King's Quest Fan Project The Silver Lining Is Back 61

LoTonah writes "After eight years of development and a Cease & Desist from Vivendi, King's Quest fan project The Silver Lining is back in action. From the website: 'We are extremely happy to announce that our project, The Silver Lining, will definitely see the light of day! In a wonderful turn of events, Activision reached out to the Phoenix Online team a few months ago with a desire to revisit their decision regarding The Silver Lining. After negotiations, the C&D has been officially rescinded, and Phoenix Online has been granted a non-commercial license to release The Silver Lining! Our team is ecstatic about this, and as hard as we've worked for eight years, it's the tireless belief and support of you, our fans, that has made this possible.' The first episode of the project is due to be released on July 10."

Comment Why did they wait so long? (Score 1) 861

I heard that the Hurt Locker film was on the torrent sites a while ago-- like more than a year before the academy awards-- did they ever figure out who released the copy online? it seems to me that the person that the producers should be going after should be the person on their own staff who decided to release the film-- the crew isn't that big and they should be able to identify who had access to the edit that was released. Why didn't this producer make all this noise when it happened? why did he/they wait until a year after the fact to make all this noise about this? it seems strange that there is no comment about it being leaked online when it was helping build a following, but when the film doesn't make a 1/4 a billion dollars he gets upset and decides to sue everyone. I have to wonder if the producer leaked the film to grow a following-- I would assume that it wouldn't have won the academy award without it.
