			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the courts of law there is a statute of limitations that defines that maximum amount of time that can pass after something occurs before it is brought to court. But this is e-court of the iNternet, and there is no statute of limitations on apologizing. Which is why I would like someone in Hollywood to make amends for the short-lived Bruce Willis animated series <em>Bruno The Kid</em>. </p>
<p><object width="450" height="364"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dEuuBfB0HRI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dEuuBfB0HRI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p>Yes, that is a CGI Bruce Willis face that is creeping you out. And YES, that is Bruce Willis singing the very bluesy intro. In the cartoon, which seems to be a frustrated reaction to the success of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRnyGnvsdwk"><em>Life with Louie</em></a>, Willis was the voice of Bruno, an 11-year-old boy, who is recruited by the top secret espionage organization, The Globe, who don&#8217;t know he&#8217;s 11 because he only talks to them via computer and uses the CGI Bruce Willis face to disguise himself as a lecherous 40 year old with a penchant for fedoras. No. This would all be bad enough if it was just some mis-managed attempt at creating a child&#8217;s entertainment, but <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Return-Bruno-Bruce-Willis/dp/B000002ZB0">Bruno is actually Bruce Willis&#8217;s artistic alter-ego</a>. This cartoon was some kind of Bruce Willis wish-fulfillment being played out in the realm of children. And that is disgusting.</p>
<p>I have done extensive research and as far as I&#8217;m able to tell there has never been a public apology from either Mr. Willis or the President of Entertainment. America waits.</p>
