Another Star Trek Movie, Yes or No?

Continuing the Star Trek discussion, we move on to discussing the possibility of another Star Trek movie.

Another Star Trek Movie, Yes or No?

Theresa: I think so. they're great draws and you can tell a lot more, and more coherently than in a mini. There are several dozen books out there that would make good movies.

John: I don't know if the market will be there for another Star Trek movie. The last few movies were boring. What would it take to make an exciting and fresh Star Trek movie? Based on a book? That's a great idea. Can you suggest a title?

Theresa: Kahless was awesome. Stargazer was a two-part book based on Picard's early years. There are more, but I can't think of one right now.

John: I wonder if they shouldn't get a little darker. More tech, more battles, more moral and political morasses that can't be solved in an hour.

Theresa: Trekkies like battle, but only justified unless they're klingon sympathizers. lol

John: Ok, this is silly, but: A Battlestar Galatica tie in? Would that infuriate the fans? Would it be a good idea to tie in the two mythologies?

Theresa: I doubt it would work. The technologies and basic premise of the two are different. Star Wars tie in might work, if it happened before the 23rd century.

John: Didn't you ever have that Star Trek versus Battlestar Galactica argument? Cylons, Klingons, who was worse? As for Star Wars, I don't think the George Lucas would go anywhere near the idea. :->

John: What if the Future Enterprise got lost (they do that all the time) and ended up in the Battlestar Galatica universe? Too much like bad fan fiction?

Theresa: Well, if Kirk and the rest of the original gang can have doubles in an alternate universe, why not? If you made it another dimension, things could tie up very neatly. The champions would have to establish themselves in a Star Trek reality before they could cross over, though, or you'd lose your following.

John: So, you like the idea of another movie? I think they should do a series first, and then consider another movie.

Theresa: I do. I think another movie would be good soon. They could capitalize on the popularity of fantasy and sci-fi right now.
