And, impressively, Prelude to Axanar is the only Star Trek production so honoured. The film also scored an Honourable Mention in the Trailers & Videos category, while StarTrekAxanar.com was similarly mentioned for the Websites & Blogs category. The Geekie Awards will be announced at a gala event at the Barker Airport Hangar in Santa Monica on the 15th of October, with a live stream at http://www.ustream.tv/TheGeekieAwards.
