Imitation: (Noun) The action of using someone or something as a model.

Jason Bateman is fighting back against the retardical accusations that the film Juno is to blame for a string of teen pregnancies in Gloucester, Massachusetts.

“I don’t know the specifics, but I can speak about what sort of responsibility entertainment should hold for social behavior. Unfortunately, we’ve had these instances where guys kill people because of what they hear in rock ‘n roll lyrics or some garbage like that. Look, if you’re going to blame a movie or song for your actions, whether they be good or bad, I think you’re looking at the wrong things to influence your life.” (Source)

Puh-lease. Like teenagers ever needed to find an excuse to fuck. No offense, but if even if kids were going to base their actions off of an Academy Award nominated film, I'd hope they could have found something just a little more inspired than Juno in last years selections. Take No Country For Old Men, for example. I mean, did you see what he did with that air compressor? That was redonkulous! Now if I was a kid, you can bet your sweet ass I'd be emulating that. So if that should happen, and you know, some kid out in the midwest starts blowing holes in his classmates skulls ... By all means start your "blame the movie" witch hunt.

Just because he's a total hunk and I love him: Jason Bateman getting molested by his Hancock costars on TRL (and sadly not me).
