NUKE Hollywood! Make America Great Again!

[faithhopecharity]

Yours: “NUKE Hollywood”

Mine: We may not have long to wait. LA is on the Iranian IslamoNazi’s Top Targets Hit List for all those nice new shiney nuclear bombs Obama’s made sure they’re getting

A moment to savor.

.....the Center for Responsive Politics reports Clinton pocketed $22 million in contributions from the wealthy/liberal Hollyweird entertainment industry, compared to a mere $290,000 for Trump...

Take a look at the map of what Clinton won....the top 10 populations centers where most of the wealth, commerce and power is located.....and a couple of SW states that have a huge influx of Mexican immigrants.

Hillary lost the bulk of America.

Just goes to prove....the liberal rich talk only amongst themselves and their hired Mexican help.

SANCTUARY CITIES

[Buckeye McFrog]

The Hallmark Channel, with their 89 days of Christmas movies that do not have a blessed thing to do with Christmas, drives me straight up the wall.

[Fai Mao]

Honestly, “It’s a Wonderful Life” is a film I’ve never been able to finish watching. It’s just awful. I don’t understand why it’s considered a classic. Bad theology and bad politics.

That said the deification of Santa Clause that goes on in a lot more recent films is just as bad

[Nifster]

Yeah......about as far out as I get is Mickey Mouse playing Bob Cratchett, or Chip and Dale driving poor Pluto crazy.

I quit watching most Hollyweird fair long ago. I go for reruns....classics from my youth

[faithhopecharity]

in and amongst all sorts of Christmas films....
ranging from the comedic to the profane

you’d think some studio somewhere would make
just one Christmas film that’s decent for family viewing!?

if only because there’s a big market for it!?

[ealgeone]

And the left had faux outrage over Trump’s comments. His words are a mirror of hollywierd.

[discostu]

Remember It’s A Wonderful Life tanked miserably at the box office. It only became a “Christmas classic” because somebody forgot to renew the copyright and it became available to TV for cheap.

Guy shouldn’t make stuff up. That whole paragraph that starts with the kid making a donation didn’t happen in Bad Santa, there is no Mrs Santa, there’s Mrs Santa’s Sister but that’s different entirely. And the rest that paragraph is also not in the movie. The writer has a pretty vivid imagination.

And finally keep in mind, not everybody likes the holidays. They lack family, they lack nice family, or they just hate all the saccharine entertainment that infects this time of year. My Christmas movie list is almost entirely made of up “anti” Christmas movies. From Die Hard, through Gremlins, Trading Spaces, with a stop over at Rare Imports and landing on Christmas with the Dead. And yeah I love Bad Santa (I’ve got a weak spot for any Christmas movie that lacks snow, because I live in the sunbelt they speak to me) and we’re going to see Bad Santa 2 on Thanksgiving Day.

Meanwhile there’s still more sappy happy Christmas movies to go around. Just check the Halmark network they show a ton of them, not all because there’s just not that much time, but many.

[AppyPappy]

You can’t go wrong with any of the “Christmas Carols”.

[cherry]

okay, I think the Hallmark movies are okay, but not great...they're entertaining...they're mostly about romance...

however, at least they don't offend me...

one move I like which has some Christmas in it is "The Note"....its a chick film no doubt....but really good, and better than most...

[discostu]

The only version of that I didn’t hate (understanding that I generally avoid it) is the one with George C Scott. It’s an irritatingly sappy story, and most versions crank up the sap even higher.

[Deo volente]

Seven minutes from the best Christmas film of all. It’s a British film, made in 1951. Dickens’ “Christmas Carol”.

As an old Regular Army enlistee, I’ve been partial to White Christmas for decades.

“We’ll follow the Old Man, wherever he wants to......”

[reed13k]

If you haven’t seen the end then you haven’t seen where the entire community comes out and GIVES out of LOVE to help one of their own. It’s about recognizing the joy of life with the good and the bad.

The best scene in my mind is when he comes back and recognizes the blood on his face and yells something like “Ain’t that great! Hallealujah!”

The only thing I don’t like about the movie is that Potter doesn’t get his in the end.

[PlateOfShrimp]

I saw a disgusting Christmas movie once. It opened to a single mom coming home, only to find that her daughter, who attended a “progressive school,” had wandered, unsupervised, into an apartment occupied by an unmarried adult male, and even worse, he was smoking a pipe!

I agree with you about “It's a Wonderful Life”, like oatmeal without raisins or brown sugar. My favorite is “We're No Angels” with Humphrey Bogart, Peter Ustinov and Aldo Ray.
