    That's "FINE" Corinthian leather to you Deano. Well he was a good actor, not great but a good character actor. He'll live forever though as Khan and people will be watching that performance for till the end of time or man.

    Sad news. It was nice to see him still working even recently. Imagine my surprise when my kids were watching Spy Kids and there's Kahn playing the family patriarch. Nice.

    Here's a time machine for ya (someone really needs to explain how you cool cats inbed these things)

    Kahn! Kaaahhnn!!!!

    I gotta agree with Worf - good actor, but not a great actor. He was basically the same persona in every role he played but he had such a commanding, badass presence, it didn't matter. John Wayne was one of those such actors.

    And Montalban's Kahn is one of TV/cinema's best villains, ever. The perfect anti-hero to Shatner's over-the-top Kirk.

    Easy...when you're on youtube, Instead of copying the link,go to the grey box next to the box the video plays in...you'll see two small text boxes with URL and "embed".
    Copy the "embed" link and paste it in your post....

    Nice find, speedy. As Frank Booth would say, he was so f*ckin' suave.
