I actually already signed the petition about 2 weeks ago. The man is a moron and makes horrible movies, and I don't want him getting the rights to certain franchises and ruining them.

Granted the petition doesn't accomplish anything, since he won't stop making movies. He did actually say he would with a million signatures, but it was said in jest, and was done mostly for publicity to promote Postal. He's since gone back on it, I think, once he saw how fast the petition number was growing. The petition IS a meaningless exercise, but I personally believe pretty much all petitions are. Petitions about human rights, animal rights, or changing government policies almost never really accomplish anything beyond establishing a group in opposition to something, which is exactly what this petition does.

And hey, if I can be spiteful towards some moronic Hollywood rich-man, I'm going to sign the petition.
