    I like both Khans, honestly. Montalban's performance worked for an older, more calculating Khan. Cumberbatch's performance, however, feels like he's fresh out of the augment lab he came from, thirsty for blood. Two angles of Khan Noonien Singh, both I find interesting.

    For all of Khan's sociopathic and arrogant behavior, he actually does have an Achilles' heel beyond those qualities. He *does* love his crew. We saw it in the Wrath of Khan and we see it here. Small fleeting scenes, but he does show true emotion for them. That's why he had to turn away from Kirk. Sure it may be because he only loves them because they are *his* but it's something. He'll never know true love so he'll take it in whatever form it's given to him; like the Borg Queen needing her Borg.

    Benedict Cumberbatch's Khan has the strength and intellect potentially surpassing Spock but he can be emotional and has leadership qualities like Kirk proven in his past as per what was told. Spock speaks in a logical and scientific manner and Khan mixes that with emotion which makes the lines all the more dangerous and captivating to hear. So Khan is essentially equal to Spock and Kirk both.

    • @numbaoneg101

      In the original Spock is more seasoned so is more of a match for Khan.
      In this series Spock is great but doesn’t have the experience to counter Khan. Thankfully Spock prime was available to give crucial guidance.
      Khan is spoken of as a two dimensional thinker iirc. His arrogance proves to be a vulnerable quality as well.

    Kirk and Spock missed an opportunity to defuse Khan a bit by explaining that the officers that were attacked were not a part of Admiral Marcus' plan and that Khan's attack killed the very officers who could have helped him expose Marcus, get his people back, and be free to go colonize a planet and start over. If Khan had realized that his rage led to such a mistake, he might have had that thought in his head later and used more self control in order to avoid making another mistake out of anger.

    • @Evenvesper
      @Evenvesper 6 років тому +8

      I think that Kirk and Spock miss several opportunities to defuse Khan.
      The underlining problem is that Kirk is young and wallowing in his grief and self-pity. Then there is Spock who lacks any ability to think/see beyond logic.
      The sad thing about the entire situation is that Kirk understands intimately how Khan feels, you can see it when Khan explains his actions. Kirk has the same reactions.
      It cannot be said for sure that all of the officers that were attacked were not part of Admiral Marcus’ plan. After all, you don’t start something that big without help from ranking people.
      It can only be said that Pike, Kirk, Spock, and perhaps the other first officers in the room were not a part of the plan.
      Be that as it may, it might have been possible to defuse Khan by reminding him that he did repay in kind for what he believed Marcus had done to him and his family. Marcus is exposed now, no longer a threat to him, and would pay for what he has done. His family is safe, it may be possible to be free to colonize a planet and start anew, if he is willing to leave in peace.
      Next, when Kirk, Scotty, and Khan take over the bridge of the Vengeance notice Khan actions. Once the bridge is secured Khan is in back of Kirk, he has a clear shot but he doesn’t take it. Instead his actions are those of one who is deferring to a leader, which in this case is Kirk. Khan keeps a phraser trained on the person he is guarding but he also glances towards Kirk, taking his cues from him.
      It is hard to say but there might have been a possibility that if Kirk hadn’t order Scotty to stun Khan, Khan may not have attacked. When Khan does attack it is brutal, it is the sort of anger that is seen in one who is betrayed.
      That so called clever stunt that Spock did with the torpedoes was idiotic to say the least! You watch this man put to the sword an entire squad of Klingons single-handedly to keep Uhura, Kirk, and yourself alive all because you threated his crew who were in the torpedoes,
      Then you pull a stunt causing him to think that you killed his family by firing the torpedoes, what did you think his reaction was going to be? If he didn’t have reason to hate Star Fleet before, Spock sure as fuck gave him reason to now!
      Sidenote on that last statement, Khan still believes his crew to be dead. He was knocked out during the fight with Spock and you can be damn sure they kept him out, took what they needed then put him in storage. So as far as he knows, his family is dead.

    I much prefer this version of Khan actually. The way the first Khan was depicted, with long, messy hair and dressed up like a medieval nomad despite operating a star ship was borderline ethnocentric. This image of Khan is the image of how you can easily project the image of fitting well into a civilized order while still being a megalomaniacal sociopath. The enemy that is so much harder to see and accept but so much more realistic.

    What made Khan and his crew so dangerous was they were ruthless. As he even said scientist genetically enhanced them to fight a War. So I'm pretty sure they committed war crimes against humanity to accomplish the task they were created for. Then when it was over they were convicted. As I seem to remember Kirk asking how they ended up in the cryotube ship. As Khan had stole it to escape.

    You can’t deny at the end of this video, even if Khan is a villain, when he asks Kirk that question, you can’t deny and have to admit, that he has a valid point. And Khan’s crew is his family, just like Kirk’s crew is his family. And when Khan asks that, you can’t help but feel and agree with him, even if he’s a criminal and a villain in this movie. And that is, Khan’s crew is his family. Is there anything that Kirk wouldn’t do, for his family? Like when Kirk went to save Spock from dying at the beginning of the movie to avoid his inevitable death in the volcano, he knew the risks. But he was still saving Spock’s life, regardless of that question, which again, is there anything Kirk wouldn’t do for his family, which is his crew?

    They should make a prequel movie about the Eugenics Wars...reading the 'Star Trek: Khan' tie-in comics by IDW really piqued my interest. Shame how the conflict has only been mentioned in passing throughout all Trek continuity, as it's a pretty high-end concept.

    There's a comic book prequel to this movie in which Marcus revives Khan and gives him a surgical makeover so no one would recognize him. I can't help wondering if people would've been more forgiving of Khan being cast as a white actor if that detail had been covered in the actual movie.

    Chris Pine really adds to this scene with the looks he’s giving Khan. He looks like Khan’s words have him in sort of a trance. Immediately after this scene when Sulu pages him, Kirk shakes his head before responding as if he was waking from a sort of dream-like state.

    That is such a brilliant and real line. I don’t blame Kahn for his actions, I love my family and yes I would do anything for them, if I were him I’d do the same. If only he found out his crew were alive then maybe things would be different. Why can’t villains be written like this everytime. Give them a motive, give them an emotional anchor to keep them somewhat sympathetic so the audience can understand them.
    The real villain was absolutely Adm. Marcus, he got so many innocent people killed and if his plan was successful it would have reached genocidal levels

    "You can't even break a rule how can you be expected to break bone?"
    Yeah that is the thing about war which is heartbreaking. They make you read the rulebook, they make you take their oaths, they go through all their training.
    And then it's time to choose between pulling and not pulling a trigger without a stun setting. And you write your report.
    And all the rules, regulations, oaths, concepts like dignity, decency, honour and honesty...all the spiritual and social values of a civilized and accountable society... no-one with authority normally gives a damn about them, as long as they get to type up "Mission accomplished" on a file and can convincingly deny accountability for nasty things in front of a camera.
    In times of war the law falls silent.

There are rules of engagement, courts, warcrimes. It is not human nature to fight and slaughter. Even for our worst instincts we have rules and values. To me, that is inspirational. Men aren't animals.

    Khan was very smart when it came to manipulating Kirk. A good man has morals and a heart, both can be used to your benefit, while a hardened or cruel man, can’t be easily manipulated since they are always on their guard. The only thing that kept Kirk from a sad ending was that, he had smart and loyal friends who were willing to do anything to protect him.

Well, now it almost seems justified he went and tried to kill those guys." Then i was like, "So, this guy helped uncover corruption high up in your military rank, gave you super blood that will later save you, helps keep you from suffocating in deep space and helps save your crew, helps you into an enemy ship and DOESN'T kill you or any of your teammates when CLEARLY he had the chance and you still try to stun him and take him away?

    I can't be the only one agreeing with the idea of a militarized Starfleet? The Federation is surrounded by belligerent alien powers like the Klingons and the Romulans, not to mention that the Borg will be bearing down on them within a century. Triggering war on purpose is wrong but setting aside all proper weapons and armies, sticking your head in the ground and bleating about "peace in our time", ignorant to the threats is even more unforgivable. This is probably my biggest gripe with Star Trek. Man will always be Man, there will always be a need for soldiers and warfare. I can understand why people in the 60's were so optimistic about abolishing war having just come out of WWII but lets not kid ourselves here, men have fought and killed since they first picked up rocks. Its in our blood and it always will be. Might as well learn to live with it.

The future of Humanity will probably be a cross between the Imperium of Man from Warhammer 40k, the Verse in Firefly and the UEG from Halo with perhaps a bit of the Systems Alliance from Mass Effect thrown in if we're feeling optimistic. A highly centralized and militarized civilization that must be so to combat threats from outside and in with a few outlying rogue colonies and pirate ports at the margins. Inner colonies closer to Earth are beacons of civilization and commerce and outlying colonies are hotbeds of dissent and less technologically developed yet vital for what they provide in terms of crops and raw materials.
