Louis Vuitton Sues Warner Bros! The first fashion scandal of 2012 came from Louis Vuitton. The luxury fashion brand is suing Warner Bros, the film industry, for using a counterfeit Louis Vuitton handbag in a scene of The Hangover Part II, a comedy movie. Normally, this might be kind of reasonable. But in the movie, the property was used as part of a joke. The scene takes part at the airport, the character, Alan carries a suitcase bearing the logo “LVM,” it is obvious that this item is fake as genuine Louis Vuitton bags are marked “LV”. “Careful,” Alan tells his friend, “that is a Louis Vuitton.” mispronouncing the name as “Lewis.” That’s the joke, Alan can’t pronounce the designer’s name and he obviously bought a fake item. Apparently, Louis Vuitton does not leave any room for a sense of humor, they are demanding that the film will be removed from sale and seeking part of the film’s $580+ million profits and triple damages.
