This was a great edit. I actually believed the Bugs were fighting the Enterprise Crew. The Special Effects/Editing was awesome! I look forward to more releases from this great FanEditor! :)

I was quite surprised by this. Although I thought the Star Trek footage would have been pulled from some out of nowhere episode (too much to ask for obviously), the pacing works great for this one. The only things that nagged me is in comparison with the 40 year Star Trek clips, the Starship Troopers clips were far too clean, maybe aging the clips would’ve added to the authenticity. Also the extensive bug scene reuse was glaring, maybe sampling from all 3 Starship Trooper films would remedy this issue. (though the SFX in the 2 sequels are terrible in comparison, which might work better with ST:TOS – oh well).

EXTRAS SPOILERS BELOW!!

But seriously what was up with the extras? I was completely baffled by the Space Nazis clip

END SPOILERS ABOVE!!

I liked it. There were, though, a few issues. A few of the scenes from Starship Troopers were re-used multiple times and it was obvious. Considering, though, that you only had so much to work with I think this is somewhat excusable.

Another issue was continuity in the color of the surrounding rocks while in the caves. Star Trek was blue, SST was brown. Again, considering what you had to work with this is somewhat excusable. Aside from that there were a few very minor continuity issues, like Sulu ordering battle-stations after Kirk already had. These were all pretty ignorable.

There were a lot of fairly clever edits, though, which I think make up for the issues.

One last thing, though. The variation in the quality of the shots was pretty noticeable. Not all of the Star Trek scenes were of equal quality, and none of those were at the level of quality of the SST scenes. If possible, adding some film grain or something to the SST scenes would probably make them fit the visual quality of the Star Trek scenes better.

I didn’t suffer any of the audio level variations that Pauley noted, but the reasons for this could vary on how we watched it. I used Quicktime with headphones.

Overall the edit was good. I was skeptical that it could be pulled off, but I was pleasantly surprised. I imagine that it took a good amount of time to choose and get all the correct Star Trek scenes together considering many of them come from different episodes. In this regard, the edit is very good. Like I said, overall the edit was good, and worth the download.

If I had to give it a number rating I’d say 3.5/5.
