    Steven Spielberg to Next Direct Harvey 

    Hollywood is emotionally, morally, spiritually and creatively bankrupt. Make a fucking original film for the sake of fucking fuck.

    Steven Spielberg will direct as his next film a contemporary adaptation of Mary Chase’s Pulitzer Prize winning play “Harvey,” a co-production between Twentieth Century Fox and DreamWorks Studios. The announcement was made today by Fox Chairmen Jim Gianopulos and Tom Rothman and DreamWorks partners Stacey Snider and Spielberg.

    Harvey is the first screenplay by the best-selling novelist Jonathan Tropper.

    The film will be produced by Spielberg and Don Gregory, with Elizabeth Gabler and Carla Hacken overseeing the project for Fox 2000, which acquired the rights to the original play in 2008.

    “I am very happy to be working again with my friend Tom Rothman who shepherded us through ‘Minority Report,’ and with Elizabeth and Carla, who I’m looking forward to… [From Steven Spielberg to Next Direct Harvey]

    Children with guns 

    Since when was giving kids guns and training them how to use them such a bright idea? I mean if you Google “children with guns” then you come up with either images of 9 year olds who are enlisted in some African or Asian para-military organisation or articles on what a bad idea it is for kids to have guns.

    However, it seems that the Boy Scouts of America are training young lads and lasses to combat “terrorism” and patrol American borders. This wins the newly instated “most fucked up thing I saw today award”.

    The responding officers — eight teenage boys and girls, the youngest 14 — face tripwire, a thin cloud of poisonous gas and loud shots — BAM! BAM! — fired from behind a flimsy wall. They move quickly, pellet guns drawn and masks affixed.

    “United States Border Patrol! Put your hands up!” screams one in a voice cracking with adolescent determination as the suspect is subdued.

      Clmon man. Those guns only look real. Those kids are learning to fight terrists withpellet guns! Besides they’re boyscouts. They’ll probably grow up to be like the cop in the village people.
