God Bless America – Trailer

Normally I’m irritated when I hear whining about how gun owners are portrayed, but…

Judging by the trailer, this movie won’t do anyone any good.  Have a problem with someone?  Shoot them.  Problem solved.  *facepalm*

Thankfully this movie is rated R.  Not that a rating will stop any impressionable kids from seeing it anyway.

In theaters May 11, 2012.

Thoughts?

I’m going to turn my PC alarm completely off and say that this movie desperately needed to happen.

AmazingKG3 February 1, 2012 at 12:13 am

You do know Bobcat Goldthwait made this movie? That guy is insane, so in my books free pass

ENDO-Mike February 1, 2012 at 01:00 am

I did not know that. That guy is insane, I could never get into his comedy.

Phil February 1, 2012 at 12:28 am

This movie looks awesome.

MrMaigo February 1, 2012 at 01:02 am

The movie that HAD to be made

Skinner February 1, 2012 at 02:04 am

So is this the replacement for natural selection? Not bad….

Ross February 1, 2012 at 02:09 am

Oh, sometimes we all just really wish we had a license to weed out the assholes and bring things back. Respectful people that aren’t on their phones at the movies, people who drive with sanity, etc.

ozwald February 1, 2012 at 08:13 am

i take my slingshot to the movies. i nail people in the head with airsoft pellets if they talk. i have steel bearings for antimateriel purposes for phones and shit. i once wrecked a dude’s iPhone, while he was starting a round of angry biirds. you might say “oz, that this is dangerous and slightly sociopathic.” and i’ll just say “hey, at least i’m on a path.”

NikonMikon February 1, 2012 at 10:12 am

Yeah none of that happened.

Poppy February 1, 2012 at 01:17 pm

If someone starts talking in a movie theater I just walk up to ’em without saying a word, whip out my dick, and straight-up cockslap their face.

True story.

RWC February 2, 2012 at 02:04 pm

I would say “oz, why are you bs’ing us again.”

Linoge February 1, 2012 at 05:30 am

Oh. Good. A movie that accurately portrays how anti-rights cultists think we all behave.

Yay?

Cory February 1, 2012 at 06:07 am
Andrew February 1, 2012 at 06:52 am

Pretty much. It also sounds like it’ll be chock full of pseudo intellectual speeches and monologues. But hey, it’ll make a million because everyone likes to pretend their never one of the assholes who get killed.

Frank February 1, 2012 at 07:00 am

^This also.

Weer'd Beard February 1, 2012 at 07:29 am

Beat me to it buddy. This is why “Progressives” want to ban guns. Because secretly they want to kill everybody they don’t like.

Ernest Young February 1, 2012 at 04:16 pm

Didnt someone from the Violence Policy Center or the Brady Campaign go on record as saying
“It’s normal to want to shoot someone for not agreeing with you”

I think statements like that, right there, prove what kind of people we’re dealing with here.

Linoge February 1, 2012 at 06:10 pm

Joan Peterson, Brady Campaign Board Member and Million Mom March local president:

“It’s just natural to want to shoot someone when you don’t agree with them or have a beef or you’re drunk and can’t quite think straight. It’s just natural to allow 30,000 victims of gun violence to occur every year in the U.S. We should just accept the natural order of things then.”

RWC February 2, 2012 at 02:07 pm

Oh gawd. Thanks Linoge.

“It’s about the gundorks belief that the Constitution *recognizes* rights. Such a notion is outdated, and should be put to rest. The Progressive Judge Sotomeyer has it right, during her confirmation hearing, she proudly stated that the Government *grants* rights. And that’s what we need to tell our elected officials when dealing with public safety. Your safety. Our communities, and children’s safety depends on it.”

Poppy February 2, 2012 at 04:06 pm

But I thought we, as Americans, had “rights endowed to us by our creator.”

Or does the Brady campaign think it’s smarter than Thomas Jefferson now?

Josh February 1, 2012 at 08:25 am

I like it. I especially like when he lets the woman in the theater live and thanks her for turning off her cell phone – there was a woman at the library the other day who sat down at the table next to me and had a very loud ten minute conversation on her cell phone. If I had been armed I may have shot her! I also support his decision to shoot the douchebag who’s taking more than one parking spot!

bigghoss February 1, 2012 at 09:36 am

Oh yes, I fucking hate those assholes that take up 2-4 spaces in the middle of the parking lot at wal-mart. Dude seriously if you’re so worried about your car then drive a shittier one or park in one of the spots 3 miles from the door where nobody ever parks. Just because you’re upside-down on a $60,000 truck that you never haul anything with doesn’t entitle you to take more than one spot. Your poor financial decisions and lack of impulse control do not make you better than anyone else.

If I owned a business I would probably go under because I’d have half my customer’s cars towed for parking like douchebags.

bigghoss February 1, 2012 at 09:38 am

Who knows maybe it doesn’t have any depth or underlying (or blatant) social commentary and it’s just a lighthearted comedy about how we all hate assholes. Maybe…

Dano February 1, 2012 at 03:39 pm

That’s what I’m hoping for. At least that’s what the movie would be to me.

Josh February 1, 2012 at 09:43 am

… park in one of the spots 3 miles from the door where nobody ever parks.

Agreed. It depends on what I’m driving at the time, but if I’m concerned that someone might open their door into my vehicle, I’ll park out farther than other cars are. I’m not a lazy piece of shit – walking an extra couple hundred feet isn’t going to kill me!

DaveP. February 1, 2012 at 09:46 am

Bobcat Goldthwait?
He’s still alive?
Oh yeah- it’s just his talent that’s dead.

Kevin February 1, 2012 at 12:09 pm

This looks pretty funny, and it seems to have some cool scene of shit I’d really like to see; Such as killing idiots from shitty TV shows, or the double parkers. Hopefully no one is dumb enough to take this shit seriously and go “OH GOD WE NEED TO BAD GUNS ASAP”.

Vhyrus February 1, 2012 at 01:12 pm

As long as no one sees the movie and says “OH GOD WE NEED TO KILL ALL THE POP CULTURE CELEBRITIES!”

Poppy February 1, 2012 at 01:14 pm

OH GOD THE GUNS ARE WHAT DROVE THIS MAN TO KILL! WE NEED TO BAN GUNS ASAP!

paul kimble February 1, 2012 at 12:30 pm

paul kimble approves this message.

Jwhite February 1, 2012 at 01:13 pm

WOw… I’m going to download this movie eventually, but strongly suggest a boycott of some kind. This is absolutely ridiculous. This movie looks like a 80-90mins of every shitty situation television shows put characters in to portray firearms owners in a bad light.

Adam February 1, 2012 at 01:29 pm

It’s the Michael Douglas film, Falling Down without a conscience.

shockfish08 February 1, 2012 at 01:58 pm

Its kinda like Super but… more killin’ :P Goddamn that looks fun, even if it fails at a bunch of things

JonMac February 1, 2012 at 03:07 pm

I was just going to say Super meets Falling Down, but I’m beaten to it. Whereas Falling Down choked at the ending, Super was no-holds barred, and the better for it.

Dave February 1, 2012 at 04:14 pm

I think some of you guys might be overreacting. It’s an independent movie with a limited release. It’s being written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait. And it also looks like it’s gonna suck. I really wouldn’t worry about it. Did I mention it’s being directed by the bad guy from Police Academy 2?

bigghoss February 1, 2012 at 06:47 pm

And he was also a good guy in Police Academy 3 wasn’t he? Or one of the others. Or a few, they made 7 of those dang things.

Aaron Y February 1, 2012 at 06:35 pm

I agree, this is a movie that should have been made a long time ago. However, and I the only one that got remind a little of George Carlin with this?
“I do something you don’t like, I think you have the right to kill me.”
“So the next time some asshole says I have a right to my opinion you say oh yeah, I have a right to my opinion and my opinion is you have no right to your opinion. Then shoot the fuck and walk away.”

editor February 1, 2012 at 07:21 pm

‘natural born killers’, for the Naughties?

Dom February 1, 2012 at 07:47 pm

AMAZING!!!!!

jpcmt February 1, 2012 at 08:45 pm

Nice! Loved the American Idol stage scene.

Dave February 1, 2012 at 09:13 pm

I really don’t think anyone is going to take this movie seriously.

Dave O March 7, 2012 at 09:05 am

I’m not going to let my entertainment be controlled by how it affects children. Fuck that. This movie looks awesome, I intend to see it ASAP.

Vicious pork August 2, 2012 at 07:24 am

The guy who wrote this movie should be sewed.
He stole my way of thinking bout this world and made profit out of it.
Does that make him a jerk also?
Glad i’m not alone ;)
This movie had to be made indeed, to make people think about their way of livin and there actions against other people.
State schools are on the base of it together with the media like commercial TV stations and music TV
Nice one UNITE
