You can't stop the movie going public from being idiots . . . so I'm not sure what's your point.

The movies have an enormous range, from the Bergmans to the Aptows. So what?

the point is the ease with which the majority of the movie going public's perception of reality is changed via the use of "creative license". motion picture movies and television represent the pinnacle in brain washing technology. IMHO, hollywood has come to believe it's own publicity a little too much.....and, sadly, they currently enjoy the POWER to shape and mold the public's opinion.......

You mean liberals like Tom Selleck, Charlton Heston (RIP), and Ahhhnold Schwartzenegger? Basterds indeed

Its still an awesome movie, not great in the sense of "Citizen Kane, The Sound of Music, etc" but you catch drift.

The Sound of Music?


Dude.

I'm a pretty well settled crony capitalist, in modern terms.

It was a joke, because the dude sounds like one of those types. 'Course its not funny any more since it had to be spelled out...

Screw all this "Jewish Liberal Hollywood" slant. German soldiers undoubtedly committed some atrocities on the POW's they captured, how much of a reach is it to think our guys may have done the same"?

The movie is a fiction after all, not a documentary.

I've got it!!!!

Let's take any movie that has a hint of "revisionist" in it, and we'll send it over to Ted Turner's "Color-Correctum" Gizmo Factory. Then we'll hire the Claymation animation team that did "Celebrity DeathMatch" (or whatever its name was) and have the two groups re-do the movie in AMAZING SPLAT-O-VISION to better deliniate reality from friction...(misspelling intended... )

That way, you can go "over the top" with whatever views you have and no one should get confused.

Either that, or we give each ticket purchaser a 5-minute "reality check" before he enters the theater. If the movie-goer can't come up with a valid ID, has trouble remembering the spelling of his/her first name or uses Velcro instead of shoe-strings to keep his/her shoes on his/her feet, then they can't see a real movie.

And that there, is MO, and I'm sticking to it!
