Watchmen Legal Issues
This has been brewing for a while, but I ignored it until it hit the New York Times. 20th Century Fox filed a lawsuit against Warner Brothers back in February claiming they still own the rights to Watchmen. Basically, this means the release date for Watchmen could be pushed back while the two companies fight it out. With all the hype surrounding this movie it amazes me that 20th Century Fox didn’t intervene long ago. The fact that they didn’t step forward earlier is part of Warner Brothers defense argument.
