Slashdot.org FireflyFirefly Fans Fight Back Against UniversalCowboyNeal Saturday 28 October 2006, by Webmaster Gossi writes : "What happens when a film studio and a fanbase get into bed? Fans of Joss Whedon’s Firefly, and the movie by Universal Studios - Serenity - are not amused. After being encouraged to viral market Serenity, the studio has started legal action against fans (demanding $9000 in retroactive licensing fees in one case and demanding fan promotion stop), and going after Cafepress. The fans response? Retroactively invoice Universal for their services." |
