Alfonso Ribeiro is the latest celeb who's got beef with Fortnite's pop culture-influenced dances -- and now he's suing the creators of the game for jacking his own.

If the dances were legally copyrighted, then they should pay. If theyre not, then they shouldnt pay them.

Epic is making money hand over first. They could've simply paid the man and garnered the good PR. either that or crowd source the community for dance ideas.

I think the issue they (both Alonzo backpack kid and 2 others) are having is they just added them in rather then asking first

I don't think Marlon Webb or Nathan Barnatt are suing, but like... Epic... just stop stealing.

Theres no case in suing the default dance. Epic isn't making money off of Alfonso's dance, its free for everyone to use.
