Please stop supporting and glorifying Hollywood and the ideals it espouses.

Thank you.

Please stop telling me what to do and ascribing motives to me which I do not happen to have. You are not omniscient.

If, after a very trying day, I seek a bit of escape in the movie theater, that's my business. By no means do I advocate any immoral lifestyles being followed, by Hollywood inhabitants or anyone else. By your logic, no one would read novels to seek a temporary escape from the mundane any more either.

MYOB. Are we clear on that? Good.

People have to come up for air. If we all look at the lives we lead, the items we own and the things we do, especially for entertainment, there's no doubt that we feed the monster in some way.

The movie was really good. Nice to see Bond's original sporty car make a cameo appearance.

Not sure why FReepers are jumping down your throat for making a polite, rational and well-intentioned request.

Hoyyweird is called that for good reason...and the people who run it are no friends of God or the United States.

Skyfall was made in England by British studios.
"Filming began in November 2011, and primarily took place in the United Kingdom, China and Turkey."
While ...
"Skyfall (2012) is the twenty-third spy film in the James Bond series, produced by Eon Productions and distributed by MGM and Sony Pictures Entertainment." Other than distribution thru offices of MGM and Sony Pics & Entertainment groups, "Hollywood" has scant to do with the film.

I would suggest your angst is, in this case, a bit mis-directed.

It’s a British movie nothing to do with Hollywood.
