gaggle64 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 So, is this a spoof-Star Trek project or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokhed00 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 So, is this a spoof-Star Trek project or what? Looks to be serious, just look at the people involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I'm not normally into not official stuff, but i've watched and enjoyed New Voyages, so i'll give this a try I suppose. EDIT- The trailer looks rather good. Awesome looking CGI work, and Garry Graham! He was great as Soval. He needs to be more well known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 At least the actors know what us Trek fans want. A darker version of trek, set in a different universe, with familiar faces. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 new voyages? http://www.newvoyages.com/ Fan-made sequel to The Original Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Obviously that Of Gods and Men is supposed to be intentionally cheesy but I think its a bit too much for my tastes so i'll stick with normal trek. Just watching the DS9 pilot as im typing this, I really cant stand Avery Brooks acting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konfucius Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I'm totally excited for this project. There are so many well known ST actors in it and Tim Russ is directing. I think he also directed some Episodes of Voyager so he should bring enough experience to this project. The Trailer looks very promising and has a lot of substance to it. I'm also glad they got the sets from New Voyages because it wouldn't look that convincing if everything was made on a blue-screen (--> Hidden Frontier).

Happenstance Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I havent got around to seeing one of those remastered versions yet, I really should. Hopefully the Sci-Fi channel over here will actually start airing them at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the Sci-Fi channel over here will actually start airing them at some point. They are ace. Only a few scenes have different camera angles, but other than that (and fixing common problems like phasers) it's mostly similar, bar visual upgrades (backrounds, ships, planets, etc). It's the most faithful remastering so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokhed00 Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Isn't there some new Star Trek magazine with a free DVD with the remastered versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Isn't there some new Star Trek magazine with a free DVD with the remastered versions? It's the original remastered versions (the ones on Sci-Fi- basically the DVD is the original ones with a cleaned up-image. Other than that, no changes (so, no CGI, no new backgrounds, no HD, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 well used to watch star trek loads when I was a kid have kind of grown out if but watched this, was kinda funny, lack of budget is obvious. like the comms woman from TOS (uhrua or something really can't remember) acting like some kind of oracle, but one thing the matrix music made it seem cheesier rather than tense!
