And by the way, you're a POWERSBOOTHE FAN? What about the role he played wherein he was Jim Jones of the Peoples Temple MASS SUICIDE? What about all the 900 folks who were driven to kill themselves because of that madman Jim Jones? Powersboothe did such a smashing job playing him... what about reawakening all of the grief of the original event for those people and their loved ones? Oh that's DIFFERENT, right? Sure it is, but so is your idiotic logic. As I said, grow up or go back to DU and play with the other sissies. Free Republic is for real men and women, not weaklings.

My logic is idiotic? Powers Boothe is an actor and his role as Jim Jones was just that. A ROLE. The movie was not meant to be insensitive,or to open old wounds.Come on. What about movies/documentaries about such tragic events? They are meant to educate,at least as far as the documentaries are concerned. Did ‘Guyana Tragedy’ poke fun at Jones’ victims? No. I don’t need to grow up because I don’t think jokes about a woman’s terrible,tragic death are funny. Jokes about any tragic events are not funny.

If I’m a weakling because I don’t think Natalie Wood jokes are funny then so be it. I’m not an immature kid who thinks mean jokes are funny.
