These things are usually settled with a little horse trading, such as the time Austin Powers In Goldmember ran a trailer attachment on its film to solve the deliberate similarity to the 007 film Goldfinger. This will have to be settled soon, as the movie will be released August 16. Insiders at Warner Bros said simply that TWC should have tried to clear the title earlier, and that Warner Bros is protecting its rights because it can. Stay tuned.

for Butler reasons? {nm}   Oleg Max on Jul 08, 11:02

Which is? {nm}   Antibody on Jul 08, 11:07

Apparently he is using the term "Butler" to account for all film title legal disputes. {nm}   doitdoitdoitnow on Jul 08, 11:09

yeap, using url/name that isn't legally theirs. creating more free publicity... {nm}   Oleg Max on Jul 08, 11:11

That makes no sense. You're saying TWC picked "The Butler" for free publicity. {nm}   Antibody on Jul 08, 11:14

Then you're saying WB is in on it too, because they could just let TWC use the title and thus no "free publicity".. {nm}   Antibody on Jul 08, 11:23

maybe not now, but it could have been resolved easily imo. {nm}   Oleg Max on Jul 08, 11:27
