From the article:
The 76-year-old Oscar-nominated director said violent action films with big explosions - usually targeted at young men - amount to training films for such bold attacks..."I just believe we created this atmosphere and taught them how to do it," he said.
I've felt for the longest time that blockbuster action movies get the amount of funding and promotion that they do precisely because they subconsciously desensitize their targeted market and acclimate them to the sort of violent situations they would come across in war.
A fun and easy way to prep cannon fodder! |
