Boycott of the ******* and Dickhouse Brand videos and merchandising

[tetsuyacasshern]

In light of recent events, I think this is the time to stop giving these selfish and irresponsabile people any money they get from endorsements or video deals. It is with this money they drink and drive and put everyone at risk.

So does that mean you won't be supporting Paramount, 20th century fox etc. I am puzzled on how you think they are selfish or more so than any other film company or group of people who produce clothes or videos. :rolleyes

They aren't the first to do this just happen to do a good job getting noticed

The difference is there profitable with selfish behavior that endagers lives and infact kill and injure those around them.

:lol I never gave those no-talent hacks a dime in the first place! :lol

If I boycotted every entertainer who did idiotic things, I'm not sure I'd be able to consume any sort of pop culture whatsoever.

It's bad enough I have to wait until the missus goes on a business trip to be able to watch The Road Warrior.

 

[Amish Trooper]

They profit by doing stunts that are professionally choreographed. They may seem stupid to you but there is no difference between them and other stuntmen besides presentation and marketing IMO.

 

[Wes R]

Only problem is they're more likely to be mimicked by morons than other stunt performers. I thought these should have been banned somehow years ago.

But your missing the point, there is a stark difference between the type of entertainment the road warrior provides and the type that ******* provides. The type that ******* provides condones public endangerment.

What public do you speak of? There little group of mini Jackasses..the animal handlers the stage builders the ones who provide the safety rigging...I mean these aren't as amateur as you think.

Actually your quite wrong when they got there start with cky and ******* the stunts they did were not supervised and were not coregraphed, yet they had endorsements to publish and sell them. The stunts they did caused a danger and hazard to society. They destoryed public property before getting approvals.

You heart's in the right place, but don't expect much to happen. The Roman Circuses are back, unfortunately.

Actually there more ameteurs then you think. I lived in the west chester area and read the police blotter. There stunts would be in the blotter before there next cky video.

Really? I spent an entire childhood trying to either fly like Superman, fight like Batman, jump over **** like Evel Knievel, jump off stuff like The Six Million Dollar Man or going through ridiculous "Astronaut Training," not to mention my delusion I was an explosives expert. I thought that was called growing up.
I'm firmly in the moron camp I guess.

Thank God I didn't have the Internet growing up or we'd all be dead.
(Or at least been rocked by a hell of an EMP.)

Actually that is not true that started out as a group of skaters and musicians and the stunts eventually grew to the degree they did, you are only making assumptions about public property with no recompense

Where do most stuntmen start? At home or friends or parks wherever then some go to schools and others just do.Your issue is moral because you don't agree with there lifestyle

 

[Amish Trooper]

Hollywood is sensationalized stupidity with stupid people doing stupid things in movies and in there personal lives if you want to just single these people out then good luck.

 

[Capn_Jack_Savvy]

I don't think I would categorize the ******* actors as "stuntmen" nor would I categorize what they do on film as being "professionally choreographed stunts!"

 

[Larry Young]

But your missing the point...

No, I'm not; I just think it's ridiculous.

Did they start killing slaves and practitioners of opposing religions, ruling families and political affiliations? I thought they were doing stupid stunts and hitting each other in the nuts.

I missed that.

Now about this ban:

I guess the drunk guy that killed my buddy was a stuntman too and not a Car Salesman.
That makes it easier to digest.

How about this...
Ryan Dunn got killed and killed someone else because he Drank and Drove. Not because of what he did for a living or who he did it with.

It's an tragically ordinary problem with extra-ordinary repercussions.

Then your part of the problem. This do nothing society is the reason why punks get ahead and excellence goes unoticed.
