Hey, in this new push for gun control, isn't there a renewed interest in guns? And if there was an animated movie about guns in the Pixar Cars mold, all this gun control stuff would serve as free publicity for the movie. So there would be huge public awareness, plus a huge built-in fan-base of gun rights people. Plus, all the public outcry and protests would serve as free advertising, like with the old Hershel Gordon Lewis Blood Feast-style movies.
So here's how this movie Guns would work: There is a bunch of different gun characters who don't like each other very much because they're from such different walks of life: There's a camo hunting rifle (with a Ted Nugent accent), a backwoods shotgun (with a Larry the Cable Guy voice), a 9mm automatic with a NYC accent (Lewis Black), a .44 Magnum with a Dirty Harry voice (Clint Eastwood), a small lady's purse gun with a brassy lady voice (Sarah Silverman), a military-style assault rifle with a drill sergeant voice (R. Lee Ermey), etc.; and just because people are being killed all over the country by gun violence, mean crime victims are trying to get new gun control legislation passed that might restrict our heroes. And so this motley crew of misfit guns who don't get along must learn to work together to stop gun control by shooting everyone who supports it. It's fun for the whole family, with the NRA slipping secret contributions to support the guns in their quest, and with Congress ultimately "shooting down" the gun control legislation. And so the guns go and celebrate, getting drunk and shooting up the town, which gets them all banned. The End. A heartwarming and heart-shooting story of a band of misfits working together to triumph and then lose everything. Oh, the pathos! It's Guns, coming to a theater near you!
Plus, for merchandising, all they'd have to do is hot-glue googlie eyes onto real guns and sell them to kids: boys all love guns already anyway! What could possibly go wrong?
