Will they go back to primeTrek after nuTrek finishes?.

The Prime is dead in terms of live action. There are still shitty fan fics pretentiously calling themselves novels.

Fixed.

It's dead but it still exists, in the sense that the Sean Connery Bond films still exist. And, as I hinted elsewhere, Daniel Craig is not the reason there will be no more Sean Connery Bond films.

That wasn't called for, -Brett-. I may not read the novels, and they're not really part of the discussion in this forum, but I know that other people do read and enjoy them. If one does not enjoy them, then one is under no obligation to read them. Altering someone's post to take a slap like that just looks petty, though, and is better avoided.

Thank you for your help, M'Sharak.

I don't want anybody to think that I mean to put down anybody's efforts.

According to Wikipedia Connery was born August 25th, 1930. He will turn 85 in a few months. At this point, Connery is too old to play any role except that of an old man.

Sean Connery is... James Bond in... "UNFORGIVABLE."

I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Ernst Stavro Blofeld, for what you did to Tracy.

 

[chardman]

Actually, that idea might be awesome for a stand-alone one-off. Connery reprising Bond, as an old man, and very much retired, who unexpectedly stumbles upon an equally old and retired Blofeld. What would happen? I'd certainly pay for a movie ticket to find out.

Prime Trek has now been dead for over a decade.

And nuTrek has now been "dead" for two years. Except neither is really dead, they're both merely waiting for their next production.

From a live-action production standpoint, one is very much dead while the other has a movie getting ready to go into production.

Except nuTrek hasn't been dead at all because it's been in development since then and everyone is still under contract for a third film.

CBS has no plans to produce prime Trek.
TNG-HD did not sell well.
There are no plans to upgrade DS9 or Voyager.
Everyone involved with Prime Trek has moved on to other stuff or aged beyond their role.
There's no demand for Prime Trek.
It's been a decade.

Taking a nap ≠ Dead

The NuTrek contract with Paramount does not end until 2018, all the way up to which they can extend it further. Until then, the cast, sets, production team etc are on notice to be ready to make new material and movies.

Which includes Star Trek Beyond starting production very soon, and the option for a fourth if it does as well or better than Into Darkness.

Prime Trek's sets where torn down, all props sold, everyone told to go home and essentially not come back ten years ago.

Dead? So how many fan productions of Prime Trek are there compared to fan productions of nuTrek?

 

[Dukhat]

^Not sure why that's relevant to the topic at hand.

Fan films don't count. Not really. Not in any real universe.

Prime Trek's sets where torn down, all props sold, everyone told to go home and essentially not come back ten years ago.

And there's no way in hell CBS would, as someone suggested, buy (or rent) sets from a fan production.

 

[Kemaiku]

^Exactly. So unless someone at CBS wants to spend the ridiculous amount of money needed to build sets for a new Trek series that would support 4K/HD recording and look at least as good as the movie sets, forget it.

People pretend to be Abraham Lincoln. That doesn't mean he hasn't been in the ground for 150 years.

 

[BeatleJWOL]

way too many pages to see if this has been said, yet way too many pages to believe it hasn't, but:

Will they go back to primeTrek after nuTrek finishes?

 

[Mach5]

The more important question is, when nuTrek does eventually finish and there's a long lasting hiatus, what will take it's place?

 

[Ovation]

NunuTrek, of course.

 

[RandyS]

NunuTrek, of course.

Is that anything like "NaNu NaNu Trek"?
