  • Giddygoon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0That would be pretty cool if it happens.
  • TigerClaw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0a movie set in the mirror universe would be interesting.
  • joemc72, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Are Berman and Braga involved? If so, suckage will ensue...
  • DewayneSmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I love Star Trek...only problem. Will it use the NCC-1701-A?
  • g30ph, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Yeah right. Yesterday this was a rumor. Today all of a sudden it's a fact. Well I hope they get Peter Jackson to do it. And please leave out Bakula. He should have killed himself after Quantum Leap went off. I'd prefer to see more of the DS9 cast.
  • cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They should go back to the Genesis Project planet and bring McCoy and Scotty back to life.
  • cacophony, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4How about a factual writeup? The mirror universe was featured on the original series, DS9, and Enterprise. Never TNG.
  • leftfoot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What about voyager and DS9? Those kicked ass, leave Enterprise out, Rick Berman ***** the timeline up on that one =(.
  • vodkamattvt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1My prediction is the movie will suck .. bad. No matter what they base it on. Star Trek is dead.
  • CoyotesFan84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Have you heard of Star Trek: Generations, cacophony?
  • claco, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Dear god no. Make them stop. Hell, how about a 5th remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers? A third War of the Worlds would be nice too.

    And they wonder why movie sales suck. It's not pricary, it's the lack of good movies.
  • Wardvark, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Skip this idea, make a Voyager movie, that series rocked.
  • duke_nate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2What the hell, where are the DS9 guys?? They spent the most time in the alternate universe. Its time for DS9 to get its first movie.
  • xLiKx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3great, more bad star trek movies. i hope they get a good director this time
  • Saint3k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Voyager was the BANE of Star Trek, and helped perpetrate it's downfall. Wardvark, you should be ashamed of yourself.
  • Abyss_908, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Actually ka-el, you're wrong the dark mirror universe only appeared in Deep Space Nine, Enterprise, and the Original Series. Bakula sucks he is one of the reasons Enterprise failed. The show was centered around him. Stewart and Shatner will be great in this movie. 2 of the best captains of the universe. But since the universe actually appeared on on DS9 episodes it would be interesting to see more of those mirror characters that have never been visited in the last days of the series since they were very busy with the domininion war. I mean there's Smiley O'Brien, the mirror Bashier, and many others. But of course some of the main ones were killed off in the mirror universe like the Sisko and Quark. I wonder if they will try to connect it with the normal reality like have Picard travel to the mirror universe and meet the mirror Picard or something. Too bad Leonard Nemoy won't be in it. With the mirror universe they could have a mirror Data that isn't dead. Glad they scrapped the prequel idea! Gonna be sweet!
  • kimos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Remember when Star Trek movies used to be good?
    Seeing Nemesis was one of the single most disapponiting things I have ever looked forward to...
  • GhengisKhan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4William will save the studio a ton of money on their travel expenses.
  • Jammerdelray, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Nemesis dissapointing?!? Nemesis was a awesome movie....you must be deaf and blind when you were watching it lol
  • g30ph, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3How could you say Star Trek is dead? Star Trek is it's own universe. Just because Paramount decided to let the same guys keep failing for 10 years doesn't change the fact that Star Trek has unending potential. You might aswell say King Kong is dead because the last remake sucked. Then Peter Jackson comes along. Alternately you may say Star Wars is the greatest, then some schmuck makes 3 prequels.
  • jpmullet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1kimos, no i dont...
    There's a reason that only trekies watch these movies...
  • MicahC, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3There's too much time travel in Star Trek. Have three captains in one movie is a gimmick. The problem is gimmicks tend to fail because of plot holes (example: Generations). If they would just focus on one crew and one great story, the movie would be awesome in the box office (example: Undiscovered Country).
  • Pogue_Mahone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I'm looking forward to it.

    I'd like to see DS9 characters in it, but not at the expense of Enterprise. I liked that show.
  • cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Only ever other Star Trek movie used to be good--even ones mostly, but I think Nemesis was an even numbered one and that sucked worse than 5. Only 2, 4, and 8 are worth the time, with 2 being the high point of Star Trek movies period. I'm not a Trekkie, but even I have to admit that DS9 had some amazing episodes a little more than halfway through its run.
  • magstheaxe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2DS9 was the best of the Next Generation era TV series, and Sisko the coolest captain. I can't believe they'd overlook Avery Brooks in favor of Scott Bakula, given that 'Enterprise' both sucked AND blew.
  • cmstar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2coyotesfan84 (0)

    Star Trek: Generations did NOT feature the Mirror universe. Instead It was an alternate reality created by the Nexus.

    Also, why does everyone hate on Star Trek Nemesis. I thought it was rather good. It was far better than Star Trek Insurrection.

    And it wasn't Bakula that made Enterprise suck, it was the writing. The sad thing is that the stories were getting pretty good towards the end of the series, but it was too far down the spiral by then.

  • Jorenko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hopefully this will be the movie that Nemesis was supposed to be. It was originally a mirror universe Enterprise-E vs Enterprise-E story, which was twisted into the steaming pile of plot-device crap we got.

    I will agree that DS9 was my favourite Trek, and they definately had the best mirror universe episodes. And to cambrown99, you left out 6. Undiscovered Country kicked ass!

      It circles Uranus looking for klingons.
  • BlueStarr, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Oh My Friggin' God! Enough with ***** ST already. This series sucks balls. The only version I liked was with Pecard.

    Kill this ***** franchise.
  • Stormwysper, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0The phrase "beating a dead horse" comes to mind everytime I hear about a new Star Trek movie.
    • 300113, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Obviously you must be one of those Battlestar Galactica morons. The only adventure there is wheither you are going to be awake at the end of he show......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • ozjmu, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I love Star Trek, but please LET IT REST for a least another five years, if not a decade.
    • 300113, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0TV sucks to loud to let it rest......somebody has to do SOMETHING!!!!
  • coolgeek61813, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0there is an undigg button and i love star trek but people need to miss star trek and its goodness
  • thecip, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0April Fools, right? Please God April Fools!!!
  • drpsycho, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Unless it features a cameo by Leonard Nimoy wearing a bad-ass goatee (standard mirror universe issue), I'm not interested.
  • Reliant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I've never heard of CanMag magazine. As far as I'm concerned, unless I hear it on startrek.com it is just a rumour.
  • Veloxi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I kinda wish they'd just let the franchise die instead of keeping it a vegetable on life support like it is now.

    I feel that DS9 is the best of all the Treks. The writing was tighter and the stories more compelling than any of the other versions of the "Trek Universe."

    That's not to say that I didn't like the other Treks. I did. I just liked DS9 the best.

  • dupswapdrop, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0anyone have a copy of the song startreking across the universe?
  • TimmyK., on 10/12/2007, -0/+1For some reason I have a hard time believing that this is either true, or would ever stand a chance of being anything but crap. I loved TNG and DS9, but Voyager was horrid almost from the very beginning, and completely ruined the Borg. Enterprise didn't keep my interest past the first episode, even though I like Bakula (huge Quantum Leap fan). Personally other than giving the first episode of Enterprise a chance I haven't paid attention to Star Trek since the fifth season of Voyager or so. What was the point when there was Babylon 5, and Farscape. And now we have the amazing Battlestar Galactica stomping all over any other sci-fi series out there. Star Trek needs a very long rest, and it should only come back when there actually is a good reason, and preferably with another TNG style jump into a new era with new characters and situations (a forward jump that is).
