Bay Clones Crappy Clonus Plot

The Sal and I went to watch Micheal Bay's latest "The Island" and found it to be an entertaining action chase flick. We also found Scarlett Johanssen's curves to be entertaining, but hey, we're guys. What did you expect? A couple of fellows that didn't find the Bay action flick to be entertaining at all were the producers and director of "Parts:The Clonus Horror", a film released in the late 70's that has a very similar plot. I'm guessing that they didn't like it because it brought back traumatic memories of the shoot of Clonus. Man, that movie was a turd, but they might have a case.

The plot of Clonus goes a little something like this. A colony of clones is raised to believe that every once in a while one of them is chosen to go to a promised land called America when in reality, they're just being used for spare parts. The plot for The Island is as follows: A colony of clones is led to believe that via a lottery they are sent to a promised land known as The Island when in reality they are just being used for spare parts.

Pretty damning evidence. What I don't understand is, why are they suing anyway? Not like "The Island" made any money in the theaters. It tanked hard. And if you're not an avid watcher of "Mystery Science Theater 3000", chances are you've never even heard of "Parts:The Clonus Horror". But hey, if Micheal Bay rips off my movie idea that is yet unfilmed about ninja kittens that battle the evil minions of the Dark Lord Woof and his canine axis of evil (notice the Iraq War reference), then I'm suing too. That fucker Bay's pockets are lined with gold, and I want me a piece of that action.
