Do people in Hollywood sit and ask each other "For whom did you vote in the last election?" or they ask questions along the lines of "Will you help this project put a$$es in seats?"

Do you really believe Hollywood does not consider the politics of the movies before they make them? How many anti-war movies have they made in the last few years and yet most of them, if not all of them, have tanked at the box office. If you do not think there is a political agenda at play, look at it this way: We've been fighting the war against terror for eight years. How many quality movies have they made about our war efforts? How about zero! Coincidence? I think not. We can make movies about fighting and killing machines, bugs, nazis, etc. , but not about the real enemy. Why is that?

If you do not think Hollywood monitors the politics of their stars, etc. you're kidding yourself. It's like the 30's and 40's all over again except there are no formal trials, and the political persuasion is blowing from a different direction.

In regards to Mr. Moore, I regard his films as a combination of self-promotion, political paranoia, and anti-authoritarian populism

Siggy ...Please. Save us all the goobly gook and call Moore's BS what it is ...very left wing movies.
I'm not conflating liberalism with anything. I'm simply stating that you accused JW74 of saying Matt Damon was socialistic when in fact he did not use the term, socialistic, until
after you use the term.
