    Geesh, every time a successful author comes out with a book or a script, they get sued from some obscure person who claims to have had the idea first. It happened with JK Rowling. Clearly, these people just want some of the money that is being generated. I am wondering if these sort of frivolous lawsuits can be curtailed??

    it does smell of greed

    'Zhou thought there was no market for his novel and signed a contract to have it published online.

    He says the £97m he is seeking is for breach of copyright.

    "I realise that no one knows me in China but I insist on fighting for my copyright," he told Sky News.'

    so how i EYWAs name could camero have heard of him...wsa it in english?

    whoosh....theat negotiation was over Terminator and Harlan Ellison.

    He did not steal that either. The reason for the settlement is explained in the biography of James Cameron "The Futurist". In summary it was another frivolous lawsuit but Cameron was nearly broke and didnt want to spend all his Terminator paycheck on the lawyers.
