Pretty much my thoughts...
CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar

I better call this now, just in case...Fight for what? Guidelines from CBS is what they demanded!
Alec Peters is the greatest performance artist of all time. Joaquin Phoenix's run will pale in comparison when it's all said and done.
Trying to set himself up for more fundraising. Man has to make a living and getting a real job seems to be beneath him.

They don't care, not as long as they keep the money flowing and the doors open. They will burn every production they can as long as it means more from their donors.
WTF? If Axanar and Alec Peters get and accept a settlement of the C/P Copyright Infringement suit; how are they going to be able to 'fight' for anything related to Star Trek fan films? Hell, as the Guidelines stand Alec Peters, Mr. Burnett and hell, David Gerrold are effectively barred from participating in any Star Trek fan film.So any of you fan film productions going to join this group
Are they all now so deluded that they're thinking they (Axanar and Alec Peters) can take this case to a Jury and win? Also, (and as I've mentioned in previous posts) since all three WERE parading the fact that Disney had Guidelines for Star Wars fan films; and that CBS and Paramount should enact similar Guidelines...I mean that's EXACTLY what CBS and Paramount did - and in fact the CBS and Paramount Star Trek Fan Film Guidelines are LESS draconian than Disney's Star Wars Fan Film Guidelines. <--- Now they want to fight against getting EXACTLY what they themselves asked for?

NNW Studios® ought to consider exploring a relationship with Ron Howard, to do a Mockumentary - a lá Arrested Development - on "The Story of Axanar - The Thief of LA"
I am already writing the Voice-Over Intro...
...I spoke with Ron, and he said no problem!...

Let me show you Alec Peters, Robert Meyer Burnett, and David "I have no dog in this fight" Gerrold's argument in a nutshell:

Oh, feel free to hate them for Brexit, too. They both share the same ignorance and lack of understanding on how the real world works.
I cant help but feel there are more people who are more directly to blame for Brexit than Axanar

Oh most assuredly, but there's always a handful of twats at the top who get the whole ball rolling. That is where they are similar.
Can a group be made called Axanar:Return the Fans Donations. People need to start to put pressure on Alec to say if he is going to make the film or to return the fans donations!So any of you fan film productions going to join this group

I try my best.
If you buy into the narrative that the people behind Axanar have been aware for some time that completing their movie is now an impossibility, which I do, then these guidelines are manna from heaven for them. It cannot be completed as initially sold (and that is the right word, I think) and now they can point to these guidelines as the reason.
In fact, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see more inflated claims of just how good it was going to be because of this. And this will, of course, stir up more division and anger against the owners of Star Trek.
Sad and avoidable.

Let me just say it's good to see you again Skip.
I'm glad to see so many folks have returned & added to this conversation once again.
AP & Company - It could of been worse, CBS & Para could of just said "No more fan films, Do not pass GO do not collect $200.00"
Also if you want a real eye opener just listen to this - http://www.gandtshow.com/g-t-show-sl-christian-gossett/

Well I was a Vote Leave campaigner and am very happy with the result. But I assure you Sir, I am not responsible for Axanar!
If you want to label over half of the British population ignorant go ahead. Please feel free to sacrifice your own sovereignty to unelected bureaucrats if you want to, but don’t ask other countries to do so.
Yep. me
