[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] All due respect to Mr. Takei, but if "Flashback" is anything to go by I don't think he'd make a good lead. But ultimately this all boils down to taste in set design, I bet. As Lee says, there's no show just waiting to leap out of Star Trek VI or "Flashback." It would have to be totally invented from the ground up, so all we've really got to make our decision is whether we would want X years of movie-era set design. Also, I guess, if I were asked to choose an era, sight-unseen, I'd probably choose Enterprise (or even, as Sternbach talked about, some period even earlier). There isn't any particularly new ground for Sulu to cover. His show would have all the pitfalls of a prequel (can't introduce anything too novel without breaking continuity) with none of the benefits Enterprise had (the ability to go back and introduce core Trek concepts). Now, having said all that, I like movie-era design just fine, and complaints about his ability to fill the lead role aside I'm sure I'd be willing to give Takei the benefit of the doubt for awhile. But anyway an Excelsior series never had much to recommend it, in my view. [/QB][/QUOTE]
