Khan (and Montalban) sets the standard for ST movie villains, including all the Moby-Dick quotes. And the idea of an outer space battle between two ships that mostly can't see each other is great (Joss Whedon admits he swiped it for the ending space battle of "Serenity").<br /><br />And, yes, the heart. Kirk's growing realization that he needs McCoy and Spock (and his glasses :-) ), and the realization that the way he's lived his life has meant he's missed out on a lot.<br /><br />I always think of this as the beginning of a classic trilogy, where both #3 and #4 come directly out of the movie before, completing an arc of getting the captain and his crew back to where they belong.
