This is Star Trek done by someone who loves and understands it. And it's what a prequel or an interludium should do: Closing plotholes, mapping the route to things already known to come and giving more deepth to the source material (and sometimes setting the seed for stories of an uncharted future beyond what's shown so far). The format with just dialogues of two charactres talking about personal stuff and historical events as some kind of anthalogy series is what i want for Trek. Really good job.
Love the red shirts
Nicely done, only one error Sulu got command of Excelsior in 2290, not 2281.
Cagger Six sounds fun
Fire your stone age sound mixer.
A rugged hand. 2024.
Good job! I'm glad some people are continuing to create fan films despite CBS' dystopian rules.
Get it in gear Jonathan
He was still alive in the Nexus.
I got a kick out of this, thanks
This did bring a tear to this old Trekkie's eyes. I remember watching Star Trek when it was brand new in 1966, and I joined the Star Trek Fan Club, which used the US Postal Service. It was amazing. OMG, that was 58 years ago. Now I really feel old, LOL.
STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS has recently been CANCELLED. PARAMOUNT PLUS should REPLACE it with THIS !!!
"Dinner with Spock?" Lol
Ps it's SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT DIS--y Have to offer THANK YOU FOR A GOOD LAUGH. HOPE YOU ALL CAN MAKE SOME MORE GOD BLESS YOU 😊
How ironic, that Kirk died long before McCoy and Spock... yet William Shatner outlived DeForest Kelley, Leonard Nimoy, James Doohan, Nichelle Nichols...
Sometimes fiction is stranger than truth. 🙂
The only ones left are George Takei and Walter Koenig, although Bill Shatner did have an event with Patrick Stewart, Jonathon Frakes, Gates McFadden, and Michael Dorn. I'm not sure if George and Walter still do conventions.
This was simply excellent.
That was simply wonderful to read. Thanks, Gary.
Fantastic
Much appreciated, Captain.
Perfection
Thanks
I love this😅😅
9:42 Not a coincidence. I just heard Marvin saying " you didn't ask ". H2G2
This is well written and nicely recreates the look of the Animated Series, as well.
Thank you, Kevin.

"What is this? Shitload Of Mashed Potatoes Day? HUH?!
Are those chimps carrying the stretcher?
Kirk was the closest thing Spock had to a brother, half brother or an adopted sister….Geeezzz….
WTF!!!
@@carlosalbertoalonso418 Exactly what I said when I saw Star Trek V and Star Trek Discovery…
Why did you (or they) stop making these?
Hi my name is Antonio Perez I love the unnerform you was wearing from Captain Archer from the Enterprise NX O 1 sincerely yours Truly Antonio Perez
Super talk and sing a long LOL, thanks for coming together here and sharing your time talking NIMRAN SAUND, SAMUEL COCKINGS and Jonathan Lane, I for 1 find these talks of great interest, thanks for all you good folks do for our Fan Film Univerce keeping it going strong and the entertainment you bring out of the mind creating magic
This is beatiful
Thank you so much.
Well done..kept me interested❤
I'm so glad, Albert.
Glad to know they still have Jägermeister in the 23rd century... edit: Very well done btw...
Thanks. And I expect that, if Scotch and Vodka make it to the future, Jägermeister must be there, too.
I loved Star Trek!
Awesome job.
Thanks!
I would juat slow Nimoys voice down 10-15%. "Spocks" cadence would be a tad slower and measured.
Feel free to do so, my friend. 🙂
Wow. The voices are amazing. Are these new voice actors or are you using some type of deep fake technology? I would love to watch more animated features with these voices and the remaining living cast members Takei, Koenig and Shatner. Maybe find another voice for Uhura and perhaps for Chapel.
All of the voices were generated by Eleven Labs' A.I. speech synthesis algorithm. Sadly, fan films are not allowed to hire any actors who appeared in Star Trek...not that I could ever afford Shatner's rate anyway! 🙂 For more about the making of this fan film and the A.I. process, check out this blog: fanfilmfactor.com/2024/04/29/how-i-used-a-i-technology-to-bring-the-voices-of-spock-and-mccoy-back-to-life-in-an-absent-friend-part-1-the-audio/
The transition movie was supposed to be the story of “Yesterday’s Enterprise” in TNG.
Not so sure about that, Snow.
what?
@@jonathanlane1377Yes it was proposed as Star Trek 6. Kirk and crew were to take the Enterprise A into a vortex and meet up with Enterprise E crew. Similar circumstances. I think Happy Gilmore Castillo was written for Kirk. This might have worked well. Kirk had to make a decision to stay in the alternate future or go back a face certain death. Probably some historical epilogue would have been written saying that the old Enterprise crew died saving the Klingons from a Romulan attack.
@@jonathanlane1377Not entirely the plan but they were discussing with Nimoy about plans for a transition movie and it was rumored they were considering this script which went through many rewrites to bring the old fold in a movie. “While discussing the ingenious alternate timeline worldbuilding of the episode, Moore also offered another amusing observation: He almost wishes the episode hadn't happened, so he could have used the same concept for Star Trek Generations four years later. "If we hadn't have done that episode, then [the movie] would have been the Enterprise-A coming through that wormhole, and you'd have Spock and Kirk and everyone on that ship, we'd play the same story," Moore said. "They - the original crew - they had to go back to their deaths. And Guinan knew Kirk, and Guinan knew Picard, and that would have been an amazing movie."”
NO! GENERATIONS
APPLAUSE! This was very enjoyable and nostalgic for me, as I've loved these actors and characters (and Trek TAS) for 6 decades. Thanks for sharing the making of it, too. You've helped show what AI can do in the right hands, as its legal future is raising concern and questions. I've always wanted to make cartoons, but simply don't have the talent.
Thanks for the kind words, JJJ. Don't give up on your dreams. I can't make cartoons either, but I found someone who could.
😢 😢
I hope those were good tears.
I enjoy watching these episodes. GOD Bless DeForest Kelley and Leonard Nimoy!!! Rest in Peace to both.
Indeed!
Thank you for providing this convenient One-Stop shop where we can find all of the different fan film Star Trek projects that are currently available on CZcams. All the best to these producers, and hopes for new producers out there to create even more exciting Star Trek content.
Sounds like the tactics of the liberal left these days 🤔
Another informative and entertaining Jonathan Lane interview! Thank you for helping introduce these guys to the world.
I'm not generally a fan of fan productions, but I have to say this was excellent. Well written, and well researched/well remembered. So many nice little nods. And, hardest of all to achieve in a fan film: actual emotional resonance. This was a great send-off for a great captain.
Thanks so much for your kind words, Bill.
Rick Cole: I love these good folks magic, thank you for giving your time here chatting and in your films JACK PONISSI and film group, thank you Jonathan for all you do here and every where, thanks for the mapping, so enjoyed listening in to the chat here
Thanks for the kind words.
Thanks for the interview, I really liked your editing and all the research in the photos and so on
The honor is to serve, mio amico. 🙂
Thank you for including my fan film Production 'Beyond Antares' in your video. That is so cool! 😊
It was really excellently done and provided a wonderful and appropriate intro.
some Star trek fan films really are well written. they have become a genre all their own. basically greek theater with closeups. there some I'd like to see again.
This gives closure, thank you.
You are very welcome.
Closure. I never considered that.
@@jonathanlane1377 This would have given TOS closure. There were really not “Post” or “Half Credit” scenes in movies back then, but if there were, THIS should have been one in “Generations”. In my head cannon, it IS the post credit scene to “Generations”.
@@Kinglore2000 This would have given TOS closure. There were really not “Post” or “Half Credit” scenes in movies back then, but if there were, THIS should have been one in “Generations”. In my head cannon, it IS the post credit scene to “Generations”.
This or something similar should have been done in the movie. Right after the Enterprise B fly-by of the "camera" and before the fade to the Enterprise schooner. Spacedock probably has a few bars, it could have taken place there. This is wonderful and great job!
Neither Nmoy nor Kelley wanted to appear in that film, the latter because he was getting on in years and felt his time in front of the camera was done. Indeed, De passed away five years after Generations was released, and he was not in good health toward to end, I'm sorry to say.
Star Trek Generations was a mistake
Actually, I rather enjoyed it.
It could've been better in a few ways. I respect what happened to Kirk and such, but the destruction of the Enterprise D, that was bad. Like, not a good kind of bad, but like a BAD bad.
@@Kinglore2000 They crashed the Enterprises too many times! It was traumatic to watch.
@@EleneDOM TO BOLDLY GO...
WTF!!! MELONAZO!!!
