SL>Willis's part was a bonified HERO...no ANTI about it...
GC> I'll take your word for it. To tell the truth I wasn't paying all that
GC> much attention. The movie wasn't doing anything for me...
He was fighting real bonified BAD GUYS too...
Although I have to admit neither the cops or the military
were exactly flattered by the film...
Also of note...???
The American president was (I think) the same fellow that appeared
with Willis in pulp fiction (as his antagonist)...Is there a
connection here...?
SL>What I think you guys are missing is the Roman Circus Element of
SL>modern entertainment...Much like declining Rome, our society offers
SL>little education and lots of spectacle in the hope that the masses
SL>will be distracted and ignore what the Powers that be are up to...
SL>(it works)...(for awhile anyway)...
GC> Poppycock. The people have NEVER BEFORE had such access to public
GC> officials and what they are doing.
Or less interest...It's just cable filler...the voter stats are
still declining...
GC> Now if we could just get a tv camera into EVERY court room and
GC> government office...
I'm for it...
SL>The V chip won't change that, it's basically a sound
SL>idea, but the market will subvert it rather than cater to it...
GC> Anything's possible, of course, but there sure isn't anything else out
GC> there with as much promise.
That's true...I don't really see any valid objection to it, other
than the simple objection to government intervention...which is
really a different issue all together...
