Hope you will benefit from it, also in a financial way, and the whole affair won't stress you out too much. These big Hollywood execs have to stop their practices, stop ripping off the real creative individuals. Maybe they thought that if they steal from someone living in another country and a single independent guy, not related to the establishment, they would get away with it and no one will notice. I hope this case will show them different and will help to protect the creative individuals from hacks like STD writers and producers in the future.<br />PS: ST Discovery is a truly crap show. Never been a Trekkie myself but the original series as well as Generations make the plot and characters of the new one waffer thinUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798631181204647429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2077224294187340375.post-54166958913878610312019-03-07T15:34:05.136-08:002019-03-07T15:34:05.136-08:00They should be paying youThey should be paying youAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13697745417529531814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2077224294187340375.post-32081688126393461512019-01-25T09:37:42.844-08:002019-01-25T09:37:42.844-08:00I would say there hasn't been a new idea in Ho...I would say there hasn't been a new idea in Hollywood in ages, especially with Trek. It seems obvious your work was borrowed from, more obvious than mine, but I wrote fan fiction prior to 2008's reboot, and there items in that movie that were in my book published well before 2008. Like blowing up Romulus resulting in a time change, and a parachute fail free fall transporter rescue. What's amazing to me is fans are sued if they use, but if 'they' use it's free game?solarchariothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03367046953723685942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2077224294187340375.post-78952660934874230222018-12-24T02:58:51.632-08:002018-12-24T02:58:51.632-08:00If he is sueing everything using the Tardigrades, ...If he is sueing everything using the Tardigrades, funny i didnt see star trek online in the list of people being sued using it since star trek online just came out with the Age Of Discovery stuff and the Tardigrade pet players get in-game.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608282453353411681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2077224294187340375.post-20709781356850228882018-11-14T00:08:46.372-08:002018-11-14T00:08:46.372-08:00Thanks for share this postThanks for share this post <a href="https://onhaxu.com/panda-internet-security-2018-crack.html" rel="nofollow"> </a><br />Hamzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08689300777401281613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2077224294187340375.post-25594328579661684002018-09-10T10:09:27.744-07:002018-09-10T10:09:27.744-07:00Hey if you need fuel in your court case proving th...Hey if you need fuel in your court case proving that it was not coincidence and not happenstance that your stories align, bring in a Trekkie expert and have them explain how Discovery is completely departing from the Trek theme.

It IS NOT Star Trek! I cursed that show for a long time, vocally I said "who made this?!" Its just so off that it makes no sense to call it Star Trek. I got the sense CBS and whomever they hired to make it were desperate, and they were getting more desperate as time wore on because Trekkies hated it. Now it makes complete sense.

This is some seriously troubling similarity.<br /><br />I don't know if it can be dismissed as a coincidence. Maybe, but tardigrades are hardly a widespread TV trope. Note how the defenders of the big guys are de-emphasizing the big element, "both games depict interstellar space travel via a freaking tardigrade" element in favor of the strawman of "hey you didn't invent POC characters."

Fuller has been planning this since before his return to Trek was publicized in 2015. I think POC protagonists, and diverse LGBT couples are finally getting their day. Sporogenesis, M-11 and Tardigrades are not new sci-fi elements. Also, is that a Transporter effect, like the ones on Star Trek? I hope no one gets sued.Ian J.

They even named the engineer after the actual scientist that inspired the spore drive. <br /><br />You could use vague statements to say that he stole this idea from Starcraft, due to tardigrade-like creatures that are capable of space travel and can take other units with them. I'm sure he didn't steal that idea, and neither did Star Trek - it's just an obvious choice based on their clear inspirations and actual science.Cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11902639534632731433noreply@blogger.com
