CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar

I stand corrected. I remember the TNG manual situation, but I also remember a lot of scuttlebutt at the time about the militaristic stuff. This was around the same time that Diane Carey was going on about not being allowed to mention USMC in the dedication to one of her books, and Richard Arnold was pulling all his stunts, and after Roddenberry pissed all over TWOK for being too military and warlike, so it certainly seemed right. But I can't find any real evidence.
Wellllllllllll I was going to pop over and have a look at it, but it seems I may have been blocked and kicked out of the group. I didn't even say anything rude or anything. LOL. Maybe they didn't like me joining I Stand with CBS.
Maybe so
Thanks for posting that report. Instead of filming Axanar, Peters & Co decided to invest in so-called infrastructure (Ares Studios, Ares Digital, Sci-Fi Film School, Axacon, and merchandizing) as a for-profit business while blatantly violating CBS/Paramount's IP. What happened to Axanar being a nonprofit fan film? Total bait and switch. I'm going to various fundme sites to start a fan film, Indiana Smith And The Temple Of Gloom. Nevermind I'm going to use those donations to set myself up with a production studio, SXF studio, a filming school, and merch tie-ins for my own business conglomerate from someone elses IP. LOL.

Interesting headline, could this have been a hint hidden in plain sight?

I think that's a stretch. They're not talking about fan films on YouTube.
I do love hearing this, as it always comes from people who have never obviously been inside an Apple store, owned an Apple product or bothered to think for more than 3 seconds about that phrase.
They're talking about demand of licensed Star Trek on other streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon.
Exactly.
It's a brightly light room with a large amount of workstations tied into primary systems of a ship, that is kept to a high standard of maintenance and has a largely white colour scheme only so far as some bulkheads.
But it does seem amusing that bashing a highly successful business that enhances peoples lives by saying "HAHAHA you're trusted with making the nerve center of every Starfleet ship in the future, losers!" comes up so often.
I mean, how dare we consider one of the biggest technological innovators of the century might have an impact 200 years from now in some small way?
It should all by drab, black and red, 60's disco, wood and crude plastic that breaks when someone sneezes and using transistors the size of saucesages damnit!

If that was the only piece of evidence they had, I think it would be more than enough.

If some of the people on the Axanar fan group were any thicker, Superman wouldn't be able to see through them. It's absurd. Here's the latest from Alec:

Oh pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease Alec... Let your underlings do that - do that to me, and I shall see you in court for the Malicious Communications Act
Paramount and CBS served the lawsuit on December 29. Axanar Productions and Peters have 21 days to file either an answer to the complaint or a motion to dismiss. I suspect they'll attempt the latter.
Within the next couple of weeks, we should see a motion from CBS and Paramount for a preliminary injunction to halt all production on the Axanar feature, as well as an order to pull distribution of Prelude and the four-minute Vulcan scene. Hard to say when the court will hear that but probably not before the end of this month at the earliest.
