this answer is simple... 12 years olds get pregnate so they get social assistence and don't have to work. they don't know how to be a mother so they blam the media.

as much as its been said before and will be said we need to take action. the recent war in iraq with all the shit and gore put on tv then. so what do u think is corrupting the kiddies bush a bit of fake scary fun or some real violence where actual people get killed and it isnt effects. plus so called kiddys shows the teeletubbies. if their not homosexual then im married to monica keena. and you tell me that barney taking all those kids and hugging them that hes not a perv. you see the very programming designed for little kids is actually whats warping them not the fake horror we all know and love.

What can we do.

people will blame whoever they want, religion (or lack of), media, or the how the moon and stars are placed

fact is, a movement against horror movies aint happenin. a few religious fucks armed with crosses and idiot housewives who sit in front of the tv or comp and dont watch their kids arent gonna do shit.

NOW, if some director were to make a movie lets say about.. a school shooting? that would be a different story. but i dont think there would be anyone that stupid or insensitive

so what im trying to say is.... there is no movement! because there is no problem! now hunger, homelessness, illiteracy, terror, aids... THose are problems. try thinking about those before you start worrying about losing your horror movies

I guess you haven't seen Bowling for Columbine.

fluffho 04-01-2004 01:58 PM

uhh.. was that a horror movie? that movie is irrelevant as the message and point of it is ENTIRELY different than a horror

freedy vs jason, scream, ringu = horror
bowling for columbine = documentary

:rolleyes:

So a horror movie can't have social commentary?

....... reread the first post

fredhead is talking about how people will blame horror movies for causing kids to burn themselves, kill each other etc. how people want to censor horror movies

bowling for columbine has NOTHING to do with this. i can see why you brought it up as i had mentioned school shootings. but that is irrelevant. this topic is about horror censorship, not what makes people go crazy (there alreadya topic on that)

And you do not think they will go after Horror movies eventually? There is a movement to sanitize everything in American society. Just ask Howard Stern.

fluffho 04-01-2004 03:45 PM

i know theyre on it.. so?

they got on rap ever since ice t released 'copkiller.' now personally i think that was off of him. even before i thought about becoming a cop, telling people to kill all cops is a total different story. ice was stereotyping, and even he decided to get rid of it

just cuz theres a movement doesnt mean its gonna get anywhere. peta and greenpeace is a powerful movement and has been moving for how long now. rap hasnt at all changed or been censored. besides, freedom of speech protects all of this. along with the nuts saying 'get rid of all horror movies' there are gona be just as many if not more nuts saying 'freedom of speech' so if people want to waste their time fighting on either side of this debate, then so be it

like i said in my first post, there are SO many more worthy problems that need to be addressed before you worry about stupid crap like this.
