    Strange side story about the movie.
    _Safety Not Guaranteed_ was in theaters at the same time as _The Dark Knight Rises,_ the movie playing during that mass shooting at the Aurora CO, movie theater. People saw _Safety Not Guaranteed_ on the marquee of their local movie theater and thought it was some kind of sick joke in reference to the shooting, so theaters around the country got angry calls and emails. Some theaters even reworded the title or pulled the movie completely.

    • @nikodemasskidzevicius4566
      @nikodemasskidzevicius4566 6 лет назад +20

      The mullet was cut down in its prime.
      All it took was the 90's and a pair of scissors.

      ottav it looks like those photos you can take at tourist traps where you wear old western clothing with props in black and white. It doesn't look like an actual old photo.

    • @glennianheroes1383
      @glennianheroes1383 6 лет назад +4

      Katie Bayliss actually, far as i can tell, it is a authentic framed civil war photo. The clothing, though a tad blurry, seems to be completely period accurate. Not sure what the gun is, its too faded, but the fading and spots make more authenticity. Overall, seems authentic.

    • @katiebayliss9887
      @katiebayliss9887 6 лет назад +4

      GlennianHeroes I'm not an expert, but if I were to take your word for it that doesn't mean its an actual civil war photo. Someone could have gotten their hands on an actual civil war uniform and used it for pictures.

    I did NOT expect to hear my uncle's name in this video, that was shocking. I've heard his music on the radio but somehow hearing his song was used in the mullet man meme makes the fact that he was famous seem much more real to me. He's just a guy so I never thought about that.
