I mostly wanted to find out if "American Sniper" is a movie I should be spending my money on.
I heard that Bradley Cooper wanted it to push gun control, and I have read things which make me worry that Clint Eastwood isn't the RKBA advocate that many think he is. At the same time, I know Chris Kyle's family would be very upset if they dishonored Chris, and I doubt Chris would be happy if a movie about him at all advocated gun control.
If the movie is something Chris Kyle would approve of, then I very much want to see it.
There are a few movies which I know are anti-gun and which most on this site would probably like to avoid for example "Runaway Jury" and "Shoot Em'up" which IMO was a clear swipe at the gun industry.
**EDIT** Due to rampant misunderstanding.
This post IS NOT about avoiding anti-gun actors.
