What would you have liked to have seen in a Voyager movie???
I always thought
STII Wrath of Khan was awesome among the TOS & TNG ST movies because it did two things. It showed us how our fav characters had progressed since both the end of the series and the end of the "1st" movie. Even more importantly, it answered a question left hanging from the original series, what happens when you put 80 supermen & women on a primordial planet?
I want to see what happens to the Voyager crew after they returned home. Specifically, what happens 10 years after they returned. Did Seven and Chakotay
wed? Did he stay within "transporter range" of her the rest of his life? How did Janeway take their relationship when it was blooming before her and the world? Did she sit quietly aside, like the future 's Admiral Janeway did on that 23 year trip home? Did it taint her mothering of Seven? Did Seven ever figure out why?
Speaking of Mothering, did Janeway keep up with the Paris family after they returned to the Alpha quadrant and if there was a fight on Voyager over who got to be Miral's Godfather, who ended up being her GodMother? Did Tom and B'Elanna stay together, and did they have more children? Did they ship out on a Galaxy class ship so they could bring the kiddies on board, or did one of them "stay home" to play house parent?
Did Tuvok stay in Starfleet, or even remain a Tactical officer? Did Harry EVER get promoted? Or get a steady girlfriend? Once back home, was there ever any further contact with Neelix? For that matter, what about the "lower deck" characters, Ayala who said maybe 10 words in 7 years, or Nozawa who never spoke a single word? Did Tal Celes leave the service to wait tables at a nice little bistro, and did Herren ever solve his mathematical postulate or Icheb ever get to serve on a Starfleet Bridge?
That's what I want in my Voyager movie, and since I don't expect TPTB to come up with the answers, I found my own answers here.

Like the 3rd "Pretender" Movie, or the 4th season of "Lost World". Or heck, what happened at the end of Dynasty when the cave-in trapped everyone underground as the gun went off and the TV faded to black. ;-)
Oh, and while there's a writing technique involved in the fanfic that some might decry, there's also a smattering of favorite DS9 characters that might just make up for the audacity. Maybe. :-)
