think about it-if you heard there was this movie where the director had a fatwa against him for the contents of said movie, wouldn't you go see it? surprised the execs didn't just throw him in hiding and force the production of the destruction of an islamic holy site.

hell, this is all bush's fault anyway.

o, and note how hollywood loves the freedom of speech until their own ass is on the line.

what a bunch of hypocrites and cowards.

Roland Emmerich his films any more are a parody of That's Armageddon... but in all fairness getting a fatwa over a craptastic film is hardly worth it. Not like this is Gone With The Wind or Highlander II.

Andrew Breitbart....If Conservative Commentary were a Soccer Match...I'd use No Hands and Place My Balls Between His Legs....

Spot on, Greg, although it really doesn't matter since I heard the movie sucks big time, lol.

Wow you know what I really need to see....

A movie where they blow up New York, or DC, or Tokyo!



Is this even a new movie,

or just stock footage left over for 4,000 movies made over the last 50 years?

Thus the nature of the dynamite gag in "Bearing Bad Tidings"...www.bearingbadtidings.com.

It would be fun if someone with GCI and digital editing techniques could get a copy of the film pre-release and substitute even some minor Islamic shrine for one of the other religious icons destroyed. It would be fun to have a major Hollywood director handling every future movie assignment via text messaging and webcam from an undisclosed location.

verily, lets see one where we glass over the Middle Eastern continent and sell the glass to our friends the Europeans. 2 continents glowing in the dark and profit on the glassware. Win Win Win. I now pause for the epithets to be hurled in my direction.

Just goes to show you .... Never name your kid Roland... They turn out to be wimpy men.

I was totally going to watch this on USA or SPIKE one day... don't spoil the ending!

Hollywood celebs view themselves as crusaders against evil. They cite their stances on racism, homophobia, etc. Who knew that all the klan or queer bashers had to do was kill a writer to win those culture wars. I really loathe L.A.. If it didn't mean losing Breitbart, Miller, & the South Park guys, I'd say nuke 'em. (not really, but I'd like to punch LA county in the face)

P.S. I miss Baron Von Butterball and Treacher. And why doesn't Captain Whiskers write for the blog(other than the issue of fitting a keyboard into your lower intestine)?

Harold, be of good cheer. Think of it this way...We don't HAVE to nuke L.A. See..the big one IS coming Don't know when mind you but..*shrug*. Oh happy joy! I don't have to lift a finger and L.A. still dies. *does the happy dance*

PS..re the whole, 2012, mayan calender..the world is all gonna come crashing down hysteria. Did any of the boneheads that are saying all this crap consider that the Mayan's just got tired after pounding out 1000yrs of calender into stone with a hammer and chisel? Seriously people.

If they threaten to destroy my porcelain god, (that I pray to every Friday night after 2-fers at Rusty's) I will let my Kung-fu-pig-latin pal Kang-wa lay a fatwa on their arty-pa.

I thought the world ended in 2008 when the messiah was elected.

As long as our boys are killing bad guys overseas I couldn`t care less what they show on the "big screen". If some douche has sand in his hoo hoo over taking out a fake mosque, so be it – as long as I`m entertained (Case in point: I just added Crank 2 to my queue - you heard me.)

That`s what these things are for after all, our entertainment, much like pro sports and music. People have a tendency to forget that.



Speaking of my entertainment, aren`t we due for another Cannonball Run?



Impossible,



R.I.P. D.D.

i read every day but this was the funniest ever (imo) so i felt the need to comment as well just to still the incessant laughter preventing me from falling to sleep...



say, shouldn't obama be able to protect the hollywood elites from this sort of religious fanaticism? i thought his election ushered in a new era in islamic relations? isn't it for this reason he's been kissing arse, er, i me...

i mean, hands over in the middle east for the last year?



ps harold, yes, get rid of la county. then i'd have beach front property and my house might be worth what it was 3 years ago again.

JD..they could do another cannonball run but it would be made with all the *hip* new youngsters for stars. Would probably end up being an angsty emo teenage drama piece about growing up..in a cruel world. It just wouldn't be the same.

if u truly feel a fatwa is bull to a tough blogger like yourself, then go ahead w ur own trashing of some scared islamic icon.



why hold someone else accountable for that which u wont do?

"go ahead w ur own trashing of some scared islamic icon"



Someone is more into lolcats than Gutfeld. Who is more a TV guy these days. Greg has done a good deal of material making fun of Islamists and their penchant for goats. Unlike you, he has walked the walk and talked the talk and on national TV. Don't let that stop you, throw enough sloppy hay makers you may connect.

For my (p)art, I'm working up a good bladder full o' pee right now so that I can relive myself in a glass jar (that formerly contained pickled pig's feet) and submerge a Koran in it. Maybe I'll get some of that sweet NEH grant money. Let the fartwa begin.

I'm afraid you missed the point of Greg's blog. It's not that he wants to trash a sacred Islamic icon, it's that there should not be a double standard when it comes to trashing sacred religious icons. Cont..

Cont ... If the director thinks it's okay and necessary to destroy Christian icons, they should not spare the icons of other religions. The double standard is what's at issue. Either treat all religious icons with kid gloves or spare none. Consistency is the key, OhioOrrin, and Greg's been consistent, unlike the cowards in tinsel town.

nope, the overall point is the islamists who...wait for it...consistently kill people. that's the real consistency not what greg intended or what some film guy did or didn't do. take ur concerns up w the killers not would be victims.
