Buckaroo Banzai Copyright Scuffle Fallout: Kevin Smith's Involvement Has Been Ionized
"There are times when verbal ingenuity is not enough," Buckaroo Bonzai himself has said, and that seems to be the case here. Kevin Smith has exited the Amazon tv series project in the wake of the November 23 copyright lawsuit filing by MGM against Buckaroo Bonzai film director W.D. Richter.
Pity. Smith is perfect for the project, now that I think about it. Ah well. If it ain't one thing, it's another, but the future still does begin tomorrow.
There hasn't been a single ruling in MGM copyright lawsuit for a Buckaroo Bonzai TV series, but there's already two clear casualties: Kevin Smith and the show itself, at least for now. After the studio filed legal paperwork on November 23 against the 1984 movie's director W.D. Richter and writer Earl Mac Rauch, the Clerks creator went online today to declare "I'm no longer involved" with the proposed Amazon TV series version.
"This is not what I signed up for," Smith said of the legal issues while praising MGM in other respects. "I was caught off-guard [by the lawsuit]. I literally had no idea. It blows, man, because that's the closest I've [come] to having my own show so far."
