Re: Benedict Cumberbatch To Access Hollywood: "I Am Not Playing Khan..

I've got to Khancentrate...khancentrate...khancentrate. I don't want to have a Khanvulsion. The Khancealment wont last much longer.

Re: Benedict Cumberbatch To Access Hollywood: "I Am Not Playing Khan..

These Khan puns are just getting out of khantrol.
 
Re: Benedict Cumberbatch To Access Hollywood: "I Am Not Playing Khan..

It doesn't matter what people think of Montalban's performance; the part can and will be recast if it hasn't already been.

The argument is, after all, no more valid than claims that only Leonard Nimoy could play Spock. :cool:


I don't think it's a particularly difficult role to recast, certainly easier than Spock.
 
Re: Benedict Cumberbatch To Access Hollywood: "I Am Not Playing Khan..

Marion Cotillard said she was playing a character named Miranda Tate in The Dark Knight Rises and denied that she was playing someone else. Turns out she played Miranda Tate for most of the movie until they revealed her character's real name. Just because he denies it doesn't make it so. Or it does make it so. Either way it'll be awhile before we know the truth.
 
Re: Benedict Cumberbatch To Access Hollywood: "I Am Not Playing Khan..

The more the producers and actors do these non-denial denials the more I get convinced he is playing Khan. Watching the trailer I got Khan vibes all the way (the augment level abilities, the references to him returning and having Vengeance, etc).

Now all these hints (and Harrison being name of a character from "Space Seed" & the Japanese trailer scene) could be red herrings, or maybe not. And Khan is the only Trek villain that would get the attention of mainstream audiences (other than the Borg).

I was one of those who didn't want Khan in the movie but now I am OK either way. As long as the movie is good it doesn't matter.
