Daily Dialogue — December 10, 2010

“Khan!”

 — Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner), Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), screenplay by Jack B. Sowards and Nicholas Meyer, story by Harve Bennett and Jack B. Sowards, television series by Gene Roddenberry

The Daily Dialogue theme this week is five words or less — maximum impact, minimum words — suggested by CWillGoWrite. Star Trek II suggested by The Grinder.

Trivia: Producer Harve Bennett viewed all the original “Star Trek” (1966) episodes and chose “Star Trek: Space Seed (#1.22)” (1966) as the best candidate for a sequel. Spock even remarks in the script that it would be interesting to return in a hundred years or so to see what type of civilization had grown there. This is the first time a movie was made as a sequel to a specific television show episode.
