time to hit hollywood hard
we need to call the companies who these morons work for . . . we need to call the people who sell their products . . . we need to call the movie theatres who show their movies and tell them NO MORE . . .,
America is now on strike against hollywood.
We should buy no more albums, no more newspapers, no more dvd's, no more cd's, no more movie tickets we should stop watching network tv . . .
Burn Hollywood Burn!
I stopped donating to Hollywood a year ago by seeing their trash movies.
Doesn't work. People won't suffer giving up their playthings.
but hollywood will take note when their revenues have gone down.
we need to mobolize. hit the local talk radio shows. tell them what we're doing. maybe someone more elioquent then I could call hannity and rush?
this only works if this is a national message!
What we need to understand is that if rich liberals want to salve their social consciences they should do it with their own money. Money states including California have Initiative and referendum. I think their is about 20 states in all. What we need to do is sponsor referendum's to tax movie and other entertainment (including tv and recording) royalties at least 25%. Also We need to tax television networks for each affiliate that they have. Also we can tax advertising and circulation on large urban newspapers. And why not while we are at it put more taxes on Lawyer incomes. I know most of us do not like taxes. But, I think by making the people responsible for our high taxes pay their share (and more) we will be lowering our own. After we start the momentum with state referendum's we can put pressure on our GOP legislatures to enact legislation as well. I am sure that states that have a heavy Oil and Tobacco industry would be very interested to join. since these people are so interested in loading up this country with illegal immigrants and taxing the rich and everybody else it is just hypocrisy for them to not pay and good politics on our side to make them.
The public needs to see and hear the actual video including all of the venomous speeches by the the hollywierdos.
It would be great to have a "Shoot your TV" day people could bring their TV's to a firing range and blow the heads off Rather, Jennings Couric et al.
maybe we should go disrupt live tv talk shows when these hollyweird types come on.
How about freeping the movie theatres ? Show up with a sign that says "don't watch movies" "Hollywood is UN American".
Well, this is strictly anecdotal but I stopped going to movies about three years ago and I feel as if I've missed NOTHING! And as a plus, when a friend starts to describe a scene in a flick, or to talk about a movie I can simply stop him and say that I have no interest in the movie. I never have to be polite and listen and nod as he plods through plot descriptions and such. Try it! You'll find yourself with more time to do more important things. (Same goes for television, only not 100% boycott). SSZ
Is this a thread? Or
is this a coded message
to friends overseas?
Man, if I thought enough people would finally GET OFF THEIR A**ES and stop paying salaries to those on the left coast who Pi** all over us I would work 'till I dropped! I am so freaking sick of it I can't tell you!!!!! You tell me what I;m there brother, but we have got to do soething or stop whining!!!!!!!
I feel really cranky today!
Our family hasn't been to a single movie in the ten years I've been married.
We turned off our satellite tv service last January and don't miss it a single bit.
We are better informed now by way of the internet, magazines like Amspec, Natrev, WashTimes and many more along with talk radio.
We aren't giving a penny of our money to people who hate us and want to destroy our country.
We know more and more people who are doing the same thing. Turn them off- it's easy and final.

I'm waiting for exceptional 3D animated graphics to replace them--ala Final Fantasy - The Movie. I'm not big on sci-fi, but I was able to watch this animation and had absolutly no problem with the characters not being "real".
Voice actors won't necessarily have to be today's known celebrities.

You are preaching to the choir. I suspect many readers
of this site have already run the calculation, and
decided to spend their money elsewhere, and long ago
at that.
The calculation: before purchasing any entertainment or
"news" product, ask yourself: what percent of each dollar
is going directly to the DNC?
But also keep in mind that it's more effective to focus
your money (and energy) on supporting what you endorse,
than on resisting what you oppose.

Thanks. This was mine:
re: Whoopie
I cannot believe that you have not removed her as a spokesperson for your products immediately after her shameful and disrespectful comments about the President of the UNited States at the Dwmocratic demonstration last week. Her disrespect and hate for the President indicates her hate and disrespect for all Americans. As long as she is associated with Slim-Fast neither I nor any of my family will purchase or use ANY Slim Fast product.
