would that really stop you from seeing their movies?

Haven't seen one in years.

At the local library they have recent DVDs for check out, free, the Bush bash feasts are always available ...

The answer is yes, Hollywood needs to get with the program and spread their wealth around.

I just don't think those moving pictures will ever amount to anything. Maybe if there was a way to remove the sound.....

Are Hollywood's politics killing the movie business?

They're certainly not helping.

I certainly enjoy the scene in Titanic where DiCaprio sinks into the abyss.

Yes indeed and I have been not going to see some box office stars that are great at their craft.

Trailers for this film looked like it would be s good one to see I choose not to go because of recent comments by LD

That is certainly the major reason I don’t watch movies, and haven’t in years. Ditto any other product leftists produce or promote, if possible.

"Many Americans no longer trust Hollywood not to insult their beliefs and values.... "

That statement pretty much summarizes why I don't choose to go to movies often anymore. I'd rather have a good time at a movie than have my personal values bashed within the venue.

Considering that every one of Hollywoods “Iraq War BAD” movies bombed at the box office - yeah, I’d say so. I am an avid fan of “24” but I won’t be watching it when it finally premieres - I refuse to watch anything with uber-beyotch Janeane Garawfulo in it. Too bad, too - I have all the DVD sets.

I’m also going to go out on a limb and say Oliver Stone’s new move “W” isn’t going to do well, either. I wouldn’t bet the farm, but I really don’t know anyone whose planning to see it, even in liberal S.F.

DID see An American Carol — and loved it!

Yes.

Movies I have seen, these are the only ones in 10 years.

The Passion
The Patriot
Jurassic Park 2 (I started laughing when they opened the gun cabinet and pulled out M16s. And didn’t stop until the end of the movie. Horrible.)

My money does not go to Hollywood. They are on their own.

It certainly has stopped me from seeing many movies including the purchase of DVDs. I have a circle of friends that share selected DVDs across a dozen families. Selected DVDs get watched by perhaps 50 people and nobody goes to the theatre. This clearly cuts down on the profits received by the marketers of deviance and inane politics we call hollywood.

Thank goodness for all the Community Organizers who established studios in Hollywood.

I think the typical acting standards have sunk so low as to be almost nonexistent anymore and the only way for an actor to advance himself in such a barren wasteland is to spew the most venom against the political and cultural Right.

But that is no excuse because they could make a change by insisting the films they are offered have artful meaning, but then that would mean having to actually have talent and that takes work and time and effort.

I wish that those sanctimonious Hollywood people would just keep their stupid mouths SHUT. Several times there have been actors that I liked and would go to their movies until they opened their traps and caused me to not want to see them or their movies ever again. The really smart ones keep their opinions to themselves. I guess a lot of these younger ones have grown up in such a liberal environment that they don’t know any better. It’s shameful.

This is why I watch Korean movies/dramas. The writing/acting/directing are 100% better than most of the crap coming out of hollywood these days.

Their actors also keep their mouths shut about politics and don’t lecture their fans about how to live their lives.

I hope their industry goes down with the MSM.

I won’t contribute a dime to these scum.
