CBS Issues ‘Stifling’ Guidelines for ‘Star Trek’ Fan Films

TheWrap: The producer of the “Star Trek” fan film “Axanar” has responded to the new guidelines set forth by Paramount and CBS for future fan projects. “These guidelines appear to have been tailor-made to shut down all of the major fan productions and stifle fandom,” executive producer Alec Peters said in a statement. “In no way can that be seen as supportive or encouraging, which is very disheartening.”
