Debunked Sophia Stewart vs. The Matrix story still circulates web

The hottest color of Hollywood is green. People with blockbuster money ideas do not get tossed aside. Producers would want to tap Stewart to see if lightning strikes thrice even if they had to record sessions with her so they could prove later they didn’t steal anything.

Nevertheless, understanding that sometimes a person may have a once-in-a-lifetime story that slips away from her or him, here is a link to Sophia Stewart’s legal documentation. She is being promoted as “The Mother of the Matrix.”

Winning a copyright infringement case against a studio is nearly impossible. While humorist Art Buchwald sued Paramount over Eddie Murphy’s Coming to America and won, it’s rare to triumph over Hollywood studios because of the high number of people who claim studios stole their ideas but have no real proof.  After awhile, cries that “Hollywood stole my idea” start to sound like shouts of “I’m innocent” behind prison bars. A few people have a righteous cause. Most, however, are lying to themselves.

Furthermore, as serious, working writers know, if you don’t have proof of theft, your new work will reflect that you possess the skill and talent to have produced the work you say was stolen. However, with the history of African-Americans in the book publishing industry, in Hollywood, in America being what it is, a history of under-appreciation and worse, it’s understandable why so many African-Americans believe without question that Stewart got the shaft.
