 The site, [[https://axanarsporking.wordpress.com|Axanar: The Sporkings]], walks through the screenplay daily, roughly a scene at a time, commenting on the script producer [[Alec Peters]] called "fully revised and locked" just before he was [[lawsuit|sued]] by Star Trek's owners for [[copyright_infringement]]. The site, [[https://axanarsporking.wordpress.com|Axanar: The Sporkings]], walks through the screenplay daily, roughly a scene at a time, commenting on the script producer [[Alec Peters]] called "fully revised and locked" just before he was [[lawsuit|sued]] by Star Trek's owners for [[copyright_infringement]].

-**AxaMonitor**: How good are the prospects for Axanar Lite™ as a shortened version of this story in the faux documentary format of Prelude to Axanar? ((The lawsuit settlement allows Peters to make two 15-minute episodes comprising the //Axanar// story; he must do so without any public crowdfunding.)) \\+**AxaMonitor**: How good are the prospects for [[Axanar Lite]]™ as a shortened version of this story in the faux documentary format of Prelude to Axanar?

 **Stark**: One of the consistent weaknesses in //Axanar// is that the script favors telling over showing.  The faux documentary format of //Prelude// will turn that weakness into a strength.  Additionally, I don't see any challenge in fitting the Axanar story into thirty minutes.  The [version] 7.3 script is inflated by constant repetition, frequently we get the same information from both the Starfleet and Klingon perspectives. **Stark**: One of the consistent weaknesses in //Axanar// is that the script favors telling over showing.  The faux documentary format of //Prelude// will turn that weakness into a strength.  Additionally, I don't see any challenge in fitting the Axanar story into thirty minutes.  The [version] 7.3 script is inflated by constant repetition, frequently we get the same information from both the Starfleet and Klingon perspectives.
