Politically correct films

There was one on yesterday evening on ITV4.

It was about a vertically challenged white guy who teams up with an autistic boy, an overweight Afro-American and a skinny single women to defeat the might of the American National Security Agency.

Was there a gay icon in there too?

JH, not that I'm aware of, but the single woman was rather skinny and didn't end up getting married to the vertically challenged white guy, so maybe she was a lesbian?

I'm guessing you missed the Hollyweird preach about the evils of technology (amusingly enough by using Avatars) that was called Surrogate.

Better than the sexist, elitist Thomas the Tank Engine. http://physiocrat.blogspot.com/2009/12/thomas-tank-engine-attacked-for.html

AC1, I'm proud/ashamed to say, I've never even heard of Surrogate.

P, somebody once described Thomas as "dull, leaden and moralising" which sort of sums it up for me.
