Not in those terms, but it's pretty well understood before you even see the movie title.

It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity.
If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente.

His neighbour next door seems like a FSA kind of guy. That little apt and that hot car?

Interesting premise and characters, but to me the story never got on the rails and tended to wander. I was never sure what I was supposed to want to happen or not happen with either the characters or their mission, the latter of which didn't unfold as much as just randomly happen. IMHCO it's a flick whose reach exceeded its grasp, unfortunately.

If anyone is interested, there is a Bob Goldthwait AMA thread on Reddit:

>What exactly inspired you to write God Bless America?

[–]Bob_Goldthwait
When I was in England, there was a My Super Sweet 16 marathon and it depressed me to no end.

>Do you worry that your latest film, God Bless America, may inspire acts of violence/vigilantism? If not, why not? If, so how do you wrestle with that as an artist and a citizen?

[–]Bob_Goldthwait
I hope people are inspired by the movie because it's a violent movie about kindness. If people were a little more kind after watching this movie I'd be happy. If you could take rational people and turn then into killers by showing them movies, the military would be in the business of producing movies. If we're going to start banning violent works of fiction because we're afraid of how they may influence people, we should start with the Bible.

>What were some situations/people you would've liked to have included in God Bless America that didn't make it into the movie? (Other people you would've had your protagonist murder)?

[–]Bob_Goldthwait
I regret that we didn't blow up the beach house on Jersey Shore.

>Have you ever really sat and watched an episode of "super sweet 16"?

[–]Bob_Goldthwait
Yes. Unfortunately I wrote this script a few years ago. Now the character Frank would have shot and killed the cast from Teen Mom.

>How do you get funding for your indie movies? Do you put up any of your own, have a stable of rich people throwing money at you, or is it difficult all around?

[–]Bob_Goldthwait
I've made 5 movies so far as a director. The only one that I put my own money into was Sleeping Dogs Lie, aka Stay, when it played at Sundance. We made that movie for 50 grand and got a crew from Craigslist. Darko Pictures has funded my last 2 movies. One of their producers is Ted Hamm, who is one of the heirs of Hamm's Beer - that's why I have a Hamm's Beer tattoo on my chest.

Hamms lol think that used to be $4-6 a case in bottles buds mom used to get it on her payday from slinging bagels in Mercer Mall on RT.1 Princeton.

Jersey Shore?Wtf is that?
This movie is made for celebutard worshippers/haters and TV watchers,I seek no fantasies of revenge on MSM and their hypnotized flock of sheep/emulators since they have been on ignore for 25-30 years.

Cousin It?You getting paid everytime you pimp this thing? smiley

Outstanding interview done by Goldthwait - First we start by banning the bible. The should shut up anybody with common sense.

Its called creeping TEOTWAWKI. Just because it doesn't happen all at once doesn't mean it isn't happening.
