   >> Know what Paramount should do? They should comission a series of ten   
   limited budget Trek films by different well known directors, and run them as a   
   miniseries on television. Just let the directors do whatever stories they   
   wanted to do. They could put    
   the Trek special effects team at the disposal of the different directors as   
   their films came up, so all the films would have a nice, uniform look and   
   feel. It would be fascinating to see what fresh minds would do with the Trek   
   universe

   A worthy list, noteworthy for its randomness. Let me see if I can   
   come up with a list of my own that is equally irrelevant. Now   
   watch, as I gather ten directors into my shining silver net.   
      
   1) Chris Carter: "The Third Moon"   
   2) Joss Whedon: "Rebirth of the Federation"   
   3) Peter Jackson: "Attack from Andromeda"   
   4) Brian DePalma: "Their Myriad Wicked Ways"   
   5) Wes Craven: "Light of a Dark Sun"   
   6) John Carpenter: "Landrew Returns"   
   7) James Cameron: "Space Eaters"   
   8) Michael Mann: "The Farpoint Affair"   
   9) Ron Howard: "Klingons Do Cry"   
   10) Terry Gilliam: "The End of Everything"
