Movie Stirring Controversy Over Repeated Use Of Word "Retard"

[lawyertom1]

What''s to defend? It is a sophmoric, idiotic farce. I would not pay to rent it (let alone see it), but if someone wants to make a very silly, juvenile movie and others want to pay to see it, that is their right. In the end we are all dead, so lighten up.

I bet it gets chopped up like Blazing Saddles.

It''s all a matter of degrees. If you''re smart, you get to be rich. If you''re sorta smart, you can get a decent job. If you''re dumb, you have to struggle to make a living. If you''re very dumb, you get medicare, free housing, free food, transportation, and get to be pretty much free from worry for life. The last people in the world who care about the R word are people who fit in the category.

This guy isn''t even funny. He wouldn''t where he is today if he didn''t have famous parents who are hilarious. He''s riding on their coat tails.

well the ''funny'' thing about hollywood is that the same ol group of people have been the only one''s making ''good ol fun'' of everyone else at someone else''s expense for the longest time. since the beginnings of mass entertainemnt there. i think most are getting tired of being the brunt of the stale hollywood jokes. especially the paying consumers. well at least i am. that''s fer sure. maybe start hiring a different kind of people for a change...morons.

Just lighten up w/ all the PC garbage. Lets just set up a central database for every person on the planet so we can all be sure what we about to say work hurt anyones feelings. BTW, I have a 6 yr. old niece w/ downs syndrome. Sweet little girl. I am NOT offended by the term ***. Take your shots at me - I dont need to defend myself on this.

Shouldn''t we be more worried about the F word, the teen porn, and the promoting of same *** reletionship in movies today. I don''t like the word retrade either, but come on.
