Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted October 28, 2003 Sorry to say it but imo, all other Trek series really have nothing more to offer in ways of moving the big picture forward, nothing more seems to be "at stake" except the outcome of the TCW. "What happens to so and so" is not good reason to make a film and that is really all that's left with most of those latter series characters. Any stories left to tell with previous Trek series are better left to be told in novels. Besides, too many veteran Trek actors have become too bloated and full of themselves to continue to work for the good of the series. I want the next two or three films to be about ENT. Plots? Too many to choose from! What do you mean nothing to offer? All they need to be is an entertaining movie. I think both DS9 and VOY could crank out awesome movies! "What happens to so and so", I disagree that this is all that's left to continue for DS9 and VOY. DS9's series finale cliffhanger could easilly be made into a movie, as for VOY's finale, they could have the crew decide to stick together, give Janeway a ship like (Admiral Ross had a ship in DS9) and send them off on a few final adventures. I disagree as I don't read novels. Since DS9 was so serialized, I think the best way to continue it would be with a big epic mini-series like "Taken" on SCI-FI. Never saw it, but heard that it rocked. As for VOY, I think this would be the better choice for the next movie. I sure hope we get a VOY movie instead of a mixed cast! I'd like to see ENT movies too, but I'd rather have 2-3 VOY movies first. How about this? Voyager movie 1: Reprecussions in the Alpha Quadrant Voyager movie 2: Species 8472 invades Voyager movie 3: Borg evolve & return Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An actual trilogy of Star Trek movies, like the Star Wars movies. That would be great. It'd probably confuse the heck out of the non-trekkers, but it would probably bring them into it.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted October 31, 2003 Yeah. Becuase Voyager is back in the Alpha Quadrant and becuase of it's mediacore ratings, I think it's best bet is for a 2-part movie or a trilogy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted October 31, 2003 We've had a movie trilogy before: The Wrath of Kahn The Search for Spock The Voyage Home Do you think, with all these trilogies coming out, that it's time for Trek to do a 2nd trilogy? I think DS9 or VOY would be perfect for a trilogy. I think if either show makes it to the movies, that that would be the best way to go. DS9's 6th and 7th seasons were arc based, so why not a trilogy to resolve what the finale didn't? As for VOY, you can't do too much without going back to the DQ or becoming TNG-II, so perhaps VOY's best bet is a trilogy with Species 8472 and the Borg?

BigRedManiac 0 Posted October 31, 2003 We could have another TNG film that brings back Data,and then a third where Data and Lore square off in the ultimate sibling showdown.A Data trilogy (including Nemesis). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted October 31, 2003 Oh gosh, no! I enjoy the Data character, and I didn't mind him sharring the big screen with Captain Picard, but I'd rather not see him star in an additional 2 movies. Besides, Data's dead and Lore's dissmantaled. How would Data come back to life, and how would Lore end up being re-assambled? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think I'd care for a Data trilogy,either.Its just the only one I could think of using an existing film storyline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Ericks 0 Posted November 1, 2003 Gee Captain, where'd ya' get the idea for a trilogy. Oh, well. I think it would be good but the problem is which series would the trilogy follow. I've pretty much given up any real hope of TNG getting another movie. DS9 would be great as a movie, with the cliff hanger ending, but it probably wouldn't last for much more than just one movie. And even if species 8472 could be incorperated, in an interesting way, I would still have my doubts about the fan loyalty to the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Ericks 0 Posted November 1, 2003 I posted an idea about a Star Trek trilogy(see here), then a not much longer (after you replied to my post) you create an entirly new thread on the tpoic.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted November 1, 2003 Relax. When I was thinking of doing a trilogy, it was partly your idea, partly becuase of Star Wars, and partly becuase I want a VOY trilogy. :lol: Why does it matter who's idea it is? Just as long as Paramount gives us a 2nd Trek trilogy, I'll be thrilled! If they do a trilogy, does this mean we won't have to wait 2-4 years between the 2nd and 3rd parts of the trilogy? :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
