Tommy Kraft announces Horizon sequel!!

Seems odd how quickly the new project came together. Tuesday, they were making a sequel. Thursday, it was cancelled. Saturday, we get a Kickstarter for a brand new project.

They actually announced the new kickstarter on Thursday, the same day when Federation Rising was cancelled. However, it looks like 'Project Discovery' had been in the works for some time. The story has been co-developed by Tommy Kraft and Ryan Webber in addition to Federation Rising. I hope they use some of the same actors.

Wasn't there a mention from him (directly or indirectly) of a thought for an original film round the time Horizon was released?

If I am remembering those Internet whispers correctly then it sounds like due to the success of Horizon he moved that one back in favour of a sequel so now he has just shuffled it back to being his next project?

Filmmakers tend to have a number of ideas (and often several working scripts) backlogged while they work on other projects. The sudden appearance of an entirely new project is no surprise to me.

Thanks, Obama!

Pretty sure it was just a joke. Because many people blame everything that's wrong with America on Obama.

It's called "creativity". Being able to pivot and file serial numbers that quickly is admirable.

That costs the same amount as the prior project? Seems like it would be more expensive starting from scratch.

Without the Star Trek name to give it juice, I'll be very surprised if they get to $250,000. That said, I've happily pledged because the concept is interesting, I enjoyed Horizon, and Tommy's a cool guy.

I just donated. Good luck to you Mr Kraft.

There's a reason why Truman had his sign that says The Buck Stops Here!

Star Trek Horizon's Facebook page appears to be gone for now! This is not going to help the Kickstarter.

They've only raised $10,000 so far. I think they're going to have trouble reaching their goal anyway.

I made a direct donation via pay pal, I figured I watched Horizon twice and if I ever ran into him I'd buy him a drink so why not

Could it be that Tommy plans to open a new Facebook page dedicated to the new project?

It would mean the project is seen on its own merits, even if there is mention of Horizon on it as past experience.

I'm still seeing the Facebook page.
