fucking pathetic. do they really think that somehow an attack is going to be organized on thousands of theaters nationwide?
also, to all the people and websites now crying about free speech: this is the culture you created. many of these are the same people that demanded anthony cumia be fired by siriusxm for his mean words stated on his personal twitter account. i said then, if they do this, it is a slippery slope to allow companies to censor people if they don't like what they said or don't get the joke. well, here you go. hope they enjoy reaping what they have sown.
in the '80s, firing jimmy the greek was a pussy move as well, but it was a different culture. it happened and everyone quickly moved on. now, in this overly-sensitive, everyone-demands-an-apology, everything-is-racist culture, that kind of shit has sweeping and long-term effects. any "edgy" or "dangerous" art of any kind can now just be written off if a request is made or a single "i'm offended" tweet or hashtag is posted. fucking enraging and embarrassing, regardless of the content or value of this particular movie.
