STAR TREK XI to be Filmed in Australia, Set in 2010 ? - Movie Rumor Mill Spinning Fast (SPOILERS)

Features

By GustavoLeao / 17:12, 22 July 2005 / Star Trek: Nemesis

Several rumors about the STAR TREK XI prequel movie have appeared today on the net, rumors that TrekWeb has been unable to officially confirm or deny.



According to the latest issue of STAR TREK Magazine, just out in the UK, Paramount bosses have hinted that the prequel may be filmed in Australia, according to a claim made by the Premier of South Australia, Mike Rann, when he opened the Australian Star Trek convention, Terra Nova, back in April
.
"Mr Rann had been with Paramount Pictures executives at a dinner in Adelaide the day before our convention," Stuart Blair, President of the United Federation of Planets Fan Club of South Australia told Star Trek Magazine. Although that meeting was primarily about Paramount's upcoming film of Edgar Rice Burroughs' PRINCESS OF MARS, Paramount execs apparently also revealed they were also considering shooting the next STAR TREK film in Australia.

STAR TREK Magazine reader Carol Dale, who was at the event says the Premier also revealed some of the next film's plot.

"STAR TREK XI will be set in the very near future," Carol reports. "2010 to be exact. A time when the Earth has been almost destroyed by nuclear war, when our saviours from the future arrive."

"The story is to be set over two movies," Carol continued. "As to who will star nothing was said, but it was inferred that Spock was a must. But if they are bringing help from the future it leaves it open to star any and all of the STAR TREK casts from all the shows."

To read the full article, get the latest issue of STAR TREK Magazine at your local newstand.

This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.

What crack are you smoking? Berman didn't write one episode set during the Domnion War, nor was he even on the writing staff. He was still just the company guy then (he didn't start taking in active role in writing process until DS9 went off the air, and VOY was running alone).

So, we have Ira Behr to thank (he was the show runner) for the Dominion War, and thank him we do.

Where have you been? Have you seen Trek over the last 10 years? Berman may have started out with good ideas with TNG but that was 20-something odd years ago. He has dragged it down and destroyed it and the sooner you and Paramount discover the truth the better. Wake up!

Rick Berman did NOT make Star Trek a success. That's a myth. TNG's first two seasons had ratings over triple what Enterprise had. Rick Berman didn't create TNG. GR did. It's a lot easier to work with characters and a series that someone else created. The framework was there without Berman.

Once Berman was left to create, Trek tanked, because Rick Berman never has, and never will understand Star Trek.

I have no interest in a Rick Berman movie. Unless the next movie has William Shatner returning as James T. Kirk, post-Generations, I will not watch it.

Regarding the Dominion War Ludwig, I'll have to disagree with you. It's been understood that Ira Behr and Ron Moore were pretty much left to their own devices regarding DS9 and the Dominion war. Berman and Bragga in the meantime were putting out utter crap in a show called Voyager. I actually read an interview by Behr saying that Berman suggested to him that the Dominion 'War' not last more than a few episodes. Well they went against that advice and gave audiences 2.5 years of compelling drama. So much for Berman trying new stuff.
