Huh, that's pretty interesting. I figure if the resources come from any copyrighted media, whether they're characters or models or images, then using them in any way that doesn't come with Word of God endorsement as canon all falls under fanworks. Some I find more distasteful than others, but I'd be hard-pressed to say they aren't all created by fans of the original media for private non-profit use, which is how I define fanworks.

As for the rest, I couldn't say exactly where the line is between regular and total conversion fanworks. Whatever it is that allows the Fifty Shades of Grey author to make a profit without being sued for infringement despite it being common knowledge how her work began life (probably going back to resource usage).

Anyway, I can't say your perspective isn't consistent, so I guess I agree to disagree.

From what I heard it's because FSoG takes place in the real world (so no vampires and werewolves) and all the characters are too bland use common character templates it's apparently not similar enough to count.

I'm not a laywer though so take this with a grain of salt.

Yeah, that makes sense, swap out the names and most recognizable elements, I can see how just knowing it's an AU of something else wouldn't be enough to complain about copyright.
