I'm aware of the url mishap with the dolls and vaguely aware of the poster controversy but I've also seen people online call it a PR disaster and I'm entirely out of the loop on that

That doesn't sound like the movie studio dropping the ball or anything. If it was a fan edited poster, that's completely out of their hands.

The problem was not the fan, it was how the actress reacted.

the row had nothing to do with the movie studio, or the movie, really.

a fan edited the poster, the star said her feelings were hurt in too many words and too dramatic a fashion, and the internet en masse told her to shut the fuck up and she was so selfish for sharing her feelings, she should stop attacking people (she didn't) and she should silently accept whatever was coming to her since she was a public figure (she shouldn't) but as a public figure she wasn't allowed to express herself(she is).
