Laughs!

It doesn’t look like Premise has a hope in heck of defending themselves against this one. They’re is no way they are going to have a ton of paper-work, DVDs, science papers, scientists, graphic arts folks, production notes, supercomputer receipts, etc. showing that they independently modeled and produced this. The question is always going to come down to “Then how did you know to model it this way if you didn’t model it?” Even if they somehow could prove they modelled it… one would have to ask why their segment has the same camera angles, structures, proteins, atomic motion, etc.? Why they left out the same proteins and included others. Even then, they have to answer why both segments include the same errors.

Dembski’s statements are opinion – since he doesn’t have any direct knowledge of Premise. It would only be damming if discovery showed that he did have direct knowledge or contact with them on this topic. At which point, his own copyright issues on the same film would come in.

I don’t see how Premise can release. It would take less than a couple of months for a judge to shut down the film while the copyright issue is sorted out, I doubt many theatres would touch this in the meantime, and fines are for every showing.

Like Judge John Roberts?
