Why not just leave the poster the same for all markets? That's just a dumb move. I don't see any negativity leaving that black couple in there.

Universal issued a statement regretting any offense it caused, and the studio has scrapped all plans to use the modified poster in other overseas markets.

Remember kids, the product isn't legit until the marketing goons have crapped all over it.

Saw the movie... cute. That's all I'll say. Black people are fun. Why did they cut them out?

Here's the president and vice president!

actually, the film would have been demographically correct if it included more latino's in the film.

Forgot about that, and I do remember seeing some Orientals in the kitchen as well.
