Gaffer Tape said:I just don't see any point for Star Wars or Star Trek to continue. Star Wars had two amazing movies, one good one, and three debatable ones, tons of novels and video games. After the prequel trilogy, there's really nothing else to do.
Just because I don't like the new things doesn't mean that I hate Star Wars and Star Trek. I just love them enough to believe that they should be given the dignified chance to end.
i mentioned in another thread that the Star Wars franchise has generated over US$20 billion
dollars... i'm not sure how much the Trek series has.
but there's no way you're going to stop something with that much financial momentum..
unless peoples interest go away like they did in the late 80's-late 90's..(but even then
there was still merchandise)..
will the new tv show, and live action show coming out, books, comics, action figures, etc
for star wars... i doubt it will EVER end......
trek, i'm not so sure about, they've done a pretty good job of killing off interest in the
series ever since they went overboard with all the spinoffs.. if 'enterprise' hadn't been
cancelled maybe there would be more fans? but i think this new movie is the last gasp
of the trek series..... its possible it might come to an end (but not the merchandise though)...
later
