'I look like Michael Jackson!'


Why the hell do they always cut this line out when it's shown on television?! It's like one of the best lines in the movie! I don't give a *beep* if he died or not it's such a funny line and I get pissed when I watch it and wait for that line only to see it's cut out.

I think its more unsettling to hear it knowing he has been accussed in the past of fiddling with the films star, Culkin (and Im not talking violins).

I remember watching this on cable some years before Michael Jackson died, and that line was cut from the movie even then.

Like the above poster said, I think it was because of the controversy involved with Michael Jackson and kids. I guess the cable censors thought it would be inappropriate to have his name uttered in a kids' movie.

Line was left in on TV last night here in Australia.

That's because Australia don't care about pissing off anyone! It's why I want to live there!

What? That's lame. I always remember that line, and I haven't seen the movie in 15 or 16 years at least.

Watched for the first time last night on Canadian cable and the line was there. I felt like it was sort of an uncalled for line.
