Also when we were kids, how often did we pretend to do kung fu after watching a bruce lee film? howevber, i believe these are short term effects and are usually forgotten the next day. although a powerful and disturbing film and scene can stay in your memory for years.

It's still all about 'thinking' and 'actually doing'; people can have several evil thoughts but it doesn't mean they will actually do anything. I will never believe it has anything to do with movies, music, or video games; it's all about a person's mind. Simple as that.
