    Mormons with a starship?

    Do you want bugs to drop a rock on Buenos Aires? Because that’s how you get bugs to drop a rock on Buenos Aires.

    Related: I just spent 2 weeks doing a fanedit of STV. I will die on the hill that the plot is good if you can get around most of the silly humor of Shatner (which obviously I removed), as well as most of the weird shit between Scotty and Uhura.

    At the core, it is a sweeping critique of religion and charlatanism. Larry Luckenbill as Sybok is one of the great performances in all of Trekdom.

        I haven’t figured out distribution yet but you can bet I’ll be sharing with the community here (even if only for discussion).

        Some of my favorite edits are actually in discussions between Kirk, Spock, and Bones. In one scene Bones has weird jokes that don’t really fit the tone of Spock’s exposition. It was a challenge to get around them, but I think I did it quite successfully, and it adds some needed gravitas to those portions.

        Anyway, yes – it’ll be available somehow.
