I really wish Paramount would redo the visual effects on the movies, especially the effects on Star Trek V, and re-release them on Blu-Ray.

That was really cool and a great re-creation of the scene from the movie but it isn't total accurate. During that scene in the movie you see a lot of the battle damage from movie 2 of the battle with Khan. In this re-creation, the ship looks brand new.

How the &@#&%*^@#% did Khan go from Indian to British!? If indeed he is an augment, chances are he's just one of Khan's goons. Alternate timeline or not, it still doesn't explain his change of ethnicity. The events of his "demise" in 1996 are still unchanged, since they happened before Nero's arrival.

May be he migrated in the alternate timeline?

Yes. People seem to forget this is another timeline, where everything is different.

Actually, it's the same prime universe up until the beginning of Star Trek (2009). The moment the Narada appeared is when the alternate reality was created. Khan was born in the mid-20th century, well before the events of the movie so he was unaffected by the changes.

I highly doubt Benedict's character is Khan. It's more likely that someone else found the superhuman sleeper ship and instead of Kirk waking up Khan in the prime universe, Benedict's character was woken up to possibly work for Starfleet. I think this is where Section 31 comes into play. They probably wanted the ultimate commander and must have trained Benedict's character. And because of his superhuman intellect, he's able to learn faster and retain more information than a normal human. Why else would he be wearing a Starfleet uniform in the trailers?

George Lucas was crucified when he did that to Star Wars.

I'm not sure anyone would cry over Star Trek V. The only thing that would save the movie, though, is a new plot.

I must be one of the few who actually like the 5th movie it seems. I think it went close to the heart of what is trek, going where no one has gone before, first ship to make it through the great barrier and all that. Plus I liked how focused on the characters and their relationships with each other are, plus seeing key moments for each of their pasts that defined them in life. I also really liked Kirks understanding that he'd die alone in the end, I thought it was a very strong message.
