Slip ‘N Slide Lawsuit
Wham-O, makers of the Slip ‘N Slide water toy have sued Paramount Pictures because of the scene in the new movie “Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star” in which actor David Spade jumps face-first onto a DRY slip and slide, resulting in some painful looking nipple burns. Apparently they did not approve the product’s appearance, and object to the numerous safety rules being violated. They are calling for the offending scene to be removed from the film and from promotions. That’s a shame… it looked like the only funny moment the movie had to offer. “Aren’t you a little big for this sidewalk?” just isn’t going to cut it, Paramount.
