Friday, April 1, 2005 at 12:35 AM I was just on the fox website looking for the Point Pleasant site when I saw an ad for Volcano High... starring Snoop Doggy Dogg? Now I like Snoop as much as any celebrity I've never met and whatever, but I saw Volcano High last year and he wasn't in it, nigga don't even speak Korean.
The website seems to be openly recognising that this is a remake of a foreign movie, but why does Hollywood constantly remake foreign movies?
An exhaustive list would take hours to compile. Hollywood steals everything, just about every movie they make is an adaption of some existing piece of art, foreign or otherwise.
I suggested that Hollywood does this because the population of North America is of base intelligence. My brother suggested back that the government has a policy of creating dissent among the brotherhood of man in order to reinforce the military mindset. I mean, how are you going to shoot arabs and east-asians and south americans and africans if you see them as your fellow man? If you are laughing at a movie idol one day and have to shoot someone that looks just like him the next?
Regardless of the cause of it, the cultural imperialism of the USA is revolting and pathetic. It just stinks of propaganda and mental illness.
If movie making ever becomes cheap, which I suspect it should do any day now, people could make good movies everywhere. That would be nice. —MajandraFan |
