Someone Spent Seven Years Making a Stop-Motion, Star Trek Film
There's a new Star Trek movie coming out next week, and fans of the franchise are waiting to see it.
But, one dedicated fan (by the name of  Jürgen Kaiser) has spent the last seven years making a stop-motion, hour-long film starring the crew from the NX-1 which he has named Star Trek Enterprise II: The Beginning of the End (or Der Anfang vom Ende in his native German).
It's set after the end of Season 3 of the Star Trek: Enterpriseseries starring Scott Bakula, who's presented here as an action figure along with series favorites like the characters T'Pol and Tip Tucker.
It wasn't cheap. In an interview with Würzburg's Main-Post, Kaiser claims the project cost him about as much as a small car. It all came out of his pocket, and he won't even allow donations out of fears that those who hold the rights to Star Trek might pull his labor of love off of YouTube.
