But, but, but the Axanar universe is better than the regular Trek universe has been in decades.



Or at least it might have been if Alec had actually made the fucking movie, rather than screwing around, chasing off the real talent, and getting his ass sued.
 
Oooooh, Karl.
For anybody not aware I've mentioned in some other threads, that I've been working on an urban fantasy novel off and on for a while now, so that was what I was referring to. I don't know if I'm ever going to actually try and get it published or anything, it's mainly just something I'm doing for fun when the mood strikes me.
 
Latest donor email basically says "If you don't register with Ares Digital 3.0 you won't get your perks." So I registered again, and I gave them my contact information again. Information they already got through the Kickstarter and Indiegogo, so I consider it a waste of time. This whole thing has been a fiasco, and I'm sorry for donating to it. If I had known what happened the night Prelude premiered I woldn't have. (If you don't know what I mean by that, there's a Trekzone interview with Christian Gossett that explains it.)
 
Well I for one choose not to watch/listen to the looooong Trekzone stuff, so please enlighten us here.

A transcript is not necessary; a synopsis would be plenty. :)
 
@urbandefault It's been a while since I've listened to it which is why I'd encourage you to do so for the exact details. I maybe fuzzy, but as I remember it, the night Prelude premiered, AP basically said he had to start getting rid of all the creative people that made Prelude what it is. Eventually, there was just no one left from Prelude that stuck around for Axanar because they'd all been run off by AP.

In today’s AxaMonitor Daily:

  • We’re getting a more solid timeline for Axanar Lite’s private fundraising effort, but Alec Peters may be cutting it close.
  • Exact terms of Axanar’s settlement with CBS/Paramount are kept secret but Peters let one li’l tidbit slip out during last night’s Axanar: Confidential.
  • Peters and his legal opponent, Hero Prop owner Tiana Armstrong, met face-to-face in two days of depositions in Las Vegas in their dispute over the sale of the Enterprise-E shooting model from Star Trek: First Contact.
  • How many Mudds does Peters earn for his recent Facebook rant in which he called me a liar? Examine our detailed Fact Check. Hint: We give out our first Upside-Down Mudd!
  • Interlude, Jonathan Lane’s “Axanar universe” fan film may be in trouble.
  • It’s taken almost two months for the Ares Studios Patreon to make up lost ground since May. But with August 1 looming, how much of a hit is the funding effort likely to take.

Popped up on my YouTube recommended list:

Axanar SF Friday Re-Watch Party #5 - Prelude to Axanar

Posted: 19 July 2019. Runtime: 1:11:11 -- that time seems deliberate, but for what purpose?
 
Don’t know, but Prelude is not over an hour long, unless they watched it 4 or 5 times in a row. Not sure what that’s about.
 
@Sgt_G That also came up in my recommended videos. I thought at the time, why spend an hour and eleven minutes watching Prelude again when I can do it the normal 22 minute runtime. Come to think of it, my blu-ray of Prelude is buried in a drawer in my closet, and hasn't seen the light of day in 2 years.

@carlosp Thank you for all that you do. I look forward to reading the article the first chance I get.
 
The answer's right there in the title: rewatch "party." It's obviously more than one person getting together to watch Prelude. Most of the extra time is for the members of the party to gush over it. From now on, whenever someone searches for Prelude on YouTube, that video will come up as one of the responses.
