Smith you are 29, and a movie that came out when you were 9 is tired and worn out? Had you seen a lot of films based on race issues by the 5th grade? Jaded.....tsk tsk.

I was just referring to the concept in general. I've noticed most of his movies have the same underlying 'theme.'

do you ever add "in my opinion" or "to me" to any of your statements or do you always speak in absolutes?

Rarely. As a general rule, the words serve little or no purpose.

Yeah, that old 'comicbook superhero on the big screen with complicated love life and kewl CGI effects' is waaaaaay over done.

Oh...Spike Lee? I thought we were talking about.....

Nevermind.

Let's keep in mind here that we are talking about the alternate reality of Hollywood. Spike Lee has succeeded in part, BECAUSE he is black. Eastwood has done it, DESPITE being a Republican.

Yes, Little Penny was indeed. Did you recognize his voice, kittin? Chris Rock

What if he had dismissed Lee as simply an "angry black man."

That answer's easy....Clint would have instantly been laballed a racist and made to take 'sensitivity training.'

"Registered Republican" is what they look at, Level.

Look what it did to Ted Nugent's career. Stranglehold doesn't get much airplay anymore, at least around these parts.

It's just the opposite here; they let the Nuge rip on a regular basis, but good luck trying to find a Dixie Chick tune (some might say that's a good thing )

*Waves back, Level* And I love both the Chicks and the Nuge, btw. Politics be damned. They can all play the hell out of their respective instruments.........luci

I'm definitely a bigger Nugent fan, but I like a few of the Chicks tunes; even if I didn't, I hate that they get blackballed.

I suspect that wherever 'here' is, they play off the same ClearChannel computerized list as everywhere else, and Ted's in as heavy rotation as any other dinosaur rocker.

All that switching from being a proud draft dodger to a patriotic warrior did, was to boost sales of his books, and ratings of his TV shows.

And the myth of the poor starving Dixie Chicks is even sillier... they did so well in CD sales and such apres the Bushslap that they were spared the embarrassment of having to do another Stevie Nicks' cover.

Hey now. Easy fellas. Free for all will forever be one of my favorite songs. Ted rocks, no matter how he votes.

Alumbrado, just 50 cents a day will help keep Natalie Maines in Cheetos.
