"born into the body of an enormous creature that looked like a cross between a manta ray and a dolphin"

It came out in 03 by the way and was penned by Timothy Zahn one of the most respected sci-fi authors of the current age.

Hello, I'm a Timothy Zahn fan....basically, run.

My first thought.







However, my second thought was, he tried to sue Cameron over Avatar, so screw him.

Firstly stop getting my pop culture references!

Secondly I don't know if it was Zahn sueing, I was just pointing out the absurdity of how similar that book is. I read it awhile ago just because I was interested, and its actually pretty good. Its similar to Avatar, but different in some significant ways. Sadly I felt it handled its characters much better, and well actually made me sort of care about the protagonist, not something I can say about Jake.

Never heard of any of his books and only vaguely of him. If you're a fan... perhaps you're overstating it

Attempts to hold back the legions of Star Wars fans...takes a lightsaber to the chest.

Another day, another lawsuit, this time for 2.5B (!!)

Click here

This is getting old fast.

Edit: now it's 3 lawsuits in the last 10 days alone. Here's an article with a chart comparing the lawsuits. Also, the story of a certain "Kelly Van" who now wishes she hadn't sued...

Sheesh!

In light of all the "Pochontas dances with wolves IN SPACE" jokes, I'm vaguely amused.

Also,

In his lawsuit, Moore points out various similarities, including [...] appearance of mist in scene...
I assume someone misheard mis-en-scéne.
