When you go to the movies, you can’t watch without first getting some popcorns. Have you noticed how bad the movie theater popcorns is? It’s not worth the money you pay for it!

Well now it seems that the movies are becoming that bad as well. The price you pay to go to a movie is outrageous and movies aren’t as good anymore. They put more emphasis on the special effects and less on the storyline. Hollywood isn’t capable of coming up with new ideas of their own. Instead they rather remake a classic and they ended up destroying it in the process.

They’re too busy getting political, that they are neglecting the art of making good movies. Hollywood stars think they speak for Middle America. Well, I got news for them! They don’t speak for Middle America. What they want, most Americans don’t want.

Since movies are so badly made, movie theaters have created theaters to be like your home theater with surround sound. They now have recliners in the movie theaters. Is it because the movies have become sleepers, that they want people to be able to go to sleep while watching movies?

It’s been awhile since I have been to a movie, even seen a good movies. When you want to take a date out to the movie, it’s cheaper to take them out for dinner than to a movie. Plus, you’ll get your money worth.

I’m not a big Tom Cruise fan, because he has such a big ego, an ego as big as Texas. He can come across as a jerk. It has nothing to do with that he’s a Scientology. Look at how he treated his three ex-wives, Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes; or even his kids, especially his daughter with Katie Holmes. Let’s put it this way they are a lot happier without him.

Luckily, Mimi Rogers didn’t have any kids with Tom Cruise. Nicole Kidman adopted 2 kids with Tom Cruise; but once she married Keith Urban, they had kids of their own.

One thing I do have to give Tom Cruise credit for: when it comes to making movies, he focused on making good movies that people can enjoy, like Hollywood is supposed to do.

The reason you go to the movies is to escape the cares of the world. You want a chance to relax and to be entertained. Now instead you being propagandized with the subliminal messages in the movies.

I don’t know about you, but I prefer the older movies. They had better storylines. Sure they didn’t have the special effects; but they don’t make the movies.

I liked the original Planet of the Apes movies better than the remake; because of the storyline, the special effects just ruined the movies for me.

Hollywood recently remade the old John Wayne movie, Rio Grande, starring Jeff Bridges. Let’s put it this way, John Wayne is the king of all Westerns. Jeff Bridges is a good actor but he should had known better than to remake a John Wayne movie, being that he was from that generation and so was his father.

The movie, “The Star is Born was made at least 4 times. I don’t know much about the first one. The second one starred Judy Garland; but I have to admit the third one was the one starring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson. Now I’m not a big fan of Barbra Streisand. Maybe because that version was more in my lifetime.

To this day, I haven’t yet seen the movie, “The Titanic” by James Cameron and starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The reason for not seeing it was because that movie was a remake, just told differently. Why ruin a good thing?

Don’t get wrong, there are some good movies out there. I loved the movie, “The Help.” Even though it was based during the Civil Rights movement of the ’60’s, it was more than just racial discrimination. It was about the differences between the rich and the poor. A person can easily relate to that movie today. It should had won an Oscar.

I loved the movie, “Lord of the Rings.” It did win an Oscar for Best Picture. It was filmed in New Zealand and the director Peter Jackson took advantage of the beautiful scenery in making the movie. He kept it real to the book as well.

There’s one movie I loved as a child and that was the movie, “ET”. I cried during that movie. Once again it was the storyline not the special effects. I hope that Hollywood doesn’t remake that movie.

Most recently Hollywood is remaking the movie, “Little Mermaid.” They have changed it from animation to live action. They’re ruining that movie by going Woke with it.

I can’t believe I wanted to go to Hollywood, California when I was younger. I’m glad that I never made it out there. Hollywood has gone downhill. They have gone Woke and pure crazy with their Leftist views they’re trying to push on the rest of America.

When it comes to making movies, Hollywood isn’t coming up with new ideas and new stories. Instead they are choosing to remake old movies, and ended up ruining them instead. They rather tell the rest of America how to live rather than make good movies we can actually enjoy.

Old Hollywood is dead and gone! Hollywood stars of today cannot fill the shoes of the old Hollywood legend.

I know that I’m going to get criticized for this blog. Not only by Hollywood but also by those who still sees nothing wrong with movies today. They thinks that special effects is the answers to making a good movie. If you don’t have a good story, what good is the special effects?

Hollywood needs to stop going Woke and start making movies that will entertain us. Especially with the high cost of movies and popcorn.

We go to the movies to escape the cares of the world. We don’t want to be preached to their way of thinking.
