Atlanta, GA, 5 September 2003 - White Wolf, Inc. and Nancy A. Collins yesterday filed suit in US District court in Atlanta, Georgia against defendants Sony Pictures, Screen Gems and Lakeshore Entertainment, alleging 17 counts of copyright infringement for the film Underworld, set for release on September 19. White Wolf alleges that Underworld characters, theme and setting are based on White Wolf’s award winning games Vampire: The Masquerade® and Werewolf: The Apocalypse, both set in White Wolf’s fictional World of Darkness®. Further, Collins alleges that Underworld’s script is based on her 1994 story Love of Monsters, published by White Wolf and also set in the World of Darkness.
All things considered, I think Nancy Collins has more of a right to complain than White Wolf. After seeing the film, which I still hope to do, I may change my mind. There are some screen shots that just scream Elysium.
Thievery Corporation is good to listen to at work
Panacea is not.
It's about time for a new haircut. What should I get? Opinions?
