Bath and Body Works is suing Summit Entertainment!?

Hey guys! I was just surfing the web and I saw this article about how Bath and Body Works it suing Summit Entertainment. For anyone who shops at B&BW, you know one of their newish scents is called 'Twilight Woods'. Well, B&BW is saying that the title of the fragrance doesn't infringe the trademark on everyone's favorite vampire hit, the Twilight franchise. Apparently, Summit thinks that B&BW stole their design and color scheme from Twilight.


Oh, yeah. These colors are exactly alike.
“The term ‘Twilight’ is used so as to evoke the idea of a particular time of day when the sun is just below the horizon, illuminating the landscape,” the lawsuit says. “Whereas defendant uses the term ‘Twilight’ to refer to defendant’s teen vampire saga.”

From the sounds of it, Summit has been getting into all sorts of legal business with all sorts of people and companies! Everyone's trying to make a buck.

Personally, I think this is pretty stupid. When I first heard about B&BW's new line, yes, I automatically wondered if had to do with the Twilight Saga. Then, you realize that it's not, and LET IT GO, something Summit seems to be having trouble with. I don't see the resemblance in color palate either. I mean, Twilight Woods has this kind of, pink and amber thing going on. When has the Twilight Saga ever been pink!? And so, readers, it seems that I'm going to have to take B&BW's side on this one. Besides, I love my Twilight Woods hand soap, hand lotion, body lotion, and hand sanitizer. Yeah, it's good stuff. ~Peace, Love, sniff sniff
