Anna Faris Thinks Date Rape Is Funny **Observe & Report Spoilers***

I don't have a lot of desire to see the movie Observe And Report. I already watched the other mall cop movie and I also am on a bit of an anti-Seth Rogen kick right now. So, that combined with the fact that this is supposed to be darker and has Anna Faris as the lead in it, and it screams to me, just go ahead and wait to see it.

Now though it has even become more dark and scary. Apparently there is a fairly graphic scene in the movie where Anna Faris gets drunk on tequila and pills and passes out. Seth Rogen's character then proceeds to, by any definition of the word, rape her. Anna Faris is unconscious throughout the entire scene except for one brief moment when Set Rogen stops and she says, "Did I tell you to stop?" and then passes out again.

Apparently though Anna thinks that because she delivers the one line during the rape that it becomes funny. In an interview with NY Magazine who also talks about this entire scene in much more detail, Anna said, "It's like date rape — that's funny, right?"

I'm guessing there are going to be many, many women who are going to take issue with that statement by Anna. It is one thing to have a scene in a movie where a character is raped. It is quite another to have that character say that because she utters one line it suddenly makes it funny. She doesn't deny that it is date rape, just that it is funny. Maybe she should go speak to women who have been date raped, show them the scene and say, "hey, see? it's funny." I'm sure she will get lots of laughs.
