I am and forever shall be … your friend!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Wrath of Khan is just about a perfect movie. You don't have to be a Star Trek fan, or into scifi even, to enjoy it. Everything you need to know is presented to you, and in a way that feels natural. Anybody ever asks what it's about, just think of it like the Royal Navy fights pirates, out for revenge because the captain marooned them on a desert island, in space!

Also Scotty tells Kirk that he got like space clap or something while on shore leave, in front over everyone.

Ceti Alpha V was not the same planet that Kirk marooned the crew of the Botany Bay on at the end of TOS:Space Seed, it wasn't a "desert island".

It was inhabitable but 6 months later Ceti Alpha VI exploded and shifted the orbit of Ceti Alpha V and it became a barren wasteland. Khan was pissed that Kirk basically forgot about them and never bothered to check on them all those years.

I reprogrammed the simulation so it was possible to rescue the ship.

What?

He cheated!

The best of all the Star Trek movies, IMO by a substantial margin.

I'm a little over the whole "Khan is the best" argument. My favorite is The Undiscovered Country.

I don't know you.

But you. . . I never forget a face. Mr.... Chekov, isn't it? I never thought to see your face again. . . *



*so many nerds whine that Chekov 'wasn't on the Enterprise' when Khan was on the Enterprise (in the episode Space Seed).'

Well, the Enterprise had 430 crewmembers on board, and they never showed EVERY SINGLE ONE of them every episode. Meaning, Chekov could have been on the ship; just not on the bridge crew that episode.

Walter Koenig (allegedly) used to joke that Chekov was using the bathroom when Khan really needed it. . .

That part isn't important to tell, in fact it's kind of a surprise. Checkov is like, "Bruh, what are you doing on this desert island? We left you on the nice one with the coconuts and the pigs that make perfect bacon!"

And then Khan goes, "Fuck you, borscht boy, this is the tropical paradise! The other island had a volcano and it erupted and fucked our shit! Now there's no coconuts, or pigs with the perfect bacon, just kitty litter monsters that eat your brain and don't taste good at all! Also, my wife is dead, dickhead!"
