Title: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Shockeye on July 23, 2005, 01:46:22 PM Quote from: TrekWeb STAR TREK XI to be Filmed in Australia, Set in 2010 ? (http://trekweb.com/articles/2005/07/22/42e1880605171.shtml) Several rumors about the STAR TREK XI prequel movie have appeared today on the net, rumors that TrekWeb has been unable to officially confirm or deny. According to the latest issue of STAR TREK Magazine, just out in the UK, Paramount bosses have hinted that the prequel may be filmed in Australia, according to a claim made by the Premier of South Australia, Mike Rann, when he opened the Australian Star Trek convention, Terra Nova, back in April . "Mr Rann had been with Paramount Pictures executives at a dinner in Adelaide the day before our convention," Stuart Blair, President of the United Federation of Planets Fan Club of South Australia told Star Trek Magazine. Although that meeting was primarily about Paramount's upcoming film of Edgar Rice Burroughs' PRINCESS OF MARS, Paramount execs apparently also revealed they were also considering shooting the next STAR TREK film in Australia. STAR TREK Magazine reader Carol Dale, who was at the event says the Premier also revealed some of the next film's plot. "STAR TREK XI will be set in the very near future," Carol reports. "2010 to be exact. A time when the Earth has been almost destroyed by nuclear war, when our saviours from the future arrive." "The story is to be set over two movies," Carol continued. "As to who will star nothing was said, but it was inferred that Spock was a must. But if they are bringing help from the future it leaves it open to star any and all of the STAR TREK casts from all the shows." To read the full article, get the latest issue of STAR TREK Magazine at your local newstand. This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor. :mob: :dead_horse: :cthulu: :sad_panda: Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Horse Emoticon Here> Post by: Evangolis on July 23, 2005, 02:21:21 PM Can we have Nazi Space Vampires, too?

I hate the world, it's people, and the lack of darwinism in modern civilization. Many, many, many people need to have their flesh ripped off and jackets made out of them. In the case of Knowles, 73 jackets.

That deflates that momentary bit of excitement. The director is the guy who did "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" which I liked for all it's quirks. John Carter of Mars stories could be decently told in that style. I'm not completely depressed but I am sure Harry Knowles will find some way to fuck it up.

BTW, this series is public domain and I found the whole thing, in eBook form, on some University web site. Just google for it.

Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Bunk on July 25, 2005, 07:37:32 AM Yea, I have to say I stopped paying attention to the trek stuff in your article once you mentioned Princess of Mars. Hell, I still have a comic adaption of "John Carter, Warlord of Mars" from the late seventies burried somewhere.

A time when the Earth has been almost destroyed by nuclear war, when our saviours from the future arrive." Wow. Just wow. Ok. So, if we are going to be five years from now, can I ask why not put the film in 2001 or 2006 or who-the-fuck-cares-when and shoot it with trekkies? Why not shoot the film with scifi fans (Ok, not trekkies) in it. Have them killed etc. Man, it's hard to be funny even with this. Let it die. Might as well make an Andromeda movie for all anyone cares.

Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: HaemishM on July 26, 2005, 02:00:26 PM Yeah, let's put Kirk back in the original yellow shirt, or even better, that stinky shit-green stylish number that showed his pit stains and man boobies so well. And let's do that now, with his belly hanging over his belt and bring in some Star Trek Fanfic writers to polish the script up with some hot Kirk/Spock/McCoy manlove action. Dig Deforrest Kelley up and lube that ashen corpse. We have childhood mythologies to rape.

Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Samprimary on July 26, 2005, 11:28:08 PM LeVar Burton is cool, however.
He's on our side. http://www.contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.nsf/mndwebpages/levar%20burton%20scrap%20star%20trek Quote STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION star LeVAR BURTON has begged TV bosses never to make another new Star Trek show and allow the sci-fi series to rest in piece. The actor - who played LIEUTENANT COMMANDER GEORDI LA FORGE on both the big and small screens from 1987 until his final appearance in 2002 movie STAR TREK: NEMESIS - hopes the last series of STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE, from 2001, will be the very last. And Burton is threatening to get nasty if executives ignore his pleas. He says, "Star Trek coming to an end is long overdue. "They ran it into the ground and made so much Star Trek that it ceased to be special. If they bring this back before a decade is out I will get a high-powered weapon and start picking off studio executives." 26/07/2005 01:52 Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Strazos on July 27, 2005, 01:38:20 AM Teh Winnar Is HE!

Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Samprimary on July 27, 2005, 02:37:28 AM There's so much pop culture in Star Trek. I mean, I could imagine a lot of people could answer these questions:
Which member of the Enterprise bridge crew was a Klingon? Which member of the Enterprise bridge crew was a robot? Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Ironwood on July 27, 2005, 04:02:45 AM Bah I'd rather link a bunch of Blalock kitty poses. I'm not saying she's not a total hottie who isn't afraid to show her pubes in Empire Magazine - however, she's not enough to bring this kind of shit back - she wasn't enough to make me even passably interested in Enterprise. Because it was dire. Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Merusk on July 27, 2005, 04:52:56 AM It was bad except for a few episodes of the first season and the last season, but Dire?

And then there was his "twin" they collected the pieces of in "Nemesis".Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Signe on July 27, 2005, 08:47:33 AM I have stopped understanding what anyone is talking about.
LaVar Burton was Chicken George, right? Title: Re: <Insert Beating a Dead Klingon Emoticon Here> Post by: Yegolev on July 27, 2005, 11:03:26 AM Which member of the Enterprise bridge crew was a robot?
