We wrapped at the stage somewhere around 2:00 AM this morning, and locked up at around 4:00. It’s already gone.
To the magicians, mind-readers and muses of Polaris:
Maurice - I could never do your job. You saved this ship.
Paul - the leader of the cast. Entered as Chaney and wrapped as Bogey. And I so touched your ass.
Gina - you gave voice and a human heart to a silly tale of rayguns and rocket ships. Save for you, my words are sand.
Nick Cook - I think it was a half apple. What’re you all looking at?
Susan C - She walks in beauty…
Case - it’s been a privilege, sir.
Garrett - it is very cold, in space…
Lucie - you sure Nick’s console isn’t booby-trapped?
Susan H - that was one of the bravest things I’ve seen with my own eyes.
John B - Dying is fun, ain’t it?
Alex - Okay, now I know the difference between God and a Director of Photography. I’m still not clear on the 85 and 50 mm, though. Dolly moves.
Chris - A-Team, all the way.
Cynthia - Lord of Chaos. Bring the rage.
Paula - the clapboard art goes on the DVD, for sure.
Doug - you, me and Brad Naylor. This is fun!
Romel - Krypton wants their rocket back. Dude, can you jump back in time five minutes and take care of that?
Carol - You gave Beauty her face. Hanging with you was lovely. And I swear I thought it was a toy.
Mike B - master of 26th century bling.
Nick G - looking forward to three-hour coffee breaks on Ellsworth, again.
Thank you. As I said to several of you over the week:
You never gave me what I wanted.
You gave me what I never imagined, what I wouldn’t dare to ask for, and all I could ever need.
I love you all.
Heartfelt thanks to Richard, Rick, Carl, Nick, Fred and all the other folks who came, saw, worked with us and contributed so much.
Alex has to keep correcting my quote, as he does so many other things, so I’ll reset and go again: We done the impossible, and that makes us mighty!
Cut. Moving on.
FGG!
- Dennis

Congratulations to everyone for a successful shoot!
Dennis, what are your long-term plans for Starship Polaris? For example is this movie going to be made available on DVD and/or Blu-ray?

I’m sure that it will be out eventually on DVD at least.
I really want people to see the amazing work that this group is doing on this movie. I’m in awe of what I saw last week, and filled with admiration for them. Really, all I have to do is to get out of their way most of the time and not mess it up.
