Vice Principals (2016)
In REALLY bad taste but LOL funny
I know a lot of folks may find this show offensive but lets get real for a minute, this is a LOL COMEDY show, loads of bad taste, that's the whole point you morons.
Forget the critics, this is a great LOL funny non PC show. I've heard the critics say it's too mean and just because the main victim is Black, it seems much closer to reality than most of white middle class America feels comfortable with.
The point is the two protagonists are loosers,greedy and stupid but still think they are "entitled" to be the boss has a lot more truth than most Bubbas like to admit.
Apocalypse Now (1979)
A Visual and Audio Masterpiece
A brilliant piece of film making that shows just one thin fictional slice of that disaster.
Most Vietnam Vets I have talked to either loved it or hated it depending on their personal experiences and their IQ.
This film is a not a documentary but it captures the total insanity of that war. Too bad we learned NOTHING from that disaster,we will never see a film of this quality about Iraq, we can't handle the truth and even worse we can't find the truth, The "lefty" NY Times and The Washington Post both waved the flag and printed Dubya's propaganda BS instead of doing their job, both papers broke the juicy Monica story yet were asleep at the wheel after 9-11 when we needed them the most.
Wonder where your well paid middle class job went ?? you morons voted for divisive sound bytes and racism, don't blame the Mexicans or the Welfare Queens, your real enemy is Wall Street and the Whores in Washington.
The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash (1978)
The First Rockumentary, brilliant, especially the music
This is not for the younger crowd (unless you are a big Beatle Fan) a very,VERY funny but affectionate spoof of Beatlemania insanity, it's not an actual spoof of the Beatles in fact it pays homage to their enormous talent, just the sleazy side of the music biz.
The video and a lot of the jokes are a bit dated but although the costumes and re-creations of the original merchandise are really good the best thing about this parody is the AMAZING music, Neil Innes sounds just like John Lennon and their original songs sound exactly like the Beatles. The lyrics are hysterically funny and I think Lennon gets the worst of the ribbing especially on songs like "Cheese & Onions". George Harrison fully backed the project & makes a few small appearances and put up a lot of his own money to back the project.
I used to play Rutles tracks at parties and night clubs and people thought they were bootleg or unreleased songs, I mean they really liked them.
Elysium (2013)
A solid plot extrapolating the wealth divide
The premise is good, jut like the gated communities of our current wealthy and 1% (delusional) wannabees wealthy parasites only this time they have left earth to a space- station that reminds me of South Beach or Malibu, perfect people living in an off-world paradise, meanwhile the "Serfs" are left behind on a toxic Earth.
US "Serfs" are the 99% who have seen their share of "The American Dream" become just a nightmare liability not because of our lack of skills or work ethic, because our own Corporate and Financial leaders (once the backbone of our Nations success)have stabbed us in the back for short term profits.
Haw much tax do you pay ?? GE has paid NO tax in 20+ years, who do you think pays their share ?? look in the mirror moron.
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013)
Complete garbage, does not even appeal to the 14-25 Demo
Unless you were around for the politically ugly 70's and even more ugly 80's & the malignant TV News transition from actual news to "entertainment" for ADD retards you just won't "get" Anchorman 2, the first one had some good scenes as does this POS.
If you have half a brain get just watch "Network" a much funnier, less pretentious, more "on-target" movie, the absolute decline in Network News is not just a recent thing, it started when the Oil Companies and US Conglomerates started taking over the TV Networks & the whole entertainment business to use as a tax shelter to hide their obscene profits from the phony 1972 Oil Crisis, this was the start of the war on the middle class & working poor God-forbid they actually pay taxes based on a clandestine windfall profits GE has not paid a single dollar in corporate taxes for over 30 years despite making $Billions in profit while our middle class has been bled dry supporting 2 bogus wars at one $ Trillion a year for 9 years, wonder why Obama the Oreo kept these horror shows going ?? look who provides the re-election $$ The "Defense" Industry think there is ANY difference between the Dems and Republicans ?? you must be an idiot. Go and see the Hobbit abortion.
BTW Ironically some of the best music and Journalism was also produced during that period, sad to say the bean counters won, TV is a joke and Newspapers (our last line of defense) have been bankrupted.
