Exhibit A of why we’ll win a new civil war.
Seems to me that I grew up watching shows like The Rifleman at an early age, and I still haven’t shot anybody yet.
Or even had an accidental discharge.
My first Boy Scout merit badge was marksmanship.
Tell me again how guns, and using them in service of our country is bad, again?
I strongly recommend this movie.
The crying and calling each “baby” over and over in the preview they show endlessly on TV made me say, “No thanks”, to American Sniper. I’ll stick with The Sands Of Iwo Jima for my war movie.
Hollywood types thoroughly enjoy casting themselves as heroes and heroines, engaging in incredible (and impossible) feats of daring-do, the filming of which invariably involves stunt doubles if the slightest risk to the star is involved. When confronted with real heroes who actually risked all to defend their freedom and liberty they get really steamed.
And they’re just getting started.
And their God Obama is leading the way must keep the thumb screws on them until logic seeps in.
I have not watched the movie, I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to. I don’t think I’d be able to handle it, seriously, I know that sounds crazy but the promos even tear me up. Everyone I have talked to that has went to see it said that it had a profound impact on them. Everyone sat quietly at the end, watched all of the credits and then were extremely polite and subdued upon leaving the theater.
Chris Kyle is not just an American Sniper, he’s one of thousands of American Heros from our military. RIP
I intend to see it this weekend. I’ve been reading stories of people being turned away because it is selling out so often.
Hollywood will take the coin from the movie,but they’ll never the movie any awards!
Debbie Schlussel called this film left wing propaganda! There’s always someone I guess...
I wish Hollywood would just go bankrupt!
They make movies we don’t want to see and on the rare occasion when something Americans do want comes out, it’s shunned by the elites, all the while they call us homophobes, racist, gun loving war mongers that should do as they tell us in spite of how they live.
Creativity is gone in Hollywood. They are so afraid of political correctness that the writer, directors, and producers won’t touch anything that might actually be a fresh idea....unless of course it’s perverse in some way, you know, loaded with homosexual proclivities for instance! Then it’s call art but if a movie like American Sniper comes out....nope can’t have none of it.
They’ll make the NoKos look like pikers, these American Leftists.
While it shows lots of violence, nothing was done to glorify shooting of anyone other than the bad guys and depicted Kyle's difficulty in taking out a woman and child who posed deadly threats to Americans in Iraq attempting to bring some kind of order to that country.
Kyle was shown as not terribly able to reconnect with his wife during his times at home but as it was told from his own words (presumably as I have yet to read his book), it neither makes him out to be anything other than who he was - a guy who loved his country, his family and his fellow soldiers.
He saw what he did as a job that needed doing and he just so happened to be very good at it.
He wasn't lying around looking to take out women and children in a foreign country but rather protecting his men while they did a job that we as Americans called upon them to do, i.e. rid the world of a bunch of people bent on using WMD against other countries, whom they hate merely for not following the brand of evil they follow.
The huge box office take.
You would think these morons would buy a clue as to how to make some real money instead of merely playing around on celluloid with their own weird fantasies. The world is their oyster but they would rather produce crap that they enjoy and want to promote.
But MURDERING UNBORN CHILDREN is OK with the F’ing leftists!!!
hollowood is an empty place situated on the pussific — er — Pacific coast.
Spielberg was set to direct this at one point. He didn’t like the low budget of the project and withdrew. Fascinating to think what that would have been.
Bttt
