The Director’s Cut of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, widely considered the best Star Trek film, is getting a special theatrical release this September to celebrate its 3.

An untried director, budget cuts, a star killed in the first scene. Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan didn't have the makings of a classic.

TWOK has endured as the most revered Trek film. After lamenting not having been able to come up with a profound answer to a question he’s gotten repeatedly over the last 3.

I don’t know.” As he's done before he likened his science fiction masterpiece to a soufflé: “Some rise, some don’t. This one did.”In the video intro to the screening, Shatner reportedly puts to rest once and for all the urban Trek legend that his late co- star Ricardo Montalban wore a prosthetic while filming to give the appearance of a muscular chest appropriate to the bio- engineered superior man Khan was supposed to be. Not so, said Meyer, who confirmed it was all manly Montalban. Shatner explains that Montalban suffered a spinal injury when a horse rolled on top of him while shooting Across the Wide Missouri in 1. As a result of the injury Montalban would always walk with a limp and to compensate he worked constantly to strengthen his upper body, yielding the impressive physical specimen seen in TWOK.

Midshipmen Peter Preston, a more important red shirt than we thought. Image courtesy: Paramount.

The biggest revelation of this Director’s Cut is that Midshipman Peter Preston is Scotty’s nephew. This explains why a weeping Scotty brings the mortally wounded Preston to the bridge, which in the theatrical cut seemed to have Scotty putting Preston inexplicably ahead of the other trainees who were injured or killed in Khan’s attack. Said Meyer, “I felt the omission of Scotty's avuncular relation to Midshipman Preston made his emotional reaction to the death of this particular crewman arbitrary at best and out of proportion at worst.”There have been rumors over the years of revisions Meyer and late producer Harve Bennett had to make to the script to accommodate scheduling needs or entice main cast members back. Though indeed there were five wildly different script attempts before Meyer completely rewrote the whole thing in just 1. The decision to omit a face- to- face meeting between Kirk and Khan, for example, had nothing to do with Montalban’s rumored scheduling conflicts; in fact it was the plan all along, playing into the dueling sea captains motif Meyer transplanted from the Horatio Hornblower novels. And the only enticing needed to enlist the core cast came in the form of Bennett promising Leonard Nimoy a great death scene, which Meyer certainly delivered.

The most iconic moment of TWOK and probably all Trek films is the death of Spock. I asked Meyer if he knew, either when writing it or filming it, that he’d captured something special. He responded, “Henry James said that Life is hot but Art is cool. If you are the puppeteer you cannot be out front, sobbing at the performance; you must remain dry- eyed behind the scenes and make sure the strings do not become tangled. I have been, and always shall be.. Image courtesy: Paramount“Maybe this was not a bad way to approach Spock's death scene," Meyer said. Dry- eyed.. and concentrating on not getting 'the strings entangled,' I focused on the scene itself, on the staging, on the actors' performances, on the nuances.

I was vigilant that no detail anywhere in the frame should distract the audience from what I wished them to absorb. In the midst of my concentration on a myriad such details, I was astonished to see my cinematographer, Gayne Rescher, in tears. Then I turned to behold other members of the crew also weeping."Meyer shared a funny anecdote from filming Spock’s death. Apparently Nimoy took offense to the outfit Meyer wore to the shoot. Nimoy, he said, thought he had come to the set “dressed up as Sherlock Holmes.” Meyer explained that, while he had indeed adapted his own Holmes novel The Seven- Per- Cent Solution into the screenplay for the 1.

Holmes in his life. He did, however, wear a three- piece suit that day so he could go see the visiting New York City Opera as soon as shooting wrapped. I asked about the closing shot of the film, which depicts Spock’s photon torpedo casket lying amid the lush greenery of the Genesis planet, and which had been inserted by Paramount over Meyer’s vehement objections. His initial reaction as he put it was “utter astonishment.” I asked if he still thinks it was the wrong call to give fans a hint that Spock would return. To that he said simply, “I think I got it wrong.” He went on, “As I watched, I began to appreciate the whole thing from a different perspective and, in God's words, ‘Saw that it was Good.’” He said he wasn’t thinking in terms of a franchise at the time and looking back he now sees the elegance of TWOK’s cliffhanger ending. Though Meyer isn't able at the moment to discuss his work as a writer and producer on the upcoming TV series Star Trek: Discovery, I dared to ask him about the other new Star Trek property he’s reportedly working on.

No details of any kind have been released about the mystery project yet, but Meyer did confirm that such a project exists: “I can say it’s something I’m excited about. I will allow that.”Tickets for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan 3. Anniversary screening can be purchased online at Fathom.

Directed by Nicholas Meyer. Written by Jack B. Sowards. At the end of the universe lies the beginning of vengeance. James T. Kirk[edit][eulogizing Spock] We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet it should be noted, in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most..

Dialogue[edit][Captain Terrell meets Khan and his followers]Khan Noonien Singh: Captain! Captain. Save your strength, Captain. These people had sworn to live and die at my command two hundred years before you were born!

Do you mean he [refers to Chekov] never told you the tale? To amuse your Captain, no?

Never told you how the Enterprise picked up the Botany Bay, lost in space from the year 1. Capt. Terrell: I've never even met Admiral Kirk! Khan: 'Admiral?' 'Admiral!' 'Admiral'..

Never told you how Admiral Kirk sent 7. Chekov: [furious] You lie! On Ceti Alpha V there was life!

A fair chance - Khan: [shouts]THIS IS CETI ALPHA V!!![walks back to Chekov and calms voice] Ceti Alpha VI exploded six months after we were left here. The shock shifted the orbit of this planet, and everything was laid waste.

Admiral Kirk never bothered to check on our progress! It was only the fact of my genetically- engineered intellect that allowed us to survive.

On Earth.. (grins wistfully).. I was a prince.. with power over millions. Chekov: [angrily] Captain Kirk was your host. You repaid his hospitality by trying to steal his ship and murder him!! Watch Maria Sharapova: The Point Mojoboxoffice. Kirk: Khan, how do we know you'll keep your word? Khan: Oh, I've given you no word to keep, Admiral.

In my judgment, you simply have no alternative. Kirk: .. I see your point.[James Kirk has just seen Clark Terrell commit suicide and Pavel Andreievich Chekov collapse in agony.]Kirk: Khan, you bloodsucker!

You're gonna have to do your own dirty work now! Do you hear me? Do you? Watch Five Star Day Megavideo more. Khan Noonien Singh: Kirk! You're still alive, my old friend! Kirk: Still - -"old friend!" You've managed to kill just about everyone else, but like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target! Khan: Perhaps I no longer need to try, Admiral.

Genesis components]Kirk: Khan.. Khan, you've got Genesis, but you don't have me! You were going to kill me, Khan; you're going to have to come down here! You're going to have to come down here! Khan: I've done far worse than kill you. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on.. I shall leave you as you left me.

As you left her. Marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet.. Kirk: [exploding with rage, able to stand no more]KHHHHAAAAAAAAN!!![cut to a shot of the planetoid] [echoing] KHHHHAAAAAAAAN!!! Lt Saavik: [to Kirk] On the test, sir. Will you tell me what you did? I would really like to know. Dr Leonard Mc. Coy: Lieutenant, you are looking at the only Star Fleet cadet who ever beat the "No- Win" scenario. Saavik: How? James Kirk: I reprogrammed the simulation so that it was possible to save the ship.

Saavik: What?! David: [chuckles] He cheated! Kirk: Changed the conditions of the test.. I don't like to lose.

Saavik: Then you've never faced that situation, faced death. Kirk: I don't believe in a "no- win" scenario. Kirk to Spock. Spock: [on communicator] Spock here, Admiral. Kirk: Captain Spock, it's two hours. Are you ready? Spock: [on communicator] Right on schedule, Admiral. Just give us your co- ordinates and we'll beam you aboard. Kirk: All right.[to a completely dumbfounded Saavik] I don't like to lose.

Saavik: [still arguing WHILE beaming aboard the Enterprise] But the damage report! We were immobilized! Captain Spock said it would be two days! Kirk: Come, come, Lieutenant. You of all people go by the book! Saavik: By the book? Kirk: By the book!

Regulation 4. 6A: "If transmissions are being monitored during battle - -"Saavik: [astonished] "- no uncoded messages on an open channel." [looking at Spock] You lied! Spock: I exaggerated.

Kirk: Hours instead of days; now we have minutes instead of hours! Joachim: [not just as subordinate to superior but as son to father as well] We're all with you, sir, but consider this. We are free. We have a ship, and the means to go where we will. We have escaped permanent exile on Ceti Alpha V. You have proven your superior intellect, and defeated the plans of Admiral Kirk. You do not need to defeat him again. Khan Noonien Singh: He tasks me.

He tasks me, and I shall have him. I'll chase him round the Moons of Nibia and round the Antares Maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before I give him up! No one responds.] Prepare to alter course.[Kirk hails Khan]Kirk: This is Admiral Kirk. We tried it once your way, Khan - - are you game for a rematch? Khan sits there silently shocked.] Khan, [mockingly] I'm laughing at the "superior intellect." [voice dissolves into an inaudible chuckle]Khan Noonien Singh: [barely able to restrain his passionate anger] Full impulse power. Joachim: No, sir!!

You have Genesis! You can have whatever you - -Khan: [angrily grabs Joachim] FULL POWER, [shoves him aside]DAMN YOU! Leonard Mc. Coy: Are you out of your Vulcan mind? No human can tolerate the radiation that's in there! Spock: As you are so fond of observing, Doctor, I am not human. Mc. Coy: [grabs Spock by the shoulder] You're not going in there!

Spock: Perhaps you're right. What is Mr. Scott's condition? Mc. Coy: Well, I don't think he's - Spock: [nerve pinches Mc. Coy] Sorry, Doctor, but I have no time to discuss this logically. Scotty's gloves and mind melds with Mc. Coy]Remember.[seeing Spock lying immobilized in the radiation- filled chamber, Kirk runs towards it]Mc.

Coy: NO!! You'll flood the whole compartment! Kirk: He'll die.. Scott: Sir! He's dead already. Mc. Coy: [stricken] It's too late. Kirk: Spock! Spock: [climbs slowly to his feet and walks over to Kirk] Ship..

Kirk: Yes. Spock: Don't grieve, Admiral. It's logical. The needs of the many outweigh.. Kirk: The needs of the few..

Spock: - or the one. I never took the Kobayashi Maru test, until now. What do you think of my solution?

He kneels.] I have been.. He places his hand on the chamber glass, and his voice is a whispered broken husk.] Live long and prosper! Kirk: [places his hand against the glass as Spock slumps and dies] No. David: Lieutenant Saavik was right: You never have faced death. Kirk: No, not like this.

I haven't faced death. I've cheated death. I've tricked my way out of death and - patted myself on the back for my ingenuity. I know nothing.. [But he cannot bring himself to complete his complaint, "I know nothing of death."]David: You knew enough to tell Saavik that how we face death is at least as important as how we face life. Kirk: Just words.

David: But good words! That's where ideas begin. Maybe you should listen to them.

I was wrong about you.. I'm sorry. Kirk: Is that what you came here to say? David: Mainly. And also that I'm proud.. I’ve always wanted to make a movie with submarines and destroyers and people torpedoing each other — a sort of case of arrested development — but I thought, ‘Oh, OK, this is about the Navy. I know how to do this. And Khan, because I’d seen that episode ‘Space Seed,’ and I thought, ‘Oh, that guy must be pretty angry by now.
