Would you like to see Harry Mudd in the new movies?

I toyed with this idea in a single post in another thread a while back. My choice for a film version of Harry was Jack Black. Though Seinfeld's Wayne Knight would likely be closer to Carmel's style.

 

I remember when a Mudd type character showed up in Stargate. I was like.. I'm over this. And I'm still over it.

If we see him in the background of a space station that Our Heroes are passing through, perhaps with furry critter held aloft to admirers and he is never ever mentioned that would be fine. Or not.

^I'll say this though, I'd cave on my Mudd resistance if it was Jack Black

 

The chase through the asteroid field at the start of "Mudd's Woman" would work well - Mudd in the fast little ship from ID, zipping between asteroids, and the gigantic Enterprise in chase, blasting them out of the way with phaser strikes.

 

I don't think Mudd as shown in TOS would be appropriate in nuTrek.
nuKirk would probably admire PrimeMudd

 

Don't you mean "The Outrageous Okona?"

That or bang his daughter, which would inevitably result in a conflict with Carol...

 

Harry Mudd sucked... but Roger Carmel was the shit.

 

Not as a villain, but Mudd could work very well as a side character who gets caught up in some random adventure with the Enterprise crew.

 

No. I mean "The Neutral Zone".

 

This.

I guess he was supposed to be one of the dead people or something?

 

^ Yep. The character of Ralph Offenhouse was created when it became impossible to use Mudd.

 

They should ask Shatner to play Mudd in NuTrek...
(he's fat enough now)

Have him fall/get pushed off a bridge...

Then he could die in both versions... Stupidly.

 

Stella Androids 1 through 500 nag him to death.

 

What's the source for that assertion?

 

I could see them using a Harry Mudd/Cyrano Jones character in the next Trek movie. Not as a main 'Villain', but certainly as a third party working both sides for personal gain. It would be fun to add a bit of comedy to a franchise that had been dull and dower under Rick Berman for so many years.
