Would you want a Star Trek TV series or movies set during the ''lost era"? So the lost era would be in the time between Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country and the first season of Star Trek the Next Generation, so the years of 2293 to 2364, which would be over 70 years. This could be a live-action movie or tv show or an animated movie or tv show.

No but I want more books set during the "Lost Era". Maybe about what Captain Sulu is during those years. And maybe about the Federation Cardassian war.
Nope.
I would love a show or a movie set during this era. Is Paramount Plus allowed to do movies direct to the streaming service. I wish Picard season 3 was more of a movie than just 10 parts.
If you asked me that in 2005 after ENT ended, I would have said an enthusiastic “yes!”
Now? Any show they produce, no matter what time period it’s set in, will look and feel no different from either SNW (mid-23rd century), PIC (early 25th century) or DSC (32nd century.) So there would be no point in making a show set in the Lost Years.
Well, exactly.
If say they did a series about Picard's time on the Stargazer, they would just reuse the 25th century Stargazer set and have incongruous uniform designs and probably make Jack Crusher half Gorn and the Ferengi redesigned to have three eyes and translucent skin and for everyone just to be expected to accept it. They would also change Picard's character and have him meet TNG characters before he was established to have met them in order to do a soft reboot.
Other than doing a proper 22nd century Trek series which won't happen, I have no interest in any prequel. Star Trek should just be about going forward in time.

Picard is a prequel. The current in Trek is the 32nd century
I wouldn't have minded an Alan Ruck-led Captain Harriman series back in the day with Ensign Sulu. He maybe could've redeemed his disastrous debut in Generations
A Stargazer show featuring either Tom Hardy or James McAvoy as young Captain Picard would also be cool to see

I can highly recommend you read Serpents Among The Ruins. An excellent story with Harriman and he absolutely redeems himself quite well.
I'd love a series about the Earth-Romulan War.
I don’t know about a series or movies. But the Lost Era as a time travel destination, sure.
Better start your campaign now. I hear that's a sure thing to get hired!
I would but I'm working on my own campaign as president of LFL.
I'd support you!
While I know you're right, I'd love to see a picard prequel.
I had the idea, "concluded the obvious" that it would be awesome if JacK Crusher and Picard worked for section 31.
They met Data, but Data was ordered to forget everything he knew, Jack dies and Picard gets a memory wipe.
Picard of course doesn't start remember all this until he's in his late 80s so the show is a flashback of what he remembers, so sometimes his narratives are inaccurate giving leeway to the writers without messing with canon.
My idea was to tie together Worf/Khitomer/Data/Picard/Crusher and explain why welsley crusher was actually an augment. More fan fiction porn, but it is so obvious that it is a little surprising they didn't try to do it initially.
I think if anything the whole Phase II now becoming this mythical "lost era" is actually quite good.
And I think every time we dip into it, we take away a bit from it.
Perhaps sometimes its better to dream of what might have been, and rely on episodes like Flashback to just give us that fascinating hint.
