Derfel Cadarn Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I still say they should have done New Frontier for their next movie/TV series. I guess a TV series for that is more likely. Mackenzie Calhoun on either screen would have rocked. That would be good. The books are fun. Vulcan doctor (paraphrased): Captain, I want to mate with you, you know why, yes?" Captain Calhoun: Good taste? Vulcan doctor: ... Pon far. Calhoun: That would have been my second guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potsherds Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I honestly wish they'd give the entire franchise a two decades rest. Let new folks come back with fresh ideas then. They're over-doing it right now, and I don't think that's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're over-doing it right now, and I don't think that's a good thing. I actually agree that I have low expectations of this movie. Until I heard Zachary Quinto was in it, I had no plans to see it- I'm strictly TNG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxom 1974 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Bah. I'm all for all things Trek. Mind you, they'd be better off with me and a couple of my friends running the show, but we'll give JJ a shot... , too bad the trekkies kind of ruin it. Actually it's the "Trekkers" that ruin it. They're the Boston sports fans of the sci-fi set... "Trekkies" are the good guys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Warpechowski Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Btw, is the name Trek from actually, you know, "walking" on the Stars? You know, like trekking? Anyway, I wish they could pull of something like this: I´m pretty sure most of you have seen this already, but those that havent should take a look.

Anyway, I wish they could pull of something like this: IIRC the original Star Trek was pitched as something of a "wagon trek to the stars", hence the name. That trailer is hilarious!

EHK for Darwin Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Star Trek XI The Wrath of Kirk I would honestly pay to see that. Even the geriatric Kirk would make a fine villain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aemon Stark Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 So, where can this trailer be found? Do you actually have to go see Cloverfield? (not that I have any problem with that, I just don't get to the movies very often) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potsherds Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I was wondering, what with the spoilers Wert posted: SPOILER: Trek Is this new alternate 'verse going to also have a mirror universe? I'm quite fond of mirror universe eps, but I'm concerned how they'll deal with mirror 'verses with this new timeline. I'm also curious if creating an alternate 'verse was the intention of Star Trek: Enterprise, which I don't think was ever actually completed... What's with the franchise's sudden obsession with messing with time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's with the franchise's sudden obsession with messing with time? I don't think their plans for Enterprise were anything as complex as that. In fact I am pretty sure all they were looking for was to vary the standard Trek formula ever so slightly in order to be able to sell it as a new series. As to SPOILER: very vague plot spoiler, I guess"Sudden obsession with timetravel"?! Star Trek has more different means of travelling through time than most of their alien civilizations have cultural traits (nevermind languages...).

In fact I am pretty sure all they were looking for was to vary the standard Trek formula ever so slightly in order to be able to sell it as a new series. I agree, I never felt the changes were that different. Even then they usually tried to connect things with the previous shows like with the cosmetic changes for the Klingons. Per time travel, I noticed that the number of those episodes jumped when Braga came on board as a writer then later as a producer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxom 1974 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Something can't be bumped simply for being awesome in and of itself, Wert? In any case...watched a bunch of Enterprise yesterday during a marathon on Sci-Fi. I was wondering if JJ was going to throw any references to Archer and his crew into the movie to tie things in more...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narishma Reborn Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 In any case...watched a bunch of Enterprise yesterday during a marathon on Sci-Fi. I was wondering if JJ was going to throw any references to Archer and his crew into the movie to tie things in more...? There was a brief, Easter Egg-like cameo in Nemesis. In one scene, the crew is discussing a group of ships being assembled to intercept the Romulan Scimitar ship, and one of the ships on the screen is the U.S.S. Archer. Though it is probably likely that some mention will be made here, if anywhere. Before Kirk, I bet Archer and his Enterprise were the first real big-time legendary crew of Starfleet.
