The Movies They Should Have Made

[CRM-114]

I also would have liked to se Planet of the Titans--and the movie proposed back around the late 1960's I've heard discussed here.

I've heard about the proposed movie from the 1960s, but I can't remember what the premise was, for the life of me.

A movie about Picard and Maquis. If they could bring back Ensign Ro. If they do, then she is very different than she was before. She's ruthless vengefuly and angry.

They outsmart each other, lots of political debates and intrigue. We can finally see that big unrestricted debate between someone like Picard and Ro about the Federation and what happened with the settlers and Maquis.

Throw in some Wrath of Khan chase scenes, and I think it might work.

If you had to have a "solve a people problem" movie, I'd rather see this over Insurrection.

My idea for a DS9 movie involved a (crazy) Cardassian Gul claiming to be a Changeling Founder leading a group of Jem Hadar and using Ro Laren and Thomas Riker as Manchurian Candidate types of brainwashed POWs sent on an assassination mission. The villains ultimate goal is to cause the Klingon Houses occupying the Cardassian Empire to fall into civil war.

The overall silhouette of the ship reminds me of the USS Vengeance .

It's pretty likely that I agree that a Mirror Universe premise would not be considered viable for a feature film. Also, by definition there was never any chance that a Voyager production was going to be sanctioned. But I must say that I think that a Voyager MU film done well would have been very entertaining and inevitably hilarious to those viewing who knew what to look for.

Of course, more than a fair number of folks would probably say that we got a few examples of this representation of the show in certain episodes anyway, even excluding "Living Witness".

I'd love a MU movie, and I think it could grab an audience. It's all in the execution, and has more appeal than many of the earlier movies. Evil doubles are a familiar concept people like.

 

[Orange Crusher]

We needed a movie with Wesley Crusher. He could have used his superior intellect to save the ship!

He could have worn his totally tubular sweatshirts with rainbows on them! And then he could have made out with chicks! Bitchin!

In all seriousness, that's exactly what the movie series needed...young blood! They always waited until the casts were all old and flabby when the films started.

Hindsight:

The Final Frontier

Takes place on Bajor. Bajor, a peaceful planet, is attacked by the Cardassians. Symbol could be not Spocks brother but a charismatic Bajorn terrorist leader. Hijacks the enterprise, they meet God, what does God need w a starship etc

Introduces the Bajoran conflict etc
