Ben Stiller's 'Focker-In-Law' post swamped by people vowing not to…

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHere it is, the story we hinted at: Ben Stiller posted a promotion for his new movie, Focker-In-Law, and the replies filled up with people swearing they won't see it.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe film co-stars Robert De Niro and Ariana Grande and comes from Universal Pictures.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBreitbart reports the replies included lines like, you couldn't pay me to watch.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWhy would you announce that you won't watch something?

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentAnd the post now has more replies than the trailer had fans. Stiller basically got free promotion from people who hate it.

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFree promotion. I once saw a Pixar trailer and wept, and nobody replied to tell me they'd skip it.

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorReply to that one, Kenji. I dare you.

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBrock, tell us whether the forecast is also being boycotted.
