Harvey Weinstein and Meryl Streep to Make Movie Slamming the NRA

[waynesan]

Movie mogul says new Streep film to make NRA ‘wish they weren’t alive’

 

 

Movie producer Harvey Weinstein announced for the first time on Howard Stern’s radio show that he is making a full feature drama to try to destroy the National Rifle Association.

Mr. Stern asked Mr. Weinstein on Wednesday whether he owned a gun. The Hollywood heavyweight replied that he did not and never would. “I don’t think we need guns in this country. And I hate it,” the producer said. “I think the NRA is a disaster area.”

F*€£ em both with a garden hose. 100' even.

[jcoosi]

If they don't like how this country was set up go pound sand. If it wasn't for guns then we would still be under rule of the crown or worse.

[enfield]

Oooohh!  Quaking here!

Just another spoonfed elitest living in some fantacy dreamworld. He should think about what mediocre ratings Michael Moore got for his movies before he spends his money. The NRA is alive and well and will stay that way.

I wish I knew how I could possibly care less about this...let them spend their money on their little movie.

It will be a huge success, just like that one about fracking for natural gas. Nothing to worry about. Just more liberal elites saying

nothing to no audience.

There was a move about fracking for natural gas???

[E4 No More]

Humm, announcing the fact that you are making a movie to destroy an organization? I see a law suit in the making. :)

When I think influential, I think Harvey Weinstein and Meryl Streep.....

[Commando68]

I really just don't get it with the Hollywood types. It's as if they are from another planet. I could rant here, but instead I'll take a nap.

[Raoul]

You'd think a man named Weinstein would know better.

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it, and all that.

[Mark@Sea]

Gee, another liberal propaganda piece.  Doubtless it will sell hundreds of tickets.  No wonder Hollywood has turned to remakes of remakes to make money.

[TripleDigitRide]

I was listening to the interview in real time, and Howard Stern did bring the Holocaust, being a Jew, himself. Harvey wasn't having any part of it.

[satalac]

It's odd that Harvey has put out movies in which guns are used and very prominent, yet thinks they are horrible. But he wouldn't possibly profit off of guns now would he?

[Daniel]

He produces Quentin Tarantino's movies.

Actually, in the article quoted in the OP, Mr. Weinstein commented on this very subject:

Also, the producer said he would have used a gun to stop from going to a concentration camp if he “found a gun, and if that was happening to my people.”

Mr. Weinstein has been watching too many movies if he thinks the good guys find fully loaded firearms in convenient locations to use only when necessary.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the first post.

Beck's response. It's a good un...

Ironic that many of Harv's movies feature guns guns guns:

 

Reservoir Dogs

Pulp Fiction

True Romance

Jackie Brown

Equilibrium

Sin City

Grindhouse (Planet Terror)

Django Unchained

 

etc.

I am going to enjoy watching yet another Hollywood liberal crash and burn.

The chairman of the Weinstein Co. (formerly Miramax) is one of President Obama’s biggest fundraisers. He brought in more than $500,000 from his Hollywood friends for the president’s re-election campaign and the Democratic National Committee in 2012.

The 5 million members of the NRA are law-abiding Americans who are active in preserving the right to protect themselves and their families.

Mr. Weinstein thinks guns are necessary for self-defense, but only in other countries, during genocides and if the weapon is not personally owned.

I think he’s saying ignorant stuff just to get the movie in the news.
 

Mr. Stern pointed out the inconsistencies in Mr. Weinstein’s earlier comments about a project about Jews defending themselves during the Holocaust. The producer replied that the justification for using a gun is “when you’re marching a half of a million people into Auschwitz.”

Its too late then.

[frankmako]

it will be just like the al gore movie, a big money maker that people will stand in line in five foot snow to see.

Expecting logic and rational thought from Hollywood liberals is like going to see a Disney animated film expecting it to be a documentary.
