Kahn vs. Khan

I see many references to "Genghis Kahn" instead of "Genghis Khan", including in the title of books in the Further Reading section. Are these all typos, or are there multiple acceptable spellings? Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 05:52, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Having received no response, I changed each instance of "Kahn" to "Khan", except for the author of one of the books. GoingBatty (talk) 00:04, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Monggol word "Khan" has a fricative "kh" sound, like the letter "X" in Russian. The proper transliteration then is "Khan". Unless he's Madeleine Kahn's brother or something. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad (talk) 16:24, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also note the proper pronunciation of his title is "Ching-ggiz" or "Tsing-ggiz". Thus "Genghis", while an old spelling, has the h after the second g, not the first. AllGloryToTheHypnotoad (talk) 16:24, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sequel

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0416044/faq#.2.1.5

"Originally that was the plan, but it now seem highly unlikely that there will be even one, let alone two sequels. Mongol was initially conceived as the first part of a trilogy which would cover Temudgin's entire life. However, after the difficulties experienced during the making of Mongol, writer/director Sergei Bodrov decided to abandon the trilogy and leave Mongol as a stand alone film. However, whilst doing promotional work for the film, Bodrov began to contemplate the possibility of doing not two sequels, but just one, combining his ideas for parts 2 and 3 into one film. As of April 2010, Bodrov was working on part 2, tentatively titled The Great Khan, which was expected to start filming later in 2010 with a budget of around $45 million. As of 26 December 2010, however, all production on The Great Khan had ceased, and as of July 2012, there are no plans to resurrect the project."

I don't know what the [i]original[/i] source of this information is but it seems the sequel section might need updating to show that a second film probably won't be made/released. Maybe?
