Pixar/Disney in "Monsters Inc" Ownership Scuffle

Posted by chrisd on from the is-this-thing-on dept.

blamanj writes "According to a SF Chronicle story this morning, Pixar has been sued by artist Stanley Mouse. Mouse created a movie treatment titled "Excuse My Dust", which was set in "Monster City," where the animated monster characters worked for the "Monster Corporation of America." One of the characters was a a green, wisecracking, ambulatory eyeball. Furthermore, the lawsuit claims that a story artist from Pixar visited Mouse in 2000, and discussed Mouse's work."

    Be critical of these fellows:

    FREEHOLD IA - - One Christian mother is in the hospital and 256 teenage boys have been baptized in turpentine

    The mother, lets wait for that one.
    The 256 boys: (some computer geek's joke?) this is just purely satan inspired

    3-foot wrought-iron cage

    This can surely help any poor bastard, along with:
    five Sears Diehard car batteries they had used as part of her treatment.

    Insane? Yes, the insane hospital is insane.

    permanent paint that wouldn't come off when she licked it.
    This is kind of evil isn't it? You DO NOT LICK YOUR SON'S TESTICLE!

    Remember the woman who was put in the hospital...
    I told her to stick her hand in the toaster until I got there

    Some how I do not think that is the result of this movie.

    Mrs. O'Christian then called the police immediately

    Umm, for what... maybe you - because YOU WERE LICKING THE DAMN TESTICLE!

    young Timmy was taken to Pastor's den
    For what? Option 1 or Option 2

    Yes, I can CLEARLY SEE YOU ARE A FCKED UP CHURCH!
