I like going to movies but there are very few any more that have any appeal to me. I have zero interest watching some lame-brain movie about global warming or trying to convince me that homosexuality is normal. Also, they seem to be long on computer generated graphics and short on story. That also goes for the ones available through streaming as well as the theater movies.

I hardly consume any US made entertainment anymore, most now comes from other countries.

Hollywood is so very happy and proud that they support dictatorial leftists.

They loved Hitler in the 1930s, didn't want to lose access to the German market.

I’d like nothing better than to see the Hollywood entertainment industry collapse, at all levels.

I actually haven't bought anything at a movie theater concession stand since I was a kid in the 1970s. I would always eat before or after the movie.

It also grossed me out a little to have people munching food around me at the movie theater. Can't people go a couple hours without cramming their mouths?

I watch pretty much vintage stuff.

Mostly on DVDs around here I’ve piled up.

Lately, it’s been the upbeat comedy Ironside.

I tried to be funny.

I just killed dishtv, even at the bare minimum it was approx. $600 per year. And I was watching less and and less of their offerings.

Roku has a lot of good vintage stuff.

Hard to think I call 90s TV that at times.

Time Trax is on and I’ve been watching it off and on. Decent series.

It’s as though justice coming to Harvey Weinstein triggered the reset that was to come of Hollywood and its blockbuster Multiplex moviehouses.They really had nothing to do with one another, the re-setters are if anything onboard with Hollywood’s perversity AND cravenness, but this is just another casualty of the their stupidity and generalized sadism in trying to bring the American economy down.

"Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion."

-Harvey Weinstein

And to think there was a time when I saw at least one movie per week!

Great news!

In Georgia, the movie industry is trying to gain a foothold. It could be one of the things that slowly turns the state Blue if we’re not careful. The worse they do the better. It’s like having a little slice of California inside Atlanta.

No doubt the actors and movie crews have other work skills.
