Correction: BMW owns the rights to use the Rolls-Royce name for automobiles, but the name itself is owned by Rolls-Royce plc, the aviation firm.

@matigo If CBS had half a brain, which is questionable, they would have given Axanar permission to make the film but retained worldwide rights to distribution. They could have had a glorious Star Trek film for a song, and made a small fortune in the process.

@matigo I don't think I'll ever forgive CBS for killing Axanar. It could have been so good.
@matigo As long as he learns the wisdom of Commander Shran: "Never push the pinkskins to the thin ice." :-)
