I agree with you 100%.
Yep.
I was just talking with friends about how the 1932 Tarzan movie would cause the Liberals to have chest-grabbers
Especially the scenes with the violent dwarf tribe, all in blackface
Was also laughing last night at High Sierra. Bogart could bitch slap like nobody’s business
Like, when he plays the Black evangelical faith healer...
“Reverend, can you heal our water head baby?”
“Get that thing away from me. That sh*** contagious!”
In Communist Red China, Communist Cambodia, and Communist California the answer is destroy the past.
Orwell was right about the Stalinists’ use of revisionist history.
>>Apu’s accent in “The Simpsons,”
Commies never complain about Groundkeeper Willie’s Scottish accent and stereotypical attire.
Oh God.
LOVE old movies, so much more moral.
Will have to start buying up everything before they ban everything and Turner Classic is reduced to playing Jim Carrey as “classic”.
I say, "F*ck 'em if they can't take a joke."
I'm not politically correct because for one, I'm not a politician and two, I'm seldom correct.
But wait. “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” was a documentary, wasn’t it? ;)
SJWs and snowflakes can go bugger themselves.
Too many damned sociology degrees have cause the political climate to become too warm.
“Which is why I cling to my DVDs”
Same here. I have a huge DVD collection, and CDs too. I wanted to lend a DVD to my daughter (age 24) but she didn’t even have a DVD player. Stars like Cary Grant, Bing Crosby, Gene Kelly, Lana Turner are unknown to her. She might have heard of Judy Garland and Liz Taylor.
Old movies are a really great way to see how people lived. Movies made in the 40s of the early 20th century (or movies made depicting one generation before) are interesting and accurate because many of people making them actually lived through those times.
People had guns, they smoked cigarettes, men wore suits and women wore dresses.
>>an unusual case because the show has spanned more than two generations of evolving attitudes.
“evolving attitudes” = indoctrinated mushheads
ROFL, indeed!
By the way, PLEASE DO NOTE, EVERYONE, that this retroactive punishment for enjoying anything that isn’t approved of today ONLY APPLIES TO WHITE PEOPLE.
Chris Brown is still selling tunes and making $. No one cares that he once severely damaged his dashboard by smashing rhianna’s head into it repeatedly.
>>This is also a different question than what’s being grappled with around entertainers like Bill Cosby, Louis C.K. and Woody Allen, whose work many now reject because of the artists’ behavior rather than the content itself (though many have identified problems in Allen’s and C.K.’s work).
How queer, focus some attention on the behavior of Dead Red Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, and Robert KKK Byrd.
Half of Gone with the Wind is after the war
And Mammy stayed with the family after the war when she was no longer a slave
So simple question?
How many slaves, after the war, when they were no longer slaves, continued to stay on with their former masters?
Zas employees or part of the family or some other capacity?
There should be historical record of that
Mammy was a great character, a tough nut who didn’t take any garbage.
And Rhett highly prized her approval.
We’ve been watching a lot of ‘80s movies lately. Escape from New York. Die Hard. Lethal Weapon. Couldn’t make them these days.
