What ever happend to Sharkboy
 

suing the people who made Sharkboy and Lava girl?

He wrestled on Impact tonight.

Thanks. You really helped.

I don't know, but he'll probably tank because of the sharks that Sony have.

He probably got laughed out of court for showing up in his gear.

He's been implicated in Steve Irwin's death

You only get half of an :lo smiley. Funny, but with a screen name like that I just cant support you.

I still say he should get it changed to "Oooh Chavo".

The movie came out, despite the injunction he proposed. After that, they just stopped reporting the news. I don't know, but I'm betting he lost.

...Or he lost the license in a "Shark tank from Hell" match.

--EDIT-- This is what Wikipedia alleges.

"On June 8, 2005 Shark Boy filed a lawsuit against Miramax Films. Having trademarked the name "Shark Boy" in 1999, Shark Boy claimed that Miramax's then-latest release "The Adventures of Shark Boy & Lava Girl" infringed upon his trademark, and demanded any "money, profits and advantages wrongfully gained". In November 2005 it emerged that Miramax had attempted to have the case dismissed, in addition to requesting that the court nullify Shark Boy's trademark on the basis that "Plaintiff is a male whose services are rendered only when he is wearing a costume depicting 'shark-like' attributes." Shark Boy was scheduled to attend a court hearing on January 5, 2006."

Sorry it ain't more.

lol 'shark-like' attributes

He's hung like a Mako.

I wish I had Shark like attributes

It would help if Wikipedia was more accurate because I know for a fact Shark Boy trademarked his name in 1997 not 1999.

He's jobbing on Impact where he belongs. Who cares about some movie lawsuit?

Can't a guy be curious? Wtf?

You can be but be prepared to be ridiculed for it. ;)

Sorry, it's more of a Shark Boy insult than a knock on you.

Veeeeeery good. Hence "alleges."

So Wikipedia's right from the legal stance in this case. He filed it, according to their records, in 1999.

Well done Kane Knight

I'm sorry, I really was sure it was 1997. I've seen it say 1997 in a lot of places.

Stop being a stupid douche.

I didnt know sharkboy went so big, the first (and last) I heard of him was in some wrestling magazine that had an up and comers section, you know, like "You may want to watch out for: ____" I saw a pic of sharkboy and thought "Ridiculous"

What was he in?

He's claimed the first use of it was in 1997, but that doesn't mean it was trademarked then.

Yeah, that's probably what I was thinking of.

He is in TNA

Woah, thats a pretty huge ladder he climbed then.
