How Much is that Roadside Assistance?

As previously reported, the "Dukes of Hazard" movie had been pulled over by legal issues concerning a little copyright issue with the 1975 flick "Moonrunners" that the television show drew it's inspiration from. Well, looks like the movie was able to get a little roadside assistance with that legal matter, and paid out a fat five million dollars to the producer of "Moonrunners" to keep it's August 5th opening date solid. Fans of short shorts and frivolous lawsuits can rejoice now. Justice has been served. Just make sure you take plenty of moist towelettes when you catch this opening weekend, and try to avoid any Pee Wee Herman-esque legal matters.
