 Seeing how much discussion we had over how to change Star Trek Nemesis, I thought we’d this time take a look at an icon of Trek lore: The Wrath of Khan. Taking on after The Motion Picture, The Wrath of Khan made much more story with much less of a budget. Even then, like any movie, it had to have its flaws. So, if you were given the chance, how would you change Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan?

 Obviously, he’s not going to say that the movie he's in sucks, but it is worth noting that one of Simon Pegg’s previous characters, Tim Bisley of Spaced, said “there are some things in life that are just fact. And one of those facts is that every odd-numbered Star Trek movie is s**t.” Speaking with Wired.com, Pegg was put on the spot about the line, to which he responded that there are exceptions to every rule, and that he has “been made to participate in his own wrong proving.”

 Promoting Fox’s upcoming series Fringe, the producer JJ Abrams and writers Roberto Orci and Robert Kurtzman (who filled the same roles in both Fringe and Star Trek (2009)), the trio revealed that the genesis of the series actually came while they were working on ST09. According to Kurtzman, they had several ideas along the lines of “Wouldn’t it be great if we could do a scene where this happened?” with within a few weeks evolved into Fringe.

 Putting on his ears was a “momentous occasion.” Even so, Quinto’s Spock is not directly based on that of his predecessor, Leonard Nimoy. “I really felt like my relationship to the character was specific to the text I was playing and to the world in which the character is being created right now, this time. So I didn't feel beholden to Leonard, other than to honor the origins of what he created, obviously. But I think the whole project was based in that philosophy, so it wasn't a problem.”

 It’s pronounced “mahkay-mahkay,” for the record. Just last month, the International Astronomical Union introduced the new subcategory of dwarf planets: the plutoid. Making full use of the new category, they’ve named the dwarf planet 2005 FY9 such an object and given it the name Makemake: the Polynesian creator of humanity and the god of fertility. Makemake is covered in red methane ice and is slightly smaller and dimmer than Pluto. It was discovered in 2005.

 Okay, not entirely (or in any way) instant, but fairly close together. Some countries will even be getting ST09 before the United States, which even today is a rarity, especially for a blockbuster film like Star Trek is expected to be. The May 7 and May 8 releases in certain parts of the world are to take advantage of the mid-week crowds and premiere norms in those countries, where the US is accustomed to the standard weekend release. So who gets it first? Belgium, France, and the French-speaking Swiss on May 6, 2009. Condolences to Taiwan, who won’t see ST09 in local theaters until July 25th, 2009. A full listing is available after the break.

 This past year has seen a phenomenal surge in fan productions, and Star Trek: Excelsior is no exception. The new audio drama series is bringing its first season to a close with it’s fourth episode, ‘Down the Rabbit Hole.’ In the latest edition, Dovan and Yubari have beamed down to Valandria in a desperate attempt to find and destroy the source of the Wasting. Lorhrok and Rol have found themselves cast twenty years in the future, trapped aboard a starship they know is doomed. Betra-Na and Sorid-Gee continue to wage war on one another. And the crew of the Excelsior is dying.... quickly.

 (From July 17, 2008) Just two months ago, we told you about a third Earth-sized red storm (Mini-Red) that had cropped up near Jupiter’s Great Red Spot. There were three options as the two storms converged: Mini-Red would either be eaten, destroyed, or move on intact. As it would turn out, the smaller storm was quickly gobbled up by the Great Red Spot, which is about six times larger.
