Since Show's Demise, Roseanne's Halloween Episodes Have Grown Notably More Anti-Semitic
It's been a little while since Roseanne Barr's made headlines, and she quite naturally has attempted to rectify that by employing that Hollywood option of last resort: baking "Jew cookies" and dressing up as Hitler for a photoshoot. Sorry, Jennifer Love Hewitt -- this idea's been claimed!
The aegis for this shoot was to commemorate the "Germany Issue" of the Very Irreverent magazine Heeb, written by and for Jewish people (irony!). It's fun to be blasé about the prejudice and tragedy historically directed at your people, though I've noted this is often easier to do if you have parents that are financing your Williamsburg loft.
Take this sentence! "She nails the Fuehrer's facial expressions with twisted glee, and as she takes the burnt gingerbread 'Jew Cookies' out of the oven it occurs to me that Barr may be the last celebrity utterly incapable of giving a fuck." No, really. Take it.
Here is another photo:
Good on Roseanne -- Skids and Brüno shouldn't have to do all the heavy lifting in this summer's roller derby of questionable taste.

If Laurie Metcalf was doing it, it would have actually been funny and not desperate.
Where were Hansel & Gretel when you really need them? This was the perfect opportunity to shove a real witch into the oven.
So I saw a screen of this tonight. I went into it thinking it was going to be dumb because of the title but it was actually the opposite. The movie was surprisingly very funny and it held my attention all the way until the end. Their adventures are VERY funny and would definitely watch it again. There are allot of sexual based jokes, a ton of surprise's and more than I bargained for. There were some "heart warming" parts too. I did see this for free but I definitely think I would pay to go see it. I definitely would put this movie pretty high on my list. To any adults with children, there are allot of sex, drugs, and bad language in this so beware. So my verdict is when it comes out this is a must see.
