    They could simply be playing possum, hoping that by saying they won't be involved, Paramount will start activity again -- and then when Paramount does, they'll start waving their contracts around and demand either a huge payoff, or control. Sorry to be so cynical, but I don't trust 'em.

    I love the new Galactica show, recognizing that it portrays a bleak situation with perhaps the most dysfunctional characters and relationships ever. The good thing about the new Galactica (besides that it is entertaining once you accept that it is the Dysfunctional Galactica) is that it will one...

    It seemed to me that both the ability of Data to "turn off" the emotion chip (a new ability introduced in that wonderful moment in First Contact), and the rebirth of Data in B4 were both ways of correcting the problem with Data's character - namely that he'd already acheived his goal of becoming...

    If Star Trek's last film had been given the kind of budget that regular movies are given, they could have made Data's replacement as a CGI character. That way they'd never have to worry about the actors aging. Spiner could have voiced him a la Anthony Daniels for as long as he lived. But...

    I heard it was originally going to be Shatner doing that, but he threw his hip out doing the swishy swish during the rehearsal.

    Frankly it sounds like the reason why some people suggest a hiatus is because they don't see any other way to get rid of B&B. But just get rid of B&B and then there is no need for a hiatus. There's also no reason to believe that having no one work on trek for ten years will mean that in ten...

    Why the focus on movies anyway? They could have some tv mini series come up now and then. Release them theatrically overseas but air them as minis. Just a possibility.

    They did that for that spin off show, Deep Suck 9", so it is not like this is that much of a departure for them.

    Come on. They're a race of cyborgs. Chances are they've got the Borg Queen uploaded to an FTP site somewhere and they can download her consciousness to whatever location they want. Maybe even customize a body for her to match her favored appearance (indeed, perhaps that's why she was just a head...

    The Romulans COULD be an interesting race to make a film about - they've got heightened emotions (like Vulcans with out the meditative practices to keep their emotions in check), and sadomasochistic tendencies to vent their emotional peaks, and are probably as paranoid as TPol says Vulcans once...

    I recently skimmed a book called "Electronic Eros" which was written long before First Contact was a gleam in the film franchise's eye. Before there was any "Borg Queen." The writer, Claudia Spriner of the Film Studies department at RI College, noted that the Borg's regeneration chambers inside...

    I'd like to see an animated Next Gen series, in the style of the Roughnecks Troopers animation. Perhaps we've even reached a point in technology where we can have other actors speak the lines, but have their voices transformed into the voices of the original Next Gen actors. With royalties of...
