I think the really important part of the article was where she pointed out that we can't really judge based on ten seconds of clip--we will have to wait and see. Considering that these kind of movies rely on crack humor to begin with, I am thinking that it is likely NOT B.C. making light of trans people but rather the same kind of borderline-in/appropriate humor that these sort of movies apply to everything from race to history to social status to sexuality to gender. Truth is, 99% of stuff in these movies isn't politically correct. If we're going to take on one issue then we might as well also comment on the sort of statements that are made about the intelligence of people from foreign cultures, the way people of different sexuality act, how people of different ethnicities interact, etc. It certainly doesn't seem to be targeting gender issues anymore than it is targeting a million other groups. Not saying that makes it right, but I wouldn't sign the petition for this reason, not based on those ten seconds.
