Woe to the fucking wicked.

I asked earlier in Buffy, but it's for a fic, so I'll try here.

Buffy comments that the scythe kills things 3 ways. I've got axe and stake. Any thoughts on the 3rd?

It shoots fire?

Ack. Didn't need to say it twice.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Thanks, askye. That was the incident I was thinking of.

Katie--your welcome. I don't understand why people think it's okay to go up and hand actors slash fic or RPS fic or ask them to hold anti twinscest signs while the fans take their pictures.

That's just WRONG.

Yeah. Well, in this case it's just one vid, and it's in Stargate, so frankly I wouldn't be that worried - I can't think of any incidents with TPTB and copyright for that show. Still, I felt like I'd be falling down in my Duty To The Fannish Community if I didn't point out that some folks think that's a really, really bad idea.

(It's kind of dorky to feel like I have a Duty To The Fannish Community, isn't it? Oh well.)

Frankly I'm sure that most of the actors on genre shows who want to know can, by this point. It's not like the existence of fanfic or slash is a secret, and actors can work google just like the rest of us. It just seems, you know, unwise to wave it in their faces.

The problem with showing vids to people isn't the showing them slash it's that vids use clips from the show and songs.

So it's in their face that this is copyrighted material that's being used. With fanfic you can get around the copyright issues much easier but vidding is different.

Look at the way companies go after sites that have Copyrighted images or sounds and that's what vids are, and they use music, and we all know how hard the RIAA is cracking down on downloading music, using songs in vids is much more illegal than just downloading a song.

Oh, yeah, I know it's a copyright issue. I was just jumping to the "sign my NC-17 zine, please!" kind of thing in my head with the other bit.
