Am I the only one on this board (and it is very possible in this liberal place) that is getting sick and tired of seeing the way "gun owners, country people, rednecks" are being cast in movies nowadays?
Just finished "Without a Paddle". While it was a decent movie and had funny moments, the ridiculous representation of the "good ole boys" although they were criminals, was just a little over the edge. Because they owned guns, they were made out to seem like imbeciles.
While I understand the "poetic license" of the writer/director, this was just another example of the typical brainwashing that the leftists liberals are trying to impose on others when watching their films.
Blah!

Anyone that gets brainwashed by any film, much less "Without a Paddle," deserves a slow and painful death anyway. You can have Washington, but we'll always have Hollywood. So suck it up and don't go to the movies if you find yourself so influenced by what you see.

I like how conservative accuse Hollywood of being a liberal breeding ground, but Hollywood is just as sell-out and whorish as the rest of the capitalist, corporate America that they all love.

Hunting doesn't make one a redneck. Hunting religiously however...
Seriously, if people want to argue about guns, we have at least one recent thread in the News and Debate Forum on that topic. Let's keep this thread limited to how Hollywood portrays such things.

Actually meat from hunters is probably a lot more humanely killed, less pumped full of anti-biotics, and not forced to eat their ground up relatives. But hunting cattle just doesn't seem like a real challenge....
I wish we didn't have to kill anything and I wish we didn't need guns.
