So what was the last movie you went to see?

Mine was the passion of Christ, before that it was the Titanic, and only because my wife forced me to take her.

By the way, I have not watched any other football games other than my Vikings since kaepernick began taking a knee.

Nobody called for a boycott of "movies", so the question is irrelevant. If you wanted to cite something similar to the NFL boycott, numerous conservatives HAVE called for a boycott of the OSCARS, so I will be happy to tell you the last time I watched that. When black activists were whining that the Oscars were "too white" in 2015 and promising to boycott the ceremony, I watched the show to give the middle finger to them. I didn't care for it, and haven't watched since then.

Of course, if movie buffs were to behave like football fans during the NFL "boycott", we could loudly announce on social media that we were "done" with the Oscars and "don't care" about them anymore, then eagerly post minute-by-minute updates on social media about out favorite movies winning Oscars the next week (and diss the movies that didn't win), but claim we're still boycotting the show because we "didn't watch" the parts of the show that focused on movies we'd never watch anyway.

So in other words, you're "boycotting" by watching your favorite team from your hometown like you always have, but NOT watching other teams from cities nowhere near you that you dislike, have no vested interest in, and never cared for in the first place?

Wow, how impressive. Maybe lifelong Ford owners can "boycott" the automobile industry next by continuing to buy the brand they've always owned, and NOT buying Yugos, Fiats, Rimacs, Škodas, Revozs, Mastrettas, Dacias, Tofaş, Mobius Motors, and Kantanka cars.
