    Default Guns America Email about Anti Gun Movie!

    Email GunsAmerica.com Sent out regarding the anti gun movie The Iron Giant... do not buy it, do not watch it! for the sake of your kids! think of the children!
    Hi Everyone.

    I would just like to warn gun owners and especially hunters to NOT BUY a movie on the rack at Wal-Mart this week called "The Iron Giant" for your kids. It looks like a great movie and overall it actually is, but it demonizes deer hunters and guns in general. It is THE WORST I have seen to date. The focus on the gun and say "guns kill" over and over again. The whole point of the movie is that the robot doesn't want to be a gun.

    If you don't want to be surprized by a movie you innocently bought for your kids, avoid it, really. They could have introduced the concept of death to the big robot any number of ways, but the Hollywood elitists chose to use deer hunters.

    These hypocrite trained monkeys probably went to lunch at Arbys everyday to eat a cow that someone else killed for them, WITHOUT A GUN.

    Blech blech blech why can't these idiots understand that America has real problems, and none of them have to do with hunters or guns.

    Isn't The Iron Giant 10 years old?

    Almost.

    I just check the Internet Movie Data Base (IMDB.com). They have it listed as coming out in 1999.

    If I remember this movie correctly, I don't recall anything about guns being in there. Nor anything about hunters, but perhaps I'm not thinking of the right movie? The one I remember was a huge robot with a kid friend, and they helped fight deforestation or something.

    Got the GA email and this post on another forum and still scratching my head. I liked that movie and I wasn't into guns then. I am not sure what the fuss is all about. They should've sent one about Bambi out instead.

    I have watched it with my kids quite a few times and didn't think anything of it. Not sure what the fuss is about.
    If I remember correctly, the robot saved the deer from the hunters.

    The Iron Giant is a fantastic movie. Great for adults and especially for kids.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Iron_Giant

    Read the plot summary in the wiki to see that whoever sent the email in the OP clearly had no idea what they were talking about.

    Ditto, except replace kids with Grandkids.
