Inasmuch as “G-rated” movies generally make $$$$$$$$$$$$$ & “preachy” SJW movies often lose money (or make little profit), you would think that the bean-counters in Holly-WEIRD would eventually get the message.

IMO, what they have in surplus is SELF-IMPORTANCE, unspeakable ARROGANCE & HUBRIS.

G is great bit i”m not 6 and this isnt 1940 :)

The other ratings have their places and can make a fortune also.

The exorcist was an R all the way, yet even with some horrific scenes that were very offensive, it drove folks back to church by the bushels.

Go figure :)

I do like to see G or PG with mu niece.

If Toy Storu shows were G, then I see them alone too :)

I wonder what rating All About Eve and Mildred Pierce recieved.

Loved those 2.

And yet I am straight:)

The counsel of Hollywood is lust of the eyes and pride of life. There is reference to their ilk in Psalm 1:1. Of course, they are invited to REPENT!

I read an article some years ago comparing the box-office take between high budget action movies and family movies. Action movies rely on “action” while family movies rely on plot, story, emotional investment by the audience. The family movies, on average, made significantly more money than the action movies. Yet Hollywood preferred to make big budget, higher risk action movies over family fare. I suspect that was because of ego. An actor would rather be James Bond (the male) than Citizen Kane.

People who understand the anti-American Zeitgeist that exists in that sh*thole called Hollywood, and yet spend their hard-earned money at movie theaters need to wake the hell up.

Its my understanding that the money is now made in the foreign markets, the domestic market not so much.
