'Twilight' Bites Back at Unauthorized Magazine

Posted Nov 9th 2009 6:30AM by TMZ Staff

TwilightThere are pictures of the "Twilight" kids all over the Internet -- but the people behind the movies are pissed at a magazine company for allegedly grabbing a few and putting them on newsstands.

Summit Entertainment -- the producers of the movies and distributor of various types of merchandise -- is suing Beckett Media over a Twilight-themed magazine Beckett made. According to a lawsuit filed in federal court on Friday, Summit says Beckett is using publicity photos from the movie in their "Twilight Fanzine" without permission.

Summit says they sent Beckett a cease and desist letter -- and since then Beckett, released a second unauthorized magazine.

They are suing for unspecified damages.

3. Here's a pitch for Hollywood, and free!
Sexy young, twenty-something, urban, nouveau-rich vampires versus post-2012 zombies...
live = good, dead = bad, undead = cool.

You've got to think ahead today -- otherwise, you're sure to get caught by surprise in the near future. It's one of those days when you can whittle down the possibilities before things get out of hand.
