An interesting website to say the least. I honestly haven't gone and read everything but if she is the creator then she should be entitled to something.

OMG, come on, even if she did create a story similar to thoses movies, i dont think her ideas were totally stolen, people can come up with ideas that are similar, just one of these parties has the will and way to make money from it.

Anyway, I thought the Oracle was the mother of the Matrix. The Architect said so, and he wouldn't lie. "What do you think I am, human?" :P

What I find wrong with this, is that she claims she wrote the terminator. But "The third eye" was copyrighted in 1983, and "The Terminator" was released in 1984. Now it takes more that 1 year to make a movie, the magnitude of 'The Terminator', it would have infact taken several years, which makes the movie in production at the time she got the copyright.
Also she waited way to long for the law suit against the 'terminator'. The statute only lasts 3 years, and she waited 30. Not to mention that the reason she gave for the long wait, was that she was 'unaware of the extent of the copyright infringements'. I'm sure that she would have seen the movies, and if she truly wrote it originally, then she should have instantly known the similarities. Besides, with the Matrix, Larry and Andy said they came up with the idea from Japanese anime cartoons. Does that give the anime writers a reason to sue?

Writing a script != making a movie.
Writing a script requires a pen & paper, inspiration and possibly a few brewskies. Making a movie requires a script (see above), actors, props, sets, locations, studios, money, post production, distribution, etc...

All i can say is SCAM
A donation of $1, $5 or whatever you can both afford and your heart compelz you to give would do more than help her cover her mounting legal expenses; I'm sure Sophia herself would also be most appreciative. Her bank information for direct deposits will be available shortly, however until that time if you'd like to help Sophia with a donation of any amount (believe me, multiplied by all fanz around the world, it'll add up!), please send all checks, bank checks or money orderz made out and sent to: Sophia Stewart PO Box 165153 Salt Lake City, UT 84116 |
