Troubled superstar Michael Jackson is so upset about a joke made at his expense during an upcoming movie, he's reportedly suing the makers. Dimension Films, the studio responsible for spoof flick Scary Movie 3, are preparing to face a case brought against them by the Thriller star, who's allegedly angry about a Jackson-related child sex joke. According to American website People News, lawyers are in the process of trying to get both the trailer and the ending of the film cut to remove all reference to kids, Jackson, or both. But media law specialists think he'll struggle to enforce any changes. Legal entertainment expert Michael O'Connor says, "A lawsuit isn't as easy as A-B-C. Parodies and comedies have a lot more license. If a film is meant to be humorous and that's understood, then most likely it will not be considered defamatory." Jackson was the focus of a police investigation in 1993, following allegations he sexually abused a 14-year-old boy.
