Parody laws? :yeshrug:

If HBO could use NFL logos and names for Ballers, then I'm sure Will can for his movie
:patrice: this is not a good look then. That trailer is not pro NFL. Will must be trying to go straight to Netflix. Dude already pissed cacs/ Christians with nepotism and supposedly "Scientology" propaganda in After Earth. Now this:lolbron:

Foreign accent - check

Will Smith is not going to Netflix breh :dahell:

He already rebounded with Focus, it made money even though the movie was garbage

The NFL has known this was coming for a long time breh. This isn't news to them. And the fact that Peter King debuted the trailer in his MMQB blog, means they're either not worried about it or actually behind it because King doesn't do anything like that without Goodell saying it's OK

That movie flopped commercially & critically breh

It wasn't a flop finically. It wasn't a huge hit but it wasn't a flop. It made its money, it did its thing mostly because of the overseas market. It only made about 58 mil in the US but around the world it made $104 million. Same situation with Terminator Genisys right now: Didn't do well here but cleaned up overseas

I will always root for Will, but if this and that suicide squad flop. It may be a wrap. It seems like Hollywood is trying to move him along

Well damn, that was far more going for the NFL's jugular than I thought it would be.
And Will's accent was nearly as bad as I was expecting either.
Be curious to see the NFL response.
