Nickelodeon accidentally uses Pooh's Adventures poster

This terrible crossover was enough to make the late A.A. Milne and Stephen Hillenburg roll over in their graves. Good job, Nickelodeon.

Pooh's Adventures is a crossover web and fan fiction series featuring a bunch of fictional characters together in one place, often invading a pre-existing movie or show. One particular case was Bowser and his son, Azula, Winnie the Pooh and his comrades, Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, and the Psycho Rangers invading The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004).

Nickelodeon has a hidden camera reality show called The Substitute, where someone pretends to be a substitute teacher without the students knowing. In one episode, John Cena was featured as the substitute. He had to get into hair, makeup, and costume to be a convincing substitute. When they were talking about his makeup artists, like Academy Award-winners, Tony & Barney (who is doing special effects), it is mentioned that they had worked on various movies, including The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa and the 2009 version of Star Trek.

However, it showed the Pooh's Adventures version of the poster, instead of showing the official poster version for The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. This was just lazily made as pictures of other copyrighted characters are pasted and ironic on the part of Paramount Global due to their overzealous copyright policies. They not only infringed on the copyright of the Pooh's Adventures Wiki and whoever made the poster but also of the characters featured in the poster (for example, Winnie the Pooh, The Little Mermaid, and Star Wars belong to Disney and Super Mario and Pokémon belong to Nintendo), except for those owned by Nickelodeon and Paramount Global in general (such as Azula).

Luckily, on October 13, 2019, the error was fixed. However, the Nick version of the app still uses the fan-made poster.
