JMS should get Crusade back on the air before he gets going with LotR. From having seen the pilot of LotR I think that Crusade has a lot more potential, although it was good to see G'Kar back on the screen.

Yeah, I think you are right there - I think maybe it's time to realise that the star trek francise has run it's race...

Personally I think a good end for Enterprise would be for Sam to 'leap' out of Archer after having completed some monumental task

- like finally getting T'Pol to get naked....

Wow! Definitely going to get 1-3 on DVD, will wait for 4 to drop in price.
Amazon are cheaper for the TV-movies tho.

Sorry to go back to an earlier part of this topic, but I have to just go back to being the uber-nerd that I am :

Unless i am mistaken, the first hint of the whole V'Ger / Borg connection was in Shatner's book, 'The Ashes of Eden' or the follow-up to it.... is this right? Am I making this up?

Sorry but I'd like to sort out my memories, lol, I was fourteen when I read my last star trek book...

Why don't they just drop it altogether and find a new universe.I'd love to see come of C.J Cherryh's universe brought to life on the screen.When I read her stories one actually can feel how dangerous space is.In the ST universe there just isn't the feeling that there is a vaccuum the other side of the spaceship wall.In Cherryh's books you get that claustrophobic,panicked feeling all through her books.

However just thinking how many good SF stories have been ruined by Hollywood scriptwriters perhaps it's just as well that they haven't.

Incog.

Feck they have messed up the timeline. Dont get me wrong but they messed it up. In Enterprise they made it out thay the borg from Nemesis were frozen and came back alive to send info to the part of the galaxy were the borg live. However we know from TNG that it was Q who sent the Enterprise D to meet the Borg who then knew of the humans. They messed up big time and not the first

Maybe its an american thing, screwing up continuity etc, just look what Lucas has done with Star Wars, makes me wonder if he actually wrote episodes 4,5&6

Tezcatlipoca · 21-05-2004, 20:15

I hate continuity errors like that

Star Trek, Star Wars, & others.

I finally gave up on the X-Men comics 'cos of all the ret-cons & time travel crap.

I gave up after the fantastic age of apocalypse. Never managed to get back into it.

Ah, AoA. Excellent story. I lasted a bit longer. Gave up in disgust & frustration during the "No Exit / Zero Tolerance" storyline, which came after the awful "Onslaught" cross-over.

I just stick to the Bat books now. No messy continuity. Ret-cons are v rare, & when they happen they're usually actually good. No time travel. No constant crossovers.

Trek:

Is it worth giving ST:E a go? I've not bothered with it since season 1. Then again, if s4 is going to be the last, there's probably not much point now.

Hmm good point but then again the fact that its sold to around 120 different countries helped in there decision for another series
