    OMG, you people are so funny I nearly died laughing!

    But all jokes aside, I can't comprehend how a seasoned space-captain, who used to battle Klingons and Romulans all over the galaxy, can get so emotional over a simple sub-orbital shot in a primitive chemical rocket.
    I thought that. Maybe he was missing Mr. Spock ?

    The needs of the few super wealthy outweigh the needs of the many. Mr Spock would not approve.

    In all seriousness, it would have been far more logical for the captain to say 'Gosh, what a disappointment ... that silly toy rocket couldn't even do warp-1.'

    William Shatner killed his wife.

    So after star trek he wasn't doing much or getting much work. So he kills his wife by the pool. (I listened to the 911 call...it was an act)

    Insurance money comes in and...

    All of a sudden he's on commercials and guest appearances on TV shows and now in space.

    I'm onto you Captain Jerk 🤨

    A shining career indeed for someone who really can't act very well. Years ago I saw him being interviewed on TV, then I started watching the grass grow outside and it got interesting. If he faked a 911 call it must have been the zenith of his acting career.

    True.

    I hear the new star trek captain is going to be gay.

    I wonder what Spock will say?

    Probably something about it not being logical 🤔

    And Marlon Brando is The Godfather, and Al Pacino is Mikey, I leave people to draw their own comparisons....

    So you're saying Pacino and Brando were lovers....

    I agree.

    I know not from whence you draw this inference, but they can love whoever they like, they can act, is the point.

    Brando was a horrible actor.

    It was like he was always fat and out of breath and just saying a sentence required massive oxygen intake.

    Pacino was great.
