The Devil's Arithmetic

I betcha his script on Rush would have gotten a pretty good audiance. The new one is going to bomb. Eventually, Hollywood is going to have to wake up to the reality that money is no longer falling from the sky.

"24" btw is doing pretty good with its rather non-PC portrayal of Islamic terrorists.

The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has been leaning very heavily on Hollywood the past few years and the film industry is, frankly, terrified. According to CAIR, not a single Muslim should ever be portrayed as a terrorist on film, reality be damned.

"24" is the exception. I heard they so butchered "The Sum of All Fears" that I refused to go see it. The last movie I can remember that gave a somewhat accurate portrayal of Islamofascist terrorism was "True Lies" over 10 years ago, and even then, the PC police screamed bloody murder.
