Cultural Left Assaults Star Wars

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

Do they expect Princess Leia or Senator Amidala to do strip teases and jump into bed with all the different aliens?

We've been exposed to the new Planet of the Apes on DVD last night. Watch for the erotic tension culminating with a kiss on the lips between the #1 human action male and the Michael Jakson-lookalike young monkey female. Ahhh... the delights and (false) taboos of interspecies love.

...or go on meds.

There is the problem right there. Too many meds.

[BibChr]

My first reaction was that these people really need to get a life...or go on meds.

...or get off them.

I liked SWII. Now I like it better.

You connect the dots well, young Enterprise, there is room for you on the dark side, come join.

[galt-jw]

this is the best endorsement of the movie i can think of.
no joke.

i'm definitely going to see it in the theater now.

[aruanan]

The masses are counted as besotted when they vote for Reagan or listen to conservative talk radio....

Or when they buy cars with tail fins.

[ZULU]

i'll make a point of seeing this movie - SEVERAL TIMES!!

[Enterprise]

I hate to break this to you, but that wasn't a monkey. It was Oprah doing a cameo.

[I still care]

I missed that thread. I would love to read that. I got the Star Wars phantom menace book from DK, it is so obviously a slam at Republicans. (Evil grubs starting war over their hatred of paying their fair share of taxes - a lot of people missed in the movie that the main point was the bad guys were a BUSINESS association). So I love it when the left attacks him.

That said, I really respect the commitment he has had towards keeping the Star Wars series PG. So many people would have moved towards making them PG 13 by now.

[Clemenza]

Nah, they just wanted Anakin and Obi-Wan to develop a "Greek" relationship on Naboo.

My mommy won't let me, and besides, I'm afraid of the dark!

ROFLOL!!!!

[SkyPilot]

"the American moviegoing public will line up out of habit and compulsion . . .". True to form, when the unwashed masses deviate from the tastes of elite media (the supposed champions of people) they are branded as lemmings.

So true. Remember what junk won Best Picture just a couple of years ago?

Shakespear in Love

Now, I have nothing against William Shakespear, nor the concept of love. In fact, I fancy both quite a bit. But this "un filme" should not have been voted dogcatcher....especially when the movie that should have won that year was this!

But you know what? Many voting members of the Academy admitted they never even watched Spielburg's Saving Private Ryan! They wanted "Love", not "War."

Hey, the STAR WARS pictures may not be perfect, but I'll watch 'em three times each before I ever go see another movie that these elites love, like The English Patient.

That was a good article. When I was growing up in Fairfield in the 70's and 80's my best freind liked the empire over the rebellion. He thought the empire was the better system. :-) Vader Rules !!!!

[Cincinatus]

Clearly, you understand the power of the Dark Side! :-)

[Enterprise]

Taboo love on Naboo. Thankfully the people are comfortably hetero. Otherwise I could imagine the spectre of gay cult movie goers tittering, kissing and poking each other with their light sabres, or other pointed objects.
