If You Created a Cheap Star Trek Knockoff...

Right down to the pop-up photon torpedo turrets, all the non-Ares ships in Axanar are the non-Enterprise ships from the fleet sent to Vulcan in 2009 Star Trek, with slightly different nacelles.

 

Personally I’d call it something like Antares Union or some such thing and originate it in a G-class planet in the system (where G stands for Goldilocks). From there I’d just mimic the elements of Star Trek except in most likely hood I’d change the politics and symbol representation of alien races.

On a more humorous note, I could always mix Star Trek with the book Chariot of the Gods and call it Stargate. Whoops, too late.

 

The uniforms were for the Ares crew. The bridge was Ok. The rest is in step with Discovery, a war with the Klingons, violence, darkness, and death. Plus using the Kelvin ship designs.

The fanfic will be closer to the spirit because fandom cannot move on. Star Trek has always moved on. Fans do not.

 

Melding together parts from dissimilar models would create a kit bash.

This is how the Yeager class was created.

Let contestants-kids-devise their own ships. Supply them with glue and a variety of plastic model kits.

I call it star system 5
Cast as much trek alumni as possible have a q type charector and mudd one as well.

 

Nobody has. Because Peters never fucking finished it, despite taking over half a million dollars in crowdfunding from his backers.

 

I thought the commonly quoted total was 1.4 million?

 

I went with the figure cited on his Memory Alpha entry. If it's incorrect, take it up with them.

 

Star Track: The Anaxar Dilemma

 

That's a wiki that be edited by anyone. I tend to go a factually checked source:
http://axamonitor.com/doku.php?id=crowdfunding_platforms

PRELUDE KICKSTARTER: 101,171
AXANAR KICKSTARTER: $638,471
AXANAR INDIGOGO: $574,434

Possibly Memory Alpha got that $500,000 figure from Alec's final crowdfunding campaign, but since the source is not cited it's impossible to say for sure.

 

My point wasn't about the exact figure of money they raised. My point was that they raised FAR beyond their stated goal and they never produced the film that they promised to their backers.

 

And that's the most ridiculous part. Supposedly better then Kelvin Universe, what "True Fans" (trademark also pending) wanted but yet never materialized.

 

And I agree entirely. It's just that your point is even more impactful when showing that the true amount of funding raised is almost 3 times higher...and he STILL produced nothing!

 

I gotcha. I just didn't want to fall down an internet rabbit hole and spend 30 minutes researching the exact amount of money they raised for a two-sentence post. I assumed that Memory Alpha would likely be accurate for that. Mea culpa.

 

Sam Cogley, Atty at law- A starbase-set show with '60s production values. Cheap but could be really good with lots of alien-centered legal matters needing attention.

 

No worries. I had the advantage in knowing where to look for the actual figure - not to mention following the case ad nauseum!

 

You might want to seek help for that...just sayin

 

Yeah, it's got pretty boring these days. Alec Peters will drag it out forever.
