Any ideas on when the next movie is going to take place. I myself, are hoping for something after Voyager, keep Star Trek moving. What I heard, (Incase you consider this a spoiler)

$$$$$$$$$$$$$

At a recent convention i went to, a TNG star said that they were'nt going to be able to appear in the next Series, because of the time in which it takes place, leading me to think its going the be pre-TNG. What are your thoughts.

You know, it could also be post-TNG ...

But right now, it's sort of an even split. I don't think anyone (aside for Paramount) know when the next series will be set ...

Although it probably will be aboard a USS ENTERPRISE ...

Maybe but rumors say that it could be a Pre-TOS, Movie era, Post-TNG or a Section 31 show. I will watch all of them however I have to admit Voyager sort of made me less interested in Trek then I was before.

I think he was talking about the next movie, not the next series.

Who was the star that said that?

Actually, he was talking about the next movie, then switched to the next series. I'm confused.

Does anybody else think that a post TNG show featuring a new Enterprise would be extremely difficult to pull off?
You would have to deal with the current movies which would feature an "older" Enterprise-E, which up to this point has been cutting edge. TPTB would have to make the movie goers interested enough to watch a crew who are already outdated by a TV show crew and ship. I find this inherently flawed for some reason.

I just think that two timelines at the same time in the frachise would be a bad idea.

Well, i don't know about post TNG, because Voyager is post TNG, and there have been TNG characters appear on Voyager.

Oh, fuck me sideways with a chainsaw.

1986: Star Trek IV is released to rave reviews and healthy box office.

1987: Star Trek: The Next Generation hits TV screens. Very little is revealed about the fate of the crew of the Enterprise-A or the intervening 80 years of history.

1989: Star Trek V is released, to damning reviews and - well, let's be honest here, considering it came out the same summer as Batman, it didn't do too badly.

1991: Star Trek VI is released, to. .. oh what the fuck. You get the point?

Probably not.

OK, here goes.

2001: (um heap big year bilong now) Star Trek Series V appears on TV screens. It is unmitigated lukewarm handmade shite that everyone watches only because there might be a new starship registry.

2002: (um heap big year bilong next) Star Trek X is released, and by then we're all so desperate for any decent Trek it does quite well.

I don't see why everyone thinks having two concurrent timelines is a big deal. They did it wit TNG and the TOS movies, and noones head exploded then, so apparently it's Trekker safe.

I dunno, there's a few folks here about whom I can say that I'd pay good money to see their heads explode...
