    In reply to Sacha Baron Cohen Will Face Either a Suicide Bomber or a Lawsuit, or Both
    I like that being associated with terrorists might get him "in trouble," but being associated with homosexuals would get him killed.

    Weren't there permission forms to be signed? Is the problem that they weren't in Arabic?

    I think we owe Mr Cohen our support in the form of DVD sales. These are the front lines of civil rights, you guys.

    Btw, this story would be a lot juicier if the kid were roughly 27 and born in 1982, when "Billie Jean" was released ("The kid is not my son..." etc.).

    It's been well established that I have a strong attraction for at-times inappropriate, uncouth, and usually drunken cads. So this Kiefer Sutherland news has me currently catching the vapors.

    I know he has money, lots of it, but I have never understood why/how Billy Joel gets so many chicks. Rich, yes, but he's a drunk and he looks like Billy Joel.

    @Trixie from Toronto: My godmother's ex owns this shipbuilding business with him and he seems like a nice enough guy when he's not drinking. I think the major draw is that he wrote "Only The Good Die Young", which seems to be the sexiest song ever if you are a middle-class white girl.

    Ho boy. The Mirror maybe should've done a little googling about Omer Bhatti: it turns out he was questioned by investigators about porn and "Jesus Juice" in the last round of sexual abuse allegations: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/michaeljackson/0227051jacksonsexed1.html

    @Queen of the Passive Aggressives: Why would the family place him in a prominent spot at the funeral if this was going to pop up? I am sure there was another seat he could have sat in that would have avoided any speculation as to his involvement with Michael? This total lack of awareness is ridiculous for a family that has lived in the spotlight!

    @TriedandTrue: Maybe they just want to have him join a jackson tour - I'm not kidding...they are greedy folks and this kid could stand up front and represent michael. Then when he's a little older they can add Blanket as the "young" michael. I'm seeing a 5 year vegas run here.

    @polypam: I so want this to be true: some possibly gay Euro kid copies dad's moves and raps over his 90s beats? Amazing. But it just looks like another copycat kid to me.

    Who knows why he was front row at the funeral. Maybe he's become good friends with the family.

    It is called word of mouth. maybe now that twitter makes that happen fast enough to impact the opening weekend, Hollywood will have to rely less on marketing and more on quality to get that first three days.

    @The Curse of Millhaven: One could hope that they'd make better movies, but you could also say that the three examples were poorly marketed.

    Bruno clearly wasn't going to play in the hinterlands; Year One had the kid from AD playing his stock character and Jack Black being Jack Black, the movie just screamed "wait for cable" and the PG-13, Will Ferrel thing was never conceptually explained, plus it was marketed with a urine joke.

    Good. Maybe these sucktastic marketing departments that have been running Ho'wood for the last 4 decades will die a quick death and we can get back to making worthwhile cinema.

    I wouldn't rely on a Twittered opinion of a movie anymore than I would go onto a website where people rate products. With or without the internet, you can figure out if a movie is worth seeing. More often than not, just by watching the trailer.

    @kookla: You can fake product reviews. You can fake a good trailer out of a bad movie. You can't easily fake thousands of people sharing their good or bad opinions of a movie.

    As far as I'm concerned, Twitter opinions count for a lot.
