STUDENT SUES THE WRITERS OF MEN IN BLACK

The writers of “Men in Black 3″ used a homework
assignment stolen from a film school student to
finish their blockbuster screenplay … so says the
student, who’s now suing for TWO BILLION
DOLLARS!!!
In fact, Constantino Basile says his script ideas
were so good … they were used in THREE big
Hollywood movies and spoofed by Steven
Spielberg for the classic SNL short “Laser Cats 7″
… according to the lawsuit obtained by TMZ.
Basile claims he submitted his stories “The World
of Jupiter” and “Crisis on Jupiter” as assignments
for a class at Los Angeles Film School back in
2011.
In the docs, Basile says a teacher at the school
sold his work to Hollywood film writers … who
incorporated various elements of the stories into
their movies, including “MIB 3,” “Prometheus,” and
“Elysium.”
The bad news for Basile — those films weren’t
exactly hailed by critics … but “Laser Cats 7″ was
pretty damn funny.
Basile filed the lawsuit without an attorney. He
wants $2 billion in damages.
