Star Trek Enterprise film

AMKC

So I seen this recently that with everything else CBS is doing maybe there might be an Enterprise film in the works too.
Who here would be interested in it?

I think if they done it sometime between ''Terra Prime'' and ''These Are the Voyages'' maybe during the Romulan war as this is what we all really wanted to see and maybe with the refitted NX-01 in it too and it could be a straight to Netfliks, TV movie if it would be to costly to go to the cinema or the demand for it would not be there for it in cinema's

If it was good enough maybe they could get two or three films out of it.

I wonder would all the actors be up for it?

Would love to see it happen as Enterprise never got the ending it deserved.

For some strange reason the old startrek is popping up on my YouTube feed a lot lately....

I'd love to see an enterprise movie, but you can't beat the fashion and hair designer of the first startrek.

Those women with the 60's hairdos and modette look was very tidy.....

If only I had a time machine...

If the actors were up for it, and they had a meaningful story to tell, I'd be ok with it. No faffing about with time travel, parallel universes, and so forth...the Enterprise crew (with Trip back, because he didn't die in the opening scripts for season 5), on the NX-01, with a decent story...I'd be ok with that as a Netflix jobbie.

Love to see it happen. Actually must start to watch the series back one of these days soon.

I read it as just them wondering if there might be.

I dunno, Enterprise did improve on quality massively in the fourth season, and I thought the final episode was a cop out, but I'd go for a DS9 film before an Enterprise film. The return of The Sisko, Captain Nog, Ambassador Worf, more Garak! It'll never happen, and it would never have mass appeal outside DS9 fans, but it would be great to see the Defiant in HD on the big screen with the station in the background!

Tell me about it. I was so disappointing when it aired and it was only an hour long and the way it had been done. I remember all the hype and being excited about it. I was like there must be another episode but no that was it. I watched it again recently and while some parts of it are good for first 20 to 30 minutes its just a TNG episode. If they had of showed us the holodeck at the end with Riker walking out of it then it might have been ok. I think the writers . producers and maybe the director all maybe had a bigger idea maybe to do two or three episodes but in the end they just tried to cram too much into one episode and thought that maybe it would work this way.

This is the the basis for it.

One main stumbling block is that bar Scott Bakula & Conor Trinnear, none of the cast have had any meaningful acting career. And there's a very simple reason for that; they were all bloody terrible. The idea of Ensign Mayweather - whose actor I'm still convinced to this day was simply a shop mannequin someone left on set as a joke - on the silver screen, is a bit ridiculous to imagine

Agent Coulson

John Billingsley is a very fine actor.

DS9 all the way. If I had to choose

AtomicHorror

I wouldn't say no to it, but it'd need to be pretty low budget- I don't see it finding a wide audience.

Don't see it happening, tbh.

reading AMKC saying
"there might be an Enterprise film in the works too" led to me to believe "there might be an Enterprise film in the works too".

Maybe. You left off the word maybe.

might and maybe basically mean the same thing don't they

I'd watch it. Give that series that send off it deserved. Not the crap that we got instead.

A Tv movie or mini-series sure. But a theatrical release? When pigs fly.

The likes of Chris Pine, Karl Urban, Zoe Saldana, and Leonard Nimoy HIMSELF couldn't give the studio the type of financial return they wanted. It's why the next Star Trek film is still up in the air.

If they known quantities and stars like them couldn't do it, can you honestly seeing any execs greenlighting this?? The cast of Enterprise and DS9 wouldn't have a hope. Most of them are ancient and haven't worked in years.

I don’t think it’s worth doing if I’m honest. I think they’ve reimagined Star Trek now with Discovery and if they want to bring Jolene Blalock back as T’Pol (she’d still be alive right?) then that’d be a cool link but otherwise I don’t see it happening.

Edit... just read she’d be around 160 at the time of Discovery so even by Vulcan standards she’d be older than her real life age. She also isn’t interested in Trek anymore apparently.

TheIrishGrover

Netflix movie possibly (And even that is a reach). Cinema movie? Not a chance. It was the blandest of the series by a long shot: As much as I disliked Voyager, at least it generated an interest.

pixelburp

Time was I'd have suggested the likeliest path would be a fan film, getting some of the original cast to come back; but from what I understand of the whole 'Axanar' debacle, there's probably little chance of that happening anymore to any great degree.

Worf can't of lasted too long as an ambassador as he was back in the Enterprise E as security chief for Nemesis. Didn't even get the first officer gig after Riker finally took up his own command.

Because of the events in Change of Heart where Worf rescued Dax instead of completing his mission of extracting a Cardassian defector Worf's rank is most likely the highest he'll ever attain in Starfleet.



It seems unlikely there'll be an proper conclusion to Enterprise but than again CBS All Access have a lot of time to fill.

Its a bit like the old Mission Impossible TV programs with the original cast - and whilst I think Tom Cruse did a great job on all the modern Mission Impossible films - there is something about the early 1970s episodes that have appeal. Star Trek original versions have the same appeal IMO

I am sure I seen something about that been back on. It was on facebook do so could be fake. Its a pity it looked great.

That would be a good way to link them alright. They could get someone else to play T'Pol if she is not interested if they ever decide to do that. 160 is young for a Vulcan sure wasn't Tuvok around that age. Vulcans can live twice as long as humans.

I agree the way Archer was done was terrible. Such a pity as he could have been done better and with get a glimpse of the Captain Archer we should have got from season 4 on. I agree it was the blandest series but at least it was in the Prime Universe and we got proper Star Trek ships and none of this silly magic stuff that's in Discovery.

Sure he got to command the Defiant.

It looked great, shame it was that help from tradespeople that sunk the production & opened the whole, sorry can of worms in the first place. Such a bungled farce from both sides of the fence IMO, and ultimately hurt the Trek community.

I agree it was a shame and agree that it did not help there either.
