"Go Kerry yourselves." LOL...although real Irishmen by the name of "Kerry" and my relatives in Kerry, Ireland might take offense.

If Mel gets blacklisted, I say he should just say "Screw you Hollywood Idiots!" He then could go about making more of religious oriented movies without the Hollywood censors, and continue to make a lot of money and just keep up the process. Mel has proved you don't need the leftist idiots to be a success in the movie making business.

At one time, Hollywood gave us Biblical epics that inspired us and didn't belittle us, and had a "galaxy full of stars" that while they wern't angels, at least didn't flaunt their sins and pretend they were qualified to tell us rubes out here in the Midwest what jerks we were. Frank Capra made a bunch of money. Maybe we are wising up and stepping away from the trough. Maybe Hollywierd will notice when the money dries up.

THis has all to do with the business of movie making and less to do about religion or politics. A man Hollywood made rich(like so many others) took their money, went off without them, and is making a boatload of money. What do actors and directors want most? Creative Freedom. The studios are shaking in their Gucci Boots that others will soon follow. And I hope they do. Maybe we'll get some good old fashioned movie making instead of the crap we get today.

My fear is that Hollywood will start making religious films. They will look at the passion, see nothing but the violence, and start making films of saints and martyrs that contain none of the soul of these people, but only the torture. Don't forget that hollywood is good at ruining any good story.

Sorry. After I pushed "Post", the computer took a long time to deliver the post. Then my computer screen indicated "Satellite Outage" so I back-arrowed and pushed "Post" again. That's how I got the same message posted twice.

H'weirdos are insulated in their own little world that they forget about the REAL world. These same H'weirdos complain, whine and deride people and their values outside of their own.

And then they whine because ticket sales are "inexplicably" dropping each year for the disgusting crap they continually put out. Inexplicable, my butt.

No problem. LOL We all take those three martini lunches once in a while. Now back to our regularly scheduled bashing of liberals in general and the lying traitor Kerry in particular.

You're right there! I used to love to go to the movies. Loved the atmosphere, sense of excitement and of course, the popcorn. Since mid-90s, my attendance at any theatre has dropped to nothing. For 2003 I went to view just one movie and that was "LOTR Return of the King." For 2004 I want to see "Passion of the Christ" but I know I'll cry my eyes out. And that's the only reason I'm holding back in not attending.

Double bump! Remember that shudderingly bad TV miniseries on The Flood? Knowing Hollyweird they'll make a biblical movie where King David, with his action-wife Queen Ruth, routs King Nebuchadnezzar and saves Job from the firey furnace. Uriah the Hittite and Joshua will lead the charge. Meanwhile big buff Daniel is wrestling lions at the top of the Tower of Babel.

I can't wait. We're talking "Plan 9 from Outer Space" quality plotting here.

You can tell I'm not on the ball today. I didn't post the e-blast to start the thread, so it took us 37 postings before we finally got some Laura photos on this thread. Shameful. Thanks for your contribution.
