Drex Files-TV update!

I’m waiting for a go-ahead from startrek.com to post the first episode of our new Drex Files-TV video-mag right here! Yesterday Paramount told me that it looked like a throttle-up for tomorrow. I’ll keep you informed. In the meantime, check out the trailer for Caprica season 1.5. We heat things up a bit.
Thanks to Mighty Matt Boardman for the new header! That goes for everyone. You make ‘em, I’ll use ‘em!

To all the ships at sea, and all the ports of call!
I’m putting together a video-mag-slash-column for the relaunched startrek.com. called “Video Bytes” .
“Video Bytes” run concurrently at the “drex files” and I cannot wait for you to see it, ’cause It’s gonna rock your shuttlecraft.

** During construction of the NX sets I kept a video record, and this stuff’ll knock your socks off. The first installment makes maximum montage of the construction of the NX warp core and engineering department. Hey… you know it, and I know it: A cool engineering department is central to a starship, and we were especially proud of this one. It’s a remarkable document of a very ambitious Star Trek set, and baby you are there!
** Le Voyage dans la lune! No, not the Georges Melies science fiction classic, I’m talking BarBara Luna! A few weeks back, me, Dorth, Jimmy, and Luna went to see “CHIPs: The Musical” (no, I’m not kidding!) at Gary Marshall’s Eagle Theater in Tolucca Lake. OMG it was hysterical, but that’s another story. I brought my video camera and captured some classic Luna, and I want to share it with you. She’s silly and zany and adorable.
** “SOTL: Active Duty!” – It hit me like a ton of neutronium! Take some old SOTL pages an animate them! Be sure you’ve got your heavy reinforced Depends on because this is gold, Jerry! See the launch of the refit NX and Matt Jefferies iconic ringship take flight! See the J, the Altair, and the Kelvin! “SOTL: Active Duty!” will be the kick in the PTC you have been yearning for! Tobias Richter, Robert Wilde, and Mark Rademaker guest.

** … And if that wasn’t enough we’ve got an “Andygram” too! Amazing Andy Probert remembers the “sphinx shuttle” concept he created for TNG, while Bananamen Deg brings it to life with his newly minted 3D version of the fabled conveyance. A classic Trek design. Why would anyone make Star Trek without Probert attached?
So here is the schedule adjustment for the drex files: Rather than posting here on July 25th, I will be using this weekend to finish “Videos Bytes” Startrek.com and the drex files will be posting it on the 28th\29th. To round that all off I will be returning the following Sunday (8\1) with more of the sort of entries you have grown accustomed to! Standby!

Conan The Musical
I was always disappointed with John Milius Conan film. After this I feel better.
