They seem to be the norm now, are they a reflection of parts of our society OR are they steering us towards accepting this as the norm .? Does this brainwash a generation of young people into carrying weapons as acceptable & par for the course?
It’s the same old question , do TV & films reflect reality or do we emulate what we see & watch?

Violence for entertainment bores me however the violent scenes on Les Miserables last night were well done and credible because of the obvious human and moral interest , unlike in many battle scenes in film plays.

I thought I would watch to see if Luther was worth watching. It was totally uneccesarily
violent.

What do people get out of watching a violent fight? I suspect a lot of people must enjoy it.

What is wrong with these people?
It is perfectly possible in a drama to make it obvious that someone has been assaulted.
Now get on with the story if there is any sensible story in the whole drama.

I thought I would watch Luther to see what it was. I was appalled by the unecessary violence. That is now right off my watch list.
