I Think George Lucas Gonna Sue Somebody.

Nerd God, George Lucas is suing a London engineer who helped design the original Stormtrooper helmets for the first Star Wars movie. Andrew Ainsworth, who made the helmets for the film, has been selling replicas made from the original molds through his company, Shepperton Design Studios, which is a big no no according to Lucasfilm. Lucas and company are seeking buttloads of cash claiming Ainsworth is violating copyrights. It's such a tough life being a billionaire nerd. Reading this reminded me of this little ditty I saw last year.
