Are the Toronto Maple Leafs getting any money from the movie The Love Guru?

Question

They are obviously in the movie are they getting any money for the use of the team name?

Answer 1

If they are they don't deserve it.

Answer 2

I really can't say... but I definitely doubt it. Its promotion for the leafs. Good promotion too. I doubt it was hard for mike myers, a diehard fan who talks about the leafs on leno and letterman, to call mlse up and say, "can we film some shots in the air canada center and feature the leafs in my movie?". I beat mlse chomped at the bit. He's mlse's favorite celebrity, I bet.

To your other question, mlse(maple leaf sports and entertainment) is already swimming in money, too much money probably. That's why the leafs suck. And they can't use it on players, salary cap. A few drops of water in the pot, I suppose.

Answer 3

maybe, but if they are getting money then it will just go to general arena maintenance or something, nothing exciting like free agency

Answer 4

Not that I know of, but then again I wouldn't know.

Answer 5

2eightyeight is exactly right

Answer 6

Mark Bell should have been Best Supporting Actor, they can deduct it from his community service time for yet another DUI

Answer 7

i was gonna ask that too! i wanted to know if it was really them? But i guess so

Answer 8

They probably are through the use of their trademark logo and other copyright legalities like that.
