CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar

Axamonitor has an interesting article about Alec pulling a "copyright violation" threat over some crappy 2 minute video he released. The ironic hypocrisy ... d'oh.

Axanar Trailer Removed After Criticism
http://axamonitor.com/doku.php?id=axanar_trailer
"After it was screened on June 18, 2016, in Denver, the trailer was posted for 18 hours on the private Facebook page set up exclusively for people who donated to Axanar in its Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaigns.

From there, the trailer was leaked to YouTube and Facebook, with Axanar Productions filing repeated takedown notices with YouTube, ironically claiming the leak constituted a copyright violation."
Who cares, is anyone caring about this waste of two perfectly good minutes?
 
I care. There's no reason to be rude. LFIM self-admittedly taking CBS/P's IP only to turn around claiming it's his IP to intimidate others into silence is something I hope Loeb & Loeb becomes aware of.
Didn't mean to be rude, apologies for coming off that way. Just the years of Alec this, Peters that, the man is nothing, void of true concepts except for shaking down Star Trek fans for a million plus dollars to produce what, a green screen?
The guy enlisted my help 4-5 years ago and when I question the morality of his plan, he could only reply that he read a couple of books. I laughed him off as a want-to-be then and when on to join a real fan film club with ethics and meanwhile this turd just won't flush!
 
Did Anaxar have any ship designs outside of the Ares what were an original design? Actually was the Ares an original design?

Most of their federation fleet were NuTrek ships with their nacelles replaced with more TOS looking ones.
yes the Ares is a original design.
 
I gotta say... That trailer was really really awful. Alec looked really off in his performance,and while the CGI is nicely composed, it doesn't have the energy it really requires for the dramatic battles they want to portray. This isn't entirely surprising though since it's a hodge-podge of New Voyages footage and Tobias' stuff with some blown-out audio. (Really, who balanced their audience? Could have fixed that in two seconds by capping the audio in the editor... )

As compared to what? The man has no acting experience. And, no, acting like a *bleep* to people who disagree with him does not count. Parts of his interview scenes in Prelude were okay, but I do suspect they had to reshoot and edit him much more than the others just to make his part passable.

Yes, as compared to Prelude. He looks really off by comparison to what was passable in Prelude. And that's saying something.

Gossett's presence as director made all the difference.
 
BURYING THE LEAD As usual, Axanar tucks away newsworthy nuggets at the bottom of its posts. Note that the Donor Store appears to have been re-branded as the "Donor Station." Because lawsuit? That and other AxaNews »

A "station" is usually where a traveler goes to get service and supplies. Good luck with that, Axanar fans :techman:
 
when will this end? it is really getting sad. I am surprised that no one took a swing at him at the ST:B.

I've got a screencap somewhere from one of the team that suggests all Axanar's fair use. I'll have to dig it out.

This ought to get him going then............
