So sit back and geek out in typical alien tradition. Its time for decision!
Just remember, take it easy and enjoy Kellog's Gornflakes!
Axanar Productions, the kickstarter production company have settled with Paramount Pictures and CBS Studios in the Star Trek copyright infringement lawsuit. The trouble began in 2015 after filmmaker Axanar shared some movie plans giving a Star Trek teaser shown at San Diego Comic Con in 2014. News of the "four year war" erupting between the Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire is exciting news in Star Trek. All the rest is in the video.
Its hardly surprising Paramount and CBS Studios found out. So now speculation is mounting over at Deadline.com pointing to the CBS All Access series Star Trek: Discovery covering the same material.
On January 4th a Federal judge denied "FAIR USE" as a defense and scheduled January
31st as the trial date. One mans creation - Star Trek's Creator Gene Roddenberry said
to Johnathan Frakes (Commander Riker TNG) many year ago.
"In the 24th century there
will be no hunger, there will be no greed, and all the children will know how to read.
So Trekker to Warrior - Lets rejoice. Star Trek isn't over! Gene
Roddenberry, Paramount, Axanar and theres us, the Fans we're all friends here. Star-Trek-Lives (1975) on in each of us. So it was coming down to the jury on the 31st Jan
but then Alec Peters settles out of court. Why? Legalize folks, fan film guidelines
and tests - extrinsic and intrinsic. All words, rhetoric and copyrights. Thankfully Keenser must have been hiding somewhere because a warpcore breach was happily contained.
Axanar Productions was created by lifelong
Star Trek fans who raised $1.4 million to celebrate their love for Star Trek. However
there is another side to this lawsuit. Fan-filmGuidelines have been revisited. It would appear two 15-minute episodes are the maximum amateurs can produce now as a combined "Part 1 and 2" on Youtube! not to mention a cap of $50,000 per film in fundraising donations.
The Editor’s note on Trekmovie States
It’s been over a year since a lawsuit was brought against the never made Star Trek fan
film Axanar (including the previously released Prelude to Axanar) and its creators,
namely producer Alec Peters. The suit, which was brought about after an unprecedented
$1.4 million was raised from fan donations and Axanar store purchases (and
subsequently spent, much of it allegedly not on the film itself), has changed the
landscape of Star Trek fan films. The lawsuit prompted the creation of specific and
restrictive fan film guidelines by CBS and Paramount, causing many fan film makers to
pivot (removing direct references to copyrighted Star Trek works) or end production
altogether.
STARFLEET FIRST STRIKE SQUADRON
On the 20th January 2017, both sides settled out of court.
I guess trekkers, we'll never see the like of Star Trek New Voyages again and these rules will be an adjustment for all fan film-makers.
Have you got any favorite, celebrated Star Trek feature length fan films worth watching again? If so, which ones do you like most?
Feel like fighting with Starfleets First Strike Squadron in the "Four Year War"
The 89th Oscar Academy Awards is honoring the best films for 2016 and is set to kick off on Sunday, February 26 2017. So is Star Trek Beyond in with a good chance of winning? OR Star Wars for that matter? Winning what? (I hear you cry,) all right, all right! Apparently trekkers, Trekcore is reporting that Joel Harlow and Richie Alonzo created the cool alien atmosphere for Starbase Yorktown.
So hilarious when Dr McCoy walks onto the USS Enterprise NCC 1701 bridge after Chekov declares: "WOW, That is impressive" "Awe shes a beauty isn't she?" replies Scotty "What a Damn Monstrosity! - Couldn't we just rent some space on a planet?
So now Suicide Squad and a Man Called Ove have to set their Prosthetics on MAXIMUM to beat Star Trek Beyond's high Alien standard.
So okay, In the visual effects preliminary. there were 20 movies. Star trek Beyond got shortlisted yet again just like Star Trek Into Darkness.
Yet Star Trek Beyond did qualify for an Oscar Nomination! Fact. Its true!!! Curiously Star Trek 2009 won an Oscar for makeup and now deja vu, we're back for Best Makeup and Hairstyle in 2017!
Did Star Trek Beyond deserve a final VISUAL EFFECTS Oscar Nomination?
