That movie is a fine example of genius filmmaking.
Wrath of Khan was the best.

Which is what makes it genius filmmaking, even more so than "Wrath" is.
Wrath of Kahn will always be my favorite Star Trek movie because it taught me a lesson I've never forgotten and one that I've used throughout my life...especially when playing MMO's. That lesson is: Think in three dimensions. That was how Kirk defeated Kahn and that is how I've defeated many people in the various games I've played.
