Comic-Con pulls the plug on superhero fan films
According to this article on Cinescape, Warner Brothers is arguing that by showing fan-films like Batman: Dead End, the San Diego Comic-Con is profiting from unauthorized use of copyright material.
To their credit, WB does seem to recognize the creativity and talent that goes into these films, and is apparently looking for a way to allow screenings to take place elsewhere. If you haven't seen Dead End, check it out--Schumacher, this means you!
