        Yet they’ll still do incredibly well because the movie makers can launder money through churches, tax free, to buy all available tickets to give out for free to the church congregations. This then makes the movie appear to be better and more popular than it really is.

        You can’t criticize the movie without criticizing the message. If you criticize the message you’re not on their team. Not conforming to the team is a bannable offense.

          It’s easy, when script writing is worse than a high school play, they’re either over filtered to look cinematic or feel like they just filmed it and cut it together. I’ve seen better acting in b grade porn than anything I’ve seen in one of those movies, the sounds terrible like they’ve used the in camera mics on scenes.

          See I criticized the movie without criticizing the message.

          No they won’t. Because the message in their movies is always racist or bigot shit.

              O’ thy father who art in heaven, help us! The mermaids are black!

              Come back to me when movies feature songs like “What Makes The Red Man Red” again.

              Unfortunately, both of these examples are Disney.

                    Well in barbie the Ken’s are second class citizens subservient to the barbies. Ken finds out it doesn’t have to be that way and trys to revolt. Barbie takes back control and Ken’s are back to being subservient and it’s apparently a popular movie.

                    I am talking about the majority of TV and movies in general and the way men are portrayed
