'Star Trek: Enterprise' Cancelled?
Tycoon Guy writes "There seems to be no avoiding it this season: TrekToday is reporting that the Enterprise production crew has been told they will all be fired in March, after completing filming on another four episodes. If true, that leaves only very little time to participate in the Save Enterprise campaign. But even if Enterprise is cancelled, all may not be lost: Rick Berman said today he's working on a new Trek feature film that will have "a larger scope and budget" than ever."
The beating of the dead horse has ceased, yay.

Asses are for crapping, not screwing.
Dont fire the crew. Fire Berman!
Wesley, is that you?
If you don't think that's a reason to despair, you obviously haven't seen ST:Nemesis.

Go ahead mod me, I got more.
That said, who here doesn't think that his "biggest scope ever" Star Trek movie will be the cinematic equivalent of a 20th year reunion special for some sappy sitcom?
Warf will be captaining Deep Space 9, Picard will be an admiral, Shatner will somehow show up, perhaps as his evil universe twin, while Janeway comes blasting out of the Epsilon quadrant to save the day. And of course the quantum leaper will time travel to the future to see it all with the help of his friend from the "Queer Eye for the Time-traveling Guy" department of a futuristic Federation. Then, at the last minute, Henry Winkler will show up on his motorocycle, and they'll shout "Fonz!".
Well, maybe Wheaton will get a chance to be onscreen, at least.
Ah yes, but remember Rick Berman made them. The moment you went to bite said cookie a tachion beam would strike the tasty morsel causing a time rift. You'd have the raw incredients of sugar, hydrogenated palm oil, colour and flavour dripping on your chin. Then you'd have to defeat the Borg (again) to get the cookie back to its baked state.
Trolling is a art,
Givin the subplot to the last movie, I'm guessing the next one will be called "The Search for Data" or possibly that be "Data Mining"?
But they just had had had to mess it up with time travel
But, Berman said the Time Travel and Holodeck episodes were the best ones on TNG. He LOVED them!

I think you're onto something. They could even have Fonzie jump his motorcycle over the horta. Think of the ratings!
It's not offtopic, dumbass. It's orthogonal.
What follows is just my opinion but I liked Star Trek better before it got so preachy and, for lack of a better word, pussified. Every so often you just have to say screw the prime directive and stick a photon torpedo up some mofo's tailpipe.

Ghod; Joe Straczynski doing Trek? That is like, well, bringing Linus Torvalds in to lead the Windows Longhorn team. It makes so much sense it could never happen.
OTOH Rick Berman can kiss my hairy butt. You could replace him with an baboon and get better results...

So what I want to know is, did anyone at Slashdot even READ the fine article before a story about it?
We did experiment with reading the linked articles for a while, but we found they conflicted with the headlines and blurbs we were writing. So we stopped.
With Nemesis as the last "even" Trek movie, only time will tell what a suckfe^H^H^H^H^H^Hdelightful gem this next "odd" movie will be.
-- I prefer the term "karma escort."
Don't forget how they will film some scenes with Wil Wheaton, only to cut them in post-production, because he's not "edgy" enough.

No need for Winkler. Picard jumped the shark years ago.

No no no...
They are extending the scope of the last Star Trek movie namely Nemesis.
They plan to kill off all of the cast members and replace them with retarded versions of themselves.

This means that Sci fi fans are competing on which show they will watch, as opposed to being able to easily watch *both*
If only someone would come up with a way to watch one of the shows while it was being broadcast, but watch the other show later. Some way of "capturing", if you will, the video signal as it travels through the air or down the wire. Oh well...
