    Star Trek future movies?

    I think the best cure for any form of "burn-out" would be a piece of high-quality product. Remember that after Star Trek V tanked, everyone thought there was nothing left for the original series crew and that audiences were sick of those characters. ST VI changed a lot of minds. I don't...

    Audience burnout. Brand name destruction. A hiatus gives everyone a chance to breathe, evaluate, reinvent and finally, reintroduce -- sometimes you have to get off the treadmill in order to regroup. There's no guarantee that this will "save Trek", but it will get the bad Trek off the air...

    You may be sick of Star Trek. In which case, you shouldn't watch it. Dude, I haven't watched it since Janeway turned into a mudpuppy in Season Two of Voyager. That was enough for me. I still haven't even bothered to watch Nemesis, and after the several bad reviews, including those for ths...

This is the damage wrought by...

    With the dismal returns of "Star Trek: Nemesis" still lingering and the continued ratings slide of "Enterprise", it looks like the once proud Trek franchise is about to go on hiatus. Trek needs to go away and re-invent itself and then be re-introduced. This is a good thing.

    Star Trek future movies?

    The problem with Star Trek is that mainstream audiences are burned out on the whole ST thing. There needs to be a cooling off period. It is simple supply and demand. Some bad films and some bad TV series have spoiled the demand, and for a long time now, there has been too much supply. Like...

    "What I don’t understand is why didn’t the producers continue to use that formal for success on the follow-up feature films?" Cause there's only so many James Cameron movies they can crib from. :)

    Rick Berman must have naked photos of Paramount Executives engaged in unspeakable acts with farm animals...how he has managed to keep his job as steward over the ST franchise is astonishing. Seriously, all the bad TV shows and bad movies must be coming from the top, not from Berman. He has...
