Gene Roddenberry was a Notorious Peacemonger


I am somewhat of a Trekkie having grown up watching the original series in syndication and watching each of the Paramount movies as they were released. I love the pseudoscience, the characters and the story lines of most of the series and I even watched some of the spin offs from time to time. However I never attended a convention or have ever gotten dressed up in full federation regalia to masturbate to Jeri Ryan, Nana Visitor or worse Marina Sirtis. One thing I and all of the more hard core fans can agree on though, is Star Trek needs more battles! Roddenberry always championed the human effort as a whole and promoted peace through diplomacy rather than war or conquest. All I am asking, now that he has been dead for over a decade (1991) that Paramount, it's writers and directors, finally give the fans what they want.
Forget about interpersonal relationship crisis's , politically correct anecdotes of social equality and space exploration in to unknown parts, only to find another new gay species whose ass we will have to kiss. I want to see all out space and ground battles complete with gore, violence and full frontal female nudity, where appropriate. Think "Saving Private Ryan" mixed with the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" with a touch of "Aliens" and "Barbarella." Most fans forget what the "Neutral Zone" is all about. It is not unlike contemporary DMZ's the world over. You don't get the "Neutral Zone" outside of all out war and the subsequent peace treaty. Let's see that war from the Klingon warrior race against the federation and its allies. How about an hour and a half film with two 15-20 minute all out space battles, a couple of all out hand to hand ground incursions and maybe some kind of weak plot thrown in for good measure. I want to see explosions, entrails, with tits and fists flying everywhere like God intended movies for Men to be!
