Fox, Warners File Settlement Notice for Watchmen
Posted by Dr. Cole Abaius (cole.abaius@filmschoolrejects.com) on January 15, 2009
A few weeks ago, I wrote some common sense about the Watchmen situation since it seemed like the crazy had reached a fever pitch. Tell comic book fans that their long-awaited film masterpiece might not make it into theaters (even though it will) and you get the 30-year old, male equivalent of telling the world that the next Twilight film won’t see the light of day.
Today we’re getting word from IESB that Warner Bros. and Fox have filed a Notice of Settlement Status and Request for Further Hearing – which is the legal equivalent of kissing and making up but still needing some marriage counseling.
Basically, they’ve resolved a few issues (although it’s unclear which) and have requested a chambers hearing Today, January 15th at 3:30pm (PST) which means I have to stay at work past 5:30pm Austin time in order to keep you current on the situation instead of going to a topless happy hour located convenient to the brand new FSR International Headquarters. I’ll expect Thank You Cards from you are forthcoming.
