I don't agree that you can't sue unless you are about to make money. What determines the criteria for "about to make money"? I believe you can sue anyone that has acted upon something they did not have the rights to. You can sue even if they make no money from it. (I could be wrong about this, but I know they could have sued earlier either way, I mean the point of filming a movie is to make money, regardless of what stage the filming is in). But either way, they are suing them now and that means that WB and FOX have to settle or risk losing a lot more money.
FOX has already lost face with me, after pulling this kind of stunt and going to court and demanding that they pull the movie.
I think that this WILL delay the movie, but that they will also strike a deal.

We will most likely see this released in the summer or fall of 2009.

Congratulations. You have no clue what you're talking about.

I'm sure if it was you being ripped off by someone, you'd have very different feelings.
