A Los Angeles Film School student is suing writers of Men in Black III and others for $2 billion. He claims the writers stole elements from his school assignments and incorporated them into various films.

Constantino Basile says his script ideas were so good … they were used in THREE big Hollywood movies and spoofed by Steven Spielberg for the classic SNL short “Laser Cats 7″ … according to the lawsuit obtained by TMZ.
Basile claims he submitted his stories “The World of Jupiter” and “Crisis on Jupiter” as assignments for a class at Los Angeles Film School back in 2011.

In the docs, Basile says a teacher at the school sold his work to Hollywood film writers … who incorporated various elements of the stories into their movies, including “MIB 3,” “Prometheus,” and “Elysium.”

Good luck, kid.
