Count me in with Joel and Col. Green.

Not good enough. Just saying no is too easy. If you disagree with my list, you have to give me yours--at least for a couple of the characters. But you can't use the original cast: No one could compete with them. Also, you can't use Mr. T for Worf (unless you really have to).

^Denzel Washington would make the Geordi character more like Riker. And Maculay Culkin is too old to play TNG season 1 Wesley. I concur with the others. It is a terrible list.

And why can't one pick Mr. T???? Can I pick Hulk Hogan to play Riker?

Fair enough. You've got Mr. T as Worf and Hulk Hogan as Riker. What do you think of Mean Joe Green as an alternate Worf?

Hold the lights, camera, and action! I've had an inspiration: Instead of Bruce Willis I'll take John Cleese as Captain Jean-Luc Picard. There. Perfect.

 

[Red Ranger]

Why?

 

[Zameaze]

Why?

To perfect our cast, of course. Wait, wait...the muse has spoken again: Jeff Goldblum as Lt Commander Data. Sorry Johnny Depp.

Any cast with Angelina Jolie in it makes me throw up a little.

Then you have to give us your choice for Deanna Troi.

Hey, I forgot to cast Lwaxana Troi. I think I'd choose Phillis Diller for that part.

 

[Tiberius]

Chuck Norris as Captain Picard. And Chuck Norris as the rest of the cast.

Because he could do it.

Picard - Jim Broadbent (though I'd just go ahead and make Picard British, not French)
Riker - Tom Selleck (in his prime)
Data - Gabriel Byrne (though I'd make Data older and a lot less naive)
Worf - Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje
LaForge - Mos Def
Crusher - Helena Bonham Carter
Troi - Suffron Burrows

 

[Nardpuncher]

I just threw up a little.

I swear that's exactly what I was going to say!

 

[RandyS]

I just threw up a little.

I just threw up alot.

Brad Pitt should NEVER get involved with Star Trek.

Never.

Ever.

For any reason.

Ever.

Never.

Worf - Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje

Crusher - Helena Bonham Carter
Troi - Suffron Burrows

OK, I'm impressed. Challenge answered. And I agree, let's just make Picard British: That French thing never worked.

Chuck Norris as Captain Picard. And Chuck Norris as the rest of the cast.

Because he could do it.

I'll give you Chuck Norris as Captain Picard, but as Deanna Troi--I don't know. I'd have to see him in the purple catsuit first.

 

[Nardpuncher]

And I'm not going to provide any actors because I think it's a good idea for a Trek show to use relatively no-name actors.
Stunt casting like this would take me so far out of the show.

 

[Withers]

Here's my list:

Bruce Willis as Captain Jean-Luc Picard

Brad Pittas Commander William T Riker, First Officer

Johnny Depp as Lt Commander Data, Second Officer

Denzel Washington as Lt Commander Geordi La Forge, Chief Engineer

Nicole Kidman as Dr Beverly Crusher, Chief Medical Officer

Angelina Jolie as Counselor Deanna Troi

Vin Diesel as Lt Worf, Chief Security Officer

Macaulay Culkin as Ensign Wesley Crusher

I don't understand... is this supposed to be taken seriously? The actors skill sets don't match up at all, to say nothing of the fact that Macaulay Culkin is older than I am and Bruce Willis can't effing act. If they ever decided to re-boot TNG all of the actors will be entirely too old to play any of those roles...

I must be missing something?

[Admiral Shran]

^ I wouldn't say Bruce Willis can't act. He's certainly not the best actor, but he's just at his best when he's a dirty, ass-kicking son-of-a-bitch. I don't think a Star Trek captain would work with a character like John McClane.

Brad Pitt shouldn't be allowed near Star Trek.

Johnny Deep can't do it, unless Tim Burton becomes the show's full time director.

Denzel Washington is over-rated.

I suppose Nicole Kidman could work, maybe.

Angelina Jolie needs to be kept away from any movie, television show, or stage performance. She's awful.

Vin Diesel is the one who can't effing act.

Macaulay Culkin .... .... .... .... has he had a good, or even decent, movie since Home Alone?
