We'd get Titans staring at eachother in heavy TiDi, until one activates its doomsday quicker than the others.

You have to admit it would make for some good scenes.

Beyond that, there wouldnt be any hint of a meta, JJ has openly stated on his involvement with star trek and the new star wars that he hates things that are too intellectual, or make you think about whats going on. His whole purpose with the star trek remakes was to turn it into something more funsplosion than trek, because he hated deep story, preferring faster-paced "action/adventure" types.

So if he did the TV show, it would be all of 12 episodes long, and just focus on nameless nobodies making pretty explosions for no clearly defined or overarching reason, just disconnected episode by episode meaningless fights.

very few of the fights worth watching or writing a story/show about though.

If theyre going to start writing episodes about random fights in lowsec re-enacted by underpaid actors, then they may as well just put the money into bringing back the old "Kicked in the nuts" show

I'm not sure that you can consider the new Star Trek movies to be any less intellectual than the original Star Trek series, or rather that you can argue that the original series was more intellectual than the recent remakes. You're not seriously arguing that fornicating with blue aliens in episode one, and then fornicating with red aliens in episode two, and then fornicating with blue AND red aliens in episode three is actually an attempt at social commentary, right? Shatner is a good looking guy and all, but him having his shirt off while fighting a rock monster is not an attempt at allegory reflecting on Cold War tensions between the US and the USSR.

That said, I'd also not want GRR Martin writing anything for an EvE TV series. It'd be loaded with incestuous relationships and all of the characters not involved in such relationships would be killed off.

As much as I love George and his work, he is an epic procrastinator. One might dare say say he wrote the book on procrastination, but he never got around to finishing it.

Come on guys.. if Eve is going to have a TV show, then its going to be done DragonballZ style.




5mins equal 20 some odd episodes.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Django Unchained they could all work.

Minmitar Unchained would be good to see.

No no - have J.J. Abrams involved, get the cool ass story, remove him before he gets someone everyone likes killed, then leave the rest to James Cameron/Ridley Scott.


Cloning means you can never really kill off someone you like so its great for him, he can murder everyone and nobody will mind :P
