Default Star Trek 2 (XII) (Now with spoilers)

I thought this new movie might be thread worthy.

They've released the teaser for the new movie today. Looks like they'll be taking on Khan again.

EDIT: Apparently I can't read and this is a fan-made trailer.

Whats Ricardo Montalban up to these days?

I'm betting that hes chilling on a private island relaxing on a couch made of real Corinthian leather.

Or six feet under.

Montalbán died on January 14, 2009 at his home in the Greater Los Angeles Area, at age 88. According to his son-in-law Gilbert Smith, Montalbán died of "complications from advancing age". His cause of death was later revealed to be congestive heart failure.[30][31] He is buried next to his wife in Culver City's Holy Cross Cemetery.[32]
It's a shame Benicio Del Toro isn't going to end up taking on the role as Khan, as he would have been a step up over Eric Bana from the first movie (which was really its only weakness).

He died in 2009. Thanks, Kathie Lee Gifford.

Oh. Well then. I suppose I should have looked that up.

Did Chrysler at least pony up to upholster his casket in real Corinthian leather? That would seem to be the honourable thing to do.

The real one, when it is released, has a lot to live up to. The 3rd trailer from the first movie is probably the greatest trailer of all time:

when i picture Khan as a genetically engineered super human, this isn't the face i'd associate to him



the rumored casting looks far more like a genetic experiment

I had heard a while ago that it wasn't Khan, but that it will be a familiar villain from the original series.

I honestly hope it isn't Khan. Khan again would be super lame.

Crazy thing is that Khan could be implemented into the deviated timeline easily since he was put into hyper-sleep (?) in (according to the 1960s Star Trek universe) the mid 1990s.

If this franchise continues past the second or third movie, then I almost guarantee Khan shows up.

Trying to re-do Khan, could kill this franchise. Ricardo Montoblan, in my opinion played the best movie villain of all time in that role. To me, it would be like trying to re-make Airplane! without Leslie Nielsen or Rocky without Stallone. I just couldn't see it working.

Khan should be a retired character, nobody will ever top the original performance. I suppose the same could be said about all the other characters in the series, but I honestly believe Khan was the single best Star Trek character role of all time, including the original cast. He stole the screen from Shatner in ST2.

Lets ask Ricardo what he thinks, shall we?
