Hollywood is well known for it's communist ties. They're just dictating louder than usual.
To: jonalvy44
Is it possible that Hollywood is learning an important lesson? Is it possible that we might be treated to more pro-USA movies in the future No on both counts!
As long as people go to the movies and buy recordings they will not change thye have no need to they don't care about what is going on in the world, it's not their world, they don't live in the same world that we live in..

If I want to see a movie, I know it will eventually be on TV. Rather than dishing out the cash to these commies, I wait.
(Except for the new Mel Gibson film about Christ. I'll pay for that one).
When it comes to listening to music - I use the radio. It's free.

yes, hollywood has left america and they are harming our military with their hate filled comments and meetings regarding President Bush. I have decided to NEVER watch any of the KNOWN protestors and NEVER to purchase any of the KNOWN hate american's c.d.'s. I am thankful for cable and thankful that we do have a choice as to who to listen to and who to watch. Hollywood is a messed up over paid over heard, over rated group of ANTI-AMERICANS. They hate that term but that is just what they are. They are trying to turn our military into a bunch of cry babies who need their mom to come check on them. Shame Shame on the LEFT! You guys are leading our country to the swamp. Your futrue messed up kids will pay the price.

I voted for Saddam and all I got was this bloody T-Shirt!
Ask not what you can do for your country - ask what you can do for Iraq!
Same face - different war. HOLLYWOOD IS FOR IRAQ - AND ANTI AMERICAN
"Bush is a racist"--Danny Glover
"I think America has no experience with terrorism or even with war. In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things." --Peter Gabriel
"As dumb as this administration is, they don't look ahead. They don't know where any countries are...They don't really know much about anything."
"Now you have people [in Washington] who have no interest in the country at all. They're interested in their companies, their corporations grabbing Caspian oil."-- Gore Vidal
In my country the atmosphere is poisoned. Unbreathable for those of us who are not on the right. So thank you for inviting me to this festival and allowing me to leave there for a few days. -- Jessica Lange
"So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.'"
"'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride." -- Janeanne Garofalo
"I believe he thinks this [war against Iraq] is a war that can be won, but there is no such thing anymore...We can't beat anyone anymore" -- George Clooney
"[Bush is a] sad figure: not too well educated, who doesn't get out of America much. He's leading the country towards fascism... he wouldn't understand the word fascism anyway." --Larry Hagman
"It is inappropriate for the [Bush] administration to trump up a case in which we are ballyhooed into war."
But, a few years earlier:
"...the bottom line is that I think its appropriate for the international community in situations like this to intervene [in Kosovo]. I am in favor of an intervention. On some level you have to say that at least somebody [Clinton] is doing something." -- Mike Farrell

I would suggest seeing as few movies per year as possible. No worries about supporting immorality or lack of patriotism this way. I admit that I still see three a year or so, but choose carefully.

None of it is free. If you purchase any product advertised during said movie (on network television) you are paying for it. If you purchase any product advertised on the radio, you are paying for it. Free my a$$.

If David Horowitz had been a Republican and he 'saw the light' of Marxism; his conversion story would be a movie by now.
As it is, Radical Son will never see celluloid.
But I am wondering why there is not more money available; more iniative for movies that serve the truth of America, rather than just the propaganda of the Left.

I know they sing about toilet paper, though.

Hollywood in general has no-one to blame but themselves.
All we get are self-serving "elites" who believe their acting abilities (or lack thereof) and fame translates into cogent analysis of foreign policy, the environment, social issues and anything else for that matter. They perform a very useful service when I don't have time to research a given issue - if the nutcases in Beverly Hills are for something, you can bet I'm against it. They unerringly choose the wrong side of a given issue, in general.
Movies and television have for decades portrayed honest, hardworking rural folks as hicks and dweebs - esp. those whose value systems revolve around family and religion. Considering the large number of cocksuckers in hollywood, this probably shouldn't be surprising. But that doesn't mean we need to support them with our dollars. I don't.
At least the old hollywood moguls knew what the deal was, the heirs apparent don't have the benefit of their class and intelligence. Once cocaine hit hollywood in a big way, all the movies went to hell pretty much.
