Here’s the awkward thing about The Watch: Originally, it was called Neighborhood Watch, and it was about a bunch of paranoid middle-aged guys (including Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn and Seth Rogen) on a self-appointed neighborhood watch with guns. The movie coincided with the Trayvon Martin case, wherein a paranoid middle-aged guy on a self-appointed neighborhood watch shot a defenseless kid in Florida. See how that might be seen as unfortunate? Well, it turn out the movie (out on July 27th) is actually about aliens or some shit, so at least it’s somewhat removed from reality. Still, that is some crap timing.
