TOS had an amazing run spanning Generations, and is still one of the most poopular science fiction franchises of all time. The movies were mostly spectacular and very entertainining. They handed off the torch to TNG in a perfect way, I think. Next Generation was perfect, with the obvious exception of the last movie which was a bigger dissapointment since the Roman Republic (why did it have to become an empire!?). I could take another TNG movie, if they could make sure to dip the writers of the last movie in boiling acid in preproduction....of course the dead Data bell can't really be unrung, even in the case of B4, so it wouldn't be the same. I loved DS9, but I felt like it ran it's course, so making a movie would only be like another Nemesis). I never really liked Voyager. There was something stale about it, even durring the last episode. I'd love Enterprise movie, as it was killed off before it's time, but I doubt the show had the following to warrent a major motion picture (it's called showBUSINESS, afer all).
That only really leaves me the option of creating a new crew, new situation, and hiring a proven writer/director/producer/scifi nut...like J.J. Abrams.
