Good. That confirms we are still on the right track.

I saw Inception last night, and thought it was good, but nowhere near the level that critics are gushing about. I give director Nolan credit for some clever ideas and script, but the acting was wooden. I had no emotion invested in any of these characters at all. For what it is worth, I thought the acting and character development was better in Avatar.

You can tell she’s just a mindless parrot in that clip reciting what blather someone told her. The brain is really not engaged when she’s talking.

Having seen the movie at a Sneak Preview last Thursday night and having read many of the posts here, here's my 2 cents' worth. To those posters who hopes the movie bombs or justifies BitTorrent/illegal downloading as "payback", I can only say this.

1) Hollywood employs a huge number of people, many of which are closet conservatives in a liberally-fascist industry. They have bills to pay, mouths to feed, lives to live. So, by punishing DeCaprio, Gordon-Lewitt, Page, etc, you're punishing the "little people", too. The cliche "Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right" may be old-school, but it applies here.

2) Christopher Nolan is an extremely talented director; I don't know his politics and ironically, I don't care to know. He's an extremely intelligent man who crafts movies that I enjoy. The fact that he directed "Inception", collaborating with Wally Pfister & Hans Zimmer is the ONLY reason I went to see the film in IMAX. I heartily enjoyed it, too. Remember that he created the two recent BatMan movies that both had a quasi-conservative bent to them.

3) The sad reality is that we will always be stuck with pampered fools who criticize what they don't care to understand. Technically, they're adults but being liberals, they have the temperament of a 5-year-old. Boycott the movie if you feel it will accomplish something, but Hollywood laughs at you in pretty much we laugh at liberals who staunchly defend Obama & his wretched ilk. I've noticed that Leo has toned down his GW zealotry, possible because his Golden Calf God, the Goreacle, isn't too golden these days.

4) I enjoyed "Inception" because of the story. It entertained me far more than the politically-infested overkill of "Avatar". I enjoy being entertained, not preached to. That's why I despise Cameron, Lucas, & Spielberg. They could entertain you if they wished, but they'd rather dictate to you what to think.

To actors such as DeCaprio, Page, Gordon-Lewitt, I can say only this:

A) Go ahead & criticize conservatives & their beliefs. They won't stop you from speaking your mind; conservatives believe in the First Amendment with the same level of fierceness that you believe in shutting those up that you disagree with.

B) I'm sure that by bashing conservatives, you'll all get lots of awards, you'll get invited to all the right cocktail parties, and you'll get laid by as much of both genders as you care to partake. It's indeed the Path of Least Resistance.

C) But I feel sorry for you all. You are all financially richer and more popular than I'll ever be, but you're hollow. You follow a dead cult-religion that rewards the lazy & punishes the productive. Conservatives believe in the power of the Individual; all of you believe in the power of generic Group-Think and Mass-Control.

So, who's the more mentally liberated?

She’s a Nova Scotia greenie. She was stressing the utiity of you saving your urine to improve your compost’s nitrogen on Leno the other night.

Decraprio has always struck me as some producers gay “find” — the Don Johnson of this era.

(Hollywood) is like wearing sneakers made with slave child labor. The quality doesn't matter if it feeds evil and bad behavior.

Bing. Go. 'Xactly. What you said.

Need to ask any lib at every opportunity what exactly does Cheney and Palin do to affect their lives. What exactly are they running these days? Prices and taxes are going up and show little signs of stabilizing. Cheney and Palin have no control over it. Why aren't they instead asking those who do run things what they're going to do about it.

You are right, Hildy. He was brilliant in that movie. He was also very good in Shutter Island and Inception. I found Inception to be quite entertaining.

Exactly. I hate when everyone gets lumped together unfairly. Libs always do that to us. We shouldn’t do it. Leonardo didn’t trash any conservative in that clip and wasn’t in the same location when Ellen Page did.

“Hollywood hates America.”
_________________________________

You have made way too broad a brush stroke there.

I agree that there are many outspoken liberal idiots in the entertainment industry who probably “hate America”.

But not all.

There are many good decent people in the industry.

Again, there are these outspoken nuts who day in and day out bash middle America.
They do it so much that to many it seems all people who work in this industry must think like them.

Not true.

This movie was good. No liberal slant or the attempt to shove liberal BS down our throats.
A good movie with an interesting story line and great special effects which added to the story.

Your loss if you miss it on the big screen.

I thought it was good too. Glad I only paid 4.50 after hearing they trashed conservatives.

I hope his movie bombs

It won't ... it was actually one of his best performances actually.

Dream state 5 layers deep (yes you read that right) .... and the memtic message that was delivered with brilliant subtlety ....

"Let go of relationships that go bad no matter how committed you are to each other"

These liberal idiots aren’t smart enough to understand simple economics. Plain and simple.
They can’t think past their initial brain-washed assumptions of “conservatives are mean”.

That is all they can muster in their pea size brains.

We have seen this played out over and over in interviews with these big-mouthed liberal actors and also in interviews with everyday people on the street.

Remember that “I wanna get me some of that Obama money!” crap.

Stupid people overstepping their boundaries of their IQ’s.

It was good. I saw a matinee showing. Saved a little money.

I wish some of these actors would learn to shut-up.
It gives many good, hard-working people in Hollywood a bad name.

Great cinematography. Just like the new Batman movies. Beautiful.

Leo DiCaprio is a known quantity, but do you get the impression Ellen Page was led or goaded into making her dumb comments after about an hour or so of interviewing?

Everything about her face and body language gave the impression she was desperate to please. I suspect it’s just possible the girl really is as guileless as she looks.
