Who else thinks the fandom will be disappointed by Journey of the Spark?

@@RainySkies,

 

EQD doesn't report everything.

 

They're still looking into the cease and desist letter, and so far it looks to be very very real.

 

They got the letter a month or so ago.

Never really cared all that much for fan animations. Not that I hate them or anything, I just don't go out of my way to see them. Apathy. So I probably wont even see it, let alone be disappointing by it.

@@Shift, Check the date of the C&D letter. It was from January 23, 2014. The fact that the project's continuing despite a half-year-old warning makes things really weird.

 

To make it weirder, you have the email address from where it was sent from along with a very pixellated image of the logo. I'm not a lawyer, and one of Golenbock's clients is Hasbro, but wouldn't the C&D come from a lawyer who works with Hasbro's legal departments rather than a third-party?

I haven't even heard of this so called "Journey of the Spark" though it goes to show how much I keep up with these fan-made animations and the sort. Though I do like to watch a couple of them on Youtube if I come across it.

As for the C&D's, I'm happy to just watch the show, it's a shame people's animations are getting blocked though.

Well kids, remember if you expect the worst, everything else is a pleaseant surprise.

Took the words right out of my mouth, lol.

 

However, as a Director of my MLP Fan Film: The Day Equestria Stood Still and a Halo Machinima Director..............i usually like to view other works, however judging with Journey of the Spark plus Last Stand of Harmony............they look "ok".

@@Dark Qiviut,

 

They've actually gotten 3 the past year or so, but they've been ignoring them.

Basically, yeah. It's fascinating how they survived this long.

I don't think it's going to be bad, per se, I just think people are gonna get disappointed from how hyped it was.

 

Depends on how people manage their expectations on that one. Writers In Harmony seemed to have survived unscathed thus far. It is possible that the team behind JOTS have succeeded as well. It's always a 'fluid' process.

Rather a unique and ballsy way to combat C&D. Just ignore it and let's see if company actually even knows you exist to even care enough to send more than just a letter.

Yep. Let's hope they survive long enough for the movie to finish production.

Didn't Journey of the Spark get a cease and desist email?

 

...yeah, sorry to rain on your parade, guys.

What's that copyright law of the internet again? Oh, yeah!

"Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use."

 

Even if this doesn't apply to Journey of the Spark. I don't think it's going ANYWHERE, When the same thing happened to Fighting is Magic, a tribute edition was made, which shows that cease and desists merely delay the inevitable.

I don't even know anything about what this movie is gonna be about, though.

They've been playing it smart by keeping quiet. So long as they don't try to get any publicity outside of our little side of the fandom, they should be fine.
