Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Manage episode 433108323 series 2877952
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is beloved by fans of the franchise, and lauded as the best Star Trek movie, with Khan himself as one of the standout villains, and Spock's sacrifice and resulting death as an emotional high point.
That wasn't always the case though. In fact, Spock's death was leaked to fans during production, and fans were not happy, even resorting to sending death threats to producer Robert Sallin.
Sallin, though, is one of the MVPs of this whole production. He would never work on Star Trek (or really in Hollywood) again after this movie, but his influence, ideas and steady hand would lead The Wrath of Khan to becoming a fan favourite. He was a man who put decency and integrity above his own selfish gains.
Gene Roddenberry was not happy about losing the creative control he had on Star Trek: The Motion Picture, but Paramount blamed him for a lot of the issues that movie had, and for the sequel, it would be a controlled affair, especially when it came to the budget...
Please listen to Episode 259 for the history and legacy of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, because that story is integral to the setting up of this one...
I would love to hear your thoughts on Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan !
