This article is SO right on. The decision makers in Hollywood are scrambling like mad, looking for a money-maker. What they STILL don't understand is US, mainstream America. They are horrified that violence appears once again to be popular — toy guns, G.I. Joe, etc., are back, big time. Odd, isn't it, that they make violent movies while doing their best to create a non-violent world?

Behind Enemy Lines looks like it would be worth renting. One of the channels is doing the Scott O'Grady story tonight in conjunction with Behind Enemy Lines promo. Either Discovery or History, I think, but I can't recall which.

Well put. I've often wondered how the very actors who make millions of dollars starring in shoot-em-up action films can turn around and make speeches in public about how guns are evil.
