Well fanfic takes a step up. Here is a snippet from the 2240's about 2 decades before Kirks time.

That's a genuinely impressive project. A 20 minute trailer with actual professional actors? Shocked

However, I strongly suspect that it's too impressive and professional.

"Star Trek" is a licensed property of CBS and so they have the final say in any Star Trek venture.


Damn skippy. I have an ethical issues with giving money to lawyers.

Having got the time to actually watch this all the way through, all I can say is...

<speechless>

The writer/directors Alec Peters and Christian Gossett are my people. This is my canon. These are Historical Documents.

There's even what I strongly suspect is a nod to the Klingon[*] axiom that the only valid test is combat, the only valid result is victory.

Very well done but I never thought I'd hear a nasal-sounding Vulcan. Anyone else spot the Enterprise?

Well, I've now watched this three times, inflicted on Mrs Borg and Master Borglet as a flimsy excuse.

I am now half convinced that I'm actually in some fevered fugue state at a convention, mind melding with a room full of hard core Trekkers who are trying to boldy and collectively visualise the most canonical fanfic film of which we can conceive.

I will nail my colours to the mast with a self-sealing stem bolt, and say that this is the best proper Trek since DS9. In that, I include and dismiss all the following TV frippery, and the J J Lensflare follies.

From beyond the galactic barrier, I hear Gene Roddenberry whispering "Preserve my legacy. Make it so."

The Borglets' university savings are being invested in the next round of funding. They'll thank me for it in 30 or 40 years.

If you're going to start this, you better be ready to finish it.

I think the main thing is that they have permission to make the film but it has to be not for profit or something along those lines.

Look up Star Trek: Renegades which is along similar lines.

What makes you think that?

Renegades (which doesn't interest me) is being pitched to CBS as a series, to be funded, produced and owned by them. Very different proposition.

Never been a massive Star Trek fan but that was impressive. I'd happily watch a movie about it rather than a documentary style one.

Young Master Borg hates Star Trek, but even he sat and watched that for 20 minutes, totally engrossed.

Nice to see the actor who played Gen. Martok in DS9 make an appearance. Strange hearing the voice, but not seeing the ridges...

Also that creepy black dude...

Looks promising! Very Happy

That's not entirely true, there are other prizes which would be acceptable to the Renegades crew.

No, it's 100% true, it really doesn't interest me. https://emoticons4all.narod.ru/s/icon_spock.gif
