BlackScorpion 0 Posted October 7, 2005 OK, this might be too OT for OT but here we go... Star Wreck site Wikipedia page about Star Wreck It's a Finnish made, low budget but rather high quality, full lenght (103 mins) parody-fan film of Star Trek and Babylon 5. Over half a million people have seen it in a week... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

der bastler 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Downloaded it yesterday. My torrent is up and running, if you want to download it pretty fast. And stay tuned for this German fan production: Tydirium -- The True Story http://www.tydirium.tv/index.php What comes next? Perhaps an Operation Flashpoint fan film?

Ares1978 0 Posted October 10, 2005 That movie is fcuking hilarious!!! Probably best spoof ever! Â You said it. Â The effects were better than in most Hollywood movies and overacting (even when it is unintentional) is just something that makes a parody slightly better. The only thing that bothered me, was that 99% of the actors seemed to be about 20-25 years old. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EiZei 0 Posted October 10, 2005 The only thing that bothered me, was that 99% of the actors seemed to be about 20-25 years old. Since technically most people in that movie were "military" personnel it would be more realistic than in your average hollywood movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

h - 169 Posted October 11, 2005 Just watched it. All I can say that it is the best Finnish sci-fi movie ever made... Not too many made though, but still.. The 3D battles are very well done... If you wouldn't know you could think you were watching the new Galactica series... Many of the 3D sets however are quite horrible and the 'keying' is not that good but as they haven't had huge budget that's no wonder.. Also the idiots responsible for the 3D stuff in shows like Babylon 5 and Lexxx (or how many x's it had...) should learn from this how the things should be done... The people playing the 'P-Liitto' seemed to lack seriously in acting talent compared to the others, but i guess that was deliberate... I know a few people who won't even watch it because it's not a 'serious' sci-fi movie (and what the hell that would be.. )... I myself am not a sci-fi fan, there are only a handfull of sci-fi movies/series I can watch without puking, so I probably missed many jokes on this one...

Eda Mrcoch 0 Posted October 11, 2005 I was a bit sceptical at first, but this is GREAT! It only pisses me that I can't understand Finnish and I'm not quite acquainted with ST/B5 universe so probably I missed a lot of jokes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
