TenementFunster posted:what would a move about vehicular terrorism look like, anyway? a fast and furious movie where all the pedestrians weren't magically lucky or nonexistent. literally the exact same movie, except there's dog fur in the grill and a body stuck under the car during the sick drift scenes. no dialogue is changed, because pedestrians don't count as people.

Well, there was that documentary Tread about the guy who made himself a killdozer.

TenementFunster posted:in real life, guns are the tool that hosed-up killers obsess over and use to kill people. mass bowings simply don't happen and made zero sense for a movie set in our present day. Do I need to figure out a hypothetical scenario where a crazy teen reenacts Nice but only on other students in order to satisfy your Realism requirements

TenementFunster posted:no, because the actual scenario occurs in this country with such shocking frequency that it should be obvious even to you! Ah yes, movies about school shootings should instead be about suicides or gang shootings since those are more common. Also I would think USA has 300 times the homicide rate of Scotland. What are they up to up there, drowning people in bogs???

TenementFunster posted:what is a "gang shooting"? how common are they? "Shootings where they got ready at home" vs "shootings where they wigged out and already happened to have a gun on them" is maybe a more useful distinction. Maybe

TenementFunster posted:what is a "gang shooting"? how common are they? At least in Philly this is an actual problem affecting black communities, these gangs are usually pretty small and cycles of revenge and social media beefs lead to back and forth shootings, sometimes in more public places. Kids killing each other and whatnot. It's hosed. Not the typical "gang violence" most people imagine. Police make a stink when this affects white people ofc but that's about it

Gang shooter = Shooting done for gang reasons and targeted at certain people, if inaccurately. Mass shooter = High score attempt.

mass shootings are also targeted often like the mushroom farm dude gang shootings also kill random bystanders all the time. the difference is the media separates them into "white people be scared now" and "white people be racist now" columns
