Sorry, Hollyweird, but car crashes, gangsta thugs, obviously aged "stars" with too much plastic surgery, and anti-American propaganda flicks just don't cut it for this consumer.

The last movie I saw and truly enjoyed was the Kurt Russell film, "Miracle" about the 1980 Olympics ice hockey team coach Herb Brooks and the gold medal win. Fantastic and made ya feel damn good.

Hollyweird has totally forgotten the fine art of storytelling, instead it's a mindless whirl of stereotyping and boredom.

Oh......poor Mike Farrell. (sp?)......

did you catch him on Hannity today.....with his BS crap?

The Hollywood folks are kind of like John Kerry........no one listens, so give it up.

Dummies that they are.

Exactly.

It's become a poorly-drawn caricature and parody of its former self.

You know they have Jumped The Shark when they make movies based on cartoons.

Basic plot summary of 90% of the trailers I've seen recently:

1) It's dark
2) It's wet
3) Everything blows up, catches fire, or jumps
4) And the plot is stolen from another movie...
