“Our systems have unfortunately confused the title of the movie America, because it’s a common term and appears in many movie titles,” a Google spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday. “We’ve updated the Knowledge Graph, our database that stores this type of information, but it will take some time to display showtimes and other details for this movie....”

TRANSLATION: "Our systems got confused because YOU confused them! Not only does your new movie include the same word as your last one, but it's a word so generic that dozen's, if not hundreds, of movie titles ALONE use it.

Furthermore, you clearly do not understand how the Internet search engines work. There are things that have to happen known as "indexing" and "spidering" -- it can take weeks, if not months, for newly created Web sites and pages to show up in ANY search engine!

"If you'd wanted instant online exposure, your marketing budget should have included the purchase of online advertising. But between your poor book sales and increasing legal bills, we wouldn't be surprised if you DIDN'T have a marketing budget!"
