    A link? What you want my AA email to me at my employment?


    I don’t think Indiana Jones is going down as a flop. It was expensive to make and needs a long viewing cycle to make a profit but it’s still tops for the month. But just wait Mission Impossible will blow all these movie away

    This is what happens when the left sees others as enemies. Even when it is something we SHOULD agree on, they take the opposite stance. However, as many of us know, the left will defend anything, even the most despicable things, so long as it attacks their enemies on the right.

    Relative to its budget - yes, its a flop

    It isn't that Sound of Freedom is a bigger hit - that is completely untrue. However, it is a low budget film and thus will be profitable.

    Yeah flop

    Cost 295 million you make. The opening week is the biggest week. They need to make more than they didn't on it.
    It's a flop.

    If the movies loses money it's a flop

    I would not have suggested it had I not seen / heard such uttered by the left media and Hollywood. Some in Hollywood suggested he’d never again star in a major Hollywood movie after his role in the Mel Gibson movie.

    Ok. But more people are going to see it than they are any other movie currently out.

    Didn’t you watch Person of Interest?

    A sooper secret communication from a source you cannot disclose or identify. Kinda like Vice - the only "media" outlet to run the story. Got it.

    I've read the entire thing. There's literally nothing tying this movie to qanon, the right, etc.

    The author makes zero connection....literally nothing.

    Feel free to quote the parts of the article that actually link this movie in any way to anything RW extreme/qanon.....I'll wait.

    That article was nothing more than the author wanting to fling as much hate at the right as possible regardless of whether or not there was actually anything to back it up.

    So what really do we have? Just lefties hating a movie that's against child trafficking.....which again, is right in line with the positions they've taken.

    Why wouod anyone be AGAINST exposing child trafficking? It’s like those defending Pedos who are about to make a move on a child and then the kid whips out her badge, the cameras all pop out and he yells “I wasn't going to do anything!!!!”

    & OUR fired the party who advised them it did exist. You - like Vice - have your knickers in a twist over very little.
