""NEW TREK FEATURE: STAR TREK producer Rick Berman has finally dropped the first hints of a new theatrical project for the franchise. In the latest issue of "Dreamwatch" magazine, Berman confirms for the first time that he is now developing a STAR TREK feature film project: "I am involved in the very early stages of what could be the next STAR TREK movie," reveals Berman, in an excerpt provided by Dreamwatch. "It's something I will be producing with two other producers." He cryptically describes it as "a prequel" without any further elaboration. The names of his producing cohorts will have to remain unknown for now, as well. This follows a report earlier this week from Dark Horizons that Paramount may be working on a project the site described as "Starfleet Command." Coincidentally, former TREK producer Harve Bennett (STAR TREKs II-VI) revealed recently that several years ago he had pitched a Starfleet Academy-based STAR TREK movie concept. On the television front, while the future of their first series remains in limbo, Berman confirms that he is developing a non-STAR TREK sci-fi series with partner Brannon Braga. Both Berman and Braga have development deals with Paramount. If a new series begins development in earnest, TrekWeb insiders suggest Berman and/or Braga might take a reduced role in a fourth season of ENTERPRISE, though this is entirely speculation.”"

Now, if there was an alternitive space-based show on the air, a GOOD one, perhaps with a western feel to it.....

Never been a big trek fan but I think (and friends of mine) Startrek has never been as good as Enterprise is. Not brilliant but better than TNG, Voyager, DS9.

A coherent story which all ties together season to season, episode to episode. None of the PC bull**** of TNG and not the soapopera in space of DS9 and NO KIDS!!!.

The writers were taking several 'somethings' from "First Contact" and extrapolating from it.

The Borg & Enterprise E crew is at fault for TOTALLY changing history.

For the good of humanity, I would throw myself from the tallest building upon being passed the script for Police Academy 2.

Arguably. Cochran's warp flight and first contact with the Vulcans went pretty much as planned (who's ever gonna remember the names of two random techs who flew co-pilot?)

TNG established the idea of being able to alter memories, so both Cochrane and Sloan could've been "reset" before Enterprise left. Even if they didn't, they could easily have sworn Sloan (a military girl) to secrecy. Who would've believed her anyway?

All anyone needs to know was that someone (either "Eastern Coalition," or random terrorists) attacked the Phoenix facilities. Most of the staff was killed off, but Dr. Cochrane managed to make the launch on his own with the help of a handful of passing strangers.

Years later, some unidentified alien cyborgs were found in some crashed wreckage, stole a ship, tried to send a signal to the Delta Quadrant, and were destroyed. No one expects anything to come of it.

It's not til centuries later that Q actually introduces the Borg that somebody looks at a history tape and makes the connection.

Same thing with the "Ferengi Kerfuffle." All Archer & crew know is that some unidentified aliens tried to steal their stuff. No one knows who they are until centuries later, when a ship belonging to someone called "the Ferengi" attacks Picard's Stargazer. It'll be into TNG before anyone sees a Ferengi's face and can make the connection to the wandering pirates who raided NX-01.

Iff I was as fame-shy as Cochrane was in FC ("Everyone who's ever had a statue built of them was some kinda sum'bitch or another" ), I'd hop the first experimental ship to unexplored space.

Probably ending up right where Kirk's crew found him in TOS.

So much for the principle of non-contradiction! Philosophy and rational thought are tossed out the window.

It's funny to see you contradict yourself in your own post.

I liked TNG and the first season of DS9. I also like Voyager when it first started, then I got bored with it and started watching again when Jeri Ryan joined. I watch Enterprise but almost every episode I've seen is a rehash of something that TNG or Voyager already did. I hoping it gets better. I haven't seen 'Damage' yet but I heard it's good.

And this WAS {the writers have seemed lose sight of it} the intention - Cochran was put on a different path than in the 'original' timeline because of his interactions with the E-E crew.

Which is one of the reasons why he didn't scarper off at the same time as he did in the original timeline. Something to do with his interaction with Riker, LaForge and the rest making him want to insure that the future was better for these selfless folks who had helped him in his ... ahem enterprise.
