Why should the average movie goer care? Because it's movie news! Two of the iconic films, and Matrix in particular, were created by people other than those who purported to write them from scratch.
You don't think that's news? That's a scandal! What if it turns out JK Rowling didn't write her books? Or George Lucas didn't invent Star Wars?? Why would this not be news to the average movie goer, and I mean screw movie goer, average American? Is there such abysmal apathy that no one would care that they've been hoodwinked?... ... Oh wait..hang on ..Nov 2004...Yeah' you're right. Most Americans won't give a sh** as long as they get their next big blockbuster movie. ;-p -Gel -----Original Message----- From: G To the mainstream American movie viewer, they don't really care where the story came from. To the person who had their idea ripped off, it's a big deal, and the average American would say "yeah, if the story was ripped off, give the person with the original idea his/her due royalties". But beyond that.....why is it such a big story to the average movie viewer? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - CFDynamics http://www.cfdynamics.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:140192 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
