Netflix and Prime prompt me to ‘Continue Watching’.
My wife knows that blue line they show is when they introduced some homos.

"Anybody older still into comic "superheroes" are suspect to me."

My best friend and I see a lot of movies together, and some happen to be Marvel superheroes. We do not buy the comics or trade action figures. We like Fast and Furious and war movies as well or better than Marvel heroes. Are we suspect to you?

Superman, Spider Man, Batman...

Sorry but I associate those characters with pre-puberty boys. Maybe you enjoy them as an adult, and you probably play video games as well, but most of the rest of us grew up.

all scientists are black males, all heroes are white women, all morons or criminals are white men, anyone super rich is a black woman, and couples are now always black woman white man that used to be all white women black men which was early 2000’s woke trend.

Basically most movies are pushing the opposite of real life and they fail because of it.

OH! and I forgot that any public display of affection is nearly always between loving gays in a perfect relationship!

I haven’t been to the movies in at least a decade. I have no interest in watching leftist pieces of schiff. I don’t like women in lead roles and I have zero interest in watching minority degenerates. Their loss, not mine.

Glad to see I’m not the only one who watches Perry Mason sometimes. And there is this note on a thread about manliness, concerning the actor who played Paul Drake:

“Hopper served with the United States Navy during World War II, as a volunteer with the Office of Strategic Services and as a member of the newly created Underwater Demolition Team. He received a Bronze Star and several other medals during operations in the Pacific.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Hopper

A heavy smoker, he died at 55.

Just caught a comment in the Drinker’s monologue: the writers lack the life experience to write believable masculine characters. That’s profound: the characters are pusillanimous pansies because THE WRITERS are pusillanimous pansies.

“Top Gun: Maverick”

Yes.

1) As a movie it was actually good, and far better than I had feared it would be.

2) The last thing I did with my Dad was get him out of the house to see that film. He really enjoyed it, and we had a fine time together. A week later, we buried him. RIP. It will always be a good reminder of a good man.

Wow. What a way to go. With a smile on his face.

I like going to good movies but I hardly ever go because they’re not very good.

Last summer I went and saw “Top Gun: Maverick” FIVE times. Loved every minute of it.

Hail the Drinker! Sláinte! Here comes Mr. (Will) Jordan with yet another spot-on take. The cinematic male emasculation I hope has reached its nadir. Hollywood losing nearly half of its theatre audience due to woke/intersectional feminist tripe and hemorrhaging money is enough momentum to swing the pendulum in the opposite direction. I look forward to the return of red-blooded, kick-ass, rugged individualistic with relish — and vengeance.

I built a web site JUST for this purpose:

https://www.notwokeshows.com

It’s a collection of TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Vidcasts and Stand Up Comedians that have been pre-screened to be not woke. Each listing in the database has summaries, previews, links to stream, personal comments (and the newer items include reviews)

We saw TG:M on a Saturday ... I got “the dreaded phone call” the following Friday ...

I’ve almost given up on movies ... I don’t even know what’s showing right now. Hmmm ...

< check Fandango >

Hmmmm ... “Plane” might not be too horrible ... Everything else looks like utter dreck.

A gay couple beats all of them.

A Trans Couple would dominate the field.

A black trans gay couple would simply become pure energy, transcending the human form.

He’s funny and all but when he holds the bottle of Jack Daniels up to take a drink he should unscrew the cap at least.

It struck me as a remake of the original Star Wars.

Yep. Like how in the recent Star Wars movies the relationships between the characters were ruined, divorce, etc. This is because the writers and directors are amoral hacks who can’t hold a relationship together themselves. And can’t stand the thought of anyone else doing so.

Growing Up is a precursor to Growing Old. You go ahead, I’ll keep watching super hero movies and wearing Batman t shirts to work every day.
