Outraged Star Wars fans are lining up a protest against the Weinstein Company, which they say recut and ruined the film Fanboys.
Originally about a boy with cancer who treks to Skywalker Ranch, the edited version of Fanboys (which played to approving audiences at the 2007 Star Wars Celebrations in Los Angeles and London) allegedly sanitizes the terminal illness right out of the plot, thus giving the film a more mocking attitude toward the fans.
In protest, the Save Fanboys site urges Star Wars aficionados to picket The Superhero Movie, a spoof flick that Weinstein is releasing March 28.
Though one can almost feel the outraged spittle flying from the computer screen, give the organizers some credit for having a tiny sense of humor.
