No way are these two fans winning this frivolous lawsuit for Yesterday!m

How much can I get from Disney for showing this in the trailer and not in the movie? It’s the only reason I even went to see it!

grasping the business, creative and legal perspectives of this simultaneously is like listening to a conversation between Gollum, Sméagol and Dobby🤪🤨🙄😎

It's a shame that people can't be fined for bringing frivolous lawsuits like this to an overburdened legal system.

I’m suing Paul Thomas Anderson and MGM/United for an unspecified amount because 90 seconds of the 2-minute Licorice Pizza trailer wasn’t in the actual film.

This lawsuit is ridiculous.

I hope these folks never catch wind of the production histories for recent Terrence Malick joints

Lawsuit Claims Universal Duped Ana de Armas Fans Into Watching ‘Yesterday’Universal was sued on Friday in a class action accusing the studio of tricking fans by featuring Ana de Armas in trailers for 'Yesterday' when she's not in the movie. 😂😂😂 Well Imma sue some of the steaming services that use POC like they have substantial roles only to find out they were extra 3 in the movie.
