They've gone and done it. They've fucked up a perfectly good (possibly the best) Dr. Seuss book by pandering to humour of the lowest common denominator.

Click above and watch the trailer for the upcoming film version of The Lorax. It ends with a horrible sexist (and gender-fucked) joke. Really? Was it really necessary?
Sigh. BIG one.
I love that book more than any other children's book. And the trailer looked interesting but that joke at the end was...wow. :(
