Cheaper by the Dozen 2

Well of course I haven't even seen it yet. I don't think it's out yet. But I was listening on Conan the other night. Helen Hunt, the mother in the movie was on. All she did was diss the Catholic Church. Said she got her acting started going to Catholic Mass and acting like it was interesting. A few other things to. The usual. Real funny. :maddest: We liked the first one but this one is off the list. That's 9 less tickets they'll sell.

I'm not telling you what to do. Just telling you where I am at with the media's continuous making a joke out of Catholicism. They wouldn't have ever done that with a Jew or Moslem.

I hate Hollywood's double standard with poking fun at religions

If I ever get in a movie, and I get asked how I feel working with alot of kids, I'll smile and say, i'd envy the family reunion they could have when the kids are grown

I hate tv. It use to be full of good programs that were good to watch. Now everything on just makes crude jokes about religion and scandalizes everybody who happens to have a glimps at the horrible satire that they use to bash the Catholic Church. I think I'll stick with good movies and books from now on.

I think he meant Bonnie Hunt. She's the one playing the mother.

That's really sad.

Did she make any offending comments about the Church? I don't see the big deal about the learning to act comment.

If you haven't already, go reant the original movie made back in the day. It's out on DVD and it is wonderful. There is a great scene where this woman comes to the door and asks Mrs. Gilbreth if she would like to start a Planned Parenthood chapter in their town and she calls all 12 children into the room, and the woman is just horrified. Also, rent or read the sequel [i]Bells on Their Toes[/i]. I think the books are both out of print but you can find them used. Best of all, the Gilbreth family of the original were real.
There is also a remake out right now of the sixties classic Yours, Mine, and Ours. Again, go rent the original. It has Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda in it and is just a great family movie and demonstrates how loving and rich large families are.
Peace,
Amanda

Aside from all this, the previews look just horrible...

Yeah, they had success remaking an old movie, and because it's a family movie, they figured they'd milk people for extra $$$ by making a cruddy sequel...

What's new? :ohno:

???? Common dust? It was all a big joke, her Catholic upbringing. I don't recall everything she said but it was all making her Catholic upbrining a big joke. Nothing positive about it.
