Why on earth did Nichelle Nichols agree to star in a movie like this?
Since the director of this movie decided that this post wasn't worthy of "his" board and deleted it, I'll just keep reposting this until the mods take notice that there is NOTHING in this post that goes against the TC of IMDB and ban him for unlawful reporting of threads.
And I didn't really care that much about that thread anyway, but deleting post like that just pisses me of.
Original Post:
I stumbled across this movie from a weird and fascinating deleted thread on the help board(seems like the director himself was complaining about the fraudulent voting on IMDB). But then I saw that Nichols was in it! I immediately got interested as a long time Trekkie. But then I saw the trailer...
Good Lord, I felt sorry for her. It looked like a bad porn movie. Without porn. The acting, directing, lighting, cinematography , the dialogue...
Why would such a distinguished lady agree to do such an awful movie? Was she a friend of the producer or something and did it as a favor?
On the other hand, I saw that she got an "executive producer" credit which is a classic Hollywood bribe indicating she didn't do it as a favor to somebody she knew. So I was wondering what's going on?
