Sorry, that was a typo on my part. I meant to say the networks and the celebrities(who have thoughts of committing such a useless experiment)should take their cues from those like the late Stanley Kubrick and Harrison Ford.
I think I found it. I think they are hiding it in the top of a building in Shenzhen China. Check out this picture. I would swear its a starship docked in a space port. http://lettersfromitia.wordpress.com/2011/03/05/shenzhen-china-the-new-playground-for-architects/
[LEFT] While y'all are talking about celebrities, Cutty has a thought about Act 4...but clearly no one's interested in that. [/LEFT]
Yeah, I designed most of Cutty's station. Since I used to do video game design, including starship controls for some space combat simulations, I designed them to actually be functional.
Very nice Maurice!!! We will take Act IV one frame or scean at a time. Thank you for your efforts to make and finish this esipode. Looking forward to seeing the completed episode.
Well I'm interested! My mind is aglow with whirling, transient nodes of thought careening through a cosmic vapor of invention over what that picture might mean!
OTOH, neither Gibson nor Sheen has shot any friends in the face and gotten away scott free. As far as we know.
Agreed. Everytime I hear the argument that the original Enterprise wouldn't stand up to scrutiny on the big screen, all I have to do is look to fan films to know how wrong that assessment is.
The fan film set has not been built that wouldn't be laughed off of the big screen, sorry - no matter how cool the retro graphics are. Fans already buy into TOS, so of course they'll be pleased if the old designs are rendered well. Trek fans are not anyone's target audience at the multiplex, so the assessment that these things "wouldn't stand up" is the correct one.
My point was: these fan films are very impressive with little to no money. A big time director with a $150 million dollar budget could make those 60's designs shine.
