“independent filmmakers, parodists and other ‘counter-cultural’ artists who create separate or derivative works that may be related to, inspired by or comment upon the pop culture events that dominate the national Cineplex and, by extension the attitudes, perspectives and behaviors of the populace.”

And here I thought thefilms ALREADY were a parody . Even if that’s the case, a separate parody film calledwas scheduled to reach theaters last year when Lionsgate and Summit had on the docket . However, a cease-and-desist order prevented the producers at Behind The Lines from releasing their comedy, and now EW says they're filing a lawsuit to seek damages (and free up the restraints for future projects).The lawsuit – a 219-page complaint that’s seeking $500 million in damages – says:The site says that Lionsgate and Summit have registered so many-related trademarks that it potentially creates an intellectual property monopoly, which the lawsuit would love to break down. And a communications law professor at the University of Georgia tells EW that Behind the Lines has a pretty good chance, because Lionsgate would have a difficult time proving in court that the existence ofwas illegal. Likely, both sides would pour a lot of money into a fruitless court case, giving the studios the advantage because they have deeper pockets for a legal battle.The team behindlikely won’t earn that $500 million, but maybe they’ll get their movie released. At the time, they had a trailer put together. Check it out below. Does it make you want to see the movie … eventually?
