This is interesting.
Here's the screengrab I posted last night
Now here's the same page from this morning.
Notice anything different?
Now it's "original"

Now it's "original"
And why do you need the largest green screen? So this is so big that actual commercial productions don't find a need for one this big. He didn't make something his film needed he made something to brag about.
Transformative.Now it's "original"
Me and my big mouth. I overheard a young woman in a Sydney science fiction bookshop complaining to the staff about CBS/Paramount's lawsuit against "the fans". She was appalled that the studios were claiming "copyright breach of the Klingon language and Vulcan ears" because "how can anyone copyright a language or pointy ears?"
I attempted to say that the lawsuit was more about one fan group raising $1million using CBS/Paramount IP, and paying themselves wages from the donated funds, but she flew into a rage, boasted of her tertiary degree in copyright law, couldn't see any problem with even Warner Bros. or Universal making use of CBS/Paramount's "Star Trek" IP if they wanted to. She then exclaimed that she "loved speaking to the ignorant" - and stormed out.

Someone should have told them that it's not the size of your green screen that counts; it's whether or not you use it.
Or how you use it
In Australia, I'm nearly 100% certain you can't get 'a degree in copyright law.' For one thing, it's actually called 'intellectual property law.' For another, the only way she'd have a 'degree' in intellectual property, is if she had a Masters degree or a Doctorate focused on that area. If she was boasting of her credentials, you'd think she'd mention those 'higher' qualifications.
And all legitimate law degrees are 'tertiary.'
Uh... Less empty space at the top of the page?
They just have to put that logo on everything, don't they?
Yup!
Soon in the Axanar Donor Store: Axanar branded toiled paper
.
If "Friends & Fans of AP" create this new corporation to shelter the studio that isn't and its assets, I wonder if he'll stay true to form and forget to file the transfer paperwork.
That would be hilarious.
That would be hilarious.
State of the art in the sense that it doesn't have an adequate electrical grid to actually do any filming?
The boasting about the green screen is hilarious. Either it's true, and they overspent on something they don't need, or it's a load of horse manure, and it's another example of Peters misleading the faithful into thinking they were ready to actually film the thing.
Donors' money laundry with a spoonful of bankruptcy. Assets and minimum wage secured!
Mission accomplished!
Mission accomplished!
I like Star Trek because it depicts a future in which humanity has evolved to the point where nobody is that obtuse anymore. Alas, that's probably unrealistically optimistic.
I would say the legality of living in a warehouse would depend on local zoning ordinances and building codes. If overnight accommodations are occurring in an office or warehouse building that isn't intended for that purpose (as opposed to a motel/hotel or residential building with proper amenities, for instance) then technically, somebody might be subject to a fine.... probably the owner of the building for "allowing" it to happen. Of course, some people still do it anyway.
As far as what address you use as your place of residence on tax returns, your driver's license, passport, other legal documents, etc., I'm not sure if anybody really checks to see what kind of building you live in.

If AP wasn't being a Douche about this whole thing, I would actually hope they could settle this suit amicably. But *because* of how he is acting, I hope they completely shut him down. No, I don't wish anything bad to happen to him personally. But professionally, he deserves to pay the price for how he has acted.
