Whats funny is Hollywood will lament slow box office sales later this year, but not make any connection to the bad movies they keep churning out...nor will they realize the insertion of their own politics, and PC, are the root cause.

If past is prologue to the future, Hollywood may come out with Evan Almighty II next year. They just seem to remake everything.

I didn't see the movie. It looked like a stinker -- and choosing Morgan Freeman as God just seemed so uninspired and politically correct. Spare me such pap.

From this review:

Then there was the show-stopper: when, as the credits rolled, "Noah" held up a replica of the Ten Commandments, then turned it around to reveal an 11th Commandment, "Thou Shalt Do The Dance."

Isn't that like the Child's joke/riddle: "How many of each animal did Moses take on the ark?"

Let's try to keep our patriarchs straight, people!

No kidding. We dropped all our premium movie channels from our Dish Network package awhile ago. We got really tired of so many decades-old movies on the premium channels, and when there WAS a current movie, it was either really bad, propaganda, or both. We figure we can rent a good one if one is ever produced again.

Actually, I think this year is going to be a record for Hollyweird: Pirates of the Caribbean 3, Spiderman 3, Harry Potter, etc.

If they didn’t make record profits this year, they’re doomed.

Well, let’s face it - the Hollywood types are just inches away from being communists. How in the world can we expect them to understand supply and demand?

Want to make money? Satisfy a demand. Nobody is demanding crummy movies, and they can’t figure that out.
