Americans may wonder, but the act remains that to much of the world,
especially the Third World, Hollywood DOES represent American culture
and values. Are you happy to have Hollywood representing you?

You mean, do all of those off the wall lunatic lefties represent
American values and culture? Rosie O'Donnell? Richard Gere? Ed Asner?
Not really.

Not Hollywood people, Hollywood product. More people world-wide know
about Rambo and the Terminator than about Ed Asner's politics.

You think there is something wrong with The Terminator? I thought it was a
great scifi flick. James Cameron may be an ass hole but he did make some
excellent movies.

The film's fine, although one could point to "Robocop" for a more sly
take on US culture.

of course but mostly becuse it was intended to be that.The Terminator was just
scifi story telling. There was no substantial attempt to comment on American
culture in The Terminator. That was the jist of Robocop.



In his case I'd rather have the world see the product and
not the person. By the way no one by the name of Hollywood told Cameron
what to
do when he made this movie.

Hollywood is a true US story...


Talk about getting a second chance in life. as a Rams fan from that era I
thought it was wierd for a Dallas Cowboy to call himself Hollywood.
