OT: Now for something a bit different...
 

I just stumbled across this, and thought I'd pass it along here, to see what you all think.

Maybe even with a wink or two in <font color="red">AT</font>'s direction...

Hey that looks very interesting. A lot of people had to put up some serious $$ to produce this flick. Hopefully it will inspire Paramount/CBS/ViCom to get off their asses.

Thanks BK.

I think it's a joke. Or at least, I hope to God it is.

Trailer - Directed by Tim Russ - Starring some very familiar faces.

It doesn't appear to be a joke. Besides, what the hell, its about time we started to see some fan produced / well acted / low budge / made for web videos of star trek stories.

I thought it was an interesting concept. I look forward to seeing more.

This looks good. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif It seems to be real and there's a wikipedia entry:

I got the impression that the trailor is is a political statement by actors, directors, and creators that want to try to influence others.

Wade... what the hell man, what the hell?

Interesting.

They mentioned terrorists in one passing line, so clearly the whole thing is just a huge political statement about Iraq. Certainly not an actual attempt at a "fan" movie.

Ahem... I find it difficult to think of it as a "fan" movie when it has a bunch of real actors in it (that were in ST no less!). Heh.

It looked like that was all part of the mirror universe. I always thought that would make a great series.
