    I'm not sure which I'm more impressed by: the reference to the Pakleds, or the fact that I recognized it. No wait, one is impressive, the other is sad. #startrek

    Singing, animation, writing, this was not made by a Klingon. It is not part of the klingon way. #startrek

    If it's a viral video it's a bit early for the next movie which is scheduled for a 2012 release. If this is a fan made video, the person responsible is one of the best animators currently working. Either way, a fun little film. #startrek

    The movie is still in embryo stage and way too far away for it to be a viral video. i'm saying fan-made or tied to an animated tv series. Either way, I good with it. #startrek

    Here's what I can figure out of the Klingon:

    tlhIngan wo'ngan maH
    law' wa'maH cha' nughoHovtay'
    'ej Sachvam SIgh' jaj law Hoch law
    yuQ DaSIgh'a'
    chay'a'
    Ha' jIghoS. chav muv
    qaghaqchej tlhIngan yuQ tlvpu'
    wo' cheo Hoch
    mIp 'ejIQ tayqeq
    'ov ghang
    'ej majQa' yISop
    tlhInganmaj janISSary
    lawwlghach maywl yoH
    tep bInge yotghachvo muv
    'ej law' negh yongghach lo'wo
    pe'vIl potlh yuQ Qan wo' tlhIng
    SIghghach je raghghach qelqItghghach
    HI'tIy'pagh Dapvajay'
    nuHHomlIj roQghach
    tlqmey poSmoHghach
    je yach je tlhIngan wo' muv SIbI
    Su 'ach 'a chargh
    ruv boS SIbI'a'

    And the translation (which isn't very good because the Klingon wasn't good):

    We are inhabitants of the Klingon Empire
    be many, 12, (??? - something about arguing)
    and expand-this, it influence's, many day, many all
    Do you influence the planet?
    How?
    Let's go, we apporach you. He joins achivement
    I contribute, he enjoyed the Klingon planet
    Empire's (??cheo??) all
    Civilisation (??'ejIQ) wealth
    He competes, he ends prematurely
    and Well done! Eat!
    Our Klingon janISSary
    The brave "be-manyer-ness"'s "be fairer"
    You take away cargo, from invadeness he joins
    and soliders "get-in-ness" users are many
    Forcefully the empire's Kling protects something importants planet
    "Influence-ness" and "decay-ness" "consider-be-possible-ness"
    (???) Dictator-?-zero nonsence-!#?curse*@#-more-cursing
    Your small arms (NB: weapons) put-down-ness
    hearts scattered around cause-to-be-open-ness
    and he strokes and immediatly he joins the Klingon empire.
    Ready. but but conquer
    Immediatly collect justice?

    It could be related to the Star Trek Online MMORPG that Cryptic Studios is producing - coincidentally their closed beta test started last week.

    And yes I know the game is set post-TNG. #startrek
