LGF & GOEGP Director APROY Apologize For Film's Lack Of Diversity. Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 12:51

Do people care enough about this film to be offended? {nm} tatoufan Nov 27, 15:25

It'll likely get punished for both whitewashing & quality issues. Slick move to bury release during Thanksgiving. {nm} Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 15:42

Free publicity imo {nm} RamsFan2004 Nov 27, 17:49

Can't imagine how this corp damage control (almost up there with disowning a pic) 3-months from release will boost prospects though. {nm} Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 18:38

This is just SJW blog fodder. {nm} RamsFan2004 Nov 27, 18:41

No, I simply hope LGF avoids another TLWH, by limiting P&A expenditure & moderately releasing GOEGP, therefore containing losses. Capiche? Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 18:48

I understand everything except 'capiche' {nm} RamsFan2004 Nov 27, 18:52

Not saying diversity isn't an important ideal, just that I can't see people staying mad at this for three months... RamsFan2004 Nov 27, 18:49

You misunderstand my intention, as above. Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 18:53

Sorry, I was in the middle of writing and posted it before I saw your reply... RamsFan2004 Nov 27, 19:03

All good RF. LGF statements should help contain any potential backlash going forward, for sure. {nm} Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 19:11

Considering the timing of the apology, imo it looks like they are trying to get the inevitable outrage out of the way early medusa Nov 27, 18:55

Absolutely, that's the play. {nm} Lionsgate Studio Fund Nov 27, 18:59
