The Interview actor, writer and producer Seth Rogen has made another attempt at explaining what he meant when he said in a recent polarizing tweet that American Sniper reminded him of a scene in Inglourious Basterds.
Rogen posted a message last week, saying, "American Sniper kind of reminds me of the movie that's showing in the third act of Inglorious Basterds."
As the tweet sparked a media firestorm, Rogen made several attempts to clarify his remarks on Twitter before he ultimately posted a screenshot of a longer explanation Thursday.
"I didn't compare the two at all. I merely said that one kind of reminded me of the other, because they both involved plots about the most lethal of snipers," Rogen wrote. "People then claimed that I compared the movie American Sniper to Nazi propaganda, something I would NEVER do, (I've already publicly explained that I enjoyed American Sniper) and also implied that I somehow have something against Chris Kyle and veterans in general, neither of which are true in the least."
