It makes me laugh and pisses me off, because if we ever do face a real threat like that – whether its from aliens, or a reconstituted Russia, or China, or the Muslim Mob of Madness, you just freaking KNOW that the response is going to be exactly like that.

The Americans are coming to rescue us? About bloody time!

I never saw it that way. It seemed to me that the Brits were just anxious to get into the fight, showing their usual swagger in the face of world annihilation. Like during the Big War, eh?

The people in Puerto Rico complain, but, let’s see how fast their tune changes if we say “You guys win! We’re sorry. We’ll take all our naval training bases, financial aid, etc and give you back your island.”

Hey, they get to pretend to be their own country in the Olympics. What more do they want from us???

I’d be willing to kick some money/time in to produce and distribute entertainment online for a conservative audience.

Click on my name and contact me through the website.

Let’s talk.

Well, it sure seems that way. A new movie called “Terra” is coming out, and the invading baddies here are the humans (Hat tip: Newsbusters):…

I live in a heavily populated Puerto Rican/Brazilian neighborhood. When I use that argument? I get anywhere between “Good,we don’t NEED you’re help” to “F**k You white boy,we don’t need nobody telling us what to do” to slack jawed (admittedly older) folks just blinking and saying “we are here legally”….There IS no Americanism in them,and I count that as a blessing…

Because MOST of them GO HOME in the winter…Trafic around here is a lot lighter

My dolphin says:

Thanks for all the fish. Buh-bye!

I don’t know if anyone has said it above, but humans-as-invaders was also done by Bradbury in The Martian Chronicles…

…which also sucked.

I wonder if it is uniquely American for modern fiction writers to cast their fellow citizens as the careless, wanton, amoral antagonists in stories?

Thanks guys.

“Yes, I said the words…basically.”

Someone needs to make this asshole read STARSHIP TROOPERS.

Yeah, we all know how well Heinlein’s words are translated to the silver screen when put through the Hollywood meat grinder…

Put your kids in private school and make ‘em learn reading, writing, maths, and cinematography.

THIS is precisely why I am not working in this Industry in which I’m trained. I decided once I got that degree in Film that I DO NOT want to work with these uncreative, self back-patting, bleedingheart, anti-American Liberal morons. (Read: “Hollywood”). One can WRITE anywhere, so I’m happy I’m here, on the RIGHT coast.

And Allah, I’m having trouble with your use of “Pixar-ish” in your description. Pixar would NEVER do this sort of twaddle. Dreamworks, definitely…but not Pixar.

The problem is that, for anything but a big summer blockbuster, Hollywood can make their money back in the NY & LA markets alone.

Then, they export their liberal agenda/anti-American crap to the rest of the world and make a tidy little profit.

While their may be a huge, untapped market of Conservative dollars for conservative films, there is little chance that Hollywood (in its current incarnation) is ever going to feel the need to tap into those dollars.

So too is the United States the most incompetent imperialistic super-power in the history of the world! So incredibly devious as to manuever the entire world into a situation where all challengers to U.S. power have been laid low, but led by such bumbling fools as to be unable to quash an insurgency consisting of a few rag-tag freedom fighters in one of it’s future client states.

Is the entire LLL movement madeup up of nothing more than extremely bipolar individuals who believe that both absolute ruthless genius AND total bumbling incompetence not only can, but actually DO exist in their perceived “enemies” (Bushitler and the U.S.)?

Does anyone believe that, if the U.S. was really as evil as portrayed in the rest of the world, we would have any trouble ending the “troubles” in Iraq? If we really didn’t care about people, didn’t care about torture, etc – would we actually purposely limit our actions in order to avoid civilian casualties? And do soto an extent never before seen in any nation, let alone an imperialistic one?

Sheesh!

it seems to me there is a profitable market for conservative themed movies, if they would just get the big budget and good actors to go with them.

As much as that side talks about evolution, they don’t seem to have a clue how it works.

Clue: That isn’t just a human trait, it is what successful species do.

If you don’t like us …. THEN SOLVE YOUR OWN PROBLEMS.

Sorry. I’m annoyed.

As Ted Nugent and the boys put it so succinctly back in 89/90:

… Crazy dictator down south of us, lost all control. He didn’t have time to see me, didn’t have time to thank me. Suck on the barrel of my hot shotgun, smile when you say Damn Yankee!

The Atlantic and the Pacific are going to protect us from the fanatical Islamic hordes for a long time. Meanwhile, the Muslim Borg has already started assimilating YOUR countries.

But call somebody else, mmm-kay? I don’t care anymore. Screw you people.

Maybe you can make a cartoon about it later, if it’s permitted under sharia law, you ungrateful dickweeds.

Professor Blather on June 21, 2007 at 12:07 PM

I’d like to see your entire post be read as an official US statement at the UN, Blather. Bolton might have been up to it, but now….

I see someone already beat me to the, “What, this isn’t a James Cameron film?” comment.

I cannot emphasize enough the importantance of encouraging any of your children that show a proclivity to the arts to make it their career.

ScottMcC on June 21, 2007 at 12:26 PM

Amen.

And what frustrates me most about the lack of conservative Hollywood films is that there is a VAST untapped market out there waiting to be plundered.

There are literally a hundred million people who would line up to see more films with a pro-American, conservative perspective. Heck, you can even be religious if you want: did “Passion of the Christ” not teach anybody anything?

There are billions to be made. Some conservative George Lucas type is out there, I hope. And he’s going to be very very rich someday.

Just hope he shows up soon. Not taking advantage of this obvious market demand is so … unconservative. Sheesh.

I mean, we have very recent history of what could be considered occupation, but we’re hardly the country that’s best known for wiping out entire indigenous populations with smallpox-laden blankets, are we?

…and this information should not be a shock to any of you.

The counterproductive bitching about how e-e-e-evil liberal Hollyweird doesn’t make any entertainment for you should be replaced with stories about how you don’t watch TV or go to movies anymore because you’ve found alternative entertainment from more politically-neutral (if not outright conservative) artists online.
