I like to take messages away from trailers. If it’s “Terminator Salvation”, it’s that robots will rise up and destroy us. If it’s “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince”, it’s that dark wizards will rise up and destroy us. And if it’s this new trailer for “Orphan”, the message is that adopted children will rise up and destroy us. Do not adopt orphans. They’re orphans for a reason and if God wanted them to have parents, he wouldn’t have killed their parents in the first place.*
“Orphan” is in the spooky-child genre of horror and I find that it’s a genre that you either love or hate. Personally, I can’t be scared of something I can dropkick. The trailer looks like a remake of “The Bad Seed” except with adoption and since we’ve pinpointed “adoption” as the problem, we can make sure to avoid it just like we do machines and wizards.
Check out the trailer after the jump. “Orphan” hits theatres on July 24th.
*Yes, I do sometimes stop and marvel at the awful things I write.

I find it sad that our society has gotten to the point where we can make anything into a mockery or a “joke,” regardless of how sensitive the issue. This is the most tasteless piece of writing I’ve read in a long time.

Clearly you aren’t an adoptive parent or adopted child… Or much of a thinker.

I can not beleive the insensitive and hurtfull theme of this movie. There are millions of orphans that have been adopted by loving families. They are no different than any of us. They are victims of circumstance, not some vendeta by God. This type of tripe will scar many orphans and their families. This is a blatant attempt to make money off of the misery of others. These are real feeling human beings that have been hurt enough without rubbing salt into their psycological wounds. I have one word BOYCOTT!

A lot of adoptive parents are angry about one line in this film: “It must be hard to love an adopted child like your own.”
How pathetic that they chose to be angry about this movie line but are perfectly content that their adopted child’s birth certificate was permanently sealed from him/her with their permission! Yes, adoptees have to live their lives carrying around “amended” birth certificates and are NEVER allowed to see their original birth certificates containing their true names and the names of his/her true biological parents. Adopting parents get to have their names placed on the amended certificates as the birth parents! What lies!!!! These violations of a child’s rights does not concern the protestors because it works for them! It’s not their ethnicities, their heritages that are sealed. No, their newly purchased child will be forced to accept these lies are his/her truth. These self-righteous idiots own the copyrights to their adopted child's identity and could care less that it's FICTION that on the child's birth certificate. It’s downright disgraceful and pathetic what people choose to protest.
I’m an adoptee. A lot of my friends are adoptees. We want “Orphan” t-shirts to wear proudly because getting angry over one-liners and not giving a hoot about our civil rights is laughable.
Please sign the petition to help Esther, because no one should have to kill for their birth certificate:
