Yea, especially the new Khan.
He was terrible, amirite?
Everything pre Abrams was awful. Everything post Abrams was amazing. There's a reason the Star Wars universe fears Abrams Khan.

Lol Sherlock Khan is a joke to Star Wars. Darth Vader and the Emperor are the real villains of sci-fi mythology.
The original Khan however is at least memorable. Sherlock Khan couldn't even get the accent right. Lame.

False. This Khan took on the Federation whereas Emperor hid behind an army and Vader would force choke people behind a screen. No comparison to Khan.

I thought Sherlock Khan was awesome. This is no bias considering I've never seen Sherlock.
Vader and the emperor are cultural icons. No comparison here

Someone didn't pay attention during ST:ID. Khan's plan was to run away with his crew from the Federation, not engage in a single-ship war with them.

He is intelligent he isn't going to take them all on by himself. He leveled the Federation and survived the film.
His crew is still alive as well. Emperor died despite having a galactic army at his disposal.

Are you really going to compare Palpatine setting himself up as head of a galactic empire to Khan's crashing of a ship? Of course you are, cos you're a rediculous person.

Palpatine was lucky. Mace had crushed him. Anakin showed up and saved his life. Then in a calculated move to win over Luke he is killed by Vader making himself vulnerable.
He was cowardly and hid behind others. Khan defected and attacked by himself. Simply courageous.

Yeah the new Khan was the single worst part of the entire new Star Trek. Absolutely everything else in the films were perfect, it was just Khan that brought the whole thing down. What an immensely awful character.
IF Kirk would had been killed the film would had been perfect.

Has Disney imposed some 'must hire old fat out of shape actors' quota?

Fillion is only 43, and with a trainer can get back into shape pretty quick. It's people like you who screw up the casting process. Acting ability takes precedence over appearance. I would much rather have Fillion in star wars than your personal man crush. I bet you want Channing Tatum in star wars don't you

To be fair, I did not know Fillion was only 43, he looks closer to 53, but years of drinking and a bad diet will do that.
We're already going to have an old fat Jedi with Luke returning, do we really need a looks old fat Sith? Think about it.

Judging off of firefly, Fillion can definitely play Han solo esque badass. With movie magic and a good trainer the appearance shouldn't detract.

I'm just busting your balls cos I know you man-crush the guy. He's a decent actor and I'd be happy if he was cast. Not a smuggler though, that would be silly for obvious reasons.

Definitely an April Fools joke. A quick search shows that it's the only site running the story.

No homo, but Nathan Fillion is definitely on my list. The girlfriend's fine with it
