Velvet Acid Christ Johnny Got His Gun

[1techo3]

This story is really sad when a man is just left as a stump and no way to communicate or a way to feed himself

[TheSlipknotdude69]

yeah cuz nobody has ever used this footage in a music video before *cough* metallica *cough *

[AngelJuliet]

I hate this book but love it for the same reasons. Just so rivid.

[lazerzeplien]

Does she give him a handjob?

[AngelJuliet]

I believe she is just rubbing his upper body.

[balancedesign2010]

@AngelJuliet she's writing 'merry christmas' on his chest

[AngelJuliet]

yea I realized that after I read the book

[balancedesign2010]

@lazerzeplien yes.

[MrMellon21]

does he die in the end?

[halofan97]

@MrMellon21 after reading the book no.

[balancedesign2010]

@MrMellon21 no. they leave him in there until, well you can assume he dies of old age at some point but we never see his death in the film

[MrGrimmGoretastic]

this was a better book then movie. this movie is rare and i heard once u find it its not worth the trouble, but the book is

[YoshitsuneBenkai]

i think the music goes partially well with the video.. i havent watchet the whole movie tough..

[raivonraj]

...they missed the "punch line ",in this video. In the end of the originalmovie he "knocked" his head on the pillow, the Morchecode "kill me, kill me, and a officer who visit the hospital 1921, rocoqnised the signals, that,s the punchline of this antiwar movie.

[halofan97]

@raivonraj morse code not morche

[DarkLabProductions]

i dont like this... the music does not go with this video

[ThisEarth]

No one is forcing you to watch it.

[daemonaeon]

@ThisEarth But you ahve to accept critics, dude, otherwise make it a private video.

[ThisEarth]

true that.

[MichaelKing]

@ThisEarth

Absolutely not. Like you said, no one is forcing these people to watch this video. I say, if you want to keep the video up, and you like it, do it. Fuck what these nerds are telling you. What the hell is wrong with people these days?

[TheAtomic1234321]

@ThisEarth Whats the movie about?

[AngelJuliet]

the book Johnny got his gun by Dalton Trumbo

[balancedesign2010]

@TheAtomic1234321 a man who loses his face (including hearing and voice) and limbs in war and begs the doctors to kill him but they won't so he stays a 'piece of meat that keeps on living'.

[cueball0791]

correction: the guy was paralised but the doctors thought he were comatised for 23 years

[117ReApEr324]

did this really happen?

what war was this?

[herrkaput]

WW1..Anti war book called"Johny got his gun" Made in to a film in 1971 same title

[cueball0791]

very similar situation happened to someone who fought in WW1. Sorry, forgot his name. He lost all 4 limbs, front face (incl. sight, smell, speech). Apparently the poor guy was in a coma for 23 years; but was cognitive enough to "scream for help". Unfortunately, nobody could hear him scream vocally! :-( please let me know if one can undergo more extreme suffering

[Yugoslaviarock]

shit, no way!!! this is from metallicas spot called one

[ThisEarth]

It is the same movie yeah. But I hadn't seen the One video so it had nothing to do with that. Infact One is about this movie, if you pay attention to the lyrics (which I never do) =)

[winfieldskateteam]

what was the nurse doing? i havent seen the movie yet

[12rossja]

great editing, i cant seem to find the actual video of johnny got his gun :/

[SectorSos]

Great work. Congrats !

Great song, great editting. Definatly going into my "favorites"

[angusnumber19]

what is going about this film?

[motiongraphics81]

Isn't this song called 'Pretty Toy'?

[ThisEarth]

Yes it is =)

[MathewLerandeau]

I'm sorry I insulted your work but I thought you were making fun of the movie Johnny got his gum

[thecaster]

How could this possibly make fun of the movie? Just because something is recut and modified does not mean it is a disrespect to a previous artist.

[MathewLerandeau]

Why are you posting video that makes fun of a true story?

[ThisEarth]

hey, I think you somehow missunderstood the whole point of the video. it's just a movie presentation with background music. and this video in no way makes fun of the movie or the story it is based upon. I take that as an insult to my work. which I spent many many hours compiling.

[violentgamingfetish]

loved it ^^ thnx for upload

[skanetrafiken]

Nice one mate.. this one gets on 2nd place on my top 3 vid that you have made..

Peace <3
