Big Hollywood : The Way You Wear Your Hat - Listen Up, Hollywood, It's Important

Sun, 3 Jan 2010 18:02:00 +0000

It's amazing to look at photographs of people in bread lines in the 30s. Even when they had no jobs, no money, and no hope, they still took the effort to look presentable. Now look at some of the rich liberals today, who have a habit of looking like they buy at the local thrift store. I believe we're living in a new dark age.

I can't see what her problem is. She's clearly not going to starve to death.

Big Hollywood : 'Avatar' Open Thread: What did YOU think?

That would have at least been an interesting plot. It's a shame that Hollywood often ignores interesting angles in their stories in favor of boring ideology.

I'm sorry, the humans needed help from an outside force? Like in Christianity, where we can't attain salvation on our own but require Christ's death and resurrection?

Actually, you're right, it is a bad war movie...but I've never really thought of it as a war movie. It's set during a war, and has soldiers, but it doesn't feel like a war movie. It feels more like the Odyssey or the Aeneid than a regular war movie: it's a bunch of guys on a boat, hunting a monster, and having encounters with strange things along the way.

Big Hollywood : Hollywood Unites to Defend Polanski

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 02:31:18 +0000

According to Hollywood, making a few decent movies places you above the law. According to real people, sodomizing a teenage girl places you below dirt. Polanski = scum.

I love the arts, but I certainly don't want them funded with taxpayer dollars. Note to artists: if you want to create art, either get a patron or get a job!

I thought assassins had three names: John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, etc. Of course, for serial killers, there's John Wayne Gacy...

The South Park guys are libertarian. They did one episode explaining how great corporations are.

Big Hollywood : NBC's Reality TV: To Catch a Terrorist

Watch this show and don't watch the liberal stuff. If enough people do that, maybe NBC'll get the point.

Big Hollywood : 'jOker': 'Art is What You Can Get Away With'

As a caption, may I suggest, "Why so socialist?" I once tripped over a modern art display at a museum. They'd put the darn thing in the middle of the hall, ostensibly to make us think about "space." All I could think of was strangling the artist.

I knew a few goths in high school. They were prone to acts of VANDALism. Can you imagine the GAUL? ... Sorry...

From Sommers's comment, I think we know which one it'll be. I have no intention of seeing it.

I've been reading Bloom's book lately. It could have been written yesterday. I see all that stuff all the time at my college.
