed for negligence at the very least.
Yes, it is too bad they didn't bring back Madlyn Rhue as Marla McGivers. It would've made Khan a little less of a cardboard character. As it stands, Khan in the movie bares little resemblance to the charismatic totalitarian superman in "Space Seed", and the absence of Marla McGivers leaves a major hole in the story. "She's dead, Jim"; that's all we're left with. Her absence from TWOK acutally underscores what was indeed so special about McGivers in "Space Seed". She was a super-smart historian, who, like John Gill, was seduced by a totalitarian and wound up helping to create a disaster. (I say she was super-smart because she obviously recognized Khan from the very beginning, and that's where her deception began: she chose not to tell Kirk.)

Did you know that when you flip the number 58,008...it resembles the word BOOBS?

Um, no. That's a new one, I guess. I never studied the subject quite that far...
What's with all the
anyway?Similar threads
