Welcome to Studentfilms.com, the online film discussion forum for filmmakers and students who are applying to film school, attending film school, need advice on making films, or just want to share their films with the world.
I'm sorry. Just didn't do it for me. Thought the beginning was disgusting...I don't know if they were trying to shock the viewers into going against Bush or saying that Americans love to watch people dying. The comparing Bush to Hitler isn't good. Sorry, but to ME (and I stress to me because it's my opinion) Bush and Hitler are in two completely different ballparks. Also, there are brief flashes of people and signs saying "We support our troops" etc. Is the film therefore comparing Americans to Nazis? I also didn't understand the random cuts of wrestling events and Bob Saget.
Eh..just didn't do it for me. It didn't seem intelligent enough. Don't get me wrong, the "movie-making" aspect of it was good...I enjoyed some of the cuts but the underlying theme I did not like.
Instead of debating your comment, I merely suggest you check out the messageboard at www.bonerproductions.com and read the post entitled Americans Only. I hope that can clear up the intent or purpose of it. Rightly so you should question the intelligence of it. Politics is a subject that requires much intelligence, so it is only natural that we question what we see, hear, and absorb everyday.
I dunno, I'm tired of anti-Bush propaganda. It's played out, it's overdone, and it's unnecessary. However, my views and your views will most likely differ as I am a (very liberal) Republican. I disagree with a good chunk of what Bush says and does, specifically the Iraq situation.
I did find the America's Funniest Home Videos thing quite amusing though. The video itself wasn't bad, just the subject matter is played out. It's old news.

Well just with the election coming out, I found it was in good timing to have this viewed by the people. Please read the statement on the messageboard. P.S. It's not pro-bush.
