Hollywood is repulsive because its filled with repulsive people.
We have people without values lecturing to us about values.
Enough of the hypocrisy.
Faster,faster,faster.
“...I watched them for work...”
You need a better job.
Note to Hollyweird: If anyone wants to actually make some money and has nine figures to invest, give me a call about a little something I call Red Bits Productions. Good stories, sane budgets, great box office. But I won’t hold my breath while I wait.
I want to have mercy on them.
I want their demise to be quick!
Haven’t watched an Oscar’s nor any other awards show since the 70’s.
The media/entertainment types thrive because there are enough a$$wholes who watch their crap and who fawn over “celebrities.” I couldn’t give two rats’ tails twitches over the glitzy, faux-smile, hypocritical, false-virtue, empty, shallow shells that pass for “celebrities.”
As far as most Hollywood “celebrities” go, I would not perpendicularly traverse a linearly configured conveyance route to micturate upon them were I to ascertain that they were rapidly combining with oxygen.
I was done with the Oscars in 1978. I have a VERY long memory.
The catalyst: Star Wars was up against Annie Hall. As usual, they would show a scene from each of the contenders. For star wars it was an amazing battle scene, like nothing ever seen before in cinema. For Annie Hall it was a ridiculous “Lobster in the Kitchen” scene.
It was a no brainer, except it wasn’t. Annie Hall won.
It was that day that I realized the award was political. I never watched them again.
No TV show will change the way you view
I disagree with this statement. Advertisers would not spend billions of dollars on commercials if they did not influence people.
What Television does is set the “norms” for society. Early movies did as well. Television (and movies) replaced the old village story teller who past on life lessons.
I hope Hollywood enjoys the world they are creating with the life lessons they have been teaching since the the 1970s. They blurred the line between right and wrong, worse, they preach that each individual can decide for themselves what is right and what is wrong.
A society can not exist (peacefully) when there are no rules that everyone understands and obeys.
So many people just have to be a part of changing the world, are deeply driven by that desire. Hollywood, news people and teachers are in those ranks. Now, pubic school students are, too. But, their ideals are utopian, emotion-based and illogical. Im so damned tired of this bs.
Just following the lead of the NFL...
As an actress relative said one day. The industry likes edgy movies that the rubes do not.
“Hollywood”,”Show Biz”, and all the “Award Shows” are nothing but a sleazy CIRCLE JERK.
No thanks. The sooner it dies the better.
I am doing everything I can to speed it up.
Hollywood has basically become comic book movies and art house message movies nobody wants to watch. Actually, with the advent of the great cable tv and streaming service cinema the two hour Hollywood movie is becoming pretty irrelevant.
Instead of pushing the liberal agenda, they should make more unique entertainment movies like: Beetlejuice, Young Frankenstein, Short Circuit, as well as the old spaghetti westerns (Clint, Eli, Terrence Hill), etc. Those types of movies were/are entertaining. There are dozens of more of that type, of course.
Who wants to spend money and a couple of hours to watch a film that was made to try to indoctrinate the viewers into believing some delusional liberal, perverted viewpoint?
Mostly I wait till today’s films come to DVD and the library gets a copy I can take out for free. That way I watch without guilt. I enjoy it more since it’s free.
Black Panther may be a really good movie. But I am reminded of the way Blacks, as a unit, vote for any Black running. I wonder if Hollywood made this movie, assuming that all Blacks would go see it because it featured a Black hero. I hate to go there, but in elections, it is obvious that most Blacks vote their race before ideology. My one conservative Black friend confided in me that many of her Evangelical friends who are Black, still voted for Obama in 2012. So, for too many Blacks, race trumps ideology.
