Okay, Star Trek: The Next Generation is over 20 years old. Presume for just a moment that a reboot was being done of it after the new movie. Who would you cast in place of the original cast?

By the way, I really don't know if I care about this topic at all, I just wanted to start a thread about something original and said, "hey, if I pick something that has been done before about something that has been done before in a way that is being redone now, it'll be totally original!"

Is he whiney enough? Or nearly annoying enough? I mean he is good, but that would be work to get there!

Why reboot what doesn't need rebooting??

It's fine as is. Hollywood needs to look forward, not backward. :roll:

I just figured he gets a comparable level of hatred and contempt from the sci-fi fans. Seemed like a good fit.

Alternate option if Christensen is not available: the CGI'd image of Jar Jar Binks.

Jake Lloyd is probably the right age, now that I think of it.

But look at it this way -- Wil Wheaton was liked before TNG by virtue of his performance in Stand By Me.

Wil Wheaton is great these days, too. His online writings are hi-larious.

Monk is really fucking good at this sort of thing.

This is why he gets to sleep on my couch sometimes.

Can't you use asterisks when you swear? It's so uncouth not to. Class up.
