The copyright battle overRoad Houseand this years remake starringJake GyllenhaalandConor McGregorhas turned into a full-on bare-knuckle legal brawl.
It is one of a number of reasons why Amazon and gang are fighting Hill now.
Copyright Act, the Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLC-represented defendants/plaintiffs said in their version of events.

Hill cannot rewrite this history now, nearly four decades after the fact.
His attempt to terminate that grant is invalid and his copyright infringement claim is doomed to fail.
In short, Amazon, MGM and UA say Hill knowingly lied to the government.

Thats BS, responds copyright brawler Toberoff.
Plaintiff informed the Copyright Office that this matter is in dispute and would be the subject of litigation.
To that, the counterclaimants want a court judgement that Hill has no copyright hold on the originalRoad Housescript.
They also want the Copyright Office to shred his January 24, 2024 registration of the 1986 screenplay.
Hold tight, one way or another, someones going to get hurt.
