I believe that Paramount is not going to push any case for copyraghts (or any other series which are imitated in the movie) because this is not a threat to them. Just a hobby by bunch of people who will get few thousand bucks for 10 years worth of work. Furthermore, should they push the case, they would face unimaginable campaign on the internet (among many scifi & computer communities) that any result of such act would only make them to look like a greedy, fat company who wants to kill any moviehobby or creativity for sake of "copyrights". The case would be different if for example MGM would lauch a series of such parody movies and distribute them in every theatre over the world.
