***but we did not have the massive gore that exists today.***

How true! Back in 1968, Bobby Kennedy was murdered and the news media lead the anti-gun anti-violence hysteria. Adult TV shows were dumbed down to kiddie shows. Pulp fiction changed their covers to have less blood and sex. Movies on TV were butchered to remove even the remote hint of violence.

Movies on the screen? Well, the industry said they would police themselves with a joke of a “ratings system”. This unleashed the most vile bloody sexually explicit movies ever made to audiences. The spurting blood, exploding heads, bodies torn apart became the normal from that day forward.

Hollywood must raise the gore bar with each new film because people have grown accustomed to extreme violence and now, that is not enough so it just gets worse and worse to the point that nut jobs live out there cinema fantasies by mass killing because, it's “cool”.

How many times can we see New York or LA destroyed by:

1) Martians
2) The fog
3) The cold
4) Airborne sharks
5) Robots
6) Earthquakes
7) Godzilla
8) Nature rebelling against mankind
9) Apes
10) Dinosaurs
11) Etc.
