Le Monde Says 'Non' to Disney's Star Wars Review Contract
Spoiler alert: Disney's French reps goofed.
Towards the end of today’s explanation by France’s Le Monde newspaper as to why readers should not expect a timely review on Wednesday of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (the film opens there two days earlier, Dec. 16), there is this sentence:
Certainly, we can agree with Mickey Mouse that “spoiler” is a sin.
However, that in no way means the paper was willing to agree to a release outlining Disney’s definition of plot spoilers, and punishment if those so-called spoilers were put forth in review form by the signatory, in exchange for access to the advance screening Tuesday night.
