Harve Bennett should sue
By Alawi

Harve Bennett's STARFLEET ACADEMY was shunned by fans and Paramount when it was written but the fact is it could work very well right now.

The movie opens and climaxes with William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy at Starfleet and the rest of the film is a long flashback to their younger days (to be played by younger actors of course). It was supposedly moving, action-packed and nostalgic and actually showed how Kirk and Spock met and how the latter dealt with bigotry and assorted obstacles and how Kirk fell in love and lost the lady.

If this was made today it could be great. You could incorporate new fans who are seeing the film for the younger actors and you could bring in the nostalgia crowd who grew up with TREK and who left the franchise more or less during ENTERPRISE'S first run.

It could be a great film if in the right hands and you could also have appearances by Scotty (a beautiful way for James Doohan to bid farewell during these tough times for him). Sulu, Checkhov and Uhura would also be featured.

I think Bennet's film could work now.
