8. Khaaaaaaaaan's Plan?
Alright, I got that spoiler out of the way for you. So "John Harrison" is in fact 1990's eugenics superman (remember those 1990's supermen?) Khan brought out of deep cryo-sleep to help design and build weapons for Admiral Robocop's future war with the Klingons. He wasn't alone, 72 of his genetically modified people are stuck still on-ice. As a bargaining chip the Admiral holds these people hostage in return for Khan's continued mental expertise. In an effort to undermine this, Khan hides his crew in the very weapons he was building and the Admiral found out about it. My first question, if he could get to them why didn't he just take them out of cryo-sleep and unleash hell on Earth? Perhaps he didn't the proper protocols or whatever at the time, okay... so what exactly was his plan in the first place? Beam to Kronos after committing a terrorist attack, knowing that Admiral Robocop will use any and all means to kill him, and hope beyond hope that the Captain sent to kill him will NOT use the torpedoes that are holding his crew to try and blow him away? For a man of such mental capacity, he sures rolls the dice on this one...
7. Letting Khan Walk Freely
So the way Khan initiates his vengeance on those who wronged him and his people is to coerce a high-level top secret agent to blow himself and an important facility sky-high. Why is Khan allowed to walk around willy-nilly on London's streets conversing with top-level officials who are not Admiral Robocop, without so much as a security team following him daily? Hell, If I were the Admiral I would just 'kindly' request that Khan be in solitary confinement, Kirk was even better at doing this on the Enterprise, while he is not at work perfecting my advanced weapons technology. You're holding 72 bargaining chips after all.
