THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 2008NEW YORK TIMES: JUDGE TO GRANT FOX'S WATCHMEN CLAIMAccording to The New York Times, a federal judge in Los Angeles said he intended to grant 20th Century Fox's claim that it owns a copyright interest in the Watchmen movie.
The decision was disclosed in a five-page written order issued on Wednesday by Gary A. Feess, a judge in the United States District Court for Central California.
Fox has been seeking to prevent Warner Bros. from releasing the film, which is scheduled for a March 6 release.
A Warner spokesman, Scott Rowe, declined to comment to The Times on the ruling and the studio's plans.
The judge advised both Fox and Warner to look toward a settlement or an appeal.
