annwfynI am not sure if this is a wise move or not, but tonight pierot and I are going to the cinema to see Underworld: Evolution. We'll be going to the 21.40 showing at Surrey Quays.
Would anyone care to join us?
There's *winces* a back flipping girl in a corset. She looks kinda hot. How can it go wrong?*
*answers on an LJ comment, please.

Have you seen the first one?
And does anyone know what happen to the legal case over the first one? I didn't want WW to be in the right but if it had stopped hte first one escaping onto screens that'd have been a good thing.
You know what is worse? I know I'll definately watch the second one at some point...

Oh, I've been asked to ask you if there is any chance you might be in London at the beginning of March, for sad larp related reasons. Alex D's vamp PC has a regnant who is an NPC, and the NPC is due to be holding court on the first weekend of March.

Blregh. Getting out of town for a few days would probably do me good.

Date: 2006-01-20 02:16 pm (UTC)"they sued Sony because the plot of the movie was clearly derivative of piece of Nancy Collins-penned World of Darkness short fiction. Sony laughed at them, until WW introduced a tape of a Comic-Con panel the Underworld crew had participated in - where they talked about how much they drew on White Wolf books for mood and inspiration. The case was settled out-of-court - nobody's talking (NDAs), but it looks like WW got paid. "

At least one point they argued breach of copyright on was Selene being Lucita.
Rumour abounds that the original script considerably resembled the new WOD..... with the Lycan/Vamp thing from the old WOD thrown in. I do not know for sure if that was the case.
