I am actually fascinated by the technology that went into the movie, but I'm sick of the way these leftists take their success for granted and get the idea that the ability to entertain makes one able to pontificate about political affairs. I am somewhat shocked taht "Polar Express," while not a flop, certainly doesn't appear to be a blockbuster. For what it's worth, I will always admire Hanks and Spielberg for making "Saving Private Ryan" and Spielberg for "Schindler's List," I think they were possibly the two best movies made in the last 25 years.

I thought both of those were great. Another of my favorites was Hanks' HBO series, "From the Earth to the Moon" and of course "Apollo 13".

Hanks is a lefty and Spielberg is a major Castro bootlicker.

Spielberg got rich on making violent films for children.

Polar Express is a HUGE flop. They spent $290 million in total and it has grossed $23 million and will be pulled from the cinemas soon.

The cinemas kill turkeys fast. They need to keep those seats filled.

hanks will be in the anti-Christian Dav Vinci Code.
