Is she this desperate for some money? Yoko Ono (and co.) is suing the creators of the controversial ‘Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed’ for using the song ‘Imagine’ in their documentary. While the movie is a critical flop, it still managed to get a bunch of people into the cinema. Which means they made money and, well, Yoko Ono could probably smell it and wanted some.

Of course, you have to draw the line somewhere and if they don’t sue, people might actually think they can freely use John Lennon’s music. And Yoko is probably not in for such a party.

The film makers, in their defense, say they used the song as a political comment and “are disappointed therefore that Yoko Ono and others have decided to challenge our free speech.” Yeah, they probably don’t mind if we illegally download their movie as free speech either.

The Motion Picture Association of America is giving pullmylink.com some extra traffic by suing them. In a new search to stop illegal downloads the MPAA is now suing sites linking to pirated content, not just hosting it.

Since the last movie pullmylink.com posted is Stop Loss on April 9, the site has been pretty quiet. So their tactics must be working. O wait, I just linked to a site linking to illegal content. Can I get sued now too?

While Bollywood might be losing $4 billion a year, the MPAA notes in 2005 the US film industry lost a small $18.2 billion. Yes, that’s a lot of jobs.
