Trey Parker and Matt Stone Save Enterprise

maotx writes "Paramount has agreed to permit Star Trek Enterprise to run for the fifth season which under normal circumstances, the sci-fi show would be impossible to produce with the reduced budget. Enter Star Trek fans Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators of South Park, to save the day. The two will rename the show to "Team Enterprise" and will keep the voices of the original actors. With the lack of a budget for CGI effects the two will use a model of the Enterprise NX-01, thus reviving an old Star Trek tradition. "We prefer the look of physical, tangible models over CGI ships any day," Parker said. "Of course, we have no visual effects budget whatsoever, so we won't be painting out the strings. You'll get used to it. Still trying to figure out where to put the propeller." They then went on to comment: "We're also gonna re-do the opening title sequence," Stone revealed. "Record a new theme -- something bombastic, action-oriented. Y'know, something that isn't, like, totally gay.""

Special Effects

In other words, Star Trek's special effects get an upgrade.

Before fighting...

[filtur]

The captain will now always yell "Respect my authoritah!"

so many mod points ...

[seringen]

Having mod points on April First is like having root on a broken computer: It might in theory give you some power, but there's no way to use it effectively.

I would pay money to see Cartmann as Captain

"I guess you didn't hear me, oh high and mighty Klingon commander, I said lick my hot sweaty balls!"

"Screw you guys, I'm beaming home."

"Sorry, we have a little morale problem with Ensign Redshirt. It seems-"

"Beam him into space. Now, onto the issue of dinner. I want-"

"Captain! we can't just beam a crew member into space. It's-"

"GODDAMN IT! I SAID BEAM HIM INTO SPACE! RESPECT MY A-THOR-I-TAY!"

Oh my god! They killed Spock!

You bastards!

OMG

[Greyfox]

I know it's a joke, but they totally should! For one thing, puppets with strings would have less wooden acting than the original cast. Second, Matt and Trey have the connections to do things like bring on Keanu Reeves's voice and have him be a red shirt that gets killed before he has a chance to actually say anything. I think if anyone could save the ailing Trek franchise, it'd be Matt and Trey.
