So...are they remaking Star Trek or something? Maybe a Starfleet Academy thing that was tossed around as an idea a while ago.

Because even though that could be lame as hell, it could be cool too.

I don't know how I feel about this. I want another TNG movie. Or (in my dreams) a Voyager movie. Bring Janeway out from behind her silly desk and put her back on the bridge!

But I suppose this is better than nothing.

YES. IAWTC. Or DS9. I <3 that show just as much. Both shows' endings left so much to be desired, and so much unanswered.

I was never really a fan of DS9...I always liked the TNG and VOY episodes that dealt with technology and stuff...crazy powerful ships, spatial anomalies, absurd Borg technology, etc. The "cultural" episodes usually bored me a little...and it seemed like that's all DS9 ever was.

How about a movie starring the EMH???

idk I liked all the episodes one way or another. But the Dominion War arc on DS9 was awesome. It always satisfied my inner Star Wars fan with the gigantic space battles, etc...

I still want a Voyager movie though. That story needs to finished before anything.

EVILLLLLLLLL TNG and voyager and all the other spinoffs are mock turtle!

blasphemy! 40 lashes you knave!


since Ive got quite a few books that deal with pre-star trek trivia, I'd like to see early Kirk and Spock stuff. In fact, Ive got books that deal with Zephram Cochran and the first Vulcan/Human contact. Why not go there??? I hate hate HATE DS9, Voyager and TNG. sorry.

I hope you at least have them a chance before hating them. DS9 is possibly one of the greatest shows ever made, tbh.

Random fact: The Star Trek movie w/the whales was partly filmed in the swimming pool at my high school, where I also had swimming lessons. There was a huge glass pane on a side of the pool and underground tunnel alongside it which made room for the film equipment. State of the art back in the 70s or 80s but by the 2000s everyone was bitching about it being outdated.

And I love William Shatner, don't care what anyone says. Apparently he's a real gentleman and was ALWAYS the favorite celebrity guest at Marine World - only person to brave riding the whale. Unlike Alan Thicke, who had to be repeatedly asked to stop perving on youngish girls.
ahhhhhh, a fellow Shatner Lover. That elevates you to the most discerning viewer award status. Trust me. We'll pass notes and compare autographs. or pics.........either way, the ORIGINAL series was the BEST.

omg nooooooooooo

Kirk and Spock and McCoy are awesome. But the show as a whole could be pretty tacky. That's not a good thing.

DS9 on the other hand was as hard-hitting of a drama as you can get. The characters were awesome, the story arcs were well written, and it was the most action packed series yet. It has a place in my heart forever. But then again, we're from different eras. You grew up with TOS. I grew up with TNG and DS9.
