I agree entirely. I personally boycott those films for that reason (along with The Godfather series, which, to me, glorifies murderous criminality).

A personal choice: I do not begrudge others enjoying Clint Eastwood in them.

I also avoid Once Upon a Time in the West. The western genre was generally subverted by Commiewood by the end of the 60s. Silverado, for me, was a surprising pleasure, given that personal honor is a key theme.

“The western genre was generally subverted by Commiewood by the end of the 60s.”

Thank you so much for that statment. That’s my belief also, and one reason I haven’t been to a movie theater in almost 35 years. You can count the movies I’ve seen since the 1970s on both hands and have a few fingers left over.

God do I evermore HATE Hollywood!
