I assume that the reason for there being no news about a new Trek movie is
because it's a dead issue. Until Paramount gets religion and removes Berman
and Co. from the picture, don't hold your breath. It could be a while.

All R.B. ever talks about when he's talking about Star Trek is hooking
Enterprise up with the original series. Not very "original" is it. Not very
entertaining either.

Like any other film, it would all be in the telling. If TPTB handle
the "bridge" film the same way they handled the ENT series, I agree
with your assessment. If they put the 75% or so of ENT that was
sub-par tripe and work on writing a good story then the story's
setting has potential.
