If StuffWeLike.com were a sitcom, it would be The Big Bang Theory, the endearing comedy about hopelessly nerdy physicists who pretty much like everything that we like.
Johnny Galecki’s Leonard is the emotional center of the show. When Penny (Kaley Cuoco), an attractive young woman, moves into the apartment across the hall, Leonard is instantly smitten. His pursuit of the girl of his dreams forms the spine of the first season.

Warner Bros. is taking legal action against Bollywood. This time it isn’t just because they don’t like non-Hollywood movies but instead this time they do have a good reason. A new Bollywood movie is taking an extremely similar name to a giant cash cow of Warner’s. The movie “Hari Puttar - A Comedy of Terrors” is said by Warner Bros to be infringing on the Harry Potter copyright.
As you read this Warner Bros would have already presented their case to the Bombay High Court today. Considering just how long court cases take to process they must have had advanced warning about this months ago. The films story is said to be about a 10-year-old Indian boy who moves to the UK.
So not about a magical wizard boy then but the name is proving to be a serious concern. We will soon know if the makers will be forced to change the name as the movie is scheduled for a cinema release in some regions on September 12th.

If you haven’t heard the news already it’s the next Harry Potter movie is to have it’s release delayed so instead of coming out at the end of this year it will be out in the summer of ‘09. While fans are screaming all over the net about the injustice there is another way to look at it on behalf of everyone else.
The world is nearing Potter fatigue and I think Warner Bros is starting to sense it. Before the fans start shouting that the movies are already a few years behind the book’s releases just a few key points to remember. There have been Harry Potter movies coming out for nearly a full decade with the big story a few years back about which would win the box-office wars between Potter and Lord of the Rings.
While Potter has kept on going, and going, Lord has been on hiatus for several years. Long enough for the dust to settle, plans for more movies come along and pre-production to begin. Since there has not been a pause in the endless Potter production line hype between each movie and books release maybe a delay would be a good thing for all concerned.
