1. Epic has done so many great things for gamers most importantly giving its crossplay system to devs for free we should support them. I'm sure the actor does not care about us.

2. They should give him some VBucks to calm him down XD

3. To everyone down talking this, imaging creating a dance move that becomes really popular, then some company used that same dance in a game, 1. gives no credit, 2. then turns into micro transactions and makes millions…?

4. Good

5. Well its his dance.

6. no one cares ign

7. Hmm I see where he's coming from. If the dance was in the game for free that's cool. But they are selling it.. So I guess he does derseve some compensation

8. Man they make tens of mils every day they shoulda been kicked them out a few bux it would had even been a prob for lik 2 mill

9. Carlton striked back

10. one of many GOOD….

11. That’s wild

12. FINALLY

13. Yall act like this is new….back in the day micheal jackson wouldnt hesitate to sue if you used thriller dance or did the lean without asking. The very fact we know where they came from and associate those with them is enough.

14. Doom multiplayer had the same dance emote in it right?! Where was he then?

15. I don'pt play fortnite, but if the dances are being sold by the developers, then the originators should be compensated.
    And yes this is going to start something.
    I thought about it when id hear kids talk about fortnite then do the dances i know of from elsewhere.

16. Every sueing

17. I think I've seen it in a few games tbf but good hope fortnite dies down soon

18. Good….

19. Why do people hate fortnite

20. I hope he wins it and it costs Epic lots of money!!!!

21. This needs to become a trend for fortnite

22. I Don’t Blame Alfonso Ribeiro for Suing. If I Was Broke And Had To Ride The City Bus I Would Sue Too. Poor Alfonso He’s Like Gary Coleman working A Phoenix Mall As A Security Guard. ?

23. Oh boo hoo

24. You can't make something and use someone else's material without their permission or give them royalties. That's common sense. Yes small games can get away with in because they aren't making enough money. But fortnite is huge now and making millions of course this is going to happen.

25. Bruh. It's a dance.

26. Good, they deserve it. Die game!

27. Unless he copyrighted it there isn’t anything he can do about it. And for the people that think you can’t hold a copyright on a dance move Michael Jackson holds patent for the moonwalk. And furthermore the band kiss stole the name from another band and gene simmons filed and holds a patent on the name. Just another has been actor looking for a handout

28. Get that cash carlton
