Opening To Star Trek 2 The Wrath Of Khan 1982 VHS

[darfnader]

Oh, man. I can still hear the wavering distortion of those super high opening tones in my dreams.

[garrisonskunk]

I have a recording of this that my brother made from the first time it was on HBO in '83. The opening credit says just "Star Trek - The Wrath of Khan" as opposed to "Star Trek II - The Wrath of Khan".

@garrisonskunk would love to see that intro uploaded to youtube!

@timetravelhyman88 NO!

Nicholas Meyers actually wrote the screenplay (as well as directed), but because of a Writer's Guild technicality didn't get the credit for it.

What I would give for my original VHS copy of this. Thanks for posting.

[iamthesun62]

Thanks for the"original" theme song...couldn't stand the other posting that were clearly TOO FAST!

Holy lost childhood batman!

THIS is how I know my Star Trek to be. Who cares about super high-def blue superwhamadyne amzingness. I want my VHS grain and tiny audio. That was part of the experience!

@doserdog

Are you joking with that comment? What is so great about watching Star Trek on low quality VHS? Blu-ray high def is the way to go. Thanks to blu-ray and 1080p, Star Trek can be watched the way it was meant to be seen and recreate the cinematic experience. There's no way you can get that experience on VHS regardless if it was part of your childhood.

[doserdog]

@ooOmegaSupremeoo Because that's how it was released? I think you failed to understand the point of my comment.

Shitty VHS quality is what I grew up with, and that is what I miss.

[motherfan55]

@ooOmegaSupremeoo I suppose after watching this you went to look for one in your precious "HD". Who needs it?

[SegaFanatic5188]

@ooOmegaSupremeoo Unfortunately the Star Trek Blu-Rays are pretty badly mastered. They have tons of DNR and EE done to them so they almost look cartoony. So much detail is obliterated on those releases. It's why I've stuck with my DVD releases. That and the lack of Directors Cuts.

I have the warning screen on here on some of my John Wayne tapes such as El Dorado, True Grit, and Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (BW varient)

[heerogunkenobi]

in my opinion best opening credits to a star trek film ever compare to ST TMP the opening credits was just a black screen way to simplistic in my mind this opening credits to me with the starry galaxy really set the exiating tone of the whole movie the whole to boldly go where no one has gone before kind of way

[AnthonyA5555]

What's up with the sound before the Warning Screen?

[dude75able]

Star Trek: TOS: EXCELLENT

Star Trek: TNG: EXCELLENT

DS9: ok

Voyager: AWFUL

Star Trek: Enterprise: EXCELLENT

where the 1982 paramount home video logo on it

[ClassicTVMan1981X]

@timetravelhyman88

Most Paramount Video releases went straight from the warning screen to the opening logo of the films. The 1979 and 1982 Paramount Home Video logos only appeared on VHS releases of films not made but distributed by Paramount, and Paramount's TV shows ("The Brady Bunch," "Happy Days," "Laverne & Shirley").

my vhs copy of star trek ii the wrath of khan has the 1989 paramount home video logo on it

[AnukTheMaster1000]

does a dvd recorder work with paramount tapes??

[ThePreviewsGuyReturn]

@AnukTheMaster1000 We'll Yea! On Some Of It!

[1happycats]

@ThePreviewsGuyReturn Instead of putting capital letters on the first letter of every word you speak use lowercase letters (except for the start of a sentence) or something like that.

I Have This Tape But It's 1987
