Manchurian Candidate, Liberal-Style

Good article on The American Spectator website about the remake of The Manchurian Candidate:

The American Spectator

This was a fabulous movie, and very timely back in the early sixties when it first came out. I didn't see the movie until it was re-released in the 80s, but even then it was very interesting and scary. The original movie had statements to make about the dangers of communism, and the lack of basic humanity that shaped this failed ideology.

The newest movie is a shameful, slanted, ridiculous remake perpetrated by the same Hollywood liberals that brought you The Day After Tomorrow, Canadian Bacon, and Farenheit 9/11. Apparently, the dangers of communism and socialism strike too close to home for current H-wood elites. According to them, an insidious vast right-wing conspiracy is a bigger danger - obviously the Repulicans are standing in the way of creating the Peoples Republic of the United States. Thank goodness.

I'm also still very pissed about "The Sum of All Fears" movie with Ben Afleck. Tom Clancy: How could you sit by and let them butcher one of your best novels like that? Rather than point the finger at the real terrorists in the middle east who are trying to kill us, Hollywood prefers to be politically correct and talk about neo-Nazis. Rather than reproduce Clancy's middle-east situation/solution and therefore the driving force for the Palestinian terrorists who nuke Denver, Hollywood prefers in the movie to cast 1930s-style Nazi fascism as the danger from which we should guard ourselves. Clancy's premise in the book makes the Isrealies and Americans the heroes, NO WAY Hollywood can stand doing that.

Hollywood annoys me more every day, their arrogance and presumption are staggering. Not just the college dropouts like Martin Sheen who try to instruct Harvard and Yale grads in the current administration in geo-politics and government. Not just the feather-heads like Sean Penn, Sarandon, Afleck, Garofalo, Goldberg, and Tim Robbins that wouldn't know what it's like to be oppressed and marginalized by religious fascism, but of course don't feel restrained from speaking out against those who would free the oppressed. Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing, but it's not fair that truly gifted and fair minds of the conservative, or even moderate persuasion don't get the green light to speak their minds in entertainment industry. Free speech is only for those 'enlightened' enough to be liberals, socialists, or communists.

The American people are finally seeing through the liberal bias of Hollywood and the media, and responding with their wallets. Liberal propaganda disguised as movies are becomming huge money losers, and rightly so.

BOYCOTT MOORE-ON'S PROPAGANDA!!!

Adios MF,

Doug
