1. 7/14 titles include guns. I guess Hollywood has idolized guns for a long time. It seems that it's a recent phenomenon bu

The earlier gun movies centered around westerns and gunslingers. The more modern ones tend to include more modern and ever more lethal weaponry. I don’t think that leads to gun violence though. That idea follows the same route as video games leading to violence and I don’t think that’s shown to be true. Easy access to guns is the number one factor I think.
