Captain Coulier is a short film created by Lyndon Casey about a crew of a Canadian spaceship idling through space, not beacsue their warp drive or light speed or whatever is broken, but beacsue Captain Coulier doesn’t like to take life too fast. In a (very shot) 13 minutes we get to see him banter with his crew, host a ‘radio show’ (for who we don’t quite know) and get a message from his mother, which doesn’t paint a very flattering picture. The very best part about this short is that it’s titled ‘Part 1′, which excites me to no end because I would most certainly watch ‘Part 2′. Rumors indicate that this short may be optioned for a Canadian network television show, but this is unconfirmed. I really, really hope it’s true!
