The American Left is an enemy every bit as dangerous as Al Qaeda. They are a vile, foul, Satan-revering Orc army. They are odious, hideous slime-covered slugs, they are vermin. They are not even human beings. They are demonic, child-killing pedophiles and murderous rapist pigs. They are genocidal lechers and leaches that have sexual intercourse with corpses, and they love it. Each and every one of them should be stricken with painful pancreatic cancer. If every one of them was wiped off the Earth, it would not be enough. They are heinous, twisted, demented evil demons of putrescence and corruption.
I understand your feelings on going and seeing this movie. my brother in law I am positive will never see this movie because of the fact that it will give him flash backs when he goes to sleep at night. I don’t know what he did when he was in the army and only rarely has he ever talked about it. I do know that he has probably read the book but for him the visuals of any war movie is just to much for him. I wonder how many other veterans that is the case for.
Kind of an odd headline and story given that Hollywood (Warner Bros, specifically) put the movie out.
Some Hollywood stars may be speaking out against it, but Hollywood (the business) loves it and the money it is bringing in.
Besides, after 50 years of anti-war movies, is there really anything more to be said? Yeah, we get it. War is bad. Uh huh. But there is a little more to it than that ...
I liked Body of Lies. Russell Crowe and Mark Strong were both great in it.
There’s nothing that threatens the left as much as that.

“His Soviet Union actively connected with and supported Communists within the Hollywood elites “
The communists formed ‘Hollywood’ after they couldn’t get control of NYC media.
The contest is between American Sniper, Boyhood, and Birdman. I think Boyhood wins Best Director, Birdman Best Picture. Clint gets the consolation that his picture is a smash hit, and maybe Bradley Cooper gets Best Actor (Michael Keaton and Benedict Cumberbund being the main competition. Cumberbund playing a Hollywood favorite - the tortured persecuted gay genius. And Keaton because he's back.)
How many anti-slavery movies do we have to get? Yeah slavery is bad. Tell it to the parts of the world (where, coincidentally, the pedophile prophet is worshipped) where it is still de facto practiced...
But they don’t seem quite as handy with guns yet.
As for islamists however....
“Some Hollywood stars may be speaking out against it, but Hollywood (the business) loves it and the money it is bringing in.”
And that is what is scaring the bejesus out of the lefty kooks in Hollywood. For years their money loser agenda movies were tolerated by the business side because there was really no alternative. Now, along comes these movies that not only fly in the face of the lefty kook agenda, but also make huge profits. The kooks are nervous that their agenda driven money losers will no longer be tolerated when compared to the hugely profitable patriotic and Christian themed movies.
In short, free market competition might prove to be too big a force for the lefty Hollywood kooks to overcome.
I saw the movie and it’s great. Highly recommend it.
I don’t think “Hollywood” id totally against it. The academy constitutes all of the powerful folks and the movie received several nominations. Don’t see any snubs except Eastwood. Cooper did a great job in his portrayal and putting the values up on the screen. He was nominated.
They may not in, but all the nominations do not support a conclusion that Hollywood is slamming the movie. Just the usual idiots.
I liked Whoopie Goldberg’s comment yesterday about seth rogen.
“We supported your right to make your movie snow be quite and do the same for others.” Good line.
If you look at Fox News, Ailes realized that there was an unmet demand for something different in the realm of hard news and commentary. Every other network was no more than a liberal carbon copy with no conservative choice being available. They capitalized on that vacuum and have been rewarded handsomely.
In many ways what Eastwood and others are doing is akin to what Fox News did. They are meeting a huge market demand for movies that convey the values of (really) a majority of Americans. The studios are catching on and want their piece of the pie.
Selma may or may not be a quality movie. Haven’t seen it. May see it sometime on cable.
I am burned out on the black cause. Ferguson and the rest of the demonstrations for legitimate police actions and destroying neighborhood businesses, Al Aharptongue, Holder, OB, all leave me feeling like it’;s their problem and quit bit chin and get a job.
Not in the mood and not empathetic.
Thanks, I’m sure that you know more about this than I ever will. I have noticed that the correlation between truly good movies and Academy Awards is somewhat lacking.
Yikes! No kidding. Someone's gone off their meds.
And all this time, I thought I was the ONLY one who felt that way.
And, their DOGS are UGLY too!
***Don’t see any snubs except Eastwood***
Don’t forget Eastwood was responsible for “The Chair.” Hollywood will not reward someone who mocked Obola.
