    the khan episode of the original series is so cool and the movie is great too. the whole eugenics war backstory feels so evocative for something that's just a backdrop for a singular episode of a show they didn't even know would turn into something as beloved as star trek.

    ill also always love the fact that lenard nimoy was like "okay ill do the stupid movie but only if you kill my character so ill never have to do play him again" and then went like "oh actually..." after the movie turned out great. kind of a shame that they brought him back at all with just how fantastic the entire ending sequence to wrath of khan is.

      I like when they're talking about Khan's history in the magic briefing room and everyone is throwing Khan some gotta hand it to hims. And then Spock says the Dril tweet.
