The Oscar Conspiracy
Read this before you move on with the rest of your day.
Let me cite the illustrious Dave:
This is on my mind since Scott’s post today that had me reading the internet’s silliest source of right-wing Stalinist film criticism (This dimwit actually thought “welcome to the suck” on a Jarhead poster was left-wing Hollywood trying to tell us the Marines suck. You just can’t make that shit up.), but man am I glad I don’t view aesthetic objects like that. Imagine watching a brilliant comedy like this and finding it necessary to furrow your brow and blather on about “Keaton’s disturbing pro-Confederacy message.” What a miserable existence.
Yes. Thank God.
