    Oh Jesus Christ. Here we go again. More celebrity fellating (not a stab at the fsrteam, a stab at Universal). Head on over to Slashfilm for your dose of morons being depressed because some idiot pop singer died.

    I'm usually enough of a bastard to agree with you Tucker, but I don't really see the problem with Universal's decision last night. If they cut it from all future prints then yes, it's ridiculous and pc, but trimming it for a premiere on the actual day Jackson died is a pretty decent thing to do.

    Also, your new clown icon is creepy as hell. I prefer the one that looked like SNL's Fred Armisen.

    I should have clarified my comment. I only said that because I think they'll probably keep it cut from future releases.

    The icon is from a new show in the UK called "Psychoville".

    Yeah the whole shebang went down just 8 miles from where his body was so it seemed fitting. I'm all for having some humour about it though, I just received an email from Frankie Boyle (controversial Scottish comedian) that contains an article for the 'Daily Record' that caused him to quit, as they refused to run it. It is shockingly funny.
