The cast is getting old. How long can you expect all the same crew to be present on the same ship. The only remaining crew left on Enterprise are Picard, Crusher and LaForge.

I'm thinking the movie needs to be after Nemisis, with a new crew on a new ship.

yup, if the movie is successful, then they can use the new crew to create a new TV series...instead of trying to milk a dead cow 😀

P.S. Any Paramount people who may see this, contact me, I have 10 plus years of Star Trek stories and ideas that a colleague and I have created that everyone that hears about it and reads it says it's better than most Trek they've watched.

Here is a bit of a review of the final season with Manny Coto at the helm . http://www.scifidimensions.com/Jun05/enterprisefinale.htm

I agree, I didn't even bother watching the show till the final season when someone told me to watch it and I loved it.

I couldn't even make it through the first season, it was so terrible. DS9's first season wasn't even that bad - although DS9 turned into a decent show in season 2. If Enterprise had turned around by Season 2, it'd still be on.

Nope, Enterprise was already the best show that UPN had on, had excellent demographics and yet it was still killed. Why? Les Moonves didn't like Trek at all and wanted it dead. He got his wish, even though UPN lost money on this decision -- that's right, lost money, since Enterprise's demographics raked in a lot of advertising bucks. Now they have only cr@p showing that no advertiser wants to pay anything for.

Yea, Enterprise was the only reason I was watching that channel. Although... didn't they start playing Farscape reruns very late at night?

That's rediculous reasoning. They made movies w/ the original cast for like 20 years.

 

[kosstamogen]

I'm sure they could think up a reason to bring Capt. Sisko out from the wormhole, all they need is another universe destroying enemy like V'ger. C'sini, P'neer, P'finder, H'bble take your pick!

The final season was crazy good though.

Umm, maybe that is because you are crazy? The last season was slow and full of 3 part episodes that went absolutely nowhere. THe last 3 episodes were good though.

I agree. And when they do, they should start at a point after where they left off.

Or maybe a re-release of the series with updated effects sequences. The series finale was especially disappointing - they used all kinds of stock footage for that, even though they were starting to use CGI effects in previous episodes.
I mean come on, it's the grand battle sequence finale for the series. Stock footage doesn't belong there.

I wouldn't mind an Enterprise movie, especially if, like someone said here, it would have shown some of the formation and growth of the Federation. And if they want credibility, stop with the idiocy of T'pol's "exploration" of human sexuality. That was just blatant ratings grabbing, that started with Seven of Nine in Voyager.

LOL! 😀

 

[KarmaPolice]

this makes me sad. Picard is such a great captain. TNG was such a good show. Seriously..spike TV is trying to make me waste my dad. They play like 3 of them in a row in the middle of the afternoon. How can I say no? I literally sit down turn on the tv..turn to spike...and say "F*&K now i have to watch it" cause i litterally cant turn it off. such great chemistry...

Man I remember watching Generations in the theater and everyone cheering when Kirk finally died. Possibly the finest moment in ST history.

 

[Cattlegod]

10 bucks they use the cast from Enterprise 🙂

Wow, I think this movie is already a failure and the blasted thing hasn't even been flimed yet.

Nah Nemesis was good.

 

[conehead433]

Nemesis ranks as the worst ST movie made. No wonder Patrick Stewart decided to call it quits.

You didn't see ST V, did you. It sweeped worst movie, worst director, and worst actor in 1989. That's not easy to do!
