‘Ninja Turtles’ poster pulled back amid 9/11 concerns

Paramount Pictures Australia hastily deleted a tweet promoting the new “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” on Monday after some pointed out that it seemed insensitive considering the movie’s 9/11 release date.

The tweet included an official poster for the movie that shows the turtles jumping from an exploding skyscraper.

The poster was also posted on Paramount’s official Facebook page, but appeared to have been deleted as of Tuesday morning.
