Apparently aiming to head-off audience backlash amid tense days in the news, HBO / HBO Max decides that Gone with the Wind needs some new context and Elmer Fudd needs a new… weapon? Is any of this actually addressing anything — and was anyone even asking it to? The Big Picture takes a look.

This is The Big Picture with Bob Chipman, talking about HBO Max, Gone with the Wind, Elmer Fudd, and all the messy details.

Note from the editor: Apologies for the delay on this! We figured it’d be overshadowed by our Indie Showcase event and the PS5 reveal, so we decided to hold it till Friday. Enjoy!
