ok, should be finished uploading in about an hour..i just finished watching it. i thought it was really good for a fan film. , the u.s.s archer looked like the new resolute skin, and i would love to see the icarus as a heavy escort. cryptic could take some pointers from their ship designs. it reminded me of a mix between star trek/firefly/killjoys. the uniforms were like an updated TOS style, which i thought was kinda cheesey.
edit: you-kick-my-dog: pm'd you link to my dropbox

Just finished the full movie acting is still pretty bad and the end basically made it so their was no real consequence to the show but their is a lot of promise in a property like this. Its a new kind of star Trek .... personally I'm waiting for star trek horizon to come out in the winter as that looks pretty good. All in all worth a watch.
The ships looked well done particularly the Archer I was actually thinking it looked like a guardian if the neck was reduced. Would love to see a renagade option as a faction in sto i think that would spice up play a bit

yeah, the acting was bad...but i took it with a grain of fan made salt. tim russ directed it too, he directed many eps of ds9 and voyager...can you find a reference to any episode/mention of portal being sent back 300 years in the canon? i cant figure out wth they are talking about. the vfx artist did the ships pretty well, they raised about $30k to do it just for vfx..it was all kickstart equivalant funded.

Yea can't find a 300 year reference anywhere nor what was around before the federation....kinda ruined the plot for me..that and the fact khan never had a daughter erked the shit out of me...oh and zimmerman had gray hair in Voyager...this is years after voyager returned and now his hair is hardly gray...very annoyed fan made or not too many continuity errors. The echeb story line made a lot of sense though. Oh and the god awful slow motion scenes I was like this pilot had no chance......you have failed us Tovok!

ya, i was hoping for better. it tried to be too much like gritty spaceship crew i.e. firefly/killjoys. and the background sets were like some warped federation lsd trip. also, on the subject of the doctor, his girlfriend apparantly had some reason for her to have a holo matrix over her 26/7, but never said what happened to her, only that the doctor was going to help her repair it cause she still couldnt live with "it". im guessing it had something to do with the accident that got her banned, maybe bad burns? anyhow, just another on the long list.
also, 300 years ago would be 2083, cochranes warp flight was in 2063...so more or less 20 years after first contact...if they abide by the official timeline, which im sure they dont.

Safe bet they just wrote this and gave it no credence to continuity or characterization which was the films biggest sin i didnt connect to any of these characters. On another charater note they royally fucked up on the breen sound effect.....unless he was supose to sound like he had a severe speed addiction......JJ's movies are actually better....
Its a real shame because i was expecting something really nice out of Tim Russ and instead we got an unpolished mashed together pilot.
Start trek horizon looks somewhat decent im hoping that will be worth it,
