"It is that they made a conscious decision not to show the flag when it was most important."

Thats total BS. No reasonable person could see the movie and claim it isnt deeply patriotic and full of pride for the USA.

so just stop that crap

And yet Ryan Gosling and the producers and director went out of their way to say they did NOT want this to be a patriotic movie - nor an event that was specific to the efforts of the USA.

Or as one of the worst presidents of the USA would say “Y’all didn’t do that”

"...“I wanted the primary focus in that scene to be on Neil’s solitary moments on the moon. …This film is about one of the most extraordinary accomplishments not only in American history, but in human history,” Chazelle said..."

Not "BS". Are you arguing that they didn't deliberately omit it, beebuster2000, because they did. They absolutely did.

You may be fully into the concept that The Soviet Union, Red China, Nazi Germany, Uganda, and Bangaldesh had as much to do with landing a man on the moon for the first time (Which is exactly what the POS director wants to convey) but I, and many others believe this was an effort that was American.

Americans paid billions of our hard earned dollars to make it happen. We had men die in the process because it was dangerous, and some (including Armstrong) who nearly died. It happened on American soil. Every single one of those men were American.

It is your view to accept the globalist viewpoint and philosophy of the director.

I DID NOT CRITICIZE YOU FOR ACCEPTING THAT. I IDID NOT SAY "STOP POSTING THAT CRAP. I DID NOT SAY IT WAS BS.

I would appreciate the same consideration I gave YOU as a fellow member of Free Republic.

And for what it is worth, I did not criticize the movie as not “deeply patriotic” or “full of pride”.

If you are going to get angry angry about things people say, I suggest you be more focused in your criticism.

Just to reiterate: I won’t see the movie because they made a conscious decision not to show the American flag when it was used at one of the most historic moments in the history of man.

I didn’t criticize YOU or anyone else who saw it. As far as I am concerned, that is your business, your money.

Okay?
