I’m not sure whose rights you are talking about. Not starting a fight. I said actors can get a job, kids can read a book for entertainment or play with themselves, or get a job. What exactly did you mean?
Just because all my movies glorify killing doesnt make ME responsible. Sure Arnie.
This also includes the aggressive modeling in the media of the sexual revolution as desirable, something you seldom see complained about anymore, since the revolutionaries have won so completely few even remember other ideals once existed.
I just watched it. Looks like fun until someone gets Coke in their eye. /sarc
Nothing like a little self serving to temper judgement.
And Hollywood should stop pointing the finger at us.
Is there any reason in the world that I or anyone else should seriously consider anything that this walking penis has to say...on any matter?
Hell no, they’re just entertainers after all...
Just like Rush.
Videos have no influence over us.
Think again. What goes into a person is what comes out of a person.
MARK 7:21-23
He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. 21 For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. 23 All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
ENTERTAINMENT......How could Maria ever stand this bozo???
Like mental ill don’t watch his killing spree on the screen. He ought to go back to his mansion in Austria for good and shut up his wide open mouth!!!
One is “entertainment,” and the other “tragedy beyond belief,” as if the extremeness of the latter excludes its relation to the former. Who makes up this senseless crap for dunces to say? Hollywood hammers away at our culture, our sensibilities, our morality and beliefs, but hides from blame behind the curtain of entertainment. Arnold and his associates are mass murderers, influencing broken minds.
Hollywood numbs the mind just another step in dumbing down process.
Show some respect. Don’t you know how hard it was for Schwollenpecker to run Cullyforneeuh into the ground ?
Even back in the “innocent” days of the 1950’s, movies and TV inspired crazes of Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, Gene Autry, etc., “cap pistols”; toy soldiers and toy army guns were the rage. There wasn’t a big market for these type toys until movies and TV made them “famous”.
This influence grew, and the toy weapons became so realistic that laws had to be passed to put orange tips on the guns to distinguish them from real ones.
The big uptick in karate and other martial arts happened in the 60’s and 70’s with the advent of ninja movies and other karate arts stars.
Hollywood is, and has always been, a catalyst for violence.
The difference is, back in the 50’s parents and church taught young people the difference between fantasy and reality, and that killing and violence were wrong.
But there are plenty of todays movies that incorporate violence just for the sake of violence. Where actor dialogue is simply a bridge from one shooting scene to the next. Where chainsaws and hockey masks define the horror and allow the special effects guys to purchase a lot of stage blood for their part in the sequences.
Schwartzenegger loves to dance a little sidestep, like most politicians. He knows it’s b.s. just like we do.
And, we imitate and model people and behaviors we like or admire and thus want to emulate. It's not mindless. We choose what to do and how and often practice to get it "right".
Advertising works. Social media works. Music works. The one stream media's repetition works.
