My friend Renee has a request that she is trying to get out there to all of blog land and I wanted to help her. She wants people to boycott the movie Tropic Thunder with Ben Stiller and Jack Black. You can read all about her reasoning here.
To sum it up for you though the movie discriminates against the mentally challenged. It makes mean derogatory comments about them and it's just not right. So if you were thinking about seeing Tropic Thunder then I ask you please don't. I had no intention of seeing it before. Now I most certainly do not wish to see it because my friend asked me not to and I agree that making fun of someone just because they are a little different is wrong. So please keep this in mind when making your movie selections. Tropic Thunder is a must NOT see movie!
