The Stupidity of the Human Race

So Monday there was this big email and voicemail sent out at work telling us not to release Pirates. Now, me and the other manager were thinking maybe it had something to do with its content, seeing as it is an edited version of a hardcore porn but no. The reason is that they are afraid that people will confuse it with the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie that just came out. Now, seriously, how stupid would you have to be to think that Pirates was really Pirates of the Caribbean. Yes, they made the cover look similar, but the actors on the cover are porn stars. No Johnny Depp, no Orlando Bloom, no Kierra Knightly, just porn stars. Also, we have had this movie in stores for two weeks, corporate had it before that, and the day before it is to be released this just occurs to them? They didn't see the cover when they first got it and say, "hey maybe we should put something on this so that people don't confuse it with Pirates of the Caribbean?" No, they wait until the day before it comes out. Apparently they are having some sticker made to put on it to tell people it is not Pirates of the Caribbean. Sometimes the stupidity of the human race just saddens me.

Wouldn't it be sweet, though, if Keira Knightly was a porn star? Mmmmmm...
