One question
By Cranston


I apologize if this subject has been brought up in one of the other 137 posts, but I have a question: why is everyone so convinced that this prequel film is being developed by B&B? Yes, Berman has said that he is "involved" in the film's development (I think he said something like "deeply involved"), but there's been no mention of Braga's involvement that I'm aware of. In fact, Braga says "there is a prequel feature in development," not "we're developing a prequel feature."

Ordinarily this might seem like wishful thinking, but the AICN post back in March that originally broke this story (here) clearly stated that B&B are NOT developing the movie -- that instead, Jordan Kerner (of...ugh..."Snow Dogs" fame) is in charge.

In light of this, and the lack of specifics in B&B's comments, I really wonder if they're involved much at all. It could very well be that Paramount is giving the prequel movie to an entirely different team, and that Berman is being consulted in the development (possibly only to avoid continuity conflicts), but without any real power. We all know his tendency to overstate things in interviews; maybe this is another example? Or is there other evidence of B&B's involvement that I'm unaware of?

If true, I'm cautiously optimistic, not because I think that the "Snow Dogs" guy is the most obvious choice, but because there's the possibility that we might actually see some non-Berman Trek for the first time in 13 years.
