Anyone not having seen this new movie, do it now – it really rocks! What is better, it's free.
Here's The Register report: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/10/06/star_trek_parody/
Please note that you shouldn't try downloading straight from the Web server but via Bittorrent. You don't have to set up anything (other than download and install the client), unlike with, say, DC++. The movie will arrive in a few hours and stored in the cd C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\ directory.
I've watched it, unmodified, with the latest version of TCPMP (http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about ) on my PL720. Fortunately, the problems common with older versions of BetaPlayer (green coloring) weren't visible at all.
It really doesn't look as an "amateur" movie (except for some purple fringing in very bad lighting situations – with a superpro camera & heavy postediting, nothing like this could be seen). The English subtitles are also pretty good (but, of course, don't convey everything said/displayed in Finnish).
Don't expect it's another Aki Kaurismäki movie – in both the wrong and right meaning of the word. That is, it delivers definitely shallower humour than with Aki's movies – still, you'll laugh your asses off!
REALLY RECOMMENDED!
