Fox Wins Watchmen Lawsuit

A bit comic heavy of late, I know; sue me: it's the holidays. Now some bad news for those like myself who were looking forward to this flick:

If the lawyers at 20th Century Fox really wanted to kill Watchmen when they filed a copyright claim against the Warner Bros. production, they got the perfect ammunition as a Christmas gift today from a Los Angeles judge.

Deadline Hollywood Daily is reporting that Judge Gary A. Feess will rule soon in favor of Fox -- granting their copyright claim over the franchise.

That's coal in the stocking of any Watchmen fan who was looking forward to seeing this film premiere in March -- if ever.

More details will emerge after the judge publishes his ruling after the Christmas holiday.

Dude: weak.
