Digimon? It's similar, but not quite the same as Pokemon...
And DJ, so you're saying that you cannot copywright the name of a book, or the ideas in it? Funny, I thought copywright law was there for exactly that reason! If you'd read Farenheight 451, you'd understand better how much Moore is trying to call up memories of what that book's message is in his audience... to set the mood for the movie, I guess. It's not just the very similar name, as I said. It's calling on the contents of the book as well, and the ideas in the book are certainly protected by copywright.
