Harvey Weinstein's next movie

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.”

Mr. Weinstein then revealed his secret project about the gun rights group. “I shouldn’t say this, but I’ll tell it to you, Howard,” he said. “I’m going to make a movie with Meryl Streep, and we’re going to take this head-on. And they’re going to wish they weren’t alive after I’m done with them.”

Here's where an alliance between 1st amendment activists and 2nd amendment activists would be helpful.

Otherwise Harvey Weinstein is making himself a target for some 'Dead Ender Biker Rapist-Sadist-Nazi-Jew-Haters'...(as seen in Pulp Fiction, one of his movies)....he himself could wind up Kidnapped and 'wishing he weren't alive after they were done with him'

Hate is not a wise life-strategy. He needs a visit from his Rabbi.

So since he is that against guns is he gonna stop using them to make money, lots and lots of money?

They put anti NRA stuff in the lethal weapons too, very annoying, it's like watching a Michael Moore movie.

But unless he has pics of all NRA higher ups balls deep in some young boys from some small far away village I think we're to the point that no amount of **** talking is gonna move anyone from their current positions on their views of the NRA.

Feinsteins Folly. In it he mentions hollywood types that make millions off movies featuring gun shootings with huge body counts but who also condemn guns and gun owners.
about the 15 minute mark

I really like Kiwi Ted, and subscribe to his youtube channel. He did a tour of Normandy and had a guide that specialized in the Band of Brothers. That was really cool.

Anyway, I think Weinstein was fantasizing out loud. Sounds like bravado to me.

I got an idea, he could title it "Bowling for Columbine". Oh wait, that's already been done.

Mr. Weinstein arrogantly believes he's far more powerful than he actually is.
I will never apologize for being an American.

One of the 'Big Four' on Fox interviewed Sen Cruz or Sen Paul and his answer was 'Let the Marketplace take care of it....'these kind of attempts at propaganda have flopped in the past' I agree.

Is this the one featuring a fictional NRA president based on Charlton Heston, or was that a different one?

ETA: Different one; Sundance channel movie "Cold Dead Hands" :oops:
