How do you explain most movies pushing a Liberal agenda?
When is the last time you saw a good Dennis Miller movie?

It didn't take long for this thread to sink into ridiculous partisan bitch slapping.
"He hit me first."
"He hit me harder."
How about the fact that the pork barreling was wrong? American citizens are the real constituents, not special interests. Not Hollywood. Not the oil industry. Not Puerto Rican rum. It's wrong when Congress does that ****, no matter who they do it for. Lobbyists were all over that bill. That's wrong. That's a major part of the problem. Who gives a fat rat's ass who did it first and who got more? It's wrong. It's always wrong.

Like I said before, it's because they think movie audiences will pay to see it.
I don't know about most, but a large portion do. It's the screenwriters, the directors, and the actors. Conservatives can make film, but often times they are marred with one difficulty or another: can't get the big names, can't get the script right, can't get a decent director, can't get the funding. It's not necessarily doctrine so much as a self-sustained culture of Hollywood workers, but not really the executives.
Jeez, they say our tax structure makes businesses flee to other countries, and then get mad about tax benefits designed to prevent exactly that...
So, you admit that most Hollywood movies are pushing a Liberal agenda?
It's awful arrogant to suggest that movies with a Liberal lean will sell more tickets than movies with a Conservative lean.
No.
I admit that Hollywood executives make the kind of movies that Hollywood executives think audiences will pay to see.
Hollywood executives are quite arrogant in what they think movie audiences want.
What's scary is how often they are right.

Did you see, "Dave", or, "The American President"?
The execs control the purse strings.
Wow, how full of the Libbo agenda can a person be to think that only movies with a Leftist lean will draw audiences. :lamo
So you don't believe in free market capitalism... interesting.
LOL... you are the one saying that. No one else.
First, movies are quite profitible... and it is only you saying there is a liberal agenda. Therefore, by your view, liberal movies are big sellers.
Now, back to your wild conspiracies.

No I'm not. Samsmart is. Do try and keep up.
I'll wait on you. Clearly I did a hyper logic jump well beyond you.
Thirdly, it is not the fault of Hollywood executives that audiences seem to like what they like. Audiences, as a mass, tend to enjoy stories that are generally formulaic and what they are used to. Movie audiences want to go to movies to be entertained, not to be educated or enlightened. This is the sole function of the romantic comedy genre. So Hollywood executives are just providing a supply to what movie audiences demand.

They can come here, they just have to be unionized.Thats one "bussiness" I wouldn't have any problem with being off shored.
Actually off shored into the frigid waters of the North Atlantic.
Except movie stars are not necessarily the ones seeking out these tax breaks. Rather, it is the movie executives who are.
