• “gay, shut-up, poop, slumdog, hell, damn, bastard, snobs, my god, monster, odd, pansies…”

  Is this a joke? What a worthless video. I’m actually impressed with the overall scarcity of profanity in these films.

• Who put this together, the Church of Latter Day Saints? More than half of this (shut up, gay movement, gay, homosexual, etc.) would only be considered “profane” in the religious sense, not in the vulgar sense.

• I love when Hollywood attaches the word “damn” and “f**K” to the words “God” and “Jesus Christ.” It’s so hip and edgy. It’s about time Hollywood stopped pandering to those stupid Christians and their stupid religion. Finally, Hollywood is no longer playing it vague and subtle; they’re finally telling them straight: “We hate you and have nothing but contempt for you.”

  Oh, wait… they have already been doing that. With delight. With mouth-slathering joy. For years.

  Keep costing yourself tickets and patrons, Hollywood. Keep offending — for no apparent social or artistic purpose — potential customers who desire and would pay for entertainment just like any other group of people.

  But I’m sure it’s not focused exclusively on Christians. I’m sure you also make a point to slap profanity against and between the words “Allah” and “Muhammed,” for example.

  Right?

• Boy it’s funny- moral cursaders- I don’t think these are available on DVD yet. Thank god (the he who is whithout sin one) that there is still freedom of speach. Oddly enough your piracy is a crime- but that never matters to a hypocrite. Oh- and go fuck yourself, pirate.
