Honda Gets Sued for Using Godzilla in an Advertisement

This is the second weird lawsuit against car companies that I've seen this month. Apparently, Honda is getting sued for a 1 sec image of Godzilla in an ad that they ran.

Really? Marshall might as well sue too. I mean Honda use their amp and I don't hear them whining like a 5 year old girl that lost her favorite doll.

Wow. And I'd be willing to guess that they'll win. I mean, who hasn't used a fire-breathing dragon in their ads?

I agree. I guess the makers of Godzilla hasn't made enough money over the years. I really can't tell it's Godzilla myself. Well, Honda does have money to burn though. Honda has made a lot of money making dependable cars. If Japan is getting in on Honda's success, they better hope the company doesn't go anywhere

Here's an NPR audio link about the story. It's business as usual. I wonder who'll give in first?
