BEIJING (AP) - A court ruled Friday that a Chinese science fiction writer did not have enough evidence to prove that 20th Century Fox stole his ideas when making the 2004 movie "The Day After Tomorrow."
Li Jianmin, 43, had said there were at least 308 scenes in the film that were substantially similar to the concept and plots of two plays he completed in 2001 and 2002, the official Xinhua News Agency reported.
The apocalyptic film, starring Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhaal, depicts a world in which climate change triggers a cascade of events that practically flash-freeze the planet.
