    The end result of Leftist ideology (that you swallowed in for much of your life)...

    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      "Everything has become too fragile, too sensitive. Hollywood now — you can’t make a film without a Covid adviser. You can’t make a film without a sensitivity counselor. It’s ridiculous," Stone told the Times.

      wow

          Maybe that's why we are only seeing harmless and boring CGI spectacles from Hollywood these days.

            You know what I think it is? They're just a big damn monolith that no one really has to listen to anymore, and we're going to start to figure that out real soon.

            Fringe streaming services don't have to kowtow to this bullshit, and they're already attracting actors they should ordinarily have no business hiring because it's B.S.-free. Directors are more free to just give things a shot, executives don't dictate storylines, and viewers love it because they're getting good stories again. Like sci-fi in the 70s, they're not always bangers, but even the mediocre stuff is idea-driven and because of that it's pretty well-received.

            Screw Hollywood. We don't need 'em.

            Please love yourself.

              Maybe so. If the writing is good, you don't need $100M to make a good movie.

                Recently I redd an interview with Russell Crowe; he talked about how the initial script for Gladiator was so bad that the actors frequently went before the camera and made up their own lines. The end result was kind of a mishmash with many contributors, everybody getting into the lingo of the time. It ended up pretty good, he said.
