At least he left us a great body of work. RIP.

One of the best three IMO, along with Patrick Stewart and Christopher Plummer.
RIP

He set the bar by which all other Trek villains are measured. RIP.

Damn, such a shame.

I'm with Kendall; 88 is a hell of a run, but the world's overall acting talent just dropped significantly. RIP.

Re: Ricardo Montalban dies
Just saw this, figured I'd log in. Best voice going. I went through the roof when I heard him on Family Guy not so long ago.
Don't you hear my call, though you're many years away, don't you hear me calling you?

Ricardo Montalbán
On the update page you guys wrote some good words for a man who was truly a class act. Not many will ever be able to reach that level that he attained.

What he did, with ONE SINGLE episode, is priceless. Harry Mudd was a repeat guest star, but nowhere NEAR as memorable as Khan.

What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I takes awhile to learn all the tricks. I think I'm the most practised due to all the crap I did in the RP threads.
