[quote:Anonymous Coward 41656121:MV8yMjY0MDQyXzM4NDc4NjYxXzZEOUMzRTNF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 29363518:MV8yMjY0MDQyXzM4NDc4MzgwXzgyRDNFMUNE] Although,I will admit Benedict cumberbatch made a better Sherlock Holmes than he did as Khan, he is nevertheless an extremely talented actor. (As Benedict is so slim, I think it would have been far better if he had been beefed up using a Batman-like suit,especially for those who remember Montalban.) Still his portrayal is excellent..notice the animal-like expression when he says to Kirk that he is Khan..very reminiscent of the Anthony Hopkins expressions in Silence Of The Lambs. His arrogance is not as overly dramatic as Ricardo's was, but it was there. More intellect..less sensual. The op is to be reminded that this is an alternate universe established by Nero and Spock coming through the wormhole and making a new timeline...Everyone is younger..including Khan. Spock knows he can be emotional in this timeline but still, his tears in the death scene are particularly moving as he seemingly finally understands the concept of human friendship. Karl Urban's does a ok portrayal of the folksy Doctor McCoy, but perhaps the film's best offerings are the tremendous expansions of the talents and contributions of Sulu and Chekhov . It is also fantastic to see the crews total teamwork on constant display. Just great! I also liked how Carol Marcus was brought into Kirk's life and the hints of their future romance. For me what was hard to grasp was Spock and Ahura. Following after him, she seemed to not be at her post too much of the time..and she even seemed to be giving him her permission to to get Khan. Still, it's a very minor complaint..they'll probably be married in the next flick. The two movies are very well done in my opinion.. the op needs to view them a few times to reflect on the individual colorings the actors gave to their characters..characters they knew that we knew. Even with my admiration of Cumberbatch, I too think a Latino actor should have been used..if only because the original was Latino. It's would be a logical continuation of a memorable villian. The op's opposition is however just ANTI-WHITE RACISM. This gives his criticisms a vulgarity that is totally out of whack with the diversity these two movies expressed so well. [/quote] No. Racism is the fact that TV and Movies are practically ALL White today even though society is mote multiracial than ever. My comments are intentionally crude to make a point. The point is that I SPIT on Hollywood. [/quote]
Original Message
Ricardo Montalban IMMORTALIZED Khan and made him Colombian forever.
Hollywood and its Welfare for White workers program had to go and screw with the Formula.
The movie was shit. More corn with mega CGI effects.
The Englishman could never seeth like Ricardo did.
It would have been a perfect time to introduce America to a new young Colombian or Dark Latino/Hispanic actor future star.
Star Trek was groundbreaking for its breaking of taboo's. It had the FIRST interracial kiss in American cinema between Kirk and Uhura.
It took head on issues of morality,race and societies evils by placing them in Science Fiction in the future.
In today's prefascist reboot of Whiteness world it is not surprising that they would try to dumb the public down on what Star Trek represents or represented.
