I'm stunned that America didn't choke to death on the collective heaps of socialism being shoved down their throats by Frank Capra 80 years ago.

It always has been, yo. Older stuff doesn't hit because we were too young to understand the context of it all.
Are you saying this is why older stuff sucks?

I think the bizarrely over-the-top reaction to The Last Jedi shows that maybe the people and their politics have changed, not the industry (except that more minorities get jobs).

we're horror fans. horror, as a genre of film, has pretty much always been political in one way or another. horror has pretty much always tried to push buttons and challenge it's viewers. it's weird to see this argument, all the time, recently.

and then you'll turn around and criticize other people for doing the same thing, about some movie that you like. :P
