Not to mention he wasn't even the real person and Kirk knew that. It was clearly cathartic for him.

Re: New STAR TREK 3
Well really where are you gonna go with this topic anyway? It's all just rumors at this point. We can all discuss "Who will be the villain in Star Trek 3" , like it really matters, or just continue the back and forth argument that dominates anything to do with new Trek.

From hell's heart I stab at it, for hate's sake... I spit my last breath at it.
Something like that anyways.

From despising the idea of a reboot non-canon Star Trek, to loving the movies as separate entities entirely, ST3 will most likely win in the box offices. The kids loved them. I loved them. My 72 year old mother who has seen every Star Trek episode (TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY) and movie loved them. When she and I walked out of the theater after seeing STID, she said, "I hope they make another one!!" I couldn't agree more.

Star Trek III The Search for Pike.
Seriously gonna miss that guy.
If they really wanted they could continue with the story from Into Darkness. Kahn and his crew remain frozen in the basement at Starfleet, which in all honesty is not a very Starfleet thing to do.

For the next STD, I want to see Jack Black as Harry Mudd, and Shatner's toupee as a tribble!

Re: New STAR TREK 3
I actually think that's one of the selling points to the new films. The characters are more relatable than the holier-than-thou quality that utopian characters can radiate. It's one thing to talk about a utopian society that operates in a particular way. It's quite another to assume that human nature itself has so fundamentally changed that everyone just gets along great and has no conflict. I think the danger in hewing too closely to a utopian vision of humanity itself (as opposed to society or governmental structures as a separate concept) is that it runs the risk of removing drama and/or being unrelatable.
Now, arguably, with STID, they had a GOLDEN opportunity to show contrasts there by creating, in essence, an "external" villain who isn't part of the new evolved society and, instead, presents a different evolutionary path. But the die was already cast with the ST09 film and how it portrays humanity, so that was less likely. Still, I think it makes sense from a storytelling standpoint to deal with flawed characters. What's missing is flawed characters existing in a utopian world, or flawed characters who are desperately struggling against their flaws instead of reveling in them. Petty jealousy makes sense as a dramatic tool in storytelling. Even Picard dealt with that when he went home to visit his brother. But you still got the sense that Picard WANTED to be better than that, rather than "YEAH! SUCK IT RENE!!! I kicked your ASS dude!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! WHO'S THE CAPTAIN?!? ME!!!"

STAR TREK 3 Is Boldly Going With New Writers | Badass Digest
The old writers are also still on-board. And a Star Wars rumor which may not be true, but still an interesting possibility.
