The Star Trek: Axanar Settlement: Seven Solutions to the Issue
Channel: Continuum Meditations
Date: 2017-02-17

In the wake of the Star Trek: Axanar lawsuit settlement, CBS and Paramount Pictures imposed a set of "guidelines" allegedly meant to assist independent Star Trek filmmakers from stepping too far outside what they deem acceptable. But it is their rules that are unacceptable. In this video I pose seven solutions to the problem.

I do not own nor have any rights, nor stake, in Axanar Productions. My use of their film in this video does not constitute an endorsement of my opinions on the part of Axanar Productions, but is solely my position with respect to the CBS/Paramount settlement and the guidelines the two corporations jointly published.
