And considering there were some lawsuits flying around between the two them recently (that happened, yes?), I find this whole development somewhat confusing. :confused:
 
Ah! Thank you - I get them confused. At this point, it’s like saying the same word over and over again and it loses its meaning - so too does it go for all the people swirling around the continuing Axanar drama. After a while, they all look the same to me.
 
At this point I have no idea how Slow Lane can continue to associate with His Majesty, especially if he really wants to do a fan film. I mean, seriously, if you want to make a really good fan film, who's first on your call list? The guy who raised a bunch of money and spent it on nothing and got sued? Yeah, that's who I'm calling. Nah, there are people who have actually made films and could give really good advice. But no, SL has tied himself to AP. Hmm, now I'm thinking ...

The Slow Lane / Alec Peters collaboration should from this day forward be known as SLAP. :techman:

And that's all I have to say about that.
 
The other thing that amazes me is that he got someone as well known, well at least in the comic book crowd, as Paul Jenkins involved in Axanar so late in the game. I would love to see someone interview Jenkins and find out how aware he is of Axanar and Alec Peters' history.
I can't remember which one, but I saw that there are some issues written by Jenkins in one of the series I'm reading, and I have to admit, his involvement with Axanar has made me a bit hesitant to read his issues. I probably will, just because I don't want to miss anything important, but I still did kind of pause for a moment when I saw his name under "writer".

Yeah, I have a had time reconciling Jenkins’s owner owned comics position with him being comfortable stealing someone else’s IP. Maybe he’s fine stealing from a corporation. Maybe that’s how he justifies it.
 
Hey guys, I'm way up in the sticks in a one rotary phone town.
I know I must have missed the Axanar epic movie by now so go easy on the spoilers.
P.S
The town does have a dog but the poor guy only has 3 legs. At least we have a full sushi bar so I'm good.

AXANAR CHEAT SHEET!
  • Alec Peters = Grifter in chief
  • Terry McIntosh = IT turncoat
  • Robert Meyer Burnett = Directorial turncoat
  • Mike Bawden = PR turncoat
  • Jonathan Lane = obsequious sycophant/hanger-on
 
What exactly is Lane and Peters relationship? Are they lifelong friends or related or something? I'm just wondering why Lane seems to be so completely devoted to Peters, even as practically everyone else around him is turning on him.

I'm led to understand that Peters helped him get Fan Film Factor started, which is giving the guy something to do in between dad duties.

Actually Mike Badwen (when he was a Peters sycophant), helped J. Lane start Fan Film Factor (Alec Peters probably has the same 'knowledge' of HTML that he does of Lawyering or Fan Film making.)
 
It's like knowing a celebrity. He gets just enough access to pretend you're hobknobbing with the big-shots, even if it IS D-list. And inside access to try and keep his blog relevant. It's kinda sad, but I get it...
 
I don't think Mr. Lane would respond well to criticism of someone he evidently still respects.
He hasn't, and he won't, if and/or until he starts to make actual progress on his project and is inevitably stonewalled by Alec, who can't stand to see anyone outpace him but never seems to take measures to keep that from happening. :D
