    How dare you! Wrath of Kahn was/is really good. Or fun. Or both.

    The first movie, oh god that was bad. But I would rather watch any of them (including the TNG ones which weren’t great) over the new ones. Now those are bad.

      Have you seen the director’s cut of The Motion Picture? I think it’s pretty good. They were clearly influenced by 2001 Space Odyssey.

        I have not but now that you mention it, and I knew the first release was rushed, I am intrigued.

        When I get a chance to watch a big screen TV I will give it a try!

        Thanks for posting.

      What made Khan so great was…KKKKKHHHHHHAAAAAANNNNNNNN!!!

      Seriously, Khan was the perfect archenemy for Kirk. An over-acting bad guy vs. an over-acting good guy. Lots of hammy goodness.

      I love that your esteem for the old movies has improved based on how bad the new ones are.
