The comment you're replying to already mentioned this.

>In both movies, she has nearly zero amount of dialogue relating to romantic interest, and acts and is treated as just someone, not specifically a woman, on the crew...which makes sense given that the character was originally written for a man.

I'll add 'commenting to HN' to the list of things I'm not allowed to do until the first coffee has managed to saturate my brain... goes to stare at wall.

The fact that all the characters were written as unisex is interesting, so thanks for that. :)

having an all male crew do not make it impervious to romantic interest.
