Well it has been a year since the Underworld Lawsuit was filed. Whatever
became of it? Has it ended yet? what was the outcome?

It's been settled. White Wolf is involved in the production of the
sequel somehow, from what I hear.

We likely won't hear any official announcement about it, ever, since
"don't publicize that we gave you concessions" is usually one of the
conditions of settlements like this.

Huh. That's better than I'd hoped for...assuming it's more than just a
credit, maybe we'll get to see some Wraith on Changeling action!^^

Dex,
who knows people who refused to watch the movie because of that
lawsuit...

Buffy. Spike is trying to convince someone that he's evil.

But where DID we hear this?

And is there any linkage available?

I don't remember.

Yeah, and if I had a nickel for every time a 'credible source' sold me
a line of flour, I could _buy_ Sony. : )
Thanks for the false alarm, though.

Yes, but does anyone have a link to a recent statement to the effect
that the lawsuit was settled, as Stephen is claiming to have heard from
some "credible" - but apparently highly forgettable - dude on a board?
That's what I really want to know, here.
