More Dirt From Channel One – Joe Dirt

September 4, 2001

From Jim Metrock: I have just rented "The Adventures of Joe Dirt."  It
is out in the video stores this week. Channel One first advertised this movie
to children on April 11. Teachers stood by while the students in their classroom
watched the commercials for this sick film.

Obligation believes that it is unethical for a teacher to allow any commercial
to be shown in their class.  It is almost criminal for a teacher to be
helping Channel One encourage children to see movies that contain the material
in a movie like Joe Dirt.

Joe Dirt meets a women who is thinks is his sister. He
has sex with her. She later tells him that she couldn’t be his sister.  They
then land up in bed again. But now, in this scene, he can’t perform.
She says that it must have turned him on to think that he was having
sex with his sister.  So the next scene shows the outside of her
house as she is yelling "I’m your sister!" and he is yelling, "Your’re
my sister!" – they are obviously having sex.

This whole movie made fun of poor whites in the South.
The stereotype is that poor whites have sex with family members.

This is just a sample of the filth in this Channel
One-advertised movie.    Channel One executives laughed
all the way to the bank.
In this scene, Joe Dirt is a prisoner of a cross-dressing
serial killer.  This is a take-off of Silence of the Lambs. Joe
Dirt is at the bottom of a well inside the madman’s house. The pervert
is pictured here wearing women’s underwear, slippers and makeup. Channel
One seems to love movies that contain references to cross-dressing (Head
Over Heels) and bestiality (The Animal and Head Over Heels) and anal
and oral sex (Dude, Where’s My Car? Head Over Heels, and Joe Dirt).

After Joe Dirt is saved by the police, there is a
running joke about what his perverted captor might have done to him
sexually. Joe denies anything happen.  One person tells Joe
that he heard the man shoved a roman candle "up his bunghole."

This movie got a big thumbs-ups from Channel One,
but many parents would be appalled.

In another scene, Joe misunderstands a man with a
Cajun accent.  Joe keeps saying, "You like seeing homosexuals
naked?"  When children came out of this school-endorsed
movie, they needed to take a shower. The filth was constant.

Teachers who allow Channel One to be shown to young
people ought to be sent to the principals office for a reprimand –
except for the fact that the principal is even more culpable than
the teachers.

Pictures are dark because of anti-copying protection
on tape.

 Joe Dirt is standing beside a body bag. He is saying
goodbye to his dead friend. He is describing the body of his friend’s
girlfriend. The corpse slowly has an erection.

Nothing is off limits in the movies promoted by Channel
One.

To Channel One executives, children are simply a source
of revenue.  To them, it’s no big deal dumping this garbage
on kids.

Parents need to sit their child’s teacher down for
a "heart to heart" talk. Teachers need to be told
that they will not under any circumstance show Channel One to their
child’s class.

Teachers, principals, and Channel One executives ought to rent the movie and
see the filth they allowed to be pushed on children. Then they ought to get
on their knees and pray that parents and the public will forgive them.
