Canadian journalist sues Knocked Up filmmakers.
This is really great. Rebecca Eckler a Calgary journalist, is suing Universal Studios and writer-director Judd Apatow, over plot similarities to her 2004 memoir with the same title, Knocked Up.
"Both my book and the movie feature one night of passion and the nine months that follow. Fine. Whatever," she wrote."But what got me was the fact that 'Alison' was an up-and-coming television reporter; in my book, I was an up-and-coming newspaper reporter."Here's hoping that this will stall the DVD release of Knocked Up, and force Seth Rogen to move back to Canada, and live the rest of his life in relative obscurity as a comedian doing wonderful comedic work on hit Canadian television shows like This Hour Has 22 Minutes and The Royal Canadian Air Farce.
Canadian actors deserve the best Canada can give them. Seriously.
