Magnificent Seven, the anti capitalist crap at the beginning...can't even do a western without it...

[2aguy]

It is also pretty amazing that Chris Pratt....goes from being the dumb doofus on Parks and Recreation...to one of the biggest stars in the country...in the biggest movies released in the last 2 years......

I don't go to movies. Haven't in years. I will not support liberal Hollywood. Fuck them.

The idea that somebody thought they could improve on this movie is absurd. The charisma and the music can't be repeated.
The original rock band...

That movie was " improved upon" before it was even made.

 

[Bush92]

So.....maybe the point was that as the VILLAIN he didn't know or care what capitalism really means.

No.....it was an anti-capitalism rant ........

How do you know that is what the director intended? Is there a quote somewhere of him making that claim?

He put it in his movie.....that's how you know........

You know your interpretation is what the director intended because "he put it in his movie"? You may be correct, but your reasoning is illogical.

For thinking people it is quite easy to figure out the intent of a movie through its symbology, verbiage, and narrative. It's a shame you lack the capacity to understand.

Did they open movie with a Hillary ad?

The 'original' was a remake of a better movie.

Look at what Hollywood did to the Bourne series and the Robert Ludlum books.

In the books, the antagonist was "the jackal." A muslim terrorist. In the movies, Hollywood turned the antagonist into cliche right wing Lilly white America. That, is the ENTIRE PROBLEM. Of course Matt Damon, all too willing to be a big part of that concept.

Avatar? Does that even need to be described? James Cameron does not even try to be subtle with his hatred for American capitalism as he makes windfall profits.

Typical shit.

I have the perfect way to remake all B movie westerns!

Replace the word "kill" with the word "Fuck"

"If you aint outta town before sundown, I'm gonna fuck you! We'll fuck your wife and kids, and we'll fuck your dog and all your cattle. No one can stop me from fucking!"

 

[hjmick]

This is the problem this country faces...the left pollutes everything with their anti American, Anti-capitalist messages......something the other socialists in Germany and Russia were trying to do...American socialists have achieved....

The movie starts out with the bad guy telling the farmers that he is going to essentially steal their land by paying them less than what it is worth...and if they don't sell, he kills them...and he does this in a church saying that capitalism is the new God and that is how capitalism works.....

Wow...the ignorance....

Capitalism is the FREE exchange of goods and services without government coercion ......what he did was called stealing, not capitalism....

And in a fucking western no less.....you can't even get away from the fucking asshole left in a western......

Overal...after that stupidity, the movie was okay.....no real character development but some nice cowboy action.......

Admittedly I have not yet seen the movie, but based on what I have read and the trailers I have seen, I would consider more a matter of Political Correctness. No way they could have used a band of Mexican bandits as the protagonists and not be called racists. Not in 2016.

Avatar was a crap movie, but I saw it more as a remake of Pocahontas or Dances with Wolves...

U.S. District Judge Margaret Morrow, who yesterday ruled in favor of director James Cameron in a lawsuit that alleged he stole the idea for his record-breaking blockbuster, “Avatar,” from plaintiff Gerald Morawski, revealed she came to her verdict after Cameron’s attorneys proved that the director actually stole the plot from Kevin Costner’s Oscar-winning film, “Dances with Wolves.”

“After seeing the evidence, I realized this lawsuit had no merit and that James Cameron is really just a lazy screenwriter,” Judge Morrow told Hollywood & Swine. “Someone needs to show ‘Avatar’ to Kevin Costner, because I think he may have a really good lawsuit.”

i don't watch stupid shit like that. I was a fan of Dr. Martin Luther King, seeing some of these dumbass remakes would be like seeing a movie about Dr. King with Tom Cruse playing King. LOL!

Funny thing about Patton was it was suppose to be an anti-war movie and it was actually suppose to make him look bad. I saw the making of it and it was pretty interesting.

Just looking for some evidence to support a claim. Is that too much to ask?

What I find amusing is you think that it takes an explicit declaration for something to be factual. .....

I didn't say that.

You didn't? What does this mean? Are you playing dumb, or ARE you dumb?

"How do you know that is what the director intended? Is there a quote somewhere of him making that claim?"

 

[EvilCat Breath]

I think the SJW did a good job on the Western action......lots of neat cowboy shooting and riding.....well choreagraphed...not enough time developing the comraderie among the 7 though.....but what can you do with a short movie.....

At that time there would have been no comraderie. An asian! A black guy palling with white guys. Tney would have all been hanged.

No, I didn't. The words you quoted were not intended to preclude any particular outcome, as I specifically said in succeeding posts.

Capitalism is the FREE exchange of goods and services without government coercion

No, capitalism is where the means of production, distribution and exchange are held in private hands.

 

[cnm]

Too, the FREE exchange of goods and services would appear to exclude the possibility of regulation.

and are exchanged freely between the private parties...

nope....the role of government in a capitalist system is to ensure no one is cheating....or harming the public...
