A thought about Star Trek XII

This might be the wrong forum, but it logically pertains...

I might be biased, but I think the novel "Prime Directive" by the Reeves-Stephens to be an excellent followup to the reboot.

It has all the elements neccassary(?) for excellent Trek, with all the originals, and keeping true to what Trek is all about.

"Prime Directive" is one of my personal favorite novels, and I think it would best be served having a writer do the screenplay, if not the R-S's themselves

Or maybe KRAD, Mr Mack, Mr Ward, Garamet, Mr Bennett, et al.

Did I break a rule?
 
Nobody here has anything to do with the writing of the next movie. Messrs. Abrams, Orci, Kurtzman, and Lindelof have that in hand. They've already spent months hashing out ideas, so they're not going to drop everything and adapt an old novel. And they're sure as hell not going to hire a novelist to do it for them.
 
I think Prime Directive would make a better Enterprise season 4-style TV story arc (as in, three or four episodes long) than a movie.

And they'd have to change the end.
