Default 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 AT'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. 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.

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.

*sheathes the saber of sarcasm*

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.
