“I think the NRA is a disaster area.”Translation: I'm going to piss off millions of gun owners w/ lies, stereotypes, and insults resulting in millions more spent of firearms just to spite me.
Mr. (Harvey)Weinstein then revealed his secret project. “I shouldn’t say this but I’ll tell it to you, Howard,” he said. “I’m going to make a movie with Meryl Streep, and we’re going to take this head on. And they’re going to wish they weren’t alive after I’m done with them.”
Does that sound about right?

Meryl Streep??!?!! Was she famous once? Maybe Michael Moore can give him some pointers.
So we're going to be suicidal after viewing one of his movies?
How will this be different than the others?
Aww, man! You mean demand for guns/ammo will increase and drive prices up AGAIN?!
Some of us have a budget to live within!
I was listening to his interview when he launched into the tirade. And I was thinking, this sounds familiar. . . . .
ANd then it dawned on me. It was familiar. The same thing was said, back in 2003 when they were trying to get the Assault weapons ban reinstated. Only that time, it was going to be a surefire strategy, cause they had an all star case - John Cusack, Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman and the sexy as hell Rachel Weisz - all packaged together in a John Grisham movie - The Runaway Jury.
Know what happened? Well, first they changed the plot of the fantastic story from Tobacco to Firearms. And after spending $60 million to make it, they grossed only $50 million in the US. It did another $30 million overseas - but basically it was a bomb.
So,I say bring it on.
