Seems like a good idea. Afterall, they don’t use any real actors in his movies either.

Here's the part of Johnson's statement that fascinates me: "... but I can tell you, without an absence of clarity here, that any movie ..." Double negatives, like the passive voice, are very interesting to me. The phrase without an absence of clarity here means, I think, "with clarity." And that prepositional phrase, in itself, is totally superfluous. Would we think that if he had not included that phrase, that we would think that his words had no clarity? Johnson takes what should be a straightforward, common-sense declaration, and gussies it up beyond almost all recognition.

I’ve never watched that lowlife leftist in any movie, ever.

But still use a gun, real or not. What a woke dope.

He voted for Biden, and his mental capabilities are pretty much fried.

Fair enough, in exchange I’m willing to pay for a ticket to one of your movies with a rubber nickel.

I think it is a good idea.

If you know you are too stupid to manage them properly, you should never have one around you.

Obviously that is your conclusion.

He wants to run for president someday. You can see that he is a real genius! Think about it they’ve been making movies well over a hundred years. I don’t recall a single incident of anybody being shot by a real gun during all that time. Maybe it’s time to investigate who wanted this woman dead and why. I suggest they start with the lawyer firm that her husband works for.

They are so concerned about the safety of their fellow actors but don’t give a crap about the horrific scenes of ultra-violence they peddle to the masses.

Whatever you do don’t use dreaded “pop tart” guns.

“We’re going to switch over to rubber guns, and we’re going to take care of it in post.”

Ah. The old fix-it-in-post ploy.

Guns capable of firing a real cartridge should not be on the movie set. Problem solved, unless you put it up to one’s skull.
