Anyone notice the blog has changed? All the childish "Tony Todd wanted $15,000 for a two line part" crap has been changed to "Tony's just too busy with The Flash"

http://www.axanarproductions.com/casting-axanar/

Does anyone have a screen grab of the page before it was altered?

Well here's something. Alec, here's how the internet works.

I bet Hollywood is busting its ass to hire Lord Alec as a film producer now,

I'd still like to know if anyone has a screen grab of his original blog, or even a quote, about paying Tony Todd.

Dennis just posted that over on the IStandWithCBS fb group.

I found this comment in this thread, which quotes it.

Unfortunately Tony Todd will not be back, though. Tony opted not to come back when we wouldn't pay the $15,000 day rate he was asking. (We paid a fraction of that for Prelude.) With Ramirez having a tiny part in Axanar, we really couldn’t justify that kind of expense. Andorian!

Has the blog also been changed to remove the pictures of Alec being served by the paperwork CBS/Paramount and celebrating with sushi, or am I just looking in the wrong place?

Still there...

Thanks. Was trying to show someone who wasn't quite believing the story...

And it still says, "So how do you deal with getting served a lawsuit by CBS? Celebrate with Sushi!". Last week Alec said they weren't celebrating.

Pew pew pew!

It's what 'the fans' really want! That's true Star Trek! Those Abrams films and their space battles and ground battles...beh!

(The pot must have met the kettle by now...lol)

I like Tony Todd mentioning how Peters has no accountability, and that Axanar should have been completed long ago. Not to mention, the problems he -Todd - saw before the lawsuit.

Peters reminds me of the director of Boondock Saints: So full of himself until reality takes him down a few notches.

Well it's been screencapped for posterity in the event they edit the blog.

And this, too...

That blog's been re-written more than the Axanar script.
