Why do people want a pretty Saavik? The very idea seems contradictory to me. She's a half-Romulan, half-Vulcan who spent her childhood as something of an animal. WHY would she be pretty? HOW could she? Curtis looks much more Vulcan/Romulan to me than Alley, who refused to have half of her eyebrows shaved to appear less human. (Nimoy has his entire brows shaved off and then has new ones applied by makeup, one hair at a time.) Could it be Stewart has a crush on Saavik? Maybe the kind of fantasies women supposedly had about Spock years back (and still, I guess)?
