Paramount has reportedly shelved a proposed Star Trek prequel film under development by producer Rick Berman, as he told SCI FI Wire last July. The Trek Today Web site and others are reporting that Paramount wanted the idea for the film to be "reworked" as they were "not happy with the direction that the story was headed."
Berman told SCI FI Wire last summer that he was in the early stages of development on a Trek feature film that "would have nothing to do with any of the characters that have ever existed on any of the Star Trek series. It would be an entirely new setting and an entirely new set of characters, and it would take place prior to any of the series, including Enterprise."
Uh oh. Anyone else have any ideas what Paramount should do for another Star Trek film?

1. That's too bad. I'm not very interested in Star Trek, but I'd pay |

to see one that went off in a totally different direction.

...to step away from the same ol' same ol'. Give us a real script that didn't have to be tweaked to fit well-known characters, and give us a director and actors who care, and I'd like to see it.
I, ROBOT had almost nothing to do with Asimov's story (and sprung from a different script before the rights fell into the producers' laps). Bad example, maybe, but I would probably enjoy a good sci-fi yarn set to Trek music, so to speak.

3. A prequel to the prequel known as Crapperprise... whew boy. Paramount |
|
did the RIGHT THING.
Just how back can they go in their neverendingquest to screw up a history that TNG strived to create?
Let Trek die. Please. Bring it back in 20 years.
