Stop with the remakes without crediting the original creative teams, entertainment companies. Geez Louise, this is ridiculous. I hope this guy gets credit and compensation. No one has filed any lawsuits regarding the Disney live-action remakes, have they? (If it was posted here, I just don't remember!)

The guy lost his lawsuit because he didn't claim the Muppet Babies Bible he made in his 2003 bankruptcy, so he technically doesn't "own" it in the eyes of the law.

He would have lost anyway.. Disney would have dragged this for years.

OT, but whatever happened to the Goldie and bear lawsuit? Is it not on Disney+ now? Or what became of the lawsuit with that?

[blackcauldron85]

I can't find anything other than the announcement of the lawsuit... And it was supposed to be on Disney+ starting in November but I haven't confirmed if it's actually on there.

The lawsuit has been revived.
