Seizure Joke calls for film boycott by "Heroes" star


http://abcnewsradioonline.com/entert...fter-seiz.html


I recently saw the previews to this movie and my thought was I will tell everyone "DON'T see this movie!"

I saw the trailer for this movie while seeing The Change Up, and it was really really offensive. Even the theatre didn't laugh and a couple of them boo'd out loud.

There is also a line in the Change Up that describes a baby as looking "Downsy" implying the child is dumb and has down syndrome. So not funny. What is with movies these day?
