More proof the Berman and Braga are completely out of touch with the fan base.

Let's just say there will be a slight revision in our mission, and a slight revision in the part of space that Enterprise is heading into," confides Berman.

Lety me guess, they are going to end up in the Delta Quadrent, so that they can fully rehash Voyage plots and only have to use new sets and new actors?

"On the other hand, there's a possibility that the time has come to either bring in a new group, which could be totally new, or bring in a group that is from one of the other series. Or mix and match – we could do a film with some of the characters from Next Generation mixed in with the others – Enterprise would probably be difficult because it takes place 200 years before. If you were going to mix up the casts it would be difficult to get the continuity, but in Star Trek there's always time travel.

... words fail me.

ok! Trek is dead. Ok pack it up, movie it out, and don't spare the embalming fluid!

Not to mention that it looks like the Borg "Enterprise" episode appears official. Now I have no reservation about calling Star Trek nothing more than a Gramsci-esque shell of what it once was. Kinda like Michael Jackson.

This only goes down as further proof that B&B have no at all what is going on with Trek fans. Given the utter shit they keep turning out I'm not suprised. How these two utter fucking retards got to control the furture of Trek is beyond me. Their continued obliviousness is a source of constant wonder to me. How can they possibly be so clueless?

Alas poor Trek I knew it Horatio.A fine welcome franchise it was till Berman and Bragga craped all over it the Sodders.

The possibilities are endless once you don't have to worry about quality because it went down the toilet three craps ago.

So they find fragments of a Borg sphere and Borg buried in the artic tundra... Leftovers from First Contact.

This does not surprise me one bit. Seeing how First Contact was the only recent Trek done by B&B that was successful, I guess they got to milk it for all its worth.

Afterall, these are the same people that put in a rather shameless plug for the movie into a episode of Voyager when it came out on video.

Will somebody please shoot this franchise and put it out of its misery?

B&B are shitting in our mouths and calling it a sundae, I'm telling you, they fucking hate us.

Those are some Damn Magic Fragments considering they had to have flow at twice the speed of light for the Debir trail to have gotten that far

Or a better way of putting it
Since when did blowing up a ship a few hundred feet of the ground throw Debries onto the other side of the planet?

If that where true where are all the dead Americans killed by Shrapnal from the 98 Cruise Missle Strike on Iraq, Using B&B thinking we are in a high risk danger zone for that sort of thing

The real question is not why B&B are ignoring the fans. The fans want them dead and gone; of course they're not going to give them what they want! The real question is why Paramount has not given these two ass-clowns the axe, even though everyone and his dog knows that millions of Trek fans would celebrate.

Christ, reading that made me almost nauseous. It sucks to see something you like get thrown to the tenth layer of hell. I hate B&B so much.

Hmm. Is Enterprise still relatively profitble for Paramount? If it is, then it explains why they haven't been fired yet.

Where the hell is Paramount during all this, it seems they haven't noticed that one of their major franchise is being sent to the toilet.

I've got to wonder myself. B&B have dragged Trek down and are destroying it. I don't know what they're thinking, it's insane really because B&B are plain and simple idiots. Trek would be okay if it weren't for them.

. If you were going to mix up the casts it would be difficult to get the continuity, but in Star Trek there's always time travel.

Along with transporter accidents and holodeck malfunctions right?

In the script as it currently stands, the crew find fragments of a Borg sphere (leftover from First Contact, perhaps) and Borg corpses buried in the Arctic tundra.

The Borg that beamed over to the E-E, and those who didn't were vapourized by torpedoes, burnt in the atmosphere and picked up by the E-E so it *GASP* didn't effect the timeline!

Darth Garden Gnome · Post by **Darth Garden Gnome** » 2003-02-23 08:32pm

It's the Trek apocalypse!!! PRAISE THE LORD! Why do I say this? Aside from the obvious reasons of Nemesis and ENT going down the tubes, I have but four words for you: "There's always time-travel."

And with that ladies and gentlemen, the Star Trek Empire crumbles.

Post by **Darth Wong** » 2003-02-23 08:49pm

First there was Berman's comment that Star Trek is a great franchise to work on because people will always pony up the money to watch no matter what you make (he made this comment before Nemesis came out), and then we have this comment about how "there's always time travel" in order to fix their laziness. Pathetic.
