I guess there are some rumors out there that Paramount wants to do a prequel movie for Star Trek. Apparently after Archer and the ENTERPRISE tv show debacle but before KIRK.
I don't know I just think that has run its course for Star Trek and the past didn't work too kindly on them.
I think maybe if they wanted to go in a different direction they could try going a generation or more into the future beyond PICARD. That way they could get beyond the current storylines but still tread back on those stories to some degree.
And they could still utilize Q and the DOCTOR from VOYAGER. Even ODO could be brought back since changlings have an indefinite life span. Also they could cheat and say B4 fully integrated DATA's memory quickly and joined Starfleet to follow in his brothers footsteps.
Or maybe they could do a an ALL KLINGON series?????? Hmm... that might be pushing it..![]()

if you recall - data was back on earth in this century - they found his head in a cave or something ...
but star trek has run its course i suspect unless some really good writing comes up .."Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems." - Rene Descartes (1596-1650) -

There've been rumors of a prequel movie for ages. It's not gonna happen any time soon.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I actually liked the last two seasons of Enterprise, aside from the continuity issues. It was better than most of Voyager. Unfortunately it had already lost its audience by then. -
I think they should do a Star Trek meets Star Wars meets Matrix meets Die Hard meets Freddie Kruger meets Jaws meets Rocky meets Harry Potter meets LOTR type movie :P
it would be one helluva cash cow I'm not sure what it could be about though
any suggestions? -
Hmm... copyrights would be to expensive to make it profitable. Make it Star Wars/Star Trek/Matrix and it would be cheaper

I would rather see an E.T/Terminator movie.

It's all about Gary Coleman versus Emmanuel Lewis.
That's right Webster Vs Arnold.
WhachutalkinboutWillis?
It would be a buddy cop movie where they are partners, but then the twist is that one orf them is a crooked cop and they have to fight it out.
And they find large Voltron-like robots to fight in.snappy phrase
I don't know what you're talking about. -
The prequel movie I heard talked about (years ago) was one involving Kirk (et al) during his academy and post-academy days. If memory serves, he was supposed to be one of the youngest persons ever to become a captain in Star Fleet and got his early captaincy by "deeds" that were never really discussed during the series. There would be a lot of adventurous possibilities there. But, I think the series/movie possibilities are a pretty low priority now.
The one sequel I think would be a blockbuster if it came out would be a sequel of the 1982 film, "E.T." ... starring Drew Barrymore as a grown-up single mom (like her ET mom was) dealing with E.T.'s "return" to Earth for a visit. I'd bet that Barrymore would be up for such a role. Dee Wallace Stone, who played Drew's mom, is still alive and kicking, too. I imagine any person alive when E.T. came out would be an instant audience ... along with their own kids ... and it would also kickstart further sales of the original movie on DVD.
Somebody should whop Spielberg up the side of the head and suggest it, hehe. -
i really really hated ET -- only movie i walked out of

Steven Spielberg and Melissa Mathison came up with the concept of a sequel called Nocturnal Fears, where Elliott and his friends are kidnapped by aliens, and E.T. would help them out. E.T.'s name would be Zreck, and his species was at war with the other aliens.

Have a sequel called: "E.T. Twenty-Five Years Later". Synopsis: The friendly E.T. was all a ruse just to draw in humans so he could study them better. 25 years later, he's back, and his home planet is out of natural resources... and Will Smith could fly a jet and Jeff Goldblum could upload a virus, and Adam Baldwin could be the head of Area 51. We need a comic relief though... how about... Randy Quaid!!!! Yeah... he's funny.
Oh wait, that's been done.
