But let us be clear. This is the vehicle by which they are guaranteed to
force a lecture on feminism down your throat. This is the Trojan Horse
feminists and Hollywood leftists will use to (vainly) insist on the
trope women are equal to men in all things, including physique,
strength, and logic. And this is the subterfuge they will use to blur
the lines between masculinity and femininity, further ruining women for
men, and men for women.

You saved me $7. Thanks, Cap.
ReplyDeleteWell, at least "Fury" is fairly realistic, with only one "romance" of about a half hour (promptly followed by the deaths in a bombing attack of the two women); not any stuff about family back home (which deterred me from seeing "American Sniper"). Just war, and violence, and underplayed but still heroic death.
ReplyDelete"Fury" is almost as good as "The Dambusters", and that is high praise indeed.
Anon,
ReplyDeleteAgreed, it will likely be war and violence. I'm just seeing too many feminist and leftist signs that tells me I'm going to hear some snarky line or lecturing monologue of socialism that I refuse to pay for. And even if it doesn't prove to happen, Hollywood has to accept the fact their previous movies have led me to this fear and suspicion.

ReplyDeleteThis is a good factor in why I don't usuly see movies in theaters. I'd much rather wait to see if it's a feminist fuck-up before I go to the trouble of buying or renting it, and if it sucks, I can stop watching it without having wasted $10 on a movie ticket and God knows how much on popcorn and a drink.
ReplyDeleteI don't kwnow why they would bother with the subterfuge since their has been a string of female lead action movies come out and have seemed to do quite well?
ReplyDeleteFor a good recently released guy flick, check out "run all night." Stars Liam Neeson, sort of a "Road to perdition" remake, but still worth the watch.
You only need to see what a flop "Mars needs Moms" was to see that even kids are turning off. Movies like Frozen, Brave and tangled might do well (which feature no positive male characters), but that's because kids love musicals and cartoons in general. Movies that overplay the message get slammed.
ReplyDeleteI have a daughter now and I can guarantee I'll be vetting what she watches. I want her to be the best she can be, but not by thinking all men are either evil or stupid.
That Lucy film to me struck as the pinnacle of feminism: woman gets attacked by men, goes onto getting amazing powers that make her a goddess. It also flopped.
I don't watch much TV now, so I turn off the crap earlier than I used to. They can insult my intelligence, they can insult my gender, but they can't do both.
As an alternative to this claptrap I might recommend this for anyone in need of an 'Aussie Fix'.

Filmed mostly in the outback at around the same time period as the original Mad Max trilogy it has that uncanny 'Road Warrior-ish' look and feel.
It features a couple of 'villains' that would totally not be out of place in a Mad Max film.
It even stars one of the 'Road Warrior' cast (I think)!
Remember that girl that the gyro pilot hooked up with?
Good too seeing guys wising up to how crappy move have become. Day time TV has been a cesspool for a long time. I've not even had a TV for 15 years. I've walked out of many movies, just could not stand the gynocentric garbage.
ReplyDeleteThere is something happening, some of main stream media is very aware how alienated guys have become, they do know about MGTOW and Roosh etc. This does not mean they know what they will do.
Next and this is even bigger, many forms of media are dying, TV radio, billboards, Mags and more all are being displaced in mass by the internet. Many main stream media outlets will not survive this. Remember the internet is only about 20 years old and really its just getting started. Retail giants like Sears, JCPenny, Kmart even Walmart are will go bankrupt or survive by drastic restructuring.
You can see what is happening all around, just look. Going down the road - what are the passengers doing? Noses are looking at there smart phone. I was at New Port Beach Ca and notice even the bums were looking at there smart phones. The next day went to Bogota Colombia, even the street whores were looking at there smart phones, back to LA even the morons driving on the freeway were looking at there smart phones. There is a world wide revolution happening in media and its easy to see for those that look.
I was going to push the idea of seeing that movie in my circle of friends this weekend, but after your review, I am now going to thoroughly discourage that notion.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, I don't think I even want to bother with this film when it comes out on TV.
Congrats, Cappy, your article just cost them another $60 in ticket sales.
If you must go see a movie that's full of political, socialist, or feminist BS simply for the special effects then don't reward the idiots who made it by paying to see it. Buy tickets for another movie you do approve of that's showing at about the same time. Of course this won't help if the theater has assigned seats or its sold out.
ReplyDeleteLooks like someone noticed.
ReplyDeleteAs far as ruining the genders for each other, I think that's already been done for the most part.
ReplyDeleteI saw the movie, its true it has significant covert loathsome feminist/SWJ bullshit which many have already discussed.
ReplyDeleteWhen feminism takes hold the population collapses and civilization ceases to develop. The old feminist SWJ women out in the desert, there were only a few left. They did not build anything, in fact it appeared they had nothing. Every other population was larger and more developed, albeit in a weird Mad Max way.
Immortan Joe had created a religion and built a city. Immortan Joe had places for even handicapped individuals. Immortan Joe had what appeared to be a system based on merit and a larger religiously controlled slave class. There were no women in these groups. The women that were shown lived a life of luxury far beyond the rest of the populations. What was missing was the necessary numbers of women for the size of that city which was not explained.
The only action the old feminist/SWJ women actually did on there own was play a helpless victim apparently as a trap to rob others. Immortan Joe's larger religiously controlled slave class had plenty of toiling at the strange machines and many other weird activities.
It looks like in the end the feminist/SJW and Immortan Joe were fighting for control of the same thing, the golden uterus and the slaves servicing it.
You have rocks in your head if you think the rapists, slave owning, cult leader in this movie had any redeeming aspects at all.
Deletehuge fuckin rocks.
I just lost 45 (or 46) seconds to read a bad joke written by some Captain wearing a chocolate medal on his ugly sweat shirt.
ReplyDeleteI just saw this on HBO, and I'm really glad I didn't see it in the theater. By far the worst mad max movie.
ReplyDeleteThe best scene in the movie would have been watching macgyver destroy a tank with a machete, and a 5 gallon can of gas, but what do we get to watch? A bunch of women standing around not doing anything.
I'm glad I watched it though. It gave me the incite I lacked into what feminists want. The most privileged women in the mad max world aren't happy that they have to have value to the men who built the society. So they want the help of white knights everywhere to over throw the evil patriarchy, and then after all the hard work is done they want the white knights to leave so that they can start their own matriarchy.
