On June 4, 1982, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was released and had the biggest opening weekend of all time! Until Return of the Jedi blew it out of the water the following summer but whatever I've posted these before in other threads, but for GBSers let's travel back in time to 1982 via the world wide web:

Still pissed Kirstie Alley didn’t sign up for Search for Spock and we ended up with dark match Adrienne Barbeau.

Nicholas Meyer: "And you can see the problems, like the man who crossed the Idaho potato with a sponge. Tasted horrible but it's sure a helluva lot of gravy. I don't exactly know how that fits in, but I do know, I don't think a bunch of people can sit around and say 'I don't think this should happen' because then you get a movie that comes and looks like something stamped on office furniture."

All of the original Star Trek was Nimoy wanting to play 'Waiting for Godot' with Shatner and settled for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

Kirk promised Khan that the Federation would be along to help and check up on them and such. One of the Enterprise crew even stayed with them and married Khan, who he then lost to local wildlife. Whether Khan is bad or not, and regardless of his action on board the Enterprise... there was a whole group settling on Ceti Alpha 5, not just him. For Kirk to just leave all of them there and completely forget about them, reporting nothing of their settlement back to the Federation, effectively marooning them, is unforgivable. Khan did nothing wrong.

One of the Enterprise crew even stayed with them and married Khan, who he then lost to local wildlife. There's an extremely telling moment when Captain Terrell says to Kirk about Khan, "He's completely mad, Admiral. He blames you for the death of his wife." And Kirk cuts him off dismissively: "I know what he blames me for." Except he doesn't. Kirk arrogantly thinks he still understands Khan's motivations, but he doesn't even know what happened to Ceti Alpha V. He leaves himself wide open to be blindsided at the end, because not in a million years does Kirk expect Khan to destroy himself and his followers just to spite him.

Star Trek is better than Star Wars. It always has been and it always will. What's that you say? The new Star Trek stuff is horrible? Well, have you seen the new Star Wars stuff? I mean any of it since the 90s?

Now, now, no need to fight, there's plenty of room for both Star Wars and Star Trek to be terrible.

Kirk was a Starfleet admiral at the time of the movie; of COURSE the Enterprise is in trouble because of a screwup by a Starfleet admiral, that's just tradition. Hell, he still was an admiral in III also and it got even WORSE; they didn't just demote Kirk in IV to put him back on his ship, they were scared if he remained an admiral (even one in prison) the universe would probably explode next.
