I was just looking on IMDB and under the Meet The Fockers was a listing about this asian media group bitching about the word "CHINK" being used in the movie.

It's amazing how people find the dumbest **** to be offended of, if some black guy called me a cracker or I heard the term cracker in a movie by a black guy I ain't gonna bitch or whatever I would probably laugh due to the context it was used in... Some people out there need a slap up side the head.

People can be offended by far smaller things than that, how's it surprising? lol Anything to make money IMO. Cups hot doesn't say caution hot but its common sense its hot, ppl still tend to take it to court sue make money. You would think someone would make a career out of suing companies for retarded things like that [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] lol

Has anyone seen the movie? I went to see it today.

The whole chink comments are based on early in the film when Robert DeNiro says something to the effect of "we don't need a chink in our chain"... referring to his family and ben stillers.. in NO WAY whatsoever was that being racist or directed towards any culture.

And to my memory that was the only part in the movie that word was used, the rest was taken out. (unless I missed it).

in closing.. some people need to get a life, some need to a get a clue.. while others need to get both..

thanks for listening canada! stayed tuned for more earth shattering news!

Saw the movie last week, started off sloww, but had some very funny parts. I give it: [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

It's kicking ass in box office it was out for 12 days and already grossed like 163$ million the first made a total of 166$ million. It would be nice to see these dumb ass people who get offended and just kick the **** outta them lol

ahh yes...racist comments. you gotta love em and take em with a grain of salt...i remember back in high school there was this girl who was chinese, and she was born with a birth defect on her face where her chin didn't fully develop, so she really didn't have much of a chin. anywho, as the story goes, we started to call her "k" and she couldn't figure out why...finally one day someone told her - your a "chink" minus the "chin" so we call you "k". ouch, that's gotta sting!
