How many complaints does it take to bring down a poster for a blockbuster movie? Apparently, 17, if you live in the UK.
After the above number of people complained that images of Angelina Jolie on two posters for her summer hit Wanted glamorized guns and violence, the ads were banned by Britain's Advertising Stan
dards Authority.
One of the offending posters featured Angelina crouching and pointing a gun skyward and the other showed her splayed across a car
hood while wielding guns.
Universal Pictures, the company behind the ads, stood by the posters, saying that they were representative of the film's comic book style.
