Meanwhile, behind closed doors, the execs are rubbing their hands with glee over the all the publicity.

I know I’m an old fogey, but I believe movies that portray explicit violence are sick, and it’s getting worse all the time. There seems to be no form of torture, bloodletting, or murder that is off limits. It’s porn just like explicit sex scenes are porn. To what base instincts does this disgusting gore appeal? As the Bible says, put no worthless things before your eyes.

Whatever, but just out of respect, they’re going to have to pull it - and not after the weekend, within the next hour.

It’s a tough decision, a lot of people are counting on the revenue, not just the execs.

They’ll regret it if they don’t.

Just my opinion.

100% agree. We are evidently quite a small group that sees it that way. Never expected the end times to develop in any other fashion.

Those of us who remember when movies were not so violent or pornographic can see the danger. Younger folks have lived their whole lives with these movies and see them as the norm—and they can’t help but see what the movies portray as the norm as well.

“Pushing the envelope” and the greedy desire to be edgy are ruining our culture.
