The “Free Guy” Movie lectures people about “Massive” Gun Violence Problem

Oct 17, 2021 | Media Bias

A new Ryan Reynolds movie, Free Guy, has it dig about gun violence in the United States.

Guy (Ryan Reynolds): Milley, how many times a day are the banks robbed in your world?

Molotov Girl (Jodie Comer): Hardly ever, Guy.

Guy: What about corpses, Milley? Do you see a lot of those? How many per hour?

Molotov Girl: None per hour, Guy.

Guy: What about gun violence? See a lot of gun violence in your world?

Molotov Girl: Actually, that is a big problem, Guy. That is a massive problem.

Guy: I didn’t see that coming.

Molotov Girl: It’s true . . .

Given that the whole Free Guy movie is about regular people play acting in a video game as marauding killers with guns, the dialogue clearly implies that the real world outside the game is similar in terms of gun violence. However, there is some inconsistency here between gun violence and no dead bodies in morgues.
