In 1996 there was a Star Trek/X-Men crossover comic published by Marvel, and then another in 1998. Due to rights, copyright and a whole bunch of legal stuff we will never get a movie version of these two worlds colliding on the big screen, but that hasn’t stopped a guy called silverlightsaber with video editing software and free time from making a cool Star Trek vs. X-Men trailer.
I’m not sure a movie featuring the two worlds would actually work on-screen, but this trailer makes me want one nonetheless.
Here’s the creators story behind the trailer:
After an accidental time warp causes the Enterprise to travel to an alternate reality, the crew must somehow find a way back. If not, the universe will collapse from two conflicting realities. Aware of this, Professor Xavier and his X-Men are forced to destroy this threat before everything is wiped out. Honoring one of my favorite comic mini-series ever, this is my version of these two universes colliding.
