(OH and if you think GoFundMe cares? Nope. At least not until they see a Warrant or Subpoena) -- they're happy to grab their fees and feign ignorance that anything related to a copyright violating project is occurring.)
For the record, GoFundMe no longer charges a percentage of funds raised. It's essentially free (except for credit card transactions fees, for which GFM has no control). It now relies on a "tipping" system where donors voluntarily add a bit of money to their contributions to support GFM itself. According to them, that's working.

I’m surprised that’s working. Wouldn’t think people begging for money would be the best tippers.

I would say LFIM has no shame, but that would be like saying "water is wet" at this point.

FanFilmFactor has some videos from the first day's shooting:

If you have spent any or all of the past four years confidently predicting that ALEC PETERS would never get his act together enough to start making his ambitious fan film a reality, look away now.

Actually, Jonny, my assertion has always been actually producing the films runs counter to LORD FOOT IN MOUTH'S true goals. Watching a bunch of either sycophantic or desperate-for-work morons wandering around a half-assed set in a warehouse hasn't changed that opinion.

At least now LFIM has his excuse to not actually make the movie.
 
I love the question at the end of the article asking if "another battle will erupt" between Axanar and CBS. "battle" is not the word I would choose. "Beatdown" might be more appropriate.

Yep. That punk Alec's jumping up to get beat down.

So J.G. Hertzler is playing an active role in this, even though it was specifically stated in the settlement stipulations that no Trek actor may take part in any fan films? Sigh...this is not going to end well, is it?

Under the settlement he can use JG Hertzler, Gary Graham and Kate Vernon (and Richard Hatch):

He is not allowed to use any other Trek actors.
 
I don't think Kate Vernon has been confirmed as returning yet. I believe the last update was she was reading the script.
