The star of Bless This Mess and his real wife are a couple of dopes.

On their first return album, they had the line “that right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint.” When we went to see the Dan, these tailgaters had a sign that said “Right-wing hooey-free zone.” As we walked through, my friend said, “Not right now, it’s not!” Fortunately, the show never got political.

I’m with you...

I went to see “Wonder Woman” on a lark at a vacation spot.

The only thing I remember is the Israeli could fight all right, but Wonder Woman is American, so the lack of patriotism showed. I was disgusted.

And that was a couple of years ago now.

Hwood sells to international audiences now. Good luck with that.

Will Smith as James West was absurdly embarassing, and a harbinger of PeeCee propaganda to follow.

Haha....surprised you made it through that far....

That was Fawcett. DC sued for property theft of their Superman and won.

The Marvel male was Kree Mar-Vell, in 1967. Carol Danvers dates from 1968, and became essentially a female Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, in 1977, after which Mar-Vell died - that was over 40 years ago. This was not a modern contrivance. (Stan Lee was always a leftist, and he and his pals named her after Ms. Magazine.)

The worst problem with the movie was turning the evil invading Skrulls into sympathetic illegal aliens just wanting a home but being persecuted by the nasty white male Kree.

“if you want to send a message use western union”

Yep, my friend told me that quote years ago and I just said it back to her yesterday. I call it the sound of a soapbox being dragged into the action.

“A Star is Born”

Well that was the 4th remake of that story, and I really liked it A LOT. I would recommend it highly. It is a sad story but very well done. And respectful of the audience. One full frontal nude shot of Lady Gaga that is NOT sexy, otherwise pretty clean.

PS to my own post to say: the songs are very good. It’s Willie Nelson’s son in the band in the movie and he and Gaga did the songs. It’s really a great Hollywood movie.

“Why do that? Why?”

Because Social Justice Warriors and their virtue signalling collaborators encourage it.

Sequels, prequels.......what you do when you’re out of ideas.

Remakes are even worse. The only decent remake I can think of was Airplane. It was even better than the original Zero Hour.

they make movies directly showing Black people being constantly superior to White people. "Black Panther" was a good example of this.

Why do that? Why?

To please their audience.

Movie audiences today are mostly black.

It can’t just be a black female lead. It has to be a black, transgender, female lead.
