What’s wrong with Hollywood? I could go on and on for hours about it, I am going to use Avatar as a prime example. Don’t get me wrong, it was good in some ways, and certainly visually stunning. But the political over tones were sickening. Also the fact that it was aimed at our youth almost guarantees that most of the people who watched it didn’t even comprehend the things that were backwards about the movie. Let me explain.

CAUTION: SPOILER INFORMATION IS INCLUDED IN THIS POST. IF YOU DON”T WANT TO KNOW THE PLOT GO WATCH THE MOVIE FIRST.

Alright, let’s take a step back from the enchanting jungle and CGI animals and look at this from a real life point of view. A couple things jump out at me right away. Number one, making it seem like one day there will be a magical way to escape reality and live in a fantasy world is not a cool thing to sell kids. Number two, making the American soldier into the bad guy is just wrong. Marine’s and other members of our military deserve our utmost respect and should always be portrayed as the ‘good guys’ because that is what they are. Period.

If you don’t think that Hollywood studios have a liberal agenda to push, then you need to wake up and smell the roses. I can name countless movies in the past ten years that were saturated with political statements and liberal over tones, it makes me sick. Now let me prove the fact that it’s political. If the people who made this movie didn’t hate the US military they could have easily made the soldiers Chinese or Russian or even make it like the United Nations or something. But no, they were clearly American whites with a few black guys sprinkled in. I didn’t see any of the soldiers who were of any other ethnic background. Now me personally I hate to EVER bring up race, but when the negativity is aimed at me I have to say something. I am an American and I believe that any time you choose to hyphenate your name (African-American, Latino-American) you are making the mistake of separating yourself from your fellow Americans. I mean if the goal is not to see people by their race then why constantly point out what race you are? But I digress. This is about Hollywood.

Like I said, I cold go on all day, but I am gonna try and give a ‘big picture’ type summary of what all is wrong with this movie and let you draw your own conclusions about how this relates to the rest of Hollywood. Fist of all there is the whole ‘escaping reality’ part. Like if your real life is messed up like the guys legs were messed up, you will someday be able to lay in some fancy machine and escape to a fantasy world that is actually real, not a video game.  Then to top it off, at the end he gets to lay under some voodoo tree and actually transfer his being into this ‘Avatar’ and leave his ‘evil white American’ body behind. Also, the amount of tree hugging going on in this movie was sickening. Yes we should respect nature, no we should not sacrifice great forests for some precious metal, but really, what were they trying to say? Do you not enjoy your running water? Do you not need electricity? Is civilization wrong? I am getting the point and missing the point at the same time.

Let me see if I can sum it up. Nature good, civilization bad. Jungle people good, American Military bad. Science good, Capitalism bad. They even named the mineral they were after ‘unobtainium’. Haha, so that means we should have known from the get go that they weren’t going to get the mother load? By the time the final fight came around I looked around the theater and it was clear that they had successfully brain washed the audience and had them rooting against the US military. Now if we could all just get it through our thick sculls that the American White Military Corporate Complex is the root of all evil life would magically fix itself right? No! The truth of the matter is that it’s the Rock Ribbed White Americans that made this country the greatest country ever. If America is so evil and bad then why are people all over the world trying to get in and very few trying to get out? Anyway, I will let it go at that. Just know this Hollywood, that we aren’t all asleep and you can’t pull the wool over everyones eyes. You can fool all of the people some of the time, and you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool ALL of the people ALL of the time. Oh and you can’t fool me ANY of the time!
