I've followed this case quite a bit. There has been many times when Sofia has contradicted herself. I think I posted before in this topic but....


I would bet this is all just some internet bullshit and THERE NEVER WAS A CASE. That's the real reason you never hear about it in the media, not courtesy of some big conspieracy, but BECAUSE IT NEVER HAPPENED.

"You don't go from [doing] a mediocre movie to a work of genius like 'The Matrix."

That's what the Wachowskis did. The Matrix is basically a mix of things that the Wachowskis are interested in, and they had to make a movie before the Matrix to prove themselves as directors. But I guess they are lying, I mean, they are white after all, and of course I believe them and not her because I'm white too.

This is an excerpt from "The Third Eye"

unn13.com...

[Italics, mine]


Chapter V
Birth of I-Khan

At his birth, the sky turned black and the sun did not shine. [redundant]. Heaven and Earth shook, [how does Heaven shake?, and talk about hackneyed writing] and there were a multitude of earthquakes; [redundant] many stars fell from the sky,[this is science fiction?], and many phenomena occurred at his coming, [liiike..? talk about nondescript] because he was the only one worthy to receive the knowledge and power of the Eye. [Talk about corny.]

His name was I-Khan and he was the leader of the Galactic Rebellion. [Shouldn't Lucas sue her for ripping off Star Wars?] He was thirty years of age when the Revolution took place on Earth. He had a warm face, [and a cold nose, wet like a dog (sorry)] with strong fixed eyes; [not like those beady ones you stick on that are plastic that go round and round]; he stood 6'3" and weighed 185 pounds [and he likes to laugh, likes movies and musics, no druggies or smokers]. At all times, he was dressed in black, because black was the dominant color code of the Rothfellers Organization [black is a tone not a color; the author is unedumacated]. He was the seed that the prophecy promised...the one that the multitude had so long waited for [standard Messiah plot structure -- this is nothing original -- maybe the guys who wrote the Bible have a lawsuit]. He had finally come to fulfill his duty and to destroy Morning Star.

Morning Star waited many, many years for the coming of I-Khan [yaaawn], and prepared everything well in advance for his arrival. He devised many systems to find I-Khan. One system was for the last president (San Emen) to wipe out taxes [what the F*ck? she's parenthesizing narrative and then talking about tax systems], social security [part of that new Sci-Fi New Deal], welfare, aid programs, etc. [etc.?] -- anything and everything that for- ced [her hyphenation] the people to take the mark. Then, he brought the Draft system into full force, so that I-Khan would be killed in the nuclear war, once he came of age. [Is this perhaps some of the dumbest writing you've ever read?]. And...he did much more to

End of page 19...Now on to page 17...

child, "We are descendants of a great 'One'...always remember that! [Why.] You have nothing to be ashamed of because we are poor."[Oookay.]

Soon after the occurrence with the gypsy woman, I-Ceus met a strange man with clear, transparent eyes [redundant, and also repeats itself, and repetitive, too], whom she became deeply attracted to. He spoke very profoundly and had a hypnotic effect on I-Ceus. [These guys just appear from nowhere with zombie eyes]. Indeed, she was extremely impressed with him [okay, we get it], but when she asked his name, he assured her that this was not important [translation: he's a deadbeat dad] -- what was important was that they had met and they were knew that they were meant for each other [corny, bad romance novel writing]. That night, for the first time in I-Ceus' life she slept with a man [who has jello eyes, won't give his name, what a slut], this man with the intense eyes and hypnotic effect on her [and he had a hypnotic effect, too]. They made love throughout the night, and for the first time I-Ceus was very happy [vomitus]. However, [however? is this a legal document?] her happiness was short-lived [well, orgasm doesn't persist, you know], because the next morning the man with no name was gone [Duh, slut]... and it seemed as though he never really existed at all [all he left behind were some old used up condoms with ribs in them which were hypnotic and transparent]. Soon thereafter she began to forget him [does this chick have a job, or what?], until one day (several months later) [as opposed to the very next day, or just next Saturday night] she realized she was pregnant [I don't remember Neo being pregnant, or Neo's mother being an airhead slut]. During the last few days of her journey to Dome [Houston Astrodome] she was soon to give birth, and the pain and suffering of childbirth made her cry out [as opposed to doing a hip hop dance number]. Morning Star, for some unknown reason [great plot development tool: some unknown reason], heard her cries, and stood (invisible) in front of her, waiting to take her child and destroy it. But this was not to be [corny prophetic hogwash], because an unseen power [Microsoft] was also there--to protect the child. I-Ceus then gave birth [fiiiiinally] to a son, who would one day bring peace to Earth [like Jesus Christ?].

When Morning Star realized his opportunity to destroy the child had escaped him [like, just what the hell happened which kept him from doing anything?], he begun to pursue the woman [like a stalker?]. However, the woman (I-Ceus) [oh yeah, that slut] fled to the desert [the DESERT?] where she was given help; [who the hell gave her help?] thereafter [and forthwith], she was taken care of for three and one-half years, [and five days, and nine hours, and ten minutes and 34 seconds]

End of page 17


------

Okay, now I know "The Matrix" is derivative of many movies and literary works, some of them, like Terry Gilliam's "Brazil", and Orwell's "1984", Michael Radford's screen adaptation "1984", William Gibson's novels, are masterpieces. But judging from the drek Sophia Stewart puts out here, if the pages posted are actually from her "novel", it's clear she doesn't have much skill with writing, or any originality. What she does have is a flair for being a psychotic narcissist. Any amateur high school writing class writer can whip up the trash she wrote in the above excerpt. The material is so general and uses so many corny idiomatic pieces that her story essentially has no unique features. I guess you can sue someone for copying your work if your work is so general it is like any other Messiah story. But the outcome is that you will LOSE. That's what Stewart did -- she lost, because her writing sucks and she never had a case, which is why she doesn't show in court. What she did do however is feed her need for attention for years by pleading the case of the underdog (as opposed to taking her usual role of the deranged hack writer) and thereby become a minor celebrity based on more hack journalism by some dumb communications major, and now Stewart is trying to make a little money on the side. $100 dollars for "The Third Eye" -- fiction work so banal that you wouldn't read it if someone paid you. Stuff you can get in a free internet fanzine?

Go suck an egg, Stewart. Your writing skills suck. Fade into your oblivion of mediocrity. Neo commands you.

& James Cameron is a director, not a writer. If she can't tell the difference, I wouldn't admit it in public if I were her.


Of course, but as you know the Director is the ultimate authority on the set and is responsible for assigning re-writes. Cameron admitted to taking all sorts of plot points, scripting, etc. from "A Night to Remember". I don't know if you've ever seen that film but it will shock you how similar the films are with regard to the scripts and character creation.

rachelm, while I agree that the writing is not stellar, to say the least, there must be something to this considering that initially the judge gave a "green light" on moving this case forward. If it was totally out of the realm of possibilities, this case wouldn't have gone forward at all.

Plus, from all accounts, the F.B.I. is still investigating. That being the case, the feds don't waste time on something unless they smell a rat. And in this case, we may have two big rats.

As for the writing you posted, obviously Stewart ripped off the Bible because that's where her material originated.

There are many works that are Biblically inspired. Are those works also "ripping off the Bible?" Are they communicating the message in a more accessible manner? Are they purely seeking to profit from the religious connotations?

Thanks for your reply.

I just want to discuss the issue of how do we know for certain that the F.B.I. is involved?

The reason I bring this up is because I can't find any valid objective sources. The only source I can find are those attributed to an interview with the author; and I find the author unreliable.

Given that there was an investigation, why would the results be released before the investigation was over, and why would any released information not be in the public domain?

I can only conclude that FBI support of Stewart's claim is a false rumor. It might be true they are investigating some sort of copyright infringement, but it may not be infringement upon Stewart.

In much the same way that the Salt Lake city paper misrepresented the facts about Stewart winning the case, it may be just as erroneous that there is any Federal investigation at all. If you read some of the other claims the author makes, it seems to me she is a great big deluded LIAR.

Thus far, the only conclusive information is the author couldn't put up, so she shut up. She "failed to show up for a preliminary hearing of her case. In a 53-page ruling, Judge Margaret Morrow of the Central District Court of California dismissed the suit, saying Stewart and her attorneys had not entered any evidence to bolster its key claims or demonstrated any striking similarity between her work and the accused directors' films."

Stewart had no evidence other than her claim and her lousy story. Obviously the case needed more.

Until something comes up to change these facts, I can only conclude for sure that Sophie Stewart is a fraud or delusional.

rachelm, I have been trying to get independent confirmation of the F.B.I. investigation myself on the internet but have had no success. I guess I could call the feds myself and see if there's anything they can tell me. If I remember, I'll do it myself tomorrow.

I didn't read any results, only that the feds were investigating.

It's very easy to explain the FBI investigation...it isn't happening. There's just no evidence, no source, no indication that any such thing has happened. The only evidence that the FBI did anything related to this case is a one page document that isn't authenticated that also does not say anything.

Simply put, there is absolutely no evidence...anywhere...that proves Sophia Stewarts case. None. Zero. Links to false stories on sites funded by Stewart just is not evidence. Rumored stories with no backing or evidence does not prove a case.

The better quesiton is...why do you believe her? What convinces you? It's not her writing...it barely resembles these films. It's not the preponderance of evidence...there isn't any.

So instead of asking why would the FBI be investigating, ask yourself the real quesiton...why in God's name would you even think the FBI is invovled? Because the ghettotymes says so?

This woman is a joke. People do not need to refute her case because she quite simply does not have one. There's no proof of anything, and when she's claiming divine intervention in her fabulous writing, not to mention massive corporate conspiracies, one has to question the sanity of anyone who would latch on to her and actually believe her. The burden of proof is on her, and she hasn't managed to prove anything...not in a court of law, and not even on the web.

I mean listen to what you're saying...your best evidence is that the judge allowed the case to move forward. That's all you have. Considering how many cases exactly like this move forward, and lose, why would you pick Stewart to believe? Shouldn't she give you...like...something besides crazy talk before one believes her?

When you allow yourself to learn something other than your own history you will find out much of all this so called knowledge came from Africa and India. The only thing Caucasians are really noted for is creating weapons of mass destruction and actually using it. Thats what they call progress.

What makes you say that is evidence of pure kooky-talk. What does that have anything to do with what we are discussing? ANd how does Krishna have anything to do with Jesus?

Wrong again. While the atom bomb was designed in the U.S., it was designed by a group of Semites working for the U.S. govt.

If you look back at the most lethal weapons in the history of mankind, you will find that it was created by non-Whites. Consider one of the most powerful WMD of its' day, "Greek Fire". It was created by a middle easterner. The damage that this weapon did was so horrondous that it created fear for generations thereafter.

So when you go shooting your mouth off about WMD's you should consider what racial groups were responsible for these horrible weapons.

This is not over, the suit is still alive. The Matrix/Media is a evil program of deception. Sophia is going to win. The truth is the story is alogory for this pathalogical system.

The Matrix/ Media was wrong about Michael Jackson who won his trial and still has a catalog worth 2 billion dollars. SONY thought they could rip him off.

Like Smith they lost and will lose again.

Did either of you pay attention to the subtext of Sec-Ren?


I agree with you but I was not going to let this guy shoot off his mouth and blame White people for all WMD's ever created. I'm disappointed you didn't realize what I was trying to do.

As for Sec-Ren, what do you mean?

Frankly, I doubt she will win because of the huge powers that stand against her. They can afford to pay off anyone in a position to help her.

NO ONE IS GOING TO HELP HER. PERIOD. NO ONE IS GOING TO PUT THEIR CAREER ON THE LINE FOR HER.

Even if someone does come forward and attempts to help her, the powers that be will either have this person killed or they will kill her. She should have worked out a small deal when they first offered it to her instead of going for the big Dollars and demanding recognition.

Now, she's going to get nothing but an "accidental" death.

Hey, my first post!

The Matrix is my all time favorite movie.

After seeing The Matrix for the first time I immediately identified the rather obvious cut and paste nature of the movie.

Many of the films images, concepts, themes, action sequences and visual effects are almost verbatim from the source from which they were cut.

Was Sophia Stewart's work just another one of the sources that used to create The Matrix?

Having never read The Third Eye I can’t say.
Judging from The excerpts I read from The Third Eye on Sophia Stewart's website…. I would have to say that the similarities between The Matrix and the Third Eye are not immediately obvious, and I wouldn’t bet the farm on her work being the the only soul source martial from which the Matrix was born.

BUT...there are a few things about me about this whole Mother of The Matrix thing that make me think that it is possible that her work could have been as significant as the other source materials used in the creation of the Matrix.

Why are the Wachowski brothers so reclusive?

I mean, they created the “Star Wars” of this generation! Something to be proud of and very vocal about especially in its defense when someone is accusing you of not being its creators.
Cleverly cutting/ pasting and coming up with something seemingly original is one thing, but using someone else’s trade marked logos and images the way Sophia Stewart blatantly dose with martial from the Matrix makes me wonder…

why aren’t the Wachowski brothers suing her?

It seems to me that if Sophia Stewart was a complete Looney or an opportunist trying to make money by knowingly falsely accusing the Wachowski brothers of theft .
She would have been sued and her website AT LEAST would have been shut down by now.
But yet there it remains along with all of the other digital bread crumbs that keep leading back to the Wachowski brothers or Sophia Stewart depending on which direction you follow the crumbs.
From what I’ve seen on the internet there seems to be a whole lot more to this and don’t think that such a buzz would continue if everything about her story including talk of FBI involvement and the existence of a real court case was completely false.

The Matrix was a brilliant cut and paste, and as such I would think that other parties besides Sophia Stewart would have just as much ground to accuse the Wachowski brothers of theft.

I`m willing to entertain the possibility that Sophia Stewart’s book could have been just another one of many other sources used in the creation of The Matrix.

How 'bout this?

Neither of the parties you mentioned can claim the so-called story as "theirs". It goes back to why films like this are made.

It's like that question someone just posted over at a newer matrix fansite about whether the matrix borrowed from Islam. Well, if so, who could sue? See the problem?
