I am not sure I'd go to see it in theaters, just because someone there might think that the movie is an instruction manual. I don't own a TV because the idiocy that it spews is bad for my health. Still, I swear that every time I see part of a "reality" show when I am out somewhere, I sort of wish someone would actually do this.

This flick looks mildly amusing, and I'll probably pay the $10 to stream it.

"Why have a civilization if we aren't interested in being civilized?" - Couldn't say it better myself.

EDIT:
Patrick, I accidentally hit "flag" instead of "edit" so can you help me un-flag it? Thanks!

Everyone will pan this movie and some future massacre will pin the blame on bad example, and if I tell anyone I watched they'll think I'm a potentially Postal person or something. Or maybe I'll just watch again this old movie:

Reminds me of a Michael Douglas Movie " Falling Down " Except the new mass murder videos seem to have a sense of humor. Isn't that special.

Bobcat has dark/black comedy down pat! Not sure but I've watched a bunch of clips and found a quotes page for God Bless America and I'm sold. I'll see it, if I can (limited release? hope not). Found the clips and such here if anyone's interested: http://www.ranker.com/list/god-bless-america-movie-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes
