i just hate the corny acting and poor effects.

From my personal experience, that is all fan films ever are. I have never seen a fan film that was really worth anything. They all make amusing little pieces that fit nicely in with the typical youtube tripe, but never anything beyond that. Quite honestly, all the guy with any real talent are off making their own films based on original ideas.

Star Trek Phase II really proves my point. They try really hard, obviously have a budget, even managed to somehow get Paramount's blessing in the whole thing, even have guest stars that are real actors from the original series, and yet, the things are unwatchable! They are absolutely awful. If you wanted to torture me for information, the quickest way to do so would probably be to tie me in a chair in front of a monitor playing ST Phase II, and force my eyes open, and make me watch the things for more than ten minutes. I'd be spilling out my deepest darkest secrets, betraying my friends, family, and country, and begging for a sharp object so I could cut a few of my arteries and put an end to it all.
