Remember "Machete" from "Grindhouse?"

Post by ∞∞∞ »

The official trailer came out on Cinco De Mayo. It's always meant to be a light-hearted movie (in a bloody and destructive way), but people on the internetz think it could actually incite Mexican violence towards white Americans and that it's coming out at the wrong time (which was a coincidence). I think it's a bunch of bull and I'm still watchin' "Machete" regardless, but it's still an interesting question: Can "Machete" actually incite real-life violence? Pay attention to the first line of the trailer:

[youtube][/youtube]

Priest: "You want me to kill all these men."
Machete: "Yes father."
Priest: "I'll see what I can do."
:lol:

"We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us!"
:rofl:

Great lines!

And yes, Jessica Alba is in the movie. :notworthy:

Molly-coddling the illegal alien lobby already disenfranchises law abiding citizens and incites civil war and revolution.
