Steven Spielberg Isn't Here for Carl's Jr's "SpielBurgers"
BIG NEWS GUYS!! As a tribute to the legendary director of #ReadyPlayerOne, we’re going to change the name of our Charbroiled Sliders to #SpielBurgers. @StevenSpielberg hasn’t signed off yet, but we’re pretty sure he’ll be down with it. pic.twitter.com/botJPM0Hjn

Problem is, they really didn't ask, and WB was not here for this.
Not to be deterred, Carl's Jr sent a rep to try and deliver the burgers to Spielberg at Amblin Entertainment. Except he wasn't even allowed entry. So they left a note on his car, but it was the wrong car
Steven Spielberg himself finally recorded a video that while the sliders are "pretty good", he's gonna pass. "Cease and desist. Can't do it. Sorry guys"
Carls Jr is just happy for the promo
