What did the poor question mark do to you to deserve such shoddy treatment?

Dissent. Excellent with swiss, dijon and roasted turkey. Counters the spiciness of the dijon perfectly.

My question is, how the fuck did this get through Legal in the first place, Str8?

TV lawyers are dumb.
Better question is how did Warner Bros.' lawyers miss the fact that the TV show Dukes of Hazzard was based on a 1974 movie called Moonrunners, and apparently the TV show producers never got theatrical motion picture rights?
So Warner Bros. is infringing on Moonrunners' copyright, and the producer of Moonrunners this week got a preliminary injunction against Stiffler, Johnny Knoxville, Jessica Simpson et al. Warners just paid this producer $17.5 million to settle the suit and avoid having all their prints confiscated by federal marshals.
Bwahahahhahaha. That's going to change some P&Ls up there. |

You have a point. The problem is that this particular sandwich is too bland. Much like today's board, Abba's candy panties notwithstanding (whatever they didn't withstand). |

Why the PIs against the actors? Did they have % of receipts deals?
ETA: is not realizing that TV rights had been secured but movie rights hadn't been (which I guess must be standard procedure for tv/movie lawyers, so yes, it's stupid), really worse than not realizing that blatantly-prohibited bases fordiscriminating, er, choosing among potential neighbors might pose a legal problem?

I was making a statement more than seeking an answer. I could have conveyed a similar thought by writing: "There was no reason to post this." |

Glad to see the government is working on protecting me against domestic terrorism too.
How could this movie not completely suck ass?

Yesterday I caught a snippet of Mariska Hargitay on SVU saying something like, "...you dislocated her arm and hit her over the head with a lead pipe -- that's assault." |

Excuse me. Have you actually been reading this board lately, Miss ten-pound panties?

My candy panties rocked. I am ordering more pairs. They look really hot on if I do say so myself. And they are fun to "remove." 40 calories! No grams of fat! |

Nah. It might have prevented the marshals from seizing some fake LV purses and Rolecks watches, though.
Marshal Dillon: "Miss Kitty, I'm afraid we're going to have to remove that knock-off Dior dress you're wearing . . ." |
