They do that to show how tolerant they are. Now if it was about Mohammad, well then .....
Yup. As a non-Catholic, I will avoid this so-called “comedy.”
Here, here.
As a Christian, I never thought of anything in the film as derogatory towards anyone.
Well, except for the Jersey Shore folks, but they needed mocked. That alone was worth the price of admission.
There are some who go out of their way to find ways to be offended.

Good, an honest review by someone who FREAKIN ACTUALLY SAW THE MOVIE.
I’m tired of hearing rants against a show, from folks who haven’t even seen the show. So, Kudo’s to you, my FRiend.
Thanks for posting!!
I WON’T be going to the theatre to see this movie. There are just some things that Hollyweird should NOT remake. The Three Stooges fall into that category.
They had to get a dig in on “The Weekly Standard” as one of the villains was reading this in bed. Probably few noticed this but I did - basically a gratuitous introduction of politics. Which, btw, was completely out of character as that
character would never be reading such a magazine. Also, the villains tended to be “1 percent types” so there was definitely a fanning of the class warfare flames, IMHO.
It'd be hard to make a comedy about a murdering child molester.
I wonder how the original Stooges would have taken this new version, considering that they were all Jewish. A lot of the old vaudeville acts had Yiddish roots.
Honest? Huh, some KIDS never grow up, and you don't have to see trash to know it's in there based on the general content.
Quite right. As I reflect on my fondness of the original Stooges, I think of who may have been offenced by them. So far I’ve come up with carpenters, plumbers, firemen, policemen, doctors, prisoners, cowboys, foreign legionaires, football players, and door to door salesmen - and those are just from a few of my favorites...
Exactly. The Stooges were one of a kind, and there’s no possible way to recreate what they did. Let them rest in peace, and don’t insult their memory with some piece of trash.
I haven’t seen the movie, have you?
Or, are you just having a grand old emotional tyrade, knowing nothing about the charges ... and calling other people who want to know the actual facts, “kids”? Maybe they made fun of Nuns, maybe they didn’t. I don’t know, and chances are you don’t either. This “Kid” is withholding condemnation until I have an idea of what I’m talking about.
If you want to carry on, get a parade going, march up and down your block - singing and carrying signs. Knock yourself out. Why not? The Black Panthers are having a grand old time with Trayvon and Zimmerman.
But, you’ll look pretty stupid when someone shows you that you don’t know what you are talking about .... again.
