It is? Where does the right to do evil come from? The Constitution? God, the ultimate source of all rights?
Sure it is. It's called "Benji Goes to San Francisco." Just wait.
I am really looking forward to seeing Black Snake Moan. I am a big fan of Samuel L. Jackson, and the soundtrack looks like the most incredible thing ever.
Happyness was a great movie about the American Dream. It also enforced my belief that if everyone were stripped of their money and possessions, 10 years from now, the same people would be wealthy, the same people would be in debt, etc. The man in Happyness at every crossroads took the road needed for him to achieve his dream, no matter how hard. Too many Americans would have given up at the first or second setback.
I enjoy movies, but limit what I see to lighter stories and all Harry Potter. "A Good Year" with Russell Crowe was great. OK, Russell Crowe was great! :)
Who gets to judge what is evil?
Good to know the names of several pieces of $%&* that I will not waste my money going to see.
Now it's The Ivy in snow, just a glorified party for Hollywood lefties.

Didnt agree with the rest of my statement?
That's the job of every individual person, and "individual mileage may vary", as you Americans like to say.
However, there are some things that are quite apparently wrong and the vast majority of common people have no trouble recognizing it. It's our elites and their pitiful brainwashed followers who have a problem seeing the plain evidence of their own eyes.
So, the elites are evil? And everyone gets to point fingers and proclaim whatever they like evil?
I mean, geez, if we're talking about real, bonafide evil here -- Hitler, etc. -- then let's just lock all the elites up.
Every conservative should read this book. From Dawn to Decadence by Jacques Barzun
It seems like anywhere that Liberals have the greatest influence or control there will be decay and nihilism.

No arguements here !!!!!!
Some are, but most are just fools. Unfortunately they are fools who control a vast amount of what most others get to see and hear via the media.
No good can come of it.
Plus their constituents are the most violent in America and their held to lower standards.
There was a time when the best artists felt an obligation to uplift society. Wordsworth recognized that "people have a degrading thirst after outrageous stimulation," and refused to pander to it. He recognized that it takes no talent to get attention by pandering to that "degrading thirst."
Our "popular culture" is now dominated by people who do nothing but pander. Completely amoral people, who are slowly desensitizing this culture to all things evil and degrading.
The dumbing down effect.
Starts in the schools, agendas are more important than an education.
Would Hollywood moguls ever think of exploiting children?

Yes, on a daily basis.
