Hitler took the guns, Stalin took the guns, Mao took the guns.
He's a raving conspiracy theorist, but there is a pattern there, I have to agree.
I totally agree with Job on this one! Obama is just as bad as those guys!

Actually Hitler gave people guns, lots of them. Didn't do them much good. Mao and Stalin took guns from people they'd been fighting in a civil war, so the analogy makes little or no sense (the average Chinese or Russian peasant didn't have guns to take in the main).

Actually, Germany almost won the war.

But the context is in taking guns off the people before you oppress them - and the vast majority of German's weren't oppressed - they were mobilised.

For a second I thought you were talking about the tv series turning into a movie.

Still sounds good though I hope they get Keanu Reeves for the role of Constantine if they do make the film.

Good God, why? It was a travesty that John Constantine was Americanised in the first place.

The idea itself sounds...OK, but the problem will be its an ensemble movie with a bunch of characters that most people don't know, without the lead-in movies the Avengers had. The first three-quarters of the film would be (pretty sketchy) origin stories. Hollywood hasn't really shown its got the bottle to simply get to the plot without laboriously establishing the characters, and in this case you really would need to show why Boston Brand can occupy people's bodies, or what Etrigan is etc.
