Hey, now you both can get the Spock reference that was made near the end of Deadpool & Wolverine…”the noble sacrifice” part

2025-06-26 11:46:59 +0000 UTCWhat a film! A few fun facts: - As a few people have already mentioned - the reason Scotty is so upset when that engineer dies, is that it's his nephew. Can't remember if it's covered in the directors cut or novel...... - The montage before they enter the nebula - you were curious what they were doing...... The torpedo launchers were damaged in the initial attack; so they are manually loading torpedo's. You see the same room at the end, as Spock's body is launched from there. - In that same sequence, one of the extra's walking down the corridor towards the camera is a young James Horner, who wrote the amazing score for the film!

2025-06-13 17:59:18 +0000 UTCWhat I remember from wrath of khan it was well known that Nimoy did not want to go on with the series. Everybody always hoped that somehow everything will be rectified between everybody, but that cast had a lot of problems, usually because of Shatner, they really couldn’t stand working with him. It’s what makes galaxy quest so funny how the cast of galaxy quest doesn’t like Jason Nesmith, or whatever his name is. It’s kind of how the Star Trek cast viewed Shatner. Alan Rickman, not wanting to say “By Grapthar’s hammer…” was because Nimoy got sick of having to say Live Long and prosper. Then when he just nails it in ST:2, it was sort of a curse that never left him. Last i heard he was fine with the phrase because it had made him a buttload of money. It also wasn’t certain that they were gonna be more Star Trek movies. The first one was a bomb everybody thought it was boring. I think the movie is brilliant cause it’s exactly like a regular Star Trek episode, but it wasn’t action enough. It was boring to a lot of people, and so that movie did not do well or as well as the studio hoped considering they put a lot of money into it with special effects and stuff. Plus, Nimoy at the time was a hot shit Director. He directed Three Men and a Baby. One of his great acting movies is in invasion of the body snatchers. He’s freaking amazing and the movie that’s a great movie anyway you should watch it. It was apparent though that Nimoy was going to have to come back after Star Trek 2. That movie was a phenomenon. It’s one of those movies that everyone saw because the movie moves so fast. As a fan, the scenes with Kirk and Spock just ripped me apart, especially with the scene in which Kurt realizes that Spock isn’t on the bridge. The look that goes through Kirk’s face. It’s Shatner at his best. So Nimoy was kind of forced to come back for Star Trek three because Star Trek two was such a huge movie. He knew that everybody in the world was gonna go watch Star Trek three. So they were they could write their own ticket for how much money they were gonna get. Everybody knew that movie was gonna make money handover fist because of how shocking the Star Trek 2 death scene is. it became a phenomenon everybody watched the movie when it came out. The word of mouth for that movie was fantastic. As a fan, not knowing that Nimoy. was gonna come back it was gutwrenching. I went like opening night cause I’m a huge Star Trek fan and although there had been rumors that there going to be a death scene in the movie, you know you are hoping not to see that and then when it does appear and it’s so devastating. I mean that scene is just insane. The scene in which Nemo turns to the screen and looks right into it and he realizes hey I can go down and fix that from that moment until the end of the movie it’s just perfection. It’s also easily the best Star Trek movie. easily. Star Trek four gets a lot of credit, but as the years pass it, I don’t like it nearly as much as i used to. I think it’s essentially the same movie as Star Trek one. Which I think is the second best star trek movie Star Trek 2: the wrath of khan is the best Star Trek movie. The second is the first Star Trek movie. It was great because it’s most of all the movies is the one most like a real episode. So, two requests. Watch the 78? Version of invasion of the body snatchers, and rewatch GalaxyQuest. Now that you’ve watched so much TOS. You’ll just laugh your ass off. I remember you guys loving the Galaxy quest the first time around but you should watch it now that you’ve watched TOS. That movie is hilarious. Once you know some of the history of the original series. You should also look up when Shatner is on Saturday Night Live and he does a skit the he tells all these Star Trek nerds to go and get a life , it’s one of the funniest moments in Saturday Night Live history and Star Trek history. So three requests look that up on YT, Shatner on SNL

2025-06-05 19:55:38 +0000 UTCWith TOS knowledge, you can go through Star Trek 1 through 6. Part 6 is essentially the conclusion for the TOS crew, and Part 7 is the intersection with TNG.

2025-06-05 02:54:22 +0000 UTCI still like IV the best, but this one's just barely behind it.

2025-06-05 02:50:13 +0000 UTCSpeaking of classics, we see Moby Dick in Khan's bookshelf. "From Hell's heart, I stab at thee;" is from that book.
Ampersander7
2025-06-05 01:32:55 +0000 UTCI know, right? It's not often we get such a raw behind-the-scenes look at Cinebinge. The discussion over which of the two would get to "wear" Khan's decollete became so heated that I had to step in and say: "That's enough! Neither of you will get that exposure!" The thumbnail captures their response.

2025-06-04 21:54:33 +0000 UTC“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times”, is the opening line to Charles Dickens’ “A Tale of Two Cities”, the book Spock gifted Kirk on his birthday. “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done” is the last line from same book after a character sacrifices himself for the greater good. Always loved the way they spun that.
Aric Heintzelman
2025-06-04 20:51:11 +0000 UTCA bit of trivia: this movie was supposed to be named “The Revenge of Khan”, but got renamed to “The Wrath of Khan” to avoid confusion with the new Star Wars film, “The Revenge of the Jedi”—which subsequently got renamed to “The Return of the Jedi”, but “The Wrath of Khan” stuck. And I’m glad it did!

2025-06-04 19:03:59 +0000 UTCI know Simone and George are partial to the color uniforms, but the naval-style uniforms in the TOS Trek movies are my favorites. The flap that folds down is completely unnecessary but I love it anyway.
dc
2025-06-04 18:51:37 +0000 UTCThey’re planning to watch in release order, so TNG will start after Star Trek IV. I’m in favor—it’ll break up TNG a bit, since otherwise it’ll be a very long run.
dc
2025-06-04 18:50:29 +0000 UTCYou can tell that Nimoy enjoyed making this film. He shines in his role in the “Wrath of Khan”. It’s a great movie if you love Spock’s character.
dc
2025-06-04 18:48:39 +0000 UTCRegarding the death of Spock, it's bit of a complicated tale: Like you saw in the Trivia, Leonard Nimoy only agreed to return for this movie on the condition that Spock be killed off for real. He was tired of the franchise, and the way everybody associated him with Spock instead of himself. He had even written a book in the '70s titled "I Am Not Spock". The news of his death leaked during production, so they included the "everybody dies in the simulator" opening to throw everybody off. While making the film, Nimoy rediscovered his love of the franchise. it was apparently a great filming experience in-and-of-itself, and he reconnected with the other cast members as friends instead of forced coworkers. Nimoy had so much fun on this film that he directed the next film in order to stay involved with the franchise.

Robert Evans
2025-06-04 17:58:43 +0000 UTCA lovely reaction! You can imagine how hard this ending hit us when we first saw it in theaters. We were devastated. Interestingly, I'd already (over the previous eight years) come to the conclusion that Spock needed to die for thematic and artistic reasons. So when I saw it, I was sad, but not entirely surprised. In fact, George, after my dad saw this film, he consistently referred to it as "the film in which William Shatner plays a white whale."
Ken Schneyer
2025-06-04 16:44:46 +0000 UTCDepends on who you ask... This is a good movie, but is it "Star Trek"? 1, 4, 6... even god help me, 5 are "Star Trek" This is a good space opera, but it is definitely NOT high concept sci-fi. It is definitely in the "Even Numbered Star Treks are the Good Ones, until JJA".

2025-06-04 15:11:51 +0000 UTCfor a long time, this was the gold standard for Trek sequels, and movies.
Paul T Hewes
2025-06-04 15:07:40 +0000 UTCI remember seeing this when it first came out. The rumors were that Spock was going to die because Nimoy wanted it. The opening with the crew dying in the simulation and then Kirk saying to Spock "Aren't you dead?" felt like a wink at the fans made us wonder if the rumors were perhaps fake.

2025-06-04 15:05:03 +0000 UTCGreat that they included the opening frame of Kill Bill in this movie.

2025-06-04 15:04:47 +0000 UTCKinda weird he didn't take him to sickbay! He should have gone there before just hauling him up to the bridge to show him off like that!

2025-06-04 14:48:52 +0000 UTCI read in an interview that Koenig recognized the mistake but said nothing because he feared how his part might change. A lot of fan have retconned with various backstories and theories.
Robert Evans
2025-06-04 14:45:59 +0000 UTCI met the director Nichola Meyer at a convention in L.A. and confirmed that one of the brilliant things in this film was his idea not the editors. *every time* a weapon strikes a ship, eithe Reliant or Enterprise the very next shot is of people being hurt and killed by the event. It keeps the human coast of battle front and center so it's never just SFX and models.
Robert Evans
2025-06-04 14:43:17 +0000 UTCThe crew member Scotty brought to the bridge, who was mortally wounded is revealed to be Scotty's nephew in a different cut of the movie. That is why Scotty was so emotional over him.
Matt O'Keefe
2025-06-04 14:40:49 +0000 UTCGeorge. In my opinion the best time to start watching TNG is right after Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home which came out only a year before TNG started broadcasting in 1987. You could watch Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) before starting TNG without any harm, but the events in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country are inspired by a change in circumstances in TNG that the writers of the movie ran with, so at least start season 1 of TNG before Trek 6. As for the timeline. The last original crew movie is set in the year 2293 whilst the first season of TNG is set in 2364 so no timeline overlap at all.

2025-06-04 14:08:29 +0000 UTCI'm still surprised that Simone didn't know the plot of this movie...is amazing how she was kept safe from knowing it until this moment, I practically found out when I was 7 and hadn't seen any Star Trek media...

2025-06-04 13:48:12 +0000 UTCI'm so hoping they don't run out of steam before they get there! It's my favorite ST show!

2025-06-04 13:43:47 +0000 UTCI always chuckle when Khan and Chekov recognize each other because Chekov wasn't on the show yet when "Space Seed" aired.

2025-06-04 13:12:44 +0000 UTCSorry if this has been covered- but are you guys going through the whole franchise? Please tell me you will be watching Deep Space Nine in 4 years!
Randy Watson
2025-06-04 13:12:10 +0000 UTCOk,ok I figured something out. When they see food, they're instantly hungry. When George sees smoke, he wants smoke 😉 and now I've just noticed George is sometimes hard on the wardrobe department.

2025-06-04 13:11:03 +0000 UTCLongtime Star Trek fan and after 35 years of fandom, this movie is my number one Star Trek moment. Kirk's send off speech when his voice breaks was ad-libbed and always tears me up.
Nick Scholz
2025-06-04 13:04:12 +0000 UTCYou guys really need to check out the Saturday Night Live sketch where William Shatner hosted. The Enterprise has been turned into a Diner restaurant. It’s on YouTube. Enjoy!

2025-06-04 12:50:23 +0000 UTCNO Spoilers Star Trek timeline: Dictators who are genetically engineered divide up the Earth in the 1990s. Khan is one of them. There is a nuclear war in the 2030s and Earth rebuilds. Zephram Cochrane who you saw in the TOS episode with the female cloud creature who merges with the dying female diplomat invents Warp Drive in the 2060s and the Vulcans seeing Earth can travel faster than light opens relations. The Federation is formed in 2161. TOS takes place a hundred years later in 2266-2269. This movie and other TOS movies take place in 2280s or so. TNG takes place in the EARLY 2370s. DS9 and Voyager are in the LATE 2370s. Enterprise is a PREQUEL set in the 2150s showing early space adventures just BEFORE the Federation is founded. All the OTHER spinoffs have varying dates some Just BEFORE TOS and others AFTER TNG/DS9/Voyager
