Lighten up Francis
This looks like a good movie. Does the guy know that the punch was a fake out? Does he know how to have even a little bit of sense of humor. This is what the liberals have resorted everyone to end up being.....very serious. You can absolutely not laugh at anything anymore. Such a sad state.
Politicians are doing worse to children than punching babies.
The punch happens off camera too... time to lighten up.

I’m pretty sure the Three Stooges had bits that included slap schtick and babies. This is nothing new; I doubt folks will watch this then go find a baby to slug.
As the day of the screening approached, she repeated this charge to every one she met. She was incredulous that this film was going to be exhibited at a liberal arts college.
No one shared her outrage.
She eventually dropped the class and transferred to another college.
Good grief. You must be pretty sensitive. That’s an awfully flimsy reason to boycott.

Oh please.
This is stoooopid.... it’s comedy. Funny things happening to babies in a bad way(againn in a comedic way) in movies have been done for decades.
Jeez, lighten up. I don’t plan to see the movie, but that part of the trailer was actually funny. There’s a part afterward where the politician (Ferrell) is complaining about how everybody’s all concerned about the baby but nobody cares about the damage ‘that baby’s iron jaw’ did to his hand.
In any case, it’s not remotely in the same universe as child abuse. It’s just slapstick farce.
Wow I don’t even think this movie looks good but this boycott idea is so pathetically stupid I almost have to go to show my lack of support for the boycott. Just because a guy punches a baby in a movie doesn’t mean the movie is pro-punching babies. It’s pretty obvious in just the trailers that the character is a jerk, and this baby punch is the big opportunity to finally unseat him. Then lets not even get into the silliness of boycotting all the malls that have theaters, that’s just being retarded... almost as retarded as somebody punching a baby.
The hit was an accident! He was aiming for his rival. No one thought hitting a baby was funny. They thought ‘OMG. Thats awful He just did an awful thing.
This was about how far they will go for votes/points/polls. Both of them were running to kiss the baby for a photo op and They started shoving each other to be first. Finally, Will went to slug the other guy, but ended up hitting the baby by accident.
