    nobody, it'd be the same travesty that "Space action movie Trek" was.
    O'Brien: Cillian Murphy

    Definitely not, he's to wierd and creepy for that role. Perfect delusional megalomaniac bad guy though

    Ah he actually comes across quite charming in some roles, he's just been typecast I think.

    We obviously disagree on Trek 11. I thought it was the adrenaline boost to the heart that the franchise needed and deserved. Compare 1 and 2 and you'll see the same transformation, perhaps at a much smaller scale.

    As a hardcore Trekkie fan I was actually pleasantly surprised by how good the Star Trek movie was.

    Good point. He'd be perfect for the role of Q :pac:

    Either his style of character from Eureka or Big Bang

    Shia Laboeuf as Wesley Crusher - just when you thought he couldn't be more unsufferable

    Re Data: The guy who played/plays Loki in Thor/The Avengers would be a stick on imo

    Come to think of it Cillian Murphy would make a great Data.

    The guy from nemesis is Tom Harding. Does not have the commanding voice to pull that off. Great actor but does not have the gravitas.

    Mark Strong as Picard FTW

    Clint is older than Patrick! Is this a realistic possibility a new TNG reboot? I think there really was only one good TNG film-First contact but I really would like to see them try again but I dont see it happening. Original Star Trek has wider resonance with the general population. Even Trek Pop.

    In the 24th century ageism has been eliminated...Even in his prime Clint was on the total opposite end of the spectrum to Patrick Stewart - the former is rough and tough while the latter plays Picard as more of a renaissance man.

    I liked first contact as a movie but it led to the whole Voyager decline of the Borg thing which severly sets off my nerd rage!!!
