Saw the midnight screening last night, have a few questions: Why was Khan the only hope to save Kirk? Didn't they have 72 other hopes sitting in tubes on board the ship? Surely any peril is removed from future films - "Uh oh, someone died again, better get some magic Khan blood to revive them." Why did Khan beam the photon torpedoes (his "crew") on to his ship? He just said they don't require oxygen, so he could've beamed them into space first to make sure Spock wasn't trying to trick him. Or he could've used his magic transporter to beam them to some field on earth/some other planet. I don't think someone who's supposedly super intelligent would be so easily fooled.

Completely out of nowhere nerd-rant: The line where Spock accuses Khan of committing genocide on anyone who's inferior doesn't match up with these lines in Space Seed: SCOTT: There were no massacres under his rule. SPOCK: And as little freedom. MCCOY: No wars until he was attacked. Just sayin'.

TheBigBudgetSequel posted:Did TOS every explicitly state that Khan was of Indian decent? That isn't a snarky question, it's just that I haven't seen Space Seed in a very very long time and do not remember. From Space Seed: MARLA: From the northern India area, I'd guess. Probably a Sikh. They were the most fantastic warriors.
