I just checked out the IMDB page for Rush Hour 3 and saw that Roman Polanski has a role in it.
So it looks like I won’t be seeing this film.  Even though the trailer shows him getting knocked out at the end, which, I have to admit I’d be willing to pay good money to see, Rather is still giving money to a convicted child molester.

Now, granted, Hollywood exists in a moral vacuum. That doesn’t mean I have to support it. What happened to the good old days when actors stood up for what was right? I recently heard a story about John Wayne and Robert Ryan.  Ryan was a committed leftist back when most of Hollywood was conservative.  And this is during the days of the HUAC hearings. 

Well, Ryan went on the radio and made a big speech challenging HUAC for their activities. It was pretty hot stuff.  So, he drives home a little worried and there in his driveway is John Wayne holding a rifle.  The Duke comes over and says he heard the speech on the radio and that he figured Ryan could use a little help to make sure he got in his house safe.  You know that old line about “I may not agree with what you say, but I’ll fight for your right to say it:”  CLEAR SHINING EXAMPLE!

But I guess I missed that part of the constitution that gave people the right to commit statutory rape on 13 year olds.  Polanski’s no hero and you don’t see me sending checks to all the local sex offenders you can check out online.  I’ll miss what looks like some cool fights, but I’ll feel good about it.
