Think about THIS !! Why not Gene Simmons as Khan? He has that LOOK,one must admit! Plus , I think Javier is busy with the next James Bond movie! He is not known for his acting but he is very very intelligent (ex- college professor) and is more than capable of pulling it off!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A lot of Star Trekkers object to bringing back Khan as did the Batman fanatics object to bringing back “the Joker” , but look what happenned. Everyone had second thoughts of JJ Abrams doing justice to rebooting the Star Trek franchise , but he did a great job and still everyone has a problem with the rumors of re-intoducing the Khan character. If he does, It will be great!! If he doesn’t , it will be great as well ! Rumor has it the new cast is signed on for 2 new movies. Maybe he will do something different and set up the Khan reboot for the third installment to follow? Something like having the SS Botany Bay in the last scene before the end of the upcoming sequel with a shot of Khan in his cryo-freeze coffin. That also would be extra COOL !! Then maybe, It would be possible to get Javier Bardem to be Khan! He would be Ricardo Montalban on Steroids ! Regardless, I trust JJ with the Star Trek franchise in his hands! He deserves credit for the awesome job he did with Star Trek 2009 !!

Let’s let Shatner retire. I love the man, a true icon, but let him go. I want new trek adventures since we’ve seen how good it will go! Javier Bardem is it for Khan, he has even the same face as Montalbahn. I want maybe a Gorn army with Harry Mudd and some androids. I do like a Doomsday machine story.

The ones I don’t want to see:

Trelan!

[...] sequel. Will Abrams return to direct? Who will be the villain this time around (there’s been rumblings of Khan making an appearance possibly in the same way old Spock did last time)… Heck, what will the basic plot [...]

” If wishes were fishes we’d all cast nets.”

Hey buddy, I know, I wished they had secretly taped carefully crafted scenes of the characters to use in movies after their all gone. What do you think the chance of that is? Everywhere I’ve said that, it’s never even registered a blip on the interest meter. Maybe a season of animated shows would be possible? Seeing all the Trek activity on line I’m surprised it hasn’t already come to fruition…

I see you point, but if they would bring Shatner back, it might be something I would enjoy watching. But a aprt of me wants to see something new with the new characters, withour any focus on the old ones…Let them become their own indipendent trek…..a well…lets hope they get it right

Really Joachim what is with all the fixation on this character, Kahn? He was one baddie among many and can’t we get a Star Trek story that doesn’t involve just a one on one showdown? Hey I’ve seen the TOS series many times and I even considered plunking down some cash for the recently re-released “ST2″ on DVD, since my copy is on VHS. The extras alone are a good excuse. This rut thinking is counter productive to the franchise though. Just another fan opinion yeah, but one that’s for moving forward not constantly looking back…

Things in TREK 2 (this are my ideas and not any official news)

# the SS Botany bay is found by the USS Hood by acsident. The Hood was undergoing repairs due a massive attack from the kingons.

# Kahn is revived by the crew and helps with repairs (in order to learn and manipulate – “whats going on and when should I strike – Hidden agenda until the end of movie”

# Meanwhile the USS Enterprise encounters a huge energy ribbon during a training exersise and gets hit, some die but in the pile of survivors the original Kirk appears. (Bones indentefies his DNA in medbay while he is knoked out)

# Kahn is brought back to the federation starbase where the enterprise crew and the original Kirk notices Kahn and tries to warn everyone (but gets rejected cause of kahns kind actions of helping the Hood out of trouble- this is a new timeline and things have changes etc etc..)

# Kahn and new Krik are sent on the same mission in order to neutrolize a big threat (no clue what that is…something we havent seen).

# At some point Old Kirk and the New Enterprise crew relies on Kahns actions in order to survive – and he saves them (Hidden angenda – in order to pursue hidden interest…weapon etc) But at the time apperas as hero of the day.

# The threat is neutrolized by new Kirk and Spock with old Kirk cooridnating (and is annoyed by new spocks lack of emotion)

# Old Kirk retires from starfleet and encounters old Spock in the prosess.

# Kahns hidden angenda is revealed and the plot for a 3rd movie is ready….

This is very vague…lot of plotholes…but It’s something worth considering.
And Old Kirk will get a worthy end in the prosess…killing him on the bridge was just cruel (generations movie)

Yes…slaugter my idea all you want haters…but this would be kinda cool. IF SHATMAN IS COMING BACK THAT IS….

The new crew could encounter him, or someone else pics up the bottany bay and they meet at the starbase….I know khan is not affected by the timeline…he has to be revived again..maby not by kirk…

By: Joachim Næss

Joachim Næss — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:26:40 +0000

Kahn could pretend to be an aly in order to learn more about the federation as in Space Seed, and then turn his back on them in the end for a cliffhanger thrid movie. Maby trying to get control of the entire federation, just waiting for the right moment.

Then the Original Kirk would have been right all along…

Regarding the Kirk issue…he is in the nexus so if the new crew would encounter the ribbon he would still be in there, leaving out yet another timetravel episode.

@Joachim
Problem is Khan has not been affected by the timeline change, since he went into cryogenic freeze in the 21st (or late 20th) century. Having him be an ally to any Federation person would not be feasible.

By: Joachim Næss

Joachim Næss — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 21:29:23 +0000

How about if they bring the Shatman back they could introduce Kahn from the new timeline as an ally of the new crew (until a potentially thrid movie). It would be fun to se the old kirk trying to get pass his old feelings etc…Having to rely on him, perhaps saving his life against the Kingons (or any other villan)

Just a suggestion….

I think doing Khan could be saved for another film, but as far as him being in the second film-well, that’d be trippy. Just as an homage to the original sequel(wrap your heads around that one.) But maybe this one should focus on Doomsday machine, or the vast possibilities of a Klingon war, or even deal with a “force of nature” type villain, like one of various higher beings confronted in TOS, and have Botany Bay discovered in the process. Then Khan could be used in a later film.

I actually wouldn’t even mind if the Tholians were explored more deeply in the movie. I loved TWOK (although my favorite was TVH), but I think doing Khan again would be a rehash at this point. Bring in something new OR something that wasn’t explained as well in TOS. Let’s get something NEW.

All valid points from all angle’s but no one touched on the fact that Khan was in the 2nd movie from the TOS, now almost eveyone wants Khan for the 2nd moive again WHY?????? Is it a must to have Khan in the 2nd movie??? The Gorn or a evil Harry Mudd (lol) on Mudd. I think if we redo a story from the TOS they should think of the Empire crossing over to our side this time….. just a thought but a good one IMO…

till next time

Shatner for sure. Young Khan battles young Kirk and old Kirk, with Khan winning…until McCoy, Scotty and Uhura battle back…and Checkhov sticks something in Khan’s ear to finish the job.

Shatner for sure. a young superpowerful khan, battled by young and old Kirk. and not necessarily winning.

McCoy and Scotty and Uhura saving the day.
