If you were in charge of the Star Trek 2017 series what would you make it about?
>>67385816
Another galaxy
They've discovered all quadrants and charted a good portion of most (Gamma and Delta less so).
Time to go to Andromeda..
>>67386131
IRL there is no such thing as a galaxy named Gamma and Delta. So what if the Andromeda galaxy is in fact the the Delta depicted in the Star Trek fictional universe.
>>67385816
I would have it on HBO for starters. And I would not pick teeny booper actors to play all of the recurring roles. Hire a lot of known veteran actors.
Have the series take place 100 years after TNG .
Space lesbians
Star Trek: Kazon
>>67386204
Do you mean no such thing as a quadrant named one of those two?
As, what are you talking about? We would know for certain if we were in the Andromeda galaxy or the area of our galaxy known as the Delta quadrant.

Yeah, definitely aphasia..
>>67385816
I like the idea of a procedural, with some tactical little ship (Defiant-size and power, but obviously not as ugly) with the mission of finding criminals. You'd still have the standard crew setup - Captain, 1st officer and pilot in red, Chief engineer, operations officer and tactical officer in gold, counsellor, science officer and chief medical officer in blue.
You'd still have all the other opportunity for good sci-fi and a range of other missions in there also like with diplomats or Borg attacks or what have you, it's just that their primary mission isn't to explore, but to catch bad guys.

WHO WILL BE MADE A STAR FOR SEX IS WHAT IM SAYING?
just give it to meyer and let him do whatever the fuck he wants.
i care too much about the franchise to appropriately answer this question and even as an aspiring writer myself i know he would take the same themes (grey areas, conflicted/flawed characters doing their best on both sides, realism over overidealism) and execute them better than i ever would.
Time has passed. The Federation has been fucked up and Federation space is in chaos.
Tech has taken as step backwards because of lack of resources.
Ships are stripped out and unreliable on occasion.
The remains of the star fleet are working hard to protect core worlds and rebuild galactic peace.
But I fear we'll get a female Kirk and a pointless reboot.

People like wrath of khan.

make the captain a transgender infact make the whole cast transgenders.
>>67389391
That's basically Andromeda.
Have it set after a cosmic disaster. Spacetime has been fucked over like Delphi expanse or a dozen other experiments that went wrong. Whole worlds are gone new ones plunked down, some moved from other quadrants or galaxies, some from different dimensions or alternate timelines. Physics is different in different areas. Most of the federation I'd gone like your idea but the remaining people are trying to save what's left and recruit these new worlds into the federation. Keep it 60% episodic with lots of first encounters and the rest with old species like the Romulan using this opportunity to expand since they will take the science risks others won't. Maybe have one of the other races (cardasians? Breen?) Get the worst luck of them all and have their sector made unlivable. So they have to go out to find a new place but space is so fucked they are at risk of extinction. So they end up reluctantly asking the federation for help multiple times and slowly will become a part of the federation. Show the cultural changes and clashes that come from joining the federation.
Set between the TOS movies and TNG. Federation becoming so pussified by lack of conflict with klinks and roms that some faggots like the Cardassians are something of a moderate threat. Maybe have a young O'Brien and/or Janeway show up for an ep.
the borg get most of the federation addicted to 18th century grade Opium from north china.
Set it post-Voyager, and have then explore more space with another Enterprise and another crew. Maybe have them go to a different galaxy, maybe not, it doesn't really matter. Exploding bridge consoles, heavy-handed moralizing and social commentary, and hot alien women are all mandatory.

into darkness reeked of shite anon.
get some taste before you try to insult me.
only Bill Shatner can save star trek at this point in time.
reboot the timeline and bring back the remaning original cast for the mega star trek ending.
Then let it fucking die and do what Roddenberry did and make up NEW ideas.
Hollywood and its deluded man child fans are tainting the collective unconscious.
Follow an alien ship or a 'badguy' ship with a few humans on it and get their point of view.
Maybe the political landscape has changed a lot and the Romulans are actually going to enter the federation, so we get to follow a Romulan captain and his/her human crewmates transferred about like Worf.
You could keep it reasonably aligned with Roddenberry's vision by having the overall arc explore the process of transferring from 'Romulan' morality to 'Federation' morality, and whether this transfer was actually a good move at all.
Any kind of 'alien ship' gimmick might get old quickly, but it seems like a good opportunity considering they have already gone 'le female captain' and 'le black captain'.
>>67392025
scratch my asshole please
100 or so years after DS9/Voy..
The Federation's people are still scared from the whole Alpha/Gamma war. think how we are with WW2. It is all about moving on and allowing the past to stay there. Captain is a old fuck trill who lived though the war. he would die in the first season.

They don't need to fill some diversity clause for the series to continue, and it's not a fantasy series. The endless number of ideas still exist and since it's an established "universe" it gives it a better chance to succeed, when done right.
Dare you to make an intelligent post without a subconscious need to type the words faggot or fucking.

Also, second question.. which medications are you taking? Is being in your 30s and still with the parents tough or expected?
>>67385816
The federation is starting to disintegrate. It has lost its utipian vision.
The starship is an experimental duper warship, which heralds the federations desscent into a dark age of aggression and mistrust. Their mission is to enforce the federations diplomacy on errant wirkds.
The captain is a pacifist but the first officer is a militant.

Yes, for someone who lived through the Nixon administration. Watching it today is like watching a high school play with good acting and decent writing.
>>67393418
>modern shows /films are for retarded man-children. You cant be serious when you say the recent shows are good ?
I agree much of modern shows/films are for man-children, but that clearly is what you are since you've got to be in your thirties and throwing a girlish temper-tantrum or pretending to (either way, it's fitting for that appellation).
Define "recent shows?
Voyager was decent but it also when off the air 16 years ago. DS9 was before my time and I still think it was brutally bad the first 2 seasons.
ENT could've been great had it been cast better and not so poorly timed. The studios rushed on a franchise that needed time off.

I like the idea of the captain being an opium addict , or even on depression medication from all the stress of captaining a federation starship in the unknown brutal depths of space and time.
Most Star Trek fans or should I say a large chunk of fans will be on some sort of medication for depression , also most politians are on some sort of narcotic , uppers speed etc to help them focus after long haul flights , needing to look his or hers best all day long .
So a captain on opium is not that far fetched .

who's the drug - induced weirdo that keeps spamming this thread? All i'm reading are stupid suggestions
Favorite episodes are the ones with the strange/godlike/mysterious entities and weird shit happening. The ones where they truly are at the final frontier.
A non starfleet captain and crew are the main focus. They are kinda dodgy, maybe pirates or traders Due to circumstances a disgraced (wrongfully) starfleet captain joins the team as first officer and they go around trying to uncover the corruption that's infesting the federation. They are hunted by regular starfleet who don't know about the situation and aided by a mcguffin that let's them jump instantly to any place in the universe. Said mcguffin is sought by corrupted starfleet officers. The crew slowly come around to being good and helping despite the lack of profit.

Make an adult version of Han Solos drug deals , but set in the Star Trek galaxy , also the Borg having assimilated the predator and the alien .
Also the time continuum collapses and mega merges with the Star Wars universe , so Jedi fight Borg predators and Borg aliens , man child's heads would explode with excitement .
>>67401862
That would be amazing , also transformers should be involved and Borg could assimilate transformers but also there would be independent transformers fighting and what if ninja turtles showed up too , one could turn into a Borg , probably Raph , and he could fight a Jedi who is backed by a Transformer and the fast and furious crew could be involved in some way too

>>67401783
I agree, I think her character arc would be a bit more powerful than Kira's was, but her joining the Maquis wasn't a horrible ending to her story either. I think it did a good job of voicing the frustration citizens had with the federation and it's tactics.
>>67402472
My argument will always be for acting. I think it took a LONG time, like Season 3-4ish at least before Nana was even close to fleshing out Kira.
Duet was only memorable because of the Cardassian actor.
Not saying she was BAD, but her scenes seemed very ham fisted in the first half of the show.
Michelle was an overall more believable and better actor and I think having a back story would have given her a chance amongst the fans to become a beloved all-timer. The entire Bajoran occupation storyline felt really forced and I think it's because the main focal point of it was a not so great actor who was burdened with being a good portion of that storyline.
>>67403009
The occupation was brought up a lot but never reslly had an impact. Writen by people who dont understand occupation. They should have done more research, then it ciuld have been more imoactful and believeable
stop bumping this shit star trek is for nerds
>>67403573
I am a bit of nerd, not gonna lie
>>67403009
As >>67403146 said, I never felt a real connection to the occupation with Kira. Ro felt like someone who's personality and childhood was actually affected by an occupation. Kira's bitterness always felt second-hand.
>>67403878
I wonder how much was because the writing or the actress. Ro was tough as nails and you could buy it, Kira was tough as nail, or was supposed to be but i never bought it.

>>67404031
It may be the fact that Ro was a minor character and they poured all their writing abilities into a handful of episodes. Dragging out a couple interesting character points over 176 episodes could have made her character less impactful. But I do agree that Forbes may be a better actress than Nana. Nana's emotional scenes were full of corny crying.
How about a show about
The voyages of the starship Enterprise. Her continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.
This is literally the basis for any and everything they want to do.
Ensure the captain is it least in their 40's. The rest will fall into place imo

I'd make it a sci-fi anthology series with Q as a Cryptkeeper like narrator and do a bunch of small stories from the perspectives of different races/worlds or, at the very least, different ships and crews.
>>67385816
Set some 100 years after TNG, after some terrible conflict with a too powerful enemy (Borg, Species 8472) the Federation is a shadow of it's former self. Earth has been occupied and abandoned to invading forces. The Vulcans have cut off contact and retreated into the far corners of the galaxy after losing the war with us. Klingons/Romulans are the de-facto superpowers now. The formal Federation is but one of several factioned cells of what remains of the fleet. The show is centered around the crew of the Federation's last flagship. Their long-term mission: reestablish contact with the Vulcans and protect the final Federation worlds from falling to the enemy.
Have the evil Trek universe invade the good one.
>mfw watching Threshold for the first time right now
The episode's pretty good at this point. I know he turns into a salamander or something at some point, but it's a great look at Tom's character so far. Also, hitting transwarp is fucking cool.
>>67407268
>tfw this is one of the plots in STO right now
>>67408174
Okay, followup post
What the FUCK is with Brannon Braga and his inability to understand basic evolution? First Genesis (TNG) and now THIS?! Genesis is still much worse, but damn, this guy is retarded. That said, ignoring the asinine salamander part, I'd say this was a great episode. You learn a lot about Tom Paris and it's a landmark in Federation history. Why does everyone who shits on VOY bring this episode up and ignore TNG's Genesis?
>>67403878
Ro didn't grow up in the occupation. Her family escaped and she grew up in a refugee camp.
>Ro fans in charge of paying attention
>>67408978
Because it's the perfect example of why VOY is bad:
Neat stuff happens, groundbreaking stuff, but there are literally no consequences, or even a bit of follow-up.
>hey, we can go literally anywhere in the universe, and can control the process pretty easily
>it turns us into newts though
>even though we can get better, it's best just to throw the tech away
>>67408978
This episode is worse because: They find a cure for Paris and Janeway.
So, now that they have a transwarp engine AND a cure for hyper-evolution...
Why don't they just go home?
Why does the series continue to exist after this episode?
>>67408174

They explained that they couldn't control where they would end up. It would be more dangerous for them to end up in some other galaxy or in the middle of a sun. I agree that they should have researched it more, but I'm guessing the risks were too much for Janeway.
>>67409879
Except that Paris has no trouble at all going exactly where he wanted to go. He wanted a planet with a suitable environment to raise his children, and he found one instantly.
So control was not an issue.
