8. Southerners Are Racist, Evil, Backward Hillbillies
Hollywood has gone all the way from the friendly Sergeant York and Mayberry RFD to Deliverance, or whatever the latest Oscar bait about slavery that’s “relevant to what’s going on now” happens to be. It’s pretty ironic: People who lecture us about tolerance and ignorance hate a quarter of the country so much they can’t stand to be around them, or bother to learn that the stereotypes are false.
(SNIP)
9. Big Business Is the Bad Guy
Weyland-Yutani Corporation from Aliens. Umbrella Corporation from Resident Evil. Stoneheart Investment Group from The Strain. You can go on and on with these examples of EVIL corporations. But, does it make any sense? Their business plan seems to be:
Step 1: Overrun planet with uncontrollable Slimy acid monsters / Zombies / Vombies
Step 2: ?
Step 3: Profit!
There are evil people in business just like there are everywhere else. But maybe it’s not a good idea to push the idea that people in suits would probably kill you to make $5 more.
10. Christians Are Either Evil or Stuffy Idiots
Maybe it was edgy to portray a “devout” Christian as the bad guy 50 years ago, but evil, intolerant, judgmental, and annoying Christians who get their comeuppance are now Hollywood staples.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, statistics show that Christians do the majority of charity work and volunteering, are friendly and happy, and do small acts of kindness everyday. How about showing a Christian helping someone? Instead of, you know, a Christian teenage girl being a polly prissypants, or a Christian father scowling at the gay guy?
11. Dating Is Bizarre
In the movies, women date the world’s biggest assholes, fall for guys after they turn out to be super spies who save their lives a half-dozen times, become enamored with men they hate, fall for men who were stalking them, or fall for men for no reason other than moving the plot along. The more you learn about dating from Hollywood, the better chance you have of spending your life alone.

Thank you for posting all 12 points without making us click through an ad heavy slideshow.
How about “Homosexuality and its various other abbreviations are a normal way of life. If you think otherwise, you are a hater.”
If you are harvey weinstein and you’re not having sex right now, look out potted plants.
The messages are embedded in all they produce. They do not entertain. They produce propaganda. They then figure out how to capture the viewer’s attention and get him interested in the story. While the viewer has relaxed his critical thinking, (the willing suspension of disbelief) they slip the message in.
Movies are escapist fantasy.
Hawkins is either watching the wrong stuff, or he’s just trying to agitate...thanks for posting enough so I don’t have to read the rest of this claptrap.
Also:
90 pound women can beat up trained, muscular men.
The killer is always a white man.
25% of people are gay.
On again off again relationships always lead to happily ever after.
There’s a YouTube channel called ‘CinemaSins’; the videos have titles like, ‘Everything Wrong With Twister’, ‘Everything Wrong With Armageddon’, ‘Everything Wrong With Contact’ - it’s funny; but a little crude, and sort of ruins your movie experience:

13. There is no higher authority than your own feelings. “Search your feelings, Luke” is probably the most poisonous line of dialog I have ever heard. Why? Wouldn’t Luke just find “truth” being any selfish desire he wanted in the first place? Doesn’t Darth Vader do the same?
RE: “Search your feelings, Luke”
Actually, Obi Wan Kenobi’s directive is “Use the Force” ( Turn off your computer) whatever that means.
PJ Media is the biggest click whore in the conservative blogosphere. I never go past their first page and seldom go there at all because of it.
13. You can bust a beer bottle over some guy’s head as easily as busting a light bulb.
14. You can bust a guy in the chops and not hurt your hand as much as you hurt his jaw.
15. Getting shot in the shoulder doesn’t disable you.
16. Every hero is reluctant.
17. Acting tough is the same as being tough.
18. It’s not about the money.
19. Bikers are braind-dead Blue Ribbon drinking thugs.
20. A guy with a pistol can gun down a sniper 50 yards away, but an army of snipers shooting from bench rests can’t hit a single guy crouched behind a fruit crate.
21. A car door is adequate protection from small arms fire.
22. Windshields shatter into razor-like shards.
23. When your car goes into the lake, the water looks like a swimming pool.
24. Tires screech on gravel roads.
25. Terrorists are anybody but muslimes.
He should have said, “Use R2-D2. Since the robot can fly the fighter, just tell him where the small vulnerable spot is and stay safely back on the base. As a robot R2 is probably more accurate than you are anyway.”
The Cops arrive AFTER the fight is over and the bad guy is either killed or defeated.
People stop screaming and crying/moanig really quicky after getting shot or knifed without painkillers, and can go on to defeat the bad guy(s) a few minutes later.
There is no doubt that the moral decay of Hollywood and the moral decay of society in general correlate. For years they have depicted men having sex with children, woman having sex with children, children having sex with children, murder and violence to the most extreme and depravity on a level beyond anything else in known history.
They are morally and politically bankrupt. Their opinions... Without merit.
“20. A guy with a pistol can gun down a sniper 50 yards away, but an army of snipers shooting from bench rests can’t hit a single guy crouched behind a fruit crate.”
Sounds like you have been watching “The Walking Dead”.
They are amazing at head shots from moving vehicles.
WBill Jr's karate instructor is a woman. She has the best balance of any human being that I've ever met, and I'd not want to get on the wrong side of her.
That being said, she and I have talked about this very thing. She said that, in sparring against other men, blows that would cripple her usually bounce off them. The difference in muscle mass and size is not "just a little bit", it's catastrophic. She said that "Typically, she doesn't stand a chance" - her words, not mine.
This is between two people who know what they're doing. I'd likely not stand a chance against her, myself. :-) But, it kills Hollywood's ideals, pretty much instantly.
