Theater plaatst Sausage Party trailer voor Finding Dory

Zoals je waarschijnlijk wel weet is dat Seth Rogen's nieuwste film Sausage Party alles behalve kind vriendelijk is. Daar om is het wat extra lullig voor de kids die in de zaal voor Finding Dory zaten, de trailer van de dubbelzinnige animatie film te zien krijgen. Het theater kwam al snel achter deze fout en heeft deze niet meer herhaalt. Maar shit raakte de media en in de US kan dat betekenen dat er rechtzaken gaan komen en daad de bioscoop snel aan damage control. Dit krijgt vast en zeker nog wel een vervolg.


Moviegoers at the Brenden Concord 14 received a surprise earlier this month with the preview of "Sausage Party," an R-rated animated film centered around the adventures of some cartoon characters who are food items in a grocery store who soon realize their fate is to be eaten.

The "Sausage Party" preview carried dark themes, and Brenden Theatre officials acknowledged it was inappropriate for younger audiences of "Finding Dory," which is rated PG.

The mistake occurred at a showing earlier this month at the Concord theater on Willow Pass Road, though movie officials did not give an exact date.

Walter Eichinger, Brenden's vice president of operations said it was a mistake that was caught quickly.

"Playing that trailer was a one-time honest mistake by a theater manager moving screens around in effort to accommodate several large last-minute groups wanting to see 'Dory,'" Eichinger said in a written statement. "The wrong movie was started by mistake."

In the statement, Eichinger insisted the same thing won't happen again.
