Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations

i read in the sunday paper this morning of patrick stewart suppposedly getting £7 million to appear as captain picard in a new star trek film due out in 2007. couldn't find much info on the net since it isnt even in pre production yet but i found this...

star trek film (http://www.darkhorizons.com/news05/050310b.php)


seems a few people are keen on the idea of a prequel. hmm. i'd like to see a beginning of the federation and starfleet taking off from first contact so its vulcans galore lol what does everyone else want to see in a new star trek film?

frodo, that site said no characters from the star trek universe would be appearing, so how does picard fit in?

i don't know do i! i'm telling u what i read in the paper, it was a tiny article saying he's getting £7mil to play picard again so whether that was true or not as i can't find anything to back it up on the net only that link i gave u

well if its enterprise itl be crap.  a voyager would be better.  or DS9.  but please no more with the borg attack earth scenario

aye the borg is boring now. something that isn't focused on 1 starship and its crew would be good

what i want is a prequel about the rommie war a movie like that would be sick

something 3h long  

i agree 3hour films are better

totally

dude

Mabey something that follows the path of 5 or six captians that are friends though the romulian wars.

i heard 3 mill, but i guess thats beside the point. Point is he is gonna be in it so i guess it will be, TNG - Nemesis Era

i'd prefer it if it was in that era than a prequel set years before everthing else, in that article in that link above there's something about not relying on special effects. what rubbish! the SFX is a big part of star trek in my opinion and with the SFX tech in movies it wud be awesome, all they need is a **** good story and 3 hours of film!

wasn't the romulan war fought with primitive robot ships, and nuclear weapons. how would there even be a crew?

you sound like george lucas, that is dangerous for your health and you should consider immediate counselling :)

georgy also thoughbt special effects was everything, and he started using it more... moooore... mooooreeeee...... until finally, his last movie was entirely SFX, without a shred of decent dialog.


star trek writers after the end of TNG series have been, lets face it, crap. they have to stop relying on treknobabble and light effects to sell a show. i therefore put out the motion that this film indeed should not have any SFX, that way the movie will be forced to have a good story in order to make a profit.

lol u rise a good point there, am i the only person who found dorsal shields funny in nemesis :lol:

well, they can make a good story and the producers can go behind every ones back, and add SFX to the movie.

but, i would enjoy a good script, and special effects; the two aren't mutually exclusive you know

i agree, but good (and original) scripts from star trek have been far and few...

i'd have to agree there

I would like one of thoses movies that jumps all over, and you get glimpses of 6 story lines or so, and it all makes sense when all the story lines come togeather in the end
