Create your own work. Don’t steal, be inspired by. And as a final note, stop exploiting black women.
After a six year dispute, prolific writer and profound spiritualist, Sophia Stewart has received justice for copyright infringement and racketeering and will finally recover damages from the films, The Matrix I, II and III, as well as The Terminator and its sequels. Yes, you heard that correctly – the entire Matrix & Terminator franchises, and her suspected pay off is expected to be the highest in history – an estimated 2.5 billion.
Her case is a true landmark, and far too uncommon as countless creatives are exploited by the snake-like dealings of the movie industry. Here’s a recap of her triumphant journey by way of George2.0:
“Stewart filed her case in 1999, after viewing the Matrix, which she felt had been based on her manuscript, ‘The Third Eye,’ copyrighted in 1981. In the mid-eighties Stewart had submitted her manuscript to an ad placed by the Wachowski Brothers, requesting new sci-fi…

This story of Sophia Stewart has been debunked but Can you sue someone for being and inspiration to them? silly question…
I do wonder if she is somehow connected to a person who tried to get me caught up in a rico lawsuit over the matrix.
I was a part of the original matrix fan club that moved from the Warner Brothers site when they deleted posts without telling the fans they were going to. As some point there was this guy who was pursuing a RICO lawsuit against the production who had emails a few of the members, but with me he had actually called me.
But this was just a later symptom of what all happened before matrix was released.
in 1996 I started a web page via mindspring.com (now earthlink) and was on usenet amiga newsgroups looking for programmer help on a project that would be beneficial to the platform. I got a lot of resistance from flamers and trolls and mindspring got a lot of complaints about me but their investigation showed I wasn’t a problem, so those who didn’t like me anywhere on the internet (mindspring investigation communicated this to me) tried to hack mindsprings ticketing bot to make it look like it was me complaining about me, but mindspring knew better. Finally they dropped their “Blue Ribbon Free Speech” stand and ban me to suit the complainers because investigating me was costing them more than what I was paying for their service. I then got an earthlink account which simply didn’t bother with such complaints (eventually they bought out mindspring leaving me with two earthlink accounts..
Anyways the flamers and trolls and my efforts are all found in dejanews or what is now Google groups (who bought out dejanews.)

One of my first posts to an amiga newsgroup 1997 (describing the 9 commands of the virtual interaction configuration [parrallel in concept to the main commanders fo the Nebchadnezzar] , after a rant on the software industry deception. You need to expand the first post a couple times)

Someone decided to make up a weekly FAQ in effort to discredit me. I tried to find the first posting of this as it was posted many more times and there is plenty more in the battlement of ….agent smith…. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!search/tim$20rue$20FAQ$20/comp.sys.amiga.misc/kV3RvOrq1sQ/XB-x4MzXniEJ
Of course there is my earlier presence on the internet http://threeseas.net/mind/EarlyAmigaInfluence.html
And eventually I coined “Abstraction Physics” (google it) and here is the relationship of the Virtual Interaction configuration to the Matrix characters. http://threeseas.net/vicprint/VIC-basic.html
Of course there is a whole lot more to all this and even a why there was an effort to pull me into a law suite. You see there is the copyright process of the writers guild where a work can be copyrighted where the only way to bring out the proof is through a court order. The purpose of this is to address the problem with innocent plagiarism where someone might read a script or work and then forget about it but some time later, perhaps years, recreate it but having forgotten they once read it.. And in the history of me, I had mentioned I knew about this copyright method to some in the software industry. But I did not fall for the lawsuit pull simple because…. I did not writ the matrix fiction. What I wrote instead is the reality from which the matrix fiction was inspired.
In reality the commanders of the Ship cannot be killed off and the reason agent smith lost when he won is because he had to realize he himself is composed of the action constants of the ships commanders.
There is plenty more expressed in the movies trilogy explainable in terms of reality and computer technology. But know the fiction of the movies was a hollywood effort to dumb down people to this reality about what we all do, all the time, making us all created equal in this regards.
Did I get anything out of the profits of the trilogy? Of course not! That is not the way hollywood works and the computer industry share the same state.
