I'm sure most of you have seen the Direct TV ads where stars reenact scenes from movies, well there is a new one out that has been causing some controversy. It has a scene with a deceased Chris Farley doing his "fat guy in a little coat" routine from Tommy Boy with David Spade doing an update on his part.
Now when I first saw this I thought it was in poor taste, mostly because I got the vibe that Spade was suckling on a dead man's teet. I was wondering what you all thought about it? After reading this article (where you can also see the commercial) I've changed my mind about it.
