Apparently they ripped off their entire story of The Matrix from a manuscript this woman had shown them from an ad they placed in 1983 for new sci-fi stories.
She won her case in court but didn't get any media coverage for the simple fact that AOL-Time warner owns the media itself.

She won the case, did she? You're sure about that are you? Like, really, really confident about it?

That site looks legit Rust, I wouldn't doubt it. I mean, if you read it on the intraweb, it must be true.

That's the filing. What is true is that on September 27, 2004, US District Court Judge Margaret M. Morrow made a preliminary ruling that the RICO element of the suit would not be thrown out on purely legal grounds, though some of the charges were dropped against Warner Bros. and 20th Century Fox.
Nothing has been decided yet.

I'm wondering what Finawin was looking for at a site named 'hotghettomess'.
Straight-outta-Compton bukkake?

Better to watch the Matrix 60,000 times in a row than to watch one piece of shit Indy film, so that everyone will think I'm cool.

Hey if you chain a bunch of other profanities together I think you would multiply the hilarity 10 fold.
Oh shit I forgot! we're not 10 years old either.

Not being 10 would explain how you were dumb enough to believe some hack site, and then blame AOL for 'controlling the media', without doing something as simple as Googling on her name and 'matrix lawsuit'.
It's called being lazy. Cong you.
