Don’t go to the movies, not even the ones supposedly made for children. It’s not worth it and your dollars help to make these “anti-capitalists” rich (love the irony on that one)

Thanks for the warning. So far I have skipped Avatar, and Green Zone. Hollywood would be the first thing to go if they actually got what they so vigorously promote...

OK, have any of you seen "Clash of the Titans" yet?
Is it leftist agitprop, or just a whacking good story?

Marty’s a Lefty, but the fact is the anti-McCarthy message was in Lehane’s book before it was made into a movie. Reminds of those who complained about the anti-religious aspects of War of the Worlds without knowledge of HG Wells’ own atheism and hostility to religion in general(also in the book).

You will know what the “surprise” ending is in the first few minutes making the rest of the movie sort of pointless.
To: JLWORK
the remnants of the late 1940s to early 1950s House Un-American Activities Committe (HUAC). The late Senator Joseph McCarthy, who tactlessly investigated numerous Soviet agents within the U.S. Government, immediately came to my memory. Whenever someone mentions a House committee, I always think of a Senator. < / sarc
In actual fact, with a name change, HUAC remained in existence till 1975. Watergate finally drove a stake thru its heart.

If you must go to it, buy a ticket to one of the “good conservative movies” which is very rare, and then switch theatres on the way in, you support the local movie theatre and stick it to the Hollywood Establishment.

Iâm amazed that entertainers work so hard and so often to alienate half their audience. The Dixie Chicks come to mind. I guess that after youâve âmade itâ you can afford it.

. . . . I saw the movie, and don't recall anything anti-conservative about it. There was an offhand mention of McCarthy, but the guy that believes all of these theories ends up being crazy. He's invented this whole scenario wherein this asylum is actually an American government front for torture and mind experimentation (based on anti-communist operations) ... ... but none of it is true. Its just an asylum ... he's invented the government conspiracy stuff as part of his invented personality due to the trauma of his wife drowning their kids. SnakeDoc

I had written the word SPOILER at the top of that ... but I think I put it in brackets that made it get picked up as an HTML code.

Yours was the second post I saw today that had those typos in it. There must be some gremlins in the FR machinery this morning.
