 * Delete per above comments.--Boffob (talk) 14:40, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - OR, essay, content not backed by the sources, coatrack for Family Guy references, incoherent. I can't make enough sense of it to work out whether it's also an attack on anyone. AlexTiefling (talk) 15:13, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete makes no real sense, does it?  abf  /talk to me/  15:29, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, the topic on how kids treat other kids and how they respond to it (a serious academic issue) should not be reduced to someone's youthful misunderstanding of the cinema. The feeble-minded had their place in art long before Forrest Gump or the Rain Man, and even these aren't recent. I presume that the "article" is one of the many responses to Tropic Thunder; it's already taken care of there. NVO (talk) 17:11, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak delete because this is an essay and OR. Kind of a shame however because the concept is worth a discussion as the trend appears very real. Doesn't mean it deserves a page here though. I shall abstain from making Tropic Thunder jokes. -- Kickstart70 T C 17:43, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
