Star Trek: Renegades - Directed by TIM RUSS

[DANLAV05]

Basically another independent project from the makers Of Gods And Men, but set in the 24th Century. Big announcement a week yesterday apparantly.

Apart from a short piece on Trekweb I'm shocked there's not more out there on this!

Appears to be Kickstarter project....

I enjoyed their previous project, OF GODS AND MEN.

I wish them the best of luck and look forward to more updates.

 

[DominicCobb]

Ho shit, Chekov.

 

[bionicbob]

ADMIRAL Chekvo!!!!

 

[Gaith]

Doesn't the whole making-money Kickstarter model kinda fly in the face of no-profit fan film copyright issues?

 

[Rogue-theX]

Chekov looks like Cmdr. Tigh.

Some new trailers. Principal photography wrapped in October. Just judging by the trailer, the productive values appear to be vastly improved since OF GODS AND MEN.

Looks like this production is moving closer to completion, as they release their official music video featuring many scenes from the movie... looks really good!!!

 

[Vultural]

Cautiously optimistic.

Here is the latest trailer. At least I think it's the latest. [video=youtube_share;OjeX5drV9ms]

Looks amazing! Though not sure if I like the new Starfleet uniforms...lol. But really, this fan production looks equal to any tv professional project. And it also shows the Prime Universe is not dead, and that there are so many different kinds of story that can still be told. Very excited for the official release.

From the early stuff, I was pretty much expecting this to be the Chekov Show about Chekov, with Tuvok as the sidekick, but more and more this looks like a launching pad for an all-new team. I guess Sky Conway is getting in on the pitch-ideas-to-CBS action of the past few years!

(It's kinda too bad. I mostly wanted to watch Chekov, honestly. )

 

[bionicbob]

So Renegades is now available. Though the $60 buck "donation" price seems steep to me. I was all excited to see this but now...? Maybe I am getting cheap in my old age...lol

[Neuros]

Having seen the preview version a couple of months ago - I can't say it's worth $60...

 

[asterixsmeagol]

How are they allowed to charge for this? Doesn't that violate Paramount/CBS's copyrights since?

 

[Uncanny Antman]

It'll be free before too long. Just hang in there.

 

[Captain Khajiit]

Having seen the preview version a couple of months ago - I can't say it's worth $60...

I should refuse to pay that for any commercial release (of a single film).

The trailer does look good though. Like Bob, I don't like the uniforms much.

 

[bionicbob]

Here's a fairly negative review.... lol. Now I really want to see it!!!!! :lol:
