Besides the monetary compensation, they want all prints of the movie burned, and for Columbia to stop using the famous logo. Well, obviously, Fat Chance. Looks like they're looking for an out-of-court settlement. I hope Columbia doesn't, and lets Harvey bankrupt themselves with this ridiculous gesture (gee, I'm just filled with the Christmas Spirit...)" "Aim for her flat-top!"
