| That's one of the best movies of all time. The "aquatic rodent" sequence made me laugh so hard, I thought my eyeballs would explode. If at first you don’t succeed – try, try again and then quit. There’s no sense in making a damned fool of yourself. – W.C. Fields | |||||||||||||||||||||

| YET ANOTHER example of Christian hypocracy in America. I guess this is what happens when fanasty stears morality. I bowl in a league and fucking LOVE that movie. And yes, white russians do make you bowl better. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness. Laziness is only lack of incentive."

| Do you think non theists would censor words in movies? I don't. Breasts, vaginas, dicks and swears are of the devil or some such nonsense. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness.

| The issue is getting the movie on Network televison. Honestly, do you think we need a movie where practically every other word is "fuck" playing during family primetime? If you're going to go there, then let's go ahead and play the full versions of songs like "Straight Outta Compton" by NWA and "Payback's a Bitch" by Slayer on commercial radio. Hell, then why shouldn't "fuck" be allowed in prime time commercials.. or news broadcasts? "Wow, this is a fucking great fucking pizza!!!" "Buy this fucking car. It fucking hauls ass." "Holy shit, Jane, it looks like the Democrats are kicking the fuck out of the Republicans, according to early exit polls." "Boy, that hurricane sure turned New Orleans into a cluster fuck, didn't it, Tom?" "Fuck yes, Steve, I'm reporting live from downtown, and the water is up to my fucking balls." My answer is this... it was a STUPID idea to think this movie ever belonged on network television to begin with. It's a great fucking movie, but just not for that particular forum.

| I would be perfectly ok with radio, television, movies and ads saying whatever they want. This is America after all.

| Yes. Just because I'm atheist doesn't mean I believe children should be exposed to harmful (to them) material on day time television.
