/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

The plot is ok. The actors feel forced. Spock's makeup is ridiculous. It was cool to see Rand in a promoted position. The idea of a Captain Sulu is cool. There are some nice CGI space scenes (which I think the entire budget went towards). Overall it is very mid, and that is only if you love Trek very much. Despite the names involved, this might have been the hardest to watch "pilot" I've ever seen. I'm sharing this because of the archival aspects in doing so. But, seriously, don't watch this without at least 2 beers and 2 tokes.

Editing to add that we need Alana Sulu as portrayed by that actress. She's great.

I've been aware of this for a while, but never sat down to watch it. I just watched it in full just now. I very much enjoyed it! Yes, there were some rough spots (like Spock's makeup), but it's a fan-made project. They'll never have the resources to do it like a full production studio. It was seriously very impressive! Having Takei and Berrett involved make it even better.
