Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) - 4 trivia entries

Directed by Leonard Nimoy, starring Christopher Lloyd, DeForest Kelley, George Takei, James Doohan, Leonard Nimoy, Nichelle Nichols, Walter Koenig, William Shatner (add more)

Genres: Action, Adventure, Sci-fi, Thriller

Trivia

At the beginning of the movie Kirk rescues McCoy from a jail of some sort. Before leaving Kirk asks McCoy how many fingers he's holding up and does the Vulcan hand thing. However, Shatner had severe difficulties putting his fingers into place, they just wouldn't hold into position. So the crew wound up wrapping fishing line around Shatner's fingers, he would put them into position out of the camera and the shot quickly jumped while his fingers where still in place. If you look closely you see the line around his fingers. (Note that this problem occurred several times during Star Trek, actually, Nimoy and Leonard seem to be the only people doing this without a problem.)
