Star Trek: Nemesis Gets the Go Signal
PatJensen writes "Star Trek TNG: Nemesis, the 10th Star Trek movie gets the green light from Paramount today. It will be directed by Stuart Baird, who did Executive Decision, US Marshals and Tomb Raider. Looks to be pretty action packed. Digital Domain
(LOTR, Titanic) will be doing the SFX. The movie seems to be based around Romulan conflict with the Federation. " Can't be as bad as Insurrection. At least, I hope not. BTW the first movie is out on DVD now and they did a pretty good job with the re-release.
Finally.. we had to wait til the 10th movie to finally arrive at the one with the Romulans. They've been saving them as a plot for... forever. And, its an even numbered flick, so its probably inevitable that this movie is going to be very, very good.
"Captain Picard and Commander Data. Oh, and those other guys too."

I had read on Wil Wheaton's site that Lavar Burton had mentioned that this was the last one.
I think it would be cool to have the next film with the DS9 crew. Thee were a lot of stories left open. Sisko coming back. A whole new relationship with the Changlings. The whole Gamma quadrant. Lots of material.
I don't know what Voyager could do. They got home. End of story. Thank goodness. 7 of 9 aside, I didn't like the show.
Sorry I am spoiled, I want to have better action and more fun with this sort of movie and ST lacked in both departments. We all have got a little blase about SFX, they are good for spectacle but don't exactly help the movie develop. Some of the ST story lines were just plane lame, some showed promise, but were not well developed.
See my journal, I write things there
