Re: Instead of Khan in a sequel.. how bout...
I don't agree about Shatner being a villain, but I do like the idea of doing the mirror universe on the big screen. I suggested the very same thing just a few months ago. I definitely think it can be done and done respectably. Yes, some of the DS9 episodes were rather silly, but look at what a great job Enterprise did telling a mirror universe story that was both fun and could be taken seriously with solid action, suspense, and tension. I bet a modern Star Trek movie dealing with the mirror universe could be intelligent and thrilling, but I agree with the person above me...the two writers of the last movie would need a lot of help to keep the plot tight.
