    I laughed so hard at that Spanish/Indian comment. Reminded me of how they used to have Italians play the role of Indians (or Native Americans) in the old "spaghetti westerns". I agree that Kahn (especially 1982 version) was Ricardo's masterpiece. I also respect the fact that he busted his butt getting himself back in shape for the role. So much so, that they had to start showing his character on "Fantasy Island" at the gym a lot in order to explain why he was suddenly getting so buff. I don't really think it was his accent that made the character. I think it was the arrogance and the lust for revenge that drove him to insanity. Ricardo nailed that so well that Hollywood should've started casting him as villains a lot more. You know what's funny, though? Two of Kirk's biggest enemies were Mr. Rourke from Fantasy Island and Jim Ignitowski from Taxi. Admittedly, though, both actors nailed the roles. Still, I would've paid so much money to see Christopher Lloyd dressed as a Klingon, make up and all, acting like Jim Ignitowski.

    I just noticed that John Hancock, Vice Admiral Haden from TNG, is also missing.

    still the other guy,what was his name, the jj khan, shows what i know, can't even remember the guys name, oh well, Ricardo was a superior actor in the role of khan , both in 1966 and in the movie version in 1982 , altho in 1982 he did play the role as someone at the edge of sanity and driven by revenge, and i liked the moby d.ick reference.............

    You would think Khan would have been smart enough with that intellect to see he was going to end up like Ahab

    His intellect lost out to his ego and insanity.

    Khan Noonian Singh was supposed to to be from india , i wouldve rather seen JJ get an actual indian star from maybe bollywood to do the part, atually make it more authentic to the nationality of khan.
