My dad loves to say “I hate how political movies are now”, and I’m just like “How many movies have you made me sit through over the years where the main takeaway is ‘The US military and government and all of their policies are awesome and correct.’”
I mean… it’s actually kind of disturbing how many there are, The green Berets, Top Gun, Transformers, Black hawk down, some grey area ones like saving private ryan and similar.
Of course, you’d get the other side of the coin with say movies like rambo, apacalypse now Born on the fourth of july etc…

Oh, you mean things that are unironically used as pro-America media by people that have 0 ability to see a political message? The same people that told RATM that they were good before they became political in 2016 (lmao)
For how much conservatives hate anything LGBTQ showing up in movies, it’s weird that they love Top Gun so much. That movie is probably the most homosexual piece of media I’ve ever had to witness, and I’ve enjoyed quite a bit of gay porn in my days.

Don’t forget how many republican candidates that would play “born in the USA” as a patriotic song
Just saw Rambo for the first time. Sylvester Stallone was so good in that PTSD scene at the end.
Then it was First Blood.
Didn’t the first(?) (The one where the main guy finds Bumblebee) movie have the government as the secondary bad guys?
And where has that mentality been since?
Not sure. It’s been a while since I watched a transformers movie.
Also the Dick Wolf copagenda universe.
I actually liked when Stabler was on SVU way back when - the name being at complete odds with the character’s personality alone was pure genius.
