Yes, you read the title right, Warner Brothers has in thier infinite wisdom decided to piss off about half the world.

In other movie news, stuff like this makes me want to barf. and I LIKE Vin Diesel...

all I have to say is WTF???? perhaps it has something to do with the writing..advertising..public interestnot the actresses-as far as vin diesel as terminator.. spare me..

It would be my guess, that they put his opinion out there, as an advertising gimmick. As with many stars, ANY recognition is better than no recognition.

I mean it has been how long since we heard anything good that Brittney Spears, or Lindsey Lohan did...it is all bad, but they are still in the headlines, and that is the goal.

Gets Warner Bro's name in the news....then they can deny it, and keep the name in the news....playing it for all it's worth!

Just a guess.

Maybe this decision was based on the fact that they feel that many of the female stars - Julia Roberts, Gwyneth Paltrow, Michelle Pfeiffer, etc - are "ageing out" and all the young ones are a bunch of irresponsible drunks and druggies. Or maybe they mostly make action and horror movies, not female star friendly genres.

Nah. Their recent movies with female leads had disappointing box-office returns.

Well, there is a link on the page to a 2nd article where someone from Time Warner called and denied it was every said. The writer of the article makes notes about the person who first made the claim as being someone who likes to 'embellish' (to put it lightly). It may have been something the guy actually said, but it was probably entirely sarcastic, you know?
