Some Star Trek rumors -

[Skip Intro]

These are just little blurbs from a site I just stumbled upon. I have no idea how reliable/unreliable this stuff is...

I put this one first, because I like the idea:

snip:

---------------
-- JMS and Star Trek?

It's an idea that is so good, I'm sure it will never happen. Nonetheless, "Babylon 5" creator J Michael Straczynski recently revealed he and Bryce Zabel (Dark Skies) wrote a story treatment for a new Star Trek series which they filed with Paramount. Straczynski's "Babylon 5" was some of the best, most imaginative, and well written science fiction in recent memory, which is a sharp contrast to the declining Star Trek. According Straczynski the treatment "would restore the series in a big way. I actually think it could be a hell of a show. Whether that ever goes anywhere with Paramount, who knows?" Thanks to ScyFy Portal.

-- A New Trek Movie?

In an interview with Dreamwatch magazine, Star Trek boss, Rick Berman, confirmed rumors about the development of a new Star Trek movie prequel. "There is a film concept that is in discussion," Berman said. "I am very much involved in it. It's in the very early stages of development, so it's really too early to talk about." And yet, he somehow he is talking about it. No details have been confirmed, but a Starfleet Academy based film has been rumored.

-- Enterprise Survives, Why?

It looks like UPN's decision to pick up "Enterprise" for another season had less to do with fan campaigns and more to do with money. According to a report from T.V. Guide, "Enterprise" was on its way out after another season of falling ratings until Paramount made an offer that UPN could not refuse. Paramount lowered the price per episode from $1.7 million to $800 thousand. UPN will move "Enterprise" to Friday, where it has had no ratings and nothing to lose, and Paramount will hope to make up the money selling syndication rights, DVD's and action figures. Good luck...

-- Enterprise Season Premiere Details (Spoilers)

Trekweb has gotten some of the details concerning the season 4 premiere of Enterprise. The episode is titled Storm Front and is the first episode of a two parter that has Archer battling the Nazis who have occupied the U.S. in an alternate 1944. Turns out the Nazis had the help of the 'Na'khul'; another silly named alien species that can travel in time. Yawn. Didn't Janeway battle the Nazis? I wonder if we could just fight the Borg; wait did that already too. Someone please find a writer with an imagination.

1. THe rumor I heard is that

if you watch enough episodes of Enterprise, the entire Star Trek franchise will appear in your dreams and beg for a dignified death.

[Skip Intro]

6. I agree w/ you about Enterprise

But I have hope for the francise.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

8. I LIKE Enterprise....

Lots of fun and a boisterous story line. Much as I would imagine Rodenberry would write and produce it.

The finale was great, IMHO.

[TheDebbieDee]

Interesting.

[ogradda]

4. JMS & the Romulan Wars

:wow:

[Minstrel Boy]

5. I used to have very elaborate Star Trek dreams.

The first time I had a Next Generation dream, Kirk fought Picard as if to say, "This...subconscious...ismine!"

Scariest ever was when I dreamt my Mom was Captain. She kept embarrassing me in front of the bridge crew.

9. That wasn't a dream Wesley!

Now come in here and make sure you pick up every single nanite or there'll be hell to pay! I swear... Jean Luc, I can't do anything with him -- you try.

7. Hard to believe, but I heard that Shatner's hair might be a rug!

No way! I mean, c'mon, how could Kirk keep a rug on in zero gravity? Wouldn't it just float up into the grain compartment like a Tribble?

:-)

10. JMS Has worked with Gerrold (Trouble With Tribbles) many times.

I used to correspond with the both of them in the now defunct CS SciFi writers forum in the late 70's and early eighties. JSM would do the franchise proud.

11. I have warmed to Enterprise.

and I'm glad it's moved to Friday.

[PatsFan2004]

12. I too have warmed to Enterprise

I missed the whole Season 3 but I had all of the episodes recorded on my computer as AVIs. At the end of the season, I decided to see if Enterprise had improved. Within a few days, I watched every episode of season three. I got hooked.

13. Enterprise is good action adventure sci-fi show -- BAD Star Trek

but as far as the former goes, it's not bad. Replaced Firefly for me.
