The Maquis were right.

Um.... Did you watch DS9? The show did a good job painting the Maquis' POV as they were being stamped out by the empirical Federation. If anything, DS9 exposed TNG's 'perfect' Federation's dark side.

As someone who worked for them for nearly a decade, as an executive mind you, they are out of touch and slow to react. It's analysis by paralysis.

They've run this studio, with some incredible IP, like a Mom & Pop shop from the 20's, for decades. And the thing is, they won't listen until they're literally on death's doorstep, until nothing they have is working. Like, the studio has to be failing, big time, before they say, "Okay, let's run with this great idea that's been gestating forever".

It's really dumb.

PS - Marina and Mike moved a few years ago but Ms. Kendrick moved in directly across from her old house. Not a bad trade. :D

I believe it's paralysis by analysis.

Interesting insight. Thanks. Hopefully they get in deep shit so they put out something good:D

Paramount is a weird joint, mainly due to Sumner Redstone. If he ever kicks the bucket, things should change over there.

That said, it's hard to envision a weekly Star Trek show due to the budget. They were at $4 million an episode back when it went off the air in the 90's and would like cost significantly more in 2015. They might be looking at $6 million an Epi, even with a new cast, which would put a 13 episode commitment at $78 million, which is more than Game of Thrones. Star Trek TV programs have never had a GOT type audience.

It's a tough sell.

I remember when they were the 'cool' studio back in the 80s


They put out all the top hit movies it felt like.

I wonder what things would be like if movies were still made as they were in the 20s and 30s, with different types of stories told by the same stable of actors. I think it'd be neat to see the same core group of thespians take on different types of major and minor roles and in different genres.

Closest thing we thing we've seen is the Judd Apatow / Chris Nolan reusing the same roster of actors for their flicker shows.

Yeah, get Klingons right it will hide a lot of sins. That and don't **** with the major cast members.

Orci's script was dumped.

I think Paramount is going to screw this up by forcing a film out by 2016. New director, new script, filming and post in the next 18 months spells disaster, IMO.

What's the best case scenario for this film if they do force it out by 2016? Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm intrigued by Lin directing this thing.

This is going to be the worst Star Trek movie ever.

Worse than V? That's a tall mountain to climb to get to that level of suck.
