If you have been on the internet at all over the last year you might have seen the Indiegogo campaign for Star Trek: Axanar. If not, here is the link:

It takes a bit of Star Trek lore, the war between the Klingon Empire and the Federation and talks about the pivotal battle that won the war. The Battle of Axanar and the Captain of that battle, Garth of Izar, were detailed in the Original Series episode "Whom the Gods Destroy".
This though is several orders of magnitude beyond what the Original Series could do in effects and a better story than we have seen in the theatres in a long time.
Here is the first part, done as documentary.
The full movie plans to be even better.
Here is a teaser trailer for the movie with a bit more background on what is going on.
Frankly this looks so good and "feels" like Star Trek.
Plus Tony Todd shouting "I DO NOT FEAR THE KLINGON EMPIRE!"... I mean come on.
That has got to be worth some of your dollars.

That does look really good. Very excited to have something like this coming out for Star Trek.
ReplyDeleteI'm not that big into Star Trek but I agree that this looks good!
