HOLLYWOOD CASTRATTI IS ALL THAT'S LEFT

Another reason for the decline in movie quality? I submit to you that the people reviewing movies for all major media are all women or homosexual men, with very few exceptions. It is their perverted views of the world that have become the standard for movie criticism. The preponderance of women in this capacity not only trivializes major themes, they bury any movie not containing the proper number of "good" female roles in the slag heap. The most recent example was the TCM evaluation of a showing of The Godfather by a female (read: feminist or possibly lesbian) "guest" reviewer who promptly proceeded to shrug off any evaluation of the movie as "great" because it didn't adhere to dramatic standards (whatever the hell they are). One reason for the success of this movie was the undeniable heterosexuality of all the characters. There was not a limp wrist in the bunch. No DiCaprios, Pitts, or Clooneys in the entire conglomeration of mobsters. The same can be said for almost any pre 1960 movie. This same "woman" thought Treasure of the Sierra Madre was just mediocre. What all this means is that real men are threatening to these effete snobs so any movies containing them are tossed aside. The mincing psuedo threatening Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean is about as masculine as they want to get.

Let them dig their own grave. I'll pay Netflix to see the old TV shows or a good shoot-em-up once in awhile but I won't set foot in a theater or pay for crappy cable.

When the Left Wing Jews who run Hollywood get tired of corrupting our culture and losing money things will change. Until then I'll pay royalties to the estates of actors who if nothing else were real men and women and who when war came and duty called didn't side with our enemies. Fuck them. Not one penny from me.

Nobody my age that I know, (and I'm 31) male or female for that matter goes to the movies anymore. $10 bucks a ticket for the shit that's produced? A sick joke. That is at least 2 beers and I live near Manhattan! Much better to spend the money on booze than on some garbage that is supposed to be "uplifting," "courageous" or some other pretentious crap.

And if the media recommends the movie, then you can be 100% positive it is shit. Brokeback Mountain? Not even the gay guy that cuts my hair went to see it.

Video games are where the action is. At least you get to shoot stuff, blow things up and kill aliens/people, etc...and I think they make more money now than film do.

Real men aren't afraid of gay men.
