[quote=""Olorin""]Various Trek stars taking the Ice Bucket challenge:

Patrick Stewart has been challenged twice now to take it and hasn't done so yet.
George Takei has challenged Ian McKellen to take it, so let's hope he does.
Best reaction of the ones in these clips so far: toss-up between Shatner and Gates McFadden.[/quote]
Those are great! Maybe Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart will do one together, they seem to be together everywhere on the net.
[quote=""Olorin""]Bill Hunt of the Digital Bits has lots of good things to say and report about Axanar, including that he's read the latest script and it is in his opinion "fantastic." Also, the project's Kickstarter campaign is going like a house afire and has already raised about half the money needed to make the film. Finally, CBS is watching this project with great interest, and if it's successful, who knows, we might see Star Trek return to TV.
In any event, it sounds like we are going to get a great movie to watch for totally free. Hopefully they can work out some agreement with CBS to release it on BluRay on a non-profit basis, as I will definitely want it in my collection if it's as good as the 20-minute prelude was.

Sounds good to me. The prelude was great, I am looking forward to the finished product. And if this helps get Trek back on TV that would be even better. I'd even take a Netflix series!
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
