Wohoo! It's here!

No, not the movie but the trailer. And that's very good indeed :nod:

http://www.starwreck.com/

And for those who ask what the hell is Star Wreck (:eek2: ), I give you the answer.

Star Wreck is a comedy/parody series made by a bunch of finnish students. It started as a Trek parody with pretty primitive 3d-animations and cartoons. Nonetheless, the first 4 "movies" were hilarious. But Star Wreck 4 1/2 and 5 introduced actors. Yeah, they might be amateurs, and yeah, the effects aren't that good at today's standards. But I was laughing all the time to the antics of Captain James B. Pirk and his retarded crew.

Now, after years of waiting, the end is near. These guys are going to release a full 2 hour movie. And without doubt, they are going to raise the level of fan made independent films to a totally new level.

See for youself. If nothing else blows you away, at least the space battles should drop your jaw through the floor ;)

"Finnish". Get it right. :p
Never cared much about Wreck myself but I will watch the movie when it's out, not going to bother with the trailer though.

Yeah. The graphics are worth the download even if you don't find it funny (and I found it fairly amusing)

This should be worth seeing when they "Finnish" it :lol:

As an ex-Trekkie whose Trekkie-ness dwindled rapidly when I stopped having time to read the books, I've got to check this out.

For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well.

I wonder how many people on these forums are Trekkies who have been disillusioned by Voyager/Enterprise.....

<--Loathes most Sci-Fi. Weird. Though the one thing I did like about the original series of 'trek is that it never took itself too seriously.

I was never quite a trekkie but voyager/enterprise (especially voyager) have done a lot to spoil my enjoyment of trek. To be honest DS9 started it though. The first season was very poor and although it picked up towards the end DS9 was the first series I stopped watching.

My Trekkieness was limited primarily to the movies and the books - we haven't had a TV since I was 10 years old (1989), so I haven't been able to watch the episodes of any particular ST series.

First Conatact is the best ST movie! Nemesis sucks!

The Next Generation is the best series!(Picard Rulez!!)
Voyager sucks heavily. Enerpreise is...mediocre.

I liked Voyager, and Enterprise looked...somewhat cool, only watched most of the first season.

ST: TNG was good, although...too much stuff to do with time travel, and time loops and plot holes and loop holes and...stuff that has to deal with Klingons...

Meh, haven't seen the trailer, and probably won't...damn 56k...

Never mind. I got it.

That was pretty funny, but I'm hoping Pirk loses in the end. Babel 13 must triumph! ;)

Ahhh, I was almost hoping they'd released the full thing - seems we've all been waiting an eternity. ;) But it'll be worth it, I expect. SW1-5 have provided me hours of enjoyment. :D
