Watchmen Lawsuit Pt. 22: The Latest Updates
There are two important items to report today. As noted by Jeff Trexler at Newsarama, Warner Brother’s response to Fox’s Application for a Permanent Injunction requests that the presiding judge move the January 20, 2009 hearing to Monday, January 12, 2009. Warner Brothers’ request explains that “because the release date for Watchmen is less than two months away and Warner Bros. must imminently commit to spending tens of millions of dollars on its marketing and promotional campaign for the picture, time is of the essence, and every day counts.” Second, Judge Feess has issued an order implementing the joint stipulation agreement between Fox and Warner Brothers. Anyone who still thinks the parties in this case are bluffing their way to a settlement might want to reconsider their position.
