And the most distressing thing about the present attitude of Hollywood - that the Islamic jihadists have full moral equivalence with the Western ideals - Hollywood would be one of the FIRST targets of Islamic fundamentalism should they get any foothold in the US. They may already be a target and don't realize it.
I think I was confused over the two films. Sorry for the confusion.
Well you're right about that. And I dare say the international popularity of "beheading videos" may be the Islamic porn.
Wasn't the attack on Pearl Harbor not until DECEMBER '41? What war effort was this guy supporting?
Bible Study guides? I've never heard of this movie.
Trailer looks cool. But... Disney? Mellencamp?
Be afraid.

Beheading videos are recruitment tapes. They are also sent to the media (which airs them) to scare opponents from speaking out ("your next!").
Even before we entered the war, there was "support" for England. Somewhere I have a matchbook with a slogan to that effect.
Enough said.........

Then again, Hollywood supported communism over America's constitution and form of government as well.
When Stewart returned home, he forbade any use of his service record to publicize his movies. Jimmy Stewart was a patriot with a capital P.
You'd think that with the success of The Passion of the Christ the entertainment industry would get a clue and stop pandering (literally!) to the Fringe Left and losing a boatload of money along the way.
I mean, think about the biggest moneymakers from the movies in the past 15 years--almost NONE of them blatantly espouse a Leftist view. The Hollywood Left must be on a self-indulgent ego trip, to say the least.
There are people who put country before career/self.
The last time I saw Ted Williams was on the eve of the 1992 election when he spoke at a rally to re-elect George HW Bush.
Bump. Ok, I won't complain as loudly when you want to watch old B&W movies anymore... ;-)
Nothing else to offer my money for them.
