Latest from the Rumour mill.

Rumors on Trek X and Series V including "Official memo"!

Voyager's Delight has these possible spoilers about the next Trek Series and Trek X:

<<Star Trek X will feature some familiar races such as shape shifter and Klingons.

The bulk of the action will take place towards the middle end of the movie.

Rick Berman has created something which will be vastly different from Insurrections and more of a fast paced heroic adventure like Generations but with the action of first contact.

This movie has been created on the concepts of taking the best elements from all 9 blockbuster movies mentally to help create a single sensational star trek adventure in the physical sense.

This concept has come directly from Rick Bermans and is a strategy that he will hope create a truly great movie.

I must also add that some couple will be getting married in Trek X and someone will meet their end so have a box of tissues ready Star trek fans because you may need them when you see this movie at the movies.

I must also add that the villain will be a clone of someone associated with the Romulans, I have heard from a higher source that this clone will be female.

I cant say if it will be a female Villain who takes Picard on, but I doubt it.>>

As the current pilot's have been placed through the creative team writing unit, Paramount has agreed to allow the new series featuring the Enterprise to have a trade mark logo printed across the defiant NX-6754 model on the computer design drawing board.

Suggested impute stated this should include a more defiant name.

One key problem with the Berman script under discussion tomorrow is that it will conflict with one aspect of continuity in the 24th century series TNG> aspects of the 26th century will need to be modified if it is to be considered.

Does everyone feel complete with the new Enterprise F design?

All the #### and *** looks like something from the X Files to me - You can believe it if you want - but I'm begining to enjoy reading all these rumours even if they aren't true.
 
Fantastic that Dave.... very good indeed...
 
an interesting thread, thanks everyone. I just hope it is not a pre TOS series, i don't know how they could do it without everything having to look very very tacky. Going back in technology is not something i can see as happening but we shall see.
 
I for one agree.. i would not like it be be pre tos unless it was to do with a timeship scenario... now that would be good
 
I'm hoping for the 'Timeship' too. Obviously, I would still watch whatever it was because I'm a fan, but it would be a serious mistake to just do pre-TOS. We can only wait until May 23rd.
 
yer thats right... As a fan it is our duty to stand by Berman.. isn't it.... LOL

I cant wait till May 23rd to see the Promo
 
All the rumours are good fun, I also hope they will go to the future again, not the "past" pre-TOS. I feel this will be too limiting in both alien races discovered and in technology available...

Bring on the timeship Enterprise... ;)
 
Yer right... Timeship Enterprise.... Cool

Is it just me or is this the only thread that spreads accross the whole page ???
 
Thought it was my laptop playing up again... been off laterly it has... Needs to go to the doctors...
 
A Thousand Apologies.

Sorry, it was my post that did that! I've edited it now.

When I first read your post markpud, I didn't think you were serious, but that was the cause of the problem.
 
thanxs for the info ... Good to know what was causing it... thought it wsa my computer....
 
were u been markpud... not seen u on for a while
 
well as tempting as it is to say yes to that... in fact i've just been at my folks house over easter and separated from my PC and my unmetered access...
 
Series 5 announcement this week!

Have you heard this?

<<Josef Adalian at the Daily Variety reported that "UPN is expected to receive another boost as early as this week, with Paramount Network Television set to announce that the next series in the Star Trek franchise, the tentatively titled Enterprise, will bow on the network in the fall." The Hollywood trade paper went on to say that, although Paramount and UPN are both owned by Viacom, it had been rumoured that Enterprise could end up elsewhere, but it now seems fairly firm the Trek franchise will remain on UPN.

Star Trek producers Rick Berman and Brannon Braga have reportedly been wanting to announce the series for months now, a sentiment that was publicly expressed by Braga when he visited the recent Grand Slam convention. An announcement was apparently being held up by the lack of a firm UPN commitment, but now that the network appears ready to announce the show we will hopefully also soon hear more from the creative team.

One other issue that might still hold up the official announcement is that no main star has apparently been signed yet. Ain't It Cool News reported yesterday that negotiations with Quantum Leap actor Scott Bakula are back on, with earlier talks breaking down over both financial and creative issues. The actor has been linked to the role of Captain Jackson Archer.

Apparently, Bakula asked for approval and veto rights for Enterprise, not an unusual demand for well-known actors joining a new TV series, though no Star Trek series has ever given its actors such power. Bakula, however, has extensive experience in this area. He served as executive producer on his short-lived CBS series Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and has created TV movies such as 'Bachelor's Baby' and 'Papa's Angels' with his Bakula Productions company.

Whether this new round of negotiations means the two sides were able to settle their differences is unknown.>>


-- and Markpud what does this mean for Buffy?

<<Even if a Star Trek announcement doesn't yet come this week, UPN is still basking in the glory of obtaining the rights to Buffy. With the show, the network finally has a chance to increase its public image. "[This show] make it possible to launch other quality shows with it," said UPN CEO Dean Valentine. "It's a great thing for us.">>
