Both of which are better and more coherent than Into Darkness. This second Abrams film left me cold, honestly, but the next one - Star Trek: Beyond - was a big improvement.
And in the real time line, red was operations and gold was security engineering, except for Data, who should have worn blue, but the paint job worked better with a gold uniform.
Class M comes from the Vulcan classification (M for Minch'ara) that Earth took as a reference. It describes livable planets for humanoïds like us or Vulcans. IRL we would classify those as Earth type planets. The big disk on the front of the cylindrical part of the ship is the main deflector, pushes space dust out of the way. Can emmit some EM waves too to serve as long range sensor or transmitter in some circumstances. Vulcans are telepaths although it requires contact, physical or close. In the Ancient Vulcan practices, Vulcans mindmelded with a dying person to keep that person's memory intact, so their knowledge and experiences were not lost. The Vulcan Nerve Pinch (on the neck) is designed to make someone lose consciousness. Doesn't work on every species though. Fun fact, in the previous movie you watched, the Klingons actually captured Nero and tortured him but that scene was scrapped from the movie. Uniforms color code in those three movies and the Original series: Yellow/Gold : Operations/Command. Blue : Science/Medical Red : Engineering/Security. In The Next Generation era productions, Gold and Red are reversed, Red is Command and Gold is Operations/Engineering/Security. Kronos should be spelled Qu'onos or I never know where the ' is supposed to be anyway, Klingonese is quite a difficult language (that you can learn for real... but be ready to have mediation for your throat) Kahn's story is a little different in the Second old movie, you should watch TOS episode Space Seed first. The problem with Into Darkness is that it changes what Space Seed would have been in making Marcus and not Kirk find Kahn, that's why watching the episode is better to understand Wrath of Kahn to see the original succession of events. Although, I don't remember seeing the actual episode before the movie (the movies summerizes what happened in the episode anyway...) so it's up to you. Don't worry about Into the Abrams trilogy, it just introduces you to the universe in a very condensed way. The original Kirk is flirty but not as much as young cocky Kirk here, they clearly exaggerrated the "womanizer" side of the character. You are smart enough to detect a bullshit scenario from lightyears away, that's why you will love the old movies.
Miss Biss, one of the unique talents that Vulcan have is the Vulcan Nerve Pinch. All through the original series Spock almost never hit anyone because he never had to. He just reaches out and pinches them very lightly on the shoulder/side of the neck and they pass out. So when he’s fighting Khan he tried to do that and the struggle on Khan’s face was to show he was so powerful that Spock couldn’t just overload his nervous system. You seemed confused, but there’s no way you could know about that since you haven’t watched much Star Trek.
@@passionsquietrage I seen a Marine gunny use that pressure point on two brawling bikers at a county fair. One biker pissed his pants. The other one had an epileptic fit. Both agreed to end the fight.
Khan's story begins with an episode of the original Star Trek Series. They Brought him back for the Wrath of Khan. They explain that origin in the Movie, so just sit back and Enjoy!
"Wrath of Khan" has a very abbreviated explanation of the events of "Space Seed". I believe the movie will make more sense and the stakes will feel a lot higher if she watches "Space Seed" first.
Many things in this movie are a twisted parallel with the older movie Wrath Of Khan, which in turn is inspired by the old tv episode Space Seed. There are probably questions that could be answered by first seeing these three in chronological order.
Biss, you will want to watch the original Star Trek television episode, "Space Seed" before you watch "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan." The original timeline Spock references it in "Star Trek Into Darkness" without spoilers.
I'm glad you started this journey. There are going to be people (just like in any fandom) that don't like reboots, or complain about ine thing or another, but as a fan of TOS, the original movies, TNG and the Star Trek universe, I'm glad that these new movies have brought newer fans into the universe and made them curious about exploring more. There are many things about this newer series of movies that will be difficult to understand regarding the importance of because of how it relates to the original series and movies, but if you choose to continue your journey and go back and watch them, will end up making much more sense. So many people choose not to do Star Trek because it is pretty vast, with lots of shows and lots of science things. However, there are many things in real life that have been directly inspired from the movies, including the old flip cell phones, as they look like TOS original communicators and more recently with tablet computers. Don't be intimidated and enjoy the ride. Many of us older fans are just happy that new people take a genuine interest in the universe. 🖖
I am not seeing anyone mention it, maybe because I am old enough to remember the TV series, but Wrath of Khan is actually a sequel of one of the TV episodes, "Space Seed." If time permits, you may want to watch that before Wrath of Khan movie.
The Wrath of Kahn will not answer all your questions. You need to watch the original series episode "Space Seed". The is the origin of all of the Kahn movies. If you watch Wrath of Kahn without watching Space Seed, you will be watching all three in reverse order. The correct order and the one that would allow you to watch and not end each with more questions is "Space Seed", then "Wrath of Kahn", and lastly "Into Darkness".
I've seen every Star Trek film and I don't think I was ever on the edge of my seat more than watching Into Darkness. I saw it with my dad on opening night for his birthday and then went back the following week to see it again with my brother. My whole family loved everything about it: the action, the humor, the great performances. It's all terrific and I'm always happy to see new Star Trek fans emerge no matter which movies they start with.
I've been a Trekkie for over 40 years now. Believe me years ago being a Trekkie was not cool😢. We were constantly made fun of by people, like JJ Abrams- you know people who do not like Star Trek and think it it's stupid😂
@nihilisticadventure my mom started me young, so I'm like maybe almost 27 years in? I'm not hard-core, tho.

As a working 30+ year old, I don't always have time to watch new content and give it my undivided attention.
This is basically a remake of “Wrath of Khan” considered one of the best sci-fi films ever. Unique because of the alternate timeline the first “Star trek” remake before this one set up. So it’s literally an alternate timeline of Khan.
@@JCG52577 Yes, thank you. 2009 was closer to Wrath of Khan than this one. You could barely count on one hand the number of similarities between this and ST2. Its missing nearly all of the plot points of the original film.
@@treetopjones737 You can't exactly blame the reboots themselves, as it was a standard style at the time that nearly EVERY action and sci-fi movie was doing. They were a symptom of the larger problem And its not a writing problem, as the writers have zero control over the visual effects, and how long they are on screen for. That's an editing and directing problem.
I grew up on Star Trek repeats... and I've seen all the movies too. so I am very happy to "share it" with you! as long as you're having fun with it, I'm glad you're watching them.
You must see Wrath of Khan, but if you want Khan lore, you NEED to see the old 60s show episode called "space seed" first. Even if you see no other episodes.
It's not so much the actors getting more comfortable with each other, it's the characters they're portraying getting more comfortable with each other. Don't forget, they met each other for the 1st time in the 1st movie. As you continue your Star Trek journey, especially once you get into the original series, you'll learn that the relationship dynamics between the characters, especially Kirk, Spock and McCoy, are a very important ingredient.
I think everyone would agree that Miss Biss is so good at figuring things out and being so cute doing it! Her reactions and commentary are simply the best!❤🥰😍🤩👍👍
I love these movies. I watched these before any other Star Trek and honestly without them I would have never watched any of the older Star Trek stuff. Some people just like to complain, these movies arguably aren’t even reboots since the original cast is mentioned and referenced within them. It’s just a different timeline, which Star Trek has has had different timelines in other series before
I was probably about 5 or 6 when I first stumbled across a Saturday repeat of the original Star Trek. it took me a while to learn how to do the Vulcan salute correctly, but then it became second nature.
one of the coolest scenes in scifi was a lazy reference to one of the actually coolest scenes in scifi? idk man you seem kind of mixed up about what cool is. its not just replaying everything again and again forever.
Another great reaction, Into Darkness doesn't have the best story in the series but visually its a beautiful movie and the characters and chemistry are great
to understand Khan you should watch the original series episode - space seed. then watch wrath of khan. im not a huge cumberbatch fan but i do believe he did a great job. in fact all the main actors really capture the essence of the originals.
If you want to know about Khan, you've got to watch one episode of Star Trek the original series ("Space Seed") and then watch Wrath of Khan. Wrath of Khan is a continuation of that episode.
5:02 Whaaaaatio? Shirts : Blue - Science, Red - Security and Engineering, Yellow - Bridge If you wanted to watch "Star Trek II - Wrath of Khan" then you should really watch the episode from the original Star Trek series "Space Seed" where we first meet Khan and his friends or the movie will be missing important context.
Class D - Planetary or moon with little or no atmosphere - Earths moon would fall under this classification. Class J/T - Gas giant - Jupiter and Saturn. Class K - Adaptable with pressure domes - Mars. Class M - Terrestrial - Earth. Class N - Sulphuric - Venus.
Vulcans are much stronger than humans. They also have great powers of intellect and and telepathy. They can do "mind melds" as well as reach out to other telepathic beings from a distance. In their distant past, they used their telepathic powers to "unalive" people. They have since learned to control their strong emotions as well as their mental powers.
7:48 it’s funny when you said that it made me think of an episode of “The Orville” which is Seth MacFarlane’s tribute to Star Trek where they find out what their enemy prays to.
Shirts do indicate something Gold- Command Staff Blue- Science/Medical Red- Engineering/Security Before you watch Wrath of Khan, watch the episode Space Seed from the original TV series.
To get the origins of Khan, you need to watch the Original Star Trek series episode "Space Seed" from 1967. The movie "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" is a sequel to that episode.
and it poses a theme dear to Roddenberry of artificially created life and what happens when they reach human conscious thought and willpower, themes totally missing in the "action" movies of the 2009 movies
Class M stands for Minshara class. It is a Vulcan word for a planet that is capable of supporting life. The atmosphere is life sustaining for carbon based life forms (like humans and Vulcans) and plant life and animal life can flourish there. There are other classes of planets- class L is a frozen planet, class Y is a gaseous planet, etc. Class M is the class that a landing party can visit without specialized EV suits or oxygen tanks.
If you are going to watch The Wrath of Khan, you may want to first watch an episode of the original 60s TV show, called "Space Seed" - it's the episode on which Khan first appeared, and the movie (Wrath) is technically a sequel to that episode.
As others have said to get all of the Khan lore when you are ready watch "space seed" before the movie. Spock used the 'Vulcan neck pinch' on Khan which easily renders an ordinary human unconscious.
Kinda new here - definitely check out the originals, you'll see the relationship with the Klingons is, well, complicated. Their look has also changed several times since the 60's for various reasons, and as one famous Klingon once said 'it is a long story'. As for Khan, watch the episode Space Seed from the original series before the Wrath of Khan for more context. be wary though - once you're hooked, you're hooked for ever. And there's a lot of Trek out there - animated series, spin-offs, movies. Enjoy.
To be honest, I can understand her decision to start with the newer ones. Star Trek at this point is such a huge collection of series and movies, some good, some bad, some iconic, thousands of hours to explore. It's almost impossible for someone new to the genre to get into it. So yeah, I think her reasoning is understandable.
Thank you, was thinking and told that the newer movies is a better introduction to the universe and if I enjoy them then I can go back for the first ones
John Cho aka Sulu is from "American Pie", "Searching" (Mystery Thriller Missing Kid Movie), "Harold and Kumar" (Comedy Trilogy) and "The Exorcist: Season 2"
Just in case you didn't know: Benedict Cumberbatch also spoke the dragon Smaug in the Hobbit trilogy. And not only is his voice great. He is HELL of an actor (but i guess you already noticed that). As for The Wrath of Khan (played by the great Ricardo Montalban) is the 2nd Startrek movie, so it's not such a long way til ya there when you start at the 1st one. Klingons are not really the BAD guys, just a race of awesome fighters who value honour the most. In this time here they were enemies of the federation, but later they even joined the federation. Greets from the "Kohlenpott", enjoy!
I appreciated your introduction and how open minded you are being at approaching this. I’m very excited to see you continue your journey with Star Trek! 🖖
Uhura's attraction to Spock makes sense because she's passionate about linguistics and Spock's inability to express emotions makes him mysterious in terms of emotional communication. It's like she's compelled to translate his heart.
Every young male with older brothers who grew up in the 60's knows the pain of the Vulcan nerve pinch, having been the practice dummy for those older brothers to hone their TV-acquired skills.
If you want to watch "The Wrath of Khan" I'd recommend you watch the episode "Space Seed" from the original series first, it might answer a lot of questions.
"For all the Marvel fans I'm not familiar with the Dr. Who." A disturbance in the Force shivered through Dr. Who and Marvel fans. 😜 I love you Bliss. That was the greatest unintentionable troll. 🤣
You need to watch the beginning of Khan's story. The original TV series with "Space Seed" Then second Star Trek movie "The Wrath of Khan" Then you will understand this movie about Khan. Also what made this version Very Special.
I hope watching "The Wrath of Khan" doesn't confuse you to much. It is excellent but it is an alternate timeline to these Star Trek Movies so it might confuse you a bit. Watching the "Space Seed" episode first from the original Star Trek series from the 1960s-70s (which is Khan's first appearance) would explain a lot, even if you didn't react to it. Finding it from a streaming service might take a little research.
As others mentioned, Kahn's story begins in the original series episode "Space Seed", and continues in the second movie "The Wrath Of Kahn". Don't miss the episode, as it gives you all you need to know to really understand Kahn and the second movie (and this one as well). And since the original series was serialized, you can watch that episode without needing to watch any other, no harm done. It'll help you understand Kahn and at the same time, help you understand if watching the original series is your cup of tea. While I love it myself, and the storytelling is on point, the show's special effects are well dated, and the pacing is much slower than what we're used to these days. Watching one episode will help you decide if you want the rest of them, or if you'll move on directly to the movies.
Yes Dr Strange is Marvel played by the actor playing Kahn in this. Dr who is a whole other universe/series you might want to get into at some point but it's a BIG commitment. Id recommend putting your Kahnuriosity on hold for a bit. If you went to Wrath of Kahn straight from here it could get confusing.
You’ll always get haters. It’s part of the gig. Just be you. Watch if you like to watch. Most of the haters are troller. It comes with every UA-cam channel. But, your true fans will follow. And more will come. Don’t turn it into their channel. This is your channel. Brush off the hate. There’s more love than the hate. Much love
I'm 58 and I've seen everything Star Trek. This is my favourite movie of all. Watching first time, when the villain introduced himself as Khan, I just thought OH... MY... GOD. How did I forget the timeline and where we are?! And Benedict Cumberbatch was an actor I barely tolerated but fell in love with after this movie.
If you want to understand the dynamics of Khan you first have to go back to his original Star Trek appearance. The StarTrek series episode that starts Khan is titled Star Seed.
I’m an old man 62. I have been watching Trek from the beginning. I look at these movies as an alternate reality. If a movie entertained me it is good. To me the new ones are good.
Alice Eve(Carol Marcus) is in other science fiction films. "Men In Black 3," "Replicas," "Warning," and "Criminal" come to mind. She's also unforgettable as the title character in "She's Out Of My League." Zoe Saldana, however, is the queen of recent visual medium sci-fi, with this trilogy, the MCU, and the Avatar movies.
I love that they get the Prime Directive and Kirk's demotion right. He isn't knocked down from Captain for breaking the Directive, it's for lying about it and refusing to take responsibility.
When you asked what’s the differences when it comes to the colors of their uniforms, it’s like this… Blue is for medical and science. Gold is for command positions and if I’m not mistaken for the pilots. Red is for engineering, security and communications. Of course someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
The uniform colors do have meaning. Gold is command, blue is science and medical, and red is engineering, operations, and security. There is a bit of a joke about "Red Shirts" in Star Trek, that they are the disposable extras who die instead of the main characters. If Kirk and Spock go down to a planet with two characters in red shirts who we have not seen before, guess which characters aren't going to survive the mission.
Biskit you are so intuitive and even 200 IQ sometimes. I think you lucked into a really good watch cycle. If you start watching the older Trek movies you will understand everything much quicker than a mortal. And the new movies have absolutely no spoilers for the old TV series and movies.
Hi Miss Bisscute 👋 Madalina 🤗 once again Happy birthday 🎂🎈 ( 28 ) 😊 As always the like button 🔘 has been Illuminated 😁👍👍😎🎇🎆🎙️🎥🍿 As One who owns A Large part of Star Trek Media ( DVDS ) From the Original series , Their Movies 🎥 Star Trek Generation TV & Movies , Deep space Nine & Enterprise !!!

I'm sure about a million people will respond, but about the color of the uniforms in this era.... yellow is command or management. HR kind of stuff. blue is for the science and medical positions. and red if for security and anything technical (engineering, communications, etc.)
Congratulations again on your last birthday 🎁🎈🎁🎈. Miss Bisscute, today in North America (including México) we are watching the total solar eclipse, I loved seeing your reaction to Star Trek in to the darkness just in this particular day.👍👍👍
These remakes were done to introduce Trek to New fans, so you watching them and wanting to watch the older ones is great. There is 1 episode of the O.G. T.V. show that has Khan before The Wrath of Khan. So you would want to watch that first - maybe do it just before the movie, mix together into 1 video. The episode is called " Space Seed"
I said Doctor who twice !! My Mistake I meant Doctor Strange !
I know you meant Dr. Strange... but it's funny because the actor that played father of the sick little girl was actually in Dr. Who.
@mithroch Came to comments to say this 😂
Too late Biss, marvel hardcore fans are coming for you! ^^
That's Strange, I dodn't know Who you were referring to ;)
Here is the thing I learned a long time ago, Everyone enjoys what they like! Neverfeel like you need to listen to people who say you are wrong!
The Kahn story starts with the original series episode "Space Seed", then is continues with the second movie, "The Wrath of Kahn".
Both of which are better and more coherent than Into Darkness. This second Abrams film left me cold, honestly, but the next one - Star Trek: Beyond - was a big improvement.

In this era, gold uniforms mean command positions, red are security and ship operations, and blue are science and medical.

to understand Khan you should watch the original series episode - space seed. then watch wrath of khan. im not a huge cumberbatch fan but i do believe he did a great job. in fact all the main actors really capture the essence of the originals.
If you want to know about Khan, you've got to watch one episode of Star Trek the original series ("Space Seed") and then watch Wrath of Khan. Wrath of Khan is a continuation of that episode.
What I love about these Abraham’s- Treks is, they give every character their few moments to shine, in every movie. (Their “fifteen minutes”.)
5:02 Whaaaaatio?
Shirts : Blue - Science, Red - Security and Engineering, Yellow - Bridge
If you wanted to watch "Star Trek II - Wrath of Khan" then you should really watch the episode from the original Star Trek series "Space Seed" where we first meet Khan and his friends or the movie will be missing important context.
Class D - Planetary or moon with little or no atmosphere - Earths moon would fall under this classification.
Class J/T - Gas giant - Jupiter and Saturn.
Class K - Adaptable with pressure domes - Mars.
Class M - Terrestrial - Earth.
Class N - Sulphuric - Venus.
Vulcans are much stronger than humans. They also have great powers of intellect and and telepathy. They can do "mind melds" as well as reach out to other telepathic beings from a distance. In their distant past, they used their telepathic powers to "unalive" people. They have since learned to control their strong emotions as well as their mental powers.
7:48 it’s funny when you said that it made me think of an episode of “The Orville” which is Seth MacFarlane’s tribute to Star Trek where they find out what their enemy prays to.
Shirts do indicate something
Gold- Command Staff
Blue- Science/Medical
Red- Engineering/Security
Before you watch Wrath of Khan, watch the episode Space Seed from the original TV series.
To get the origins of Khan, you need to watch the Original Star Trek series episode "Space Seed" from 1967. The movie "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" is a sequel to that episode.
and it poses a theme dear to Roddenberry of artificially created life and what happens when they reach human conscious thought and willpower, themes totally missing in the "action" movies of the 2009 movies
I am just glad that you are checking out the Star Trek universe that is awesome.
Class M stands for Minshara class. It is a Vulcan word for a planet that is capable of supporting life. The atmosphere is life sustaining for carbon based life forms (like humans and Vulcans) and plant life and animal life can flourish there.
There are other classes of planets- class L is a frozen planet, class Y is a gaseous planet, etc.
Class M is the class that a landing party can visit without specialized EV suits or oxygen tanks.
If you are going to watch The Wrath of Khan, you may want to first watch an episode of the original 60s TV show, called "Space Seed" - it's the episode on which Khan first appeared, and the movie (Wrath) is technically a sequel to that episode.
Trekking fans are very forgiving and appreciate you Biss!😊🎉❤
Happy belated birthday Miss Biss🎉
The uniforms do have meaning, in this era, gold means command, red is for engineering and security, and blue is for medical and science.
Captian Pike has become one of my favorite Captians in Star Trek. Epically since Bruce Greenwood played him and now Anston Mount in Strange New Worlds
As others have said to get all of the Khan lore when you are ready watch "space seed" before the movie. Spock used the 'Vulcan neck pinch' on Khan which easily renders an ordinary human unconscious.
happy late birthday bisscute 🎂🎁😘☺️ you don’t look a day over 21 😍🥰😘☺️
Kinda new here - definitely check out the originals, you'll see the relationship with the Klingons is, well, complicated. Their look has also changed several times since the 60's for various reasons, and as one famous Klingon once said 'it is a long story'. As for Khan, watch the episode Space Seed from the original series before the Wrath of Khan for more context. be wary though - once you're hooked, you're hooked for ever. And there's a lot of Trek out there - animated series, spin-offs, movies. Enjoy.
Hi Biss!
Loved the reaction!
You might want to watch the original series episode Space Seed before watching Wrath of Khan movie.
Hoping you enjoy!
To be honest, I can understand her decision to start with the newer ones. Star Trek at this point is such a huge collection of series and movies, some good, some bad, some iconic, thousands of hours to explore. It's almost impossible for someone new to the genre to get into it. So yeah, I think her reasoning is understandable.
Thank you, was thinking and told that the newer movies is a better introduction to the universe and if I enjoy them then I can go back for the first ones
John Cho aka Sulu is from "American Pie", "Searching" (Mystery Thriller Missing Kid Movie), "Harold and Kumar" (Comedy Trilogy) and "The Exorcist: Season 2"
To boldly split infinitives that no one dared split before. lol
Just in case you didn't know: Benedict Cumberbatch also spoke the dragon Smaug in the Hobbit trilogy. And not only is his voice great. He is HELL of an actor (but i guess you already noticed that). As for The Wrath of Khan (played by the great Ricardo Montalban) is the 2nd Startrek movie, so it's not such a long way til ya there when you start at the 1st one. Klingons are not really the BAD guys, just a race of awesome fighters who value honour the most. In this time here they were enemies of the federation, but later they even joined the federation. Greets from the "Kohlenpott", enjoy!
I appreciated your introduction and how open minded you are being at approaching this.
I’m very excited to see you continue your journey with Star Trek! 🖖
Uhura's attraction to Spock makes sense because she's passionate about linguistics and Spock's inability to express emotions makes him mysterious in terms of emotional communication. It's like she's compelled to translate his heart.
Original, nurse Chapel had a hard crush on him. Uhura we never saw having a relationship with anyone.
Hi biss😁 I'm glad your enjoying star trek😁 great review👍 live long and prosper🖖😁 btw...nice thumbnail😁
Every young male with older brothers who grew up in the 60's knows the pain of the Vulcan nerve pinch, having been the practice dummy for those older brothers to hone their TV-acquired skills.
Fun trivia: Part of the Enterprise warp core is actually the National Ignition facility in the US where they experiment with nuclear fusion.
If you want to watch "The Wrath of Khan" I'd recommend you watch the episode "Space Seed" from the original series first, it might answer a lot of questions.
Will rather than might.
I always enjoy welcoming someone new to the Star Trek universe :D
"For all the Marvel fans I'm not familiar with the Dr. Who." A disturbance in the Force shivered through Dr. Who and Marvel fans. 😜
I love you Bliss. That was the greatest unintentionable troll. 🤣
That sound was Marvel fans ripping their hair out.😄
You need to watch the beginning of Khan's story. The original TV series with "Space Seed" Then second Star Trek movie "The Wrath of Khan"
Then you will understand this movie about Khan. Also what made this version Very Special.
I hope watching "The Wrath of Khan" doesn't confuse you to much. It is excellent but it is an alternate timeline to these Star Trek Movies so it might confuse you a bit. Watching the "Space Seed" episode first from the original Star Trek series from the 1960s-70s (which is Khan's first appearance) would explain a lot, even if you didn't react to it. Finding it from a streaming service might take a little research.
As others mentioned, Kahn's story begins in the original series episode "Space Seed", and continues in the second movie "The Wrath Of Kahn".
Don't miss the episode, as it gives you all you need to know to really understand Kahn and the second movie (and this one as well).
And since the original series was serialized, you can watch that episode without needing to watch any other, no harm done. It'll help you understand Kahn and at the same time, help you understand if watching the original series is your cup of tea. While I love it myself, and the storytelling is on point, the show's special effects are well dated, and the pacing is much slower than what we're used to these days. Watching one episode will help you decide if you want the rest of them, or if you'll move on directly to the movies.
It’s so cute seeing Biss all excited like this! 😂🥰
Yes Dr Strange is Marvel played by the actor playing Kahn in this. Dr who is a whole other universe/series you might want to get into at some point but it's a BIG commitment. Id recommend putting your Kahnuriosity on hold for a bit. If you went to Wrath of Kahn straight from here it could get confusing.
This was amazing to see you appreciate and get into it. Was so exciting to me.
Jeo she's perfecto a very curious mind naìed it
That thing Spock does when he grabs your shoulder is a strangle; by blocking blood from going to the brain he knocks you down.
That would only be true if he did both sides. His technique is referred to as a nerve pinch in the Star Trek universe.
As I recall there's a wrestling "sleeper hold" to do that.
You’ll always get haters. It’s part of the gig. Just be you. Watch if you like to watch. Most of the haters are troller. It comes with every UA-cam channel. But, your true fans will follow. And more will come. Don’t turn it into their channel. This is your channel. Brush off the hate. There’s more love than the hate. Much love
I'm 58 and I've seen everything Star Trek. This is my favourite movie of all. Watching first time, when the villain introduced himself as Khan, I just thought OH... MY... GOD. How did I forget the timeline and where we are?! And Benedict Cumberbatch was an actor I barely tolerated but fell in love with after this movie.
If you want to understand the dynamics of Khan you first have to go back to his original Star Trek appearance. The StarTrek series episode that starts Khan is titled Star Seed.
Loved this! Love your honesty and personality😊 One of your best reactions❤
Remember in the Movie "the wrath of Khan" it is in the alternate reality where "old Spock" is from.
I’m an old man 62. I have been watching Trek from the beginning. I look at these movies as an alternate reality. If a movie entertained me it is good. To me the new ones are good.
Alice Eve(Carol Marcus) is in other science fiction films. "Men In Black 3," "Replicas," "Warning," and "Criminal" come to mind. She's also unforgettable as the title character in "She's Out Of My League." Zoe Saldana, however, is the queen of recent visual medium sci-fi, with this trilogy, the MCU, and the Avatar movies.
Great Reaction Video 🎉
I just googled ship Enterprise ...
1st used to name a vessel ...
May 18, 1775 🖖
I love that they get the Prime Directive and Kirk's demotion right. He isn't knocked down from Captain for breaking the Directive, it's for lying about it and refusing to take responsibility.
"the admiral's daughter".... a direct steal from Top Gun!
yay I was waiting for this thank you bisscute my day is now complete 😘☺️
You would love the original series and movies, with these versions being heavily inspired by them.
I loved watching this movie in cinemas. Til this day it’s one of my favorites.
When you asked what’s the differences when it comes to the colors of their uniforms, it’s like this…
Blue is for medical and science.
Gold is for command positions and if I’m not mistaken for the pilots.
Red is for engineering, security and communications.
Of course someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
33:28 You should start with "Star Trek The Motion Picture"
It is an amazing film.
Alice Eve is a physical specimen!!!
The actor whose character blows up the Starfleet building played Micky in Doctor Who.
Great reaction Biss, i enjoyed watching this so much. I am really looking forward to your Star Trek Beyond reaction now
Before the movies, there was TV series 1960’s “Star Trek”. I think of it as the TARSIS 4 timeline: episodes “The Conscience of the King”.
The uniform colors do have meaning. Gold is command, blue is science and medical, and red is engineering, operations, and security.
There is a bit of a joke about "Red Shirts" in Star Trek, that they are the disposable extras who die instead of the main characters. If Kirk and Spock go down to a planet with two characters in red shirts who we have not seen before, guess which characters aren't going to survive the mission.
The look on your face when he crushed his skull was priceless! 😂😂😂😂😂
We love you for your reactions Biss!❤🎉😊
Biskit you are so intuitive and even 200 IQ sometimes. I think you lucked into a really good watch cycle. If you start watching the older Trek movies you will understand everything much quicker than a mortal. And the new movies have absolutely no spoilers for the old TV series and movies.
Blue is for science and medical
Gold is for command
Red is for engineering and operations
Hi Miss Bisscute 👋 Madalina 🤗 once again Happy birthday 🎂🎈 ( 28 ) 😊 As always the like button 🔘 has been Illuminated 😁👍👍😎🎇🎆🎙️🎥🍿
As One who owns A Large part of Star Trek Media ( DVDS ) From the Original series , Their Movies 🎥 Star Trek Generation TV & Movies , Deep space Nine & Enterprise !!! The only thing I Don't Have Is Voyager & TV's New Woke Series !!! However I Also own All the Star Gate movies & TV Shows except Star Gage - U my Sci - Fi collection is Vast !!!
Biss, to answer your question, the Klingons are a highly militaristic species/empire, particularly in this part of the Trek timeline.
Space vikings: pillage, burn and fight all day, drink all night
Though in TOS they look basically like humans, they didn't have the budget ( or prosthetics techniques ) to have the later appearance of Klingons.
@@treetopjones737 Seems like they did alright with Andorians.
I'm sure about a million people will respond, but about the color of the uniforms in this era.... yellow is command or management. HR kind of stuff. blue is for the science and medical positions. and red if for security and anything technical (engineering, communications, etc.)
You are right about that one actor being from Dr. Who. He played a character named Mickey who was one of the Doctor's companions.
I loved your first reaction. Thank you for that. I hope you enjoy this one. ❤
Watch ‘Space Seed’ first!!!!!!
That is the episode Khan first showed up in, WITH his crew. It’s the whole set up for the motion picture.
Your reactions are so wonderful! 😊😊❤❤
It's perfectly fine to watch these movies out of order because they are separate from the timeline.
Congratulations again on your last birthday 🎁🎈🎁🎈. Miss Bisscute, today in North America (including México) we are watching the total solar eclipse, I loved seeing your reaction to Star Trek in to the darkness just in this particular day.👍👍👍
These remakes were done to introduce Trek to New fans, so you watching them and wanting to watch the older ones is great.
There is 1 episode of the O.G. T.V. show that has Khan before The Wrath of Khan. So you would want to watch that first - maybe do it just before the movie, mix together into 1 video.
The episode is called " Space Seed"
Awesome reaction of my favorite Star Trek movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
