Roger Dean sues James Cameron

[Beeston]

So like.. when I saw this I instantly remembered that Dan, Dave and Kemp called this all the way back in February 2012 in Crimson Conversations. Nice call.

And here's the link to the legal forms, apparently.

I really hope he wins. The information against him (James Cameron) really looks like the case is against him, but of course, Hollywood means money, and money means a whole army of lawyers. But if Roger Dean wins that will be a huge wake-up call for everyone, in that it doesn't matter who you are, the art community has rights too and working artists aren't push-overs or able to be taken for granted/swept under the rug.

This should be an interesting case. Dean doesn't really have much hope of winning. Maybe he's just looking for publicity and a settlement. Even if Dean has a strong case, he's still probably outgunned. There's also another scary scenario. It's not impossible that if Dean wins, Cameron and Fox passes the responsibility down to the concept artist.

Haha didn't have idea that Cameron works on any sequels. With 4 movies there going to be a lot of money to fight for :D
