1. And corrupting school admissions for the non wealthy offends me.

2. World class Air Dicker.

3. I cant remember the last porn i watched where 18 people died

4. Isn’t he the dude who blows his own brains out in that porn movie?

5. This guy literally beat people with a shovel in a movie.

6. Funny, since my first William H. Macy recollection is a movie with a dude shoved down a wood chipper. But ok…

7. wasn’t he in Boogie Nights?

8. Says the star of the film adaptation of Edmund.

9. I guess the The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is a dirty smut film.

10. So Saving Private Ryan is porn to him, but killing someone and running them through a woodchipper is acceptable in a movie?

11. Say it ain’t so Little Bill!

12. I remember people thought I was weird when I told them Jurassic park was my scariest movie I couldn’t handle. Then I would explain I was only 4 years old at the time and I watched a T. rex eat a bunch of people in a bloody screaming mess. It was not enjoyable

13. There does seem to have been a shift in how violence is portrayed in media lately. It has become very gratuitous, and so often aestheticised. A shift from violence to ultra violence. With any shred of humanity to it removed.

14. I agree with him. But I disagree that there’s anything wrong with that

15. So he thinks Hollywood should never make another action movie ever again? What about war movies? Period films depicting war or atrocities? Movies based on historical genocides? None of that? I guess we should forget about all these since it offends him.

16. …. But I like porn
