Hollyweird: Still Desperately Seeking Relevance

Sometimes just one line can sum up a whole project:

To underscore the heinousness of this crime, Morris (who’s famous for his dramatic reenactments), stages an ominously lit slo-mo shot of a Nerf football bouncing off a prison floor set to score (by Danny Elfman) usually saved for the last reel of a Halloween flick.

I not sure whether or not Nerf ball bombardment rises to the level of torture, but satire sure is taking a pounding.

Still, it will doubtless be a big hit amongst the usual suspects. All of which raises the question: are the folks convinced that the actions of a half-dozen chavscum are proof positive of the degeneracy of AmeriKKKa any relation to the ones jabbering about the 'vast majority of peace-loving Muslims' ?

I say there's more encouragement of violent sadism in the Koran than in all the US Army field manuals that have ever existed.

Quote Of The Day

I can’t imagine what it must be like to hold an ideology where Wal-Mart outrages me more than the slaughter of 600 people.

Libertas on Hollywood's Che crush.

Dissent Crushed!

Boo hoo! A brave independent thinker has been gagged by the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy:

But, faced with losing millions as the notoriously patriotic Hollywood film industry reacted against her vitriol, Cotillard claimed there had been a misunderstanding.

While it's always great to see a supposedly right-wing paper use a phrase like 'notoriously patriotic' unironically, if libs are claiming they're being oppressed by the right-wing atmosphere of Hollywood, there's nothing down for them.

Don’t Forget The Crusading Lawyer…

John Hawkins with a nice list of Hollyweird stereotypes. It’s the same in Britain, but with a few of our own, like the socially conservative character who turns out to be a pervert.
