Hollywood Bad Guy

World leaders face off in the 80's.

In the 80's no one feared the US, they looked on them as meddling cowboys that believe their own movies ... nothing changed there but Soviet Russia was feared. Soviets were big and muscular with crew cuts and though they were drunk all the time they were still made of steel. A perfect villain for all the movies. Now the movie bad guy has become Arabs. Scary scary.

Movies and TV shows go to shape the perception of the public. They think one way then when years later someone does a movie with the bad guys as the heroes and someone else does a 10 facts you didn't know article and you realise you've been manipulated into thinking a certain way.

This post looks at the various villains throughout the movies not looking at monsters, sharks or anything weird that Syfi channel can think of.  A python genetically mixed with a hippopotamus. Meet the deadly the Pythopotamus!  It's fat and it hugs you to death.

Why do you never see a Pythopotamus in a tree? .... because it's sooo good at hiding.

From the very start in 1915 the movie Birth of a Nation had black people and abolitionists as the baddies. Only the KKK could restore order to the south after the civil war. Many of the black people were white actors with blackface acting aggressive, slow minded and wanting to rape all the white women .... ever wonder where whitey got that notion from?

Based on prejudice, white women who had a relationship with a black male obviously must have been raped when a wee brown baby comes along. Black people are often mistrusted and seen as the villain in real life even though it was them who were abducted from their homes and forced into slavery. It's been a difficult reputation to shake thanks to the centuries of disinformation and brainwashing.

Roots was one of the first TV series to show black people as being people rather than caricatures.   

 

Most Americans know fuck all about history so Hollywood has given them their own version. Another popular villain was the dirty red skin. The likes of John Ford fed us shite such as the Indians won't attack at night because if they get killed their souls will be lost in the dark .... um it'll be day in a few hours for fucks sake.
Injuns were heartless brutes that tortured people to death and occasionally raping them or abducting them. In real life the Indians did torture and kill .... but so did the white man.
In 1875 a raiding party of Arrapahoes lost one fighter to 3 white dudes they were stealing horses from. Even though he wouldn't have gotten killed if the Arrapahoes hadn't attacked them they wanted revenge. They talked it out and the man that fired the fatal shot was tortured with knifes and heated up arrow heads before being shot between the eyes and scalped. The other two managed to steal some horses and get away the next day.
This sounds exactly like any modern military unit that lost someone and has captives out in the field. In Saving Private Ryan they had this problem with a captive. I'm amazed it didn't happen all the time with the Injuns. They were going to torture a second whitey just for fun but their chief Lone Wolf (awkward name for today) stopped them. 

Indian tribes warred with each other and took slaves. When the truth about that asshole General Custer came out in various movies, also A man called Horse, Little Big Man, The legend of Walks as far woman and when Bury my heart at Wounded Knee was written the US got a conscience. A crying fake Indian in a commercial also helped then everyone claimed to be Cherokee all of a sudden.

Though not enough of a conscience to help the generations of Native Americans living in poverty on reservations. Treaties and rights still get broken and trampled but at least there are no grunting one dimensional Injuns except the ones we are supposed to laugh at like in that terrible Lone Ranger movie.        

If you live in the UK then you probably still think WWII is going on because you still see all the war movies. Germans shouting "swinehunt" and "Die Englander pig" and all an American or English soldier has to do is put on a uniform to fool the other Germans.

The Nazis were dicks, that is not in dispute and a million war movies can't be wrong. Then you get cockney Michael Cane or looney Tom Cruise as a German officers showing that some Germans (though fighting for the Nazis) were decent.

The Japanese also became the inhuman foil and if you know about the Bataan Death March you know what evil fanatics they really were. The stories about Hiroshima and Nagasaki have tempered our understanding and we do that whole, 'well you can't blame the people' thing but back then Japan was run like a cult, the Emperor being their god .... not one but it took two nukes.  
 

Hippy film makers tried to warn us that if we proceeded the way we are we'd destroy the world. We became the enemy sort of. The Apes were a little too human and did the exact same things as the humans they hated so much.  A reminder that we are just animals not really able to achieve much more than our own downfall and destruction.

We are clever enough just to fuck everything up. 

Vikings have been the bad guy. Hats with horns on them, drinking, laughing and eating chunks of meat. The sight of their sails would strike fear into the hearts of a Saxon peasant. They didn't have any personality they were just brash barbarians. Now we know they bathed more than most Europeans, bleached their hair and beards and traded slaves from the Mediterranean sea to the Baltic. They were pretty well traveled for their day.

Shows like Vikings has made them into heroes to be admired even though they are quite savage and brutal. You had to be to live in those times I suppose.

  
Rex Harrison put on blackface to play sexy rexy Saladin when the Saracens were the enemy. They were shown to be honorable and way smarter than the Crusaders especially when it came to medicine and yet the Crusaders were always the good guys.

The Crusaders were anti-semitic religious fanatics which is what we tend to cast everyone else as being. 

Richard the lion heart was a terrible King. He could barely speak English and only wanted war and glory, he left the running of England to his brother John, he never liked the cuntry anyways. The movies all have King John as being a tyrant but in reality he was holding the place together and wouldn't have demanded so much tax if his brother hadn't been waging an expensive war oh and being held prisoner for ransom.   

The legend of Robin Hood has hurt King John's image as much as Shakespeare did for Richard III's posture. "A horse a horse ... but one with wheelchair access"
 

More blackface with the Klingons. They were yer basic bad guy along with the Romulans. What is their motivation? To kill the good guys and take over of course. They looked like Genghis Khan and a Saracen with a touch of Satan thrown in. 

I don't know what Roddenberry had against Asians but the Romulans and inscrutable Vulcans were Asian like too. 

As Star Trek got popular the Klingons actually became a more fleshed out race of beings with their own language and history .... fuck some nerds are dull.       

 

Reds under the beds made sure that everyone knew we could be destroyed at any time by nukes. Yes those Soviets again. They hate everything soft and Amerikan. Why is it that Americans seem to rub everyone up the wrong way? Probably to do with being a shower of cunts or something.

Americans hate the thought of someone getting something for free so Communism really did scare them. What a crazy idea that everyone is equal and all having the same things .... the same iPhone, the same car, the same flat screen TV .... crazy. We demand the freedom to be permanently in debt!

War Games, The Falcon and the Snowman, Red Dawn had the unflinching commie while Little Nikita had River Phoenix showing you that Russians could be pretty and the good guy. Russia is no longer Communist but since 2008 and Obama they've been the bad guy again. 

Again we ourselves became the baddie but with zombies, vampires and werewolves being turned into the good guy as well. Hey I'm a tortured conflicted 300 year-old ex killer that hangs around schools, love me.  In the zombie or viral apocalyse it has become clear that humans are the biggest most deadly of threats..... big surprise there.

Bloody terrorists, remember when dog shit and terrorists were white? Ah the good old days, now you have bloody immigrants taking jobs away from good British and Irish terrorists. We want killed and the fuck bombed out of us for a United Ireland, not cos of Allan's will.




Brad Pitt and Richard Gere played IRA scumbags terrorists and even Michael Fassbender so they got a make over and abs too. The Troubles were started due to poor Catholic civil rights and soon became unjustifiable bloody atrocities on the Republican and the British side.



We still get shootings, bombs and riots but call it crime because admitting we had terrorists would suggest the peace process failed.

  
In Back to the future we had Libyan terrorists now you have shows like Homeland or 24 that have other more generic terrorists.  Terrorist has now become synonymous with being a Muslim thanks to American re-branding. 
The hero is obviously the white American soldier invading fighting for freedom by going to the Middle East and killing people whether they like it or not. The more you kill there the less there are faking passports and blowing you up with crock pots. 

It's funny how bad guys are turned into good guys by Hollywood and the effect that Hollywood has on the narrative of public perception. Even evil Terminator cyborgs are made into the good guy if he is popular enough. 
Marvel's Winter Soldier was a Soviet killing machine but it's alright cos he was brain washed then and only kills now if you know the code ... like that would fly in court. 

People of colour seem to have it worse than most, just ask an ethnic actor what roles they get offered and you'll see quite a lot of stereotyping even now.  The villains maybe just there for the hero to kill and to make him (usually him) look good. You aren't supposed to give them a second thought or even wonder how many fathers didn't come home after that Skywalker cunt blew up their base. 


Still, the movies do add to the bias of the public. I'm sure 300, Dracula Untold and American Sniper are all on the shelf of most deplorable Trump supporters that for some reason just enjoy seeing foreign raghead types getting killed.   

John Wayne Was A Big Leggy Racist

Marion Morrison otherwise known for his stage name John Wayne made the news last week. No he doesn't have a new movie out in which he plays an emotionally stunted hero that saves the day.

Republican State Assemblyman Matthew Harper sought to have the 26th May, the day Wayne was born made into John Wayne day. You have to walk as if yer trying to avoid yer butt plug from falling out, go all limp wristed, talk like yer having a stroke and be a bit of a cunt muffin.

The one note Oscar winning actor was a Republican, anti-commie draft dodger but is celebrated all over the US. Airports and schools are named after him. Why should he have his own day? James Stewart was way better and actually served in WWII .... shit even Henry Fonda who was older than Wayne served because he didn't want to pretend to be a soldier while others were actually doing it but Wayne in true Republican style had no problems with getting out of serving.

Remember, he only played at being a hero .... make believe. Heroes run into burning houses to rescue people or join up to go fight Nazis.

Clark Gable was 6 years older than Wayne, he was 40 when he joined as a photographer and aerial gunner. Hitler had a price on his head and wanted so badly to shoot him down as he was a fan.

   None of these guys served either though Trump feels like he did cos he played dress up like Wayne did. 

Republicans want to send yer kid to war while that dirty commie Sanders wants to send them to collage colledge college ... what the fuck?  

So giving the draft dodger his own day was shot down when his 1971 interview with Playboy was brought to light. He then turned into that crazy old racist uncle that you only see at Thanksgiving who always makes a dark meat comment and while he doesn't know any coloreds he is sure they are destroying the cuntry. 

 One of his playboy pictures cos naked weemen are just so faggy.

Wayne said, "I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people." 

That sounds fine, not like there are any irresponsible white people in positions of authority. Dennis Hastert was third to the presidency once and he was very responsible .... for making dirty land deals and molesting children that is. 

Wayne also slagged off Native Americans for not wanting to be invaded. They wanted the land for themselves the greedy injuns "selfishly trying to keep it for themselves" ... "I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them."

"The academic community has developed certain tests that determine whether the blacks are sufficiently equipped scholastically. But some blacks have tried to force the issue and enter college when they haven't passed the tests and don't have the requisite background."
They want to rape all the white weemen too! Wayne was very equipped scholastically .... well except when he failed to get into the naval academy and only got into the University of Southern Callyfornia on a football scholarship .... he had to leave after an injury stopped him from playing. So yeah college drop out, any issues going on there?

Nailed it. 

While he reckoned his lung cancer was from him smoking 6 packs a day his stomach cancer is thought to have come from making The Conqueror. Not only was it ranked as one of the worse films ever it was shot in Utah near to the nuclear bomb testing ground. 91 of the cast including the stars all got cancer at some time in their life but getting it for such a shite movie, could be seen as karma as it was terrible. 

  A tired and puffy looking Trump getting the endorsement of Wayne's daughter, if that is worth anything. 

Wayne would so fit in at Trump rallies punching the head of any black person there to protest. I bet he'd hate Muslims too.

Wayne won the best actor award in 1970 for True shit Grit in which he stretched his acting abilities to the limits to play a mean old man. He didn't think much of the Brilliant Midnight Cowboy getting the best picture award as those kind of movies are perverted, "Wouldn’t you say that the wonderful love of those two men in Midnight Cowboy, a story about two fags, qualifies?"

"I’ve directed two pictures and I gave the blacks their proper position. I had a black slave in The Alamo, and I had a correct number of blacks in The Green Berets."

I'm surprised he didn't mention the slopes or gooks. 

The Alamo ....  The Mexicans were the good guys fighting to keep THEIR cuntry together while the defenders who were illegal aliens were fighting for freedom, one of those freedoms was the right to keep slaves.

Wayne played the emotionally stunted hero that didn't save the day. David Crockett (no one called him Davey) was a congressman who failed at getting re-elected so thought he'd try a new start in Texas, he probably didn't wear a coon skinned hat either. It is now thought he survived the battle to be executed but that doesn't stop the tourist trap that is the current day Alamo from marking where he died fighting. 

The Alamo was a huge fortress but now it's marked as an old chapel that probably didn't see much of the action. Jim Bowie was a slave smuggler looking for a new life because he was wanted in other places for dodgy land deals. Colonel Travis was a lawyer avoiding prosecution for debts. So yeah, a bunch of twats.

You can spin history, misrepresent it and have a rosy recollection of who were heroes but we seem to find out eventually and as with the racist homophobe that is Marion Morrison yer werds often come back to hurt you so don't be a cock juggling thunder cunt.   

 

Ancient Black Ops

The Yesterday channel which is the UK version of the History channel pisses me off, maybe it's the slogan "Entertainment inspired by history" that does it, not sure. I've seen them advertising Ancient black ops which they say is a look as forces of old who were the equivalent of modern special forces.

Having served with special farces and being old I think I should have been at least a consultant for this show as I'm broke but ohhhh no.

Sure Persian assassins, even Japanese Ninjas could have been special forces but not the Vikings.

  Special forces do not have rape in their eyes. 

Being crazy, brutal and unpredictable does in no way make you black ops. They show clips of these black ops warriors and ya know what they are doing? Killing unarmed monks, that's what. 

The Vikings were more like US Marines who are good but not that special. Black ops are mostly done in secret, the monks and unarmed villagers being clueless does not make Viking attacks a secret. 

Look, a big fucking boat full of screaming bikers with axes ..... how fucking covert.  

No Ah Way Dude.

Have you seen the trailer for the new Russell Crowe movie Noah? It looks great doesn't it? Turning the fable of Noah into an action movie ..... fucking class, get me a Bible stat cos I wanna convert.

Noah is a story of someone who either hears voices or imagines something. After drinking a load of wine and lying naked in his tent he imagines that an invisible creature of great power intends to flood the world to punish people for behaving like people.
Of course it isn't really the whole world as the sand savages in the middle east didn't have a clue what was beyond the shire.

Don't worry Noah, for yer reward yer sons will turn ghey.

Noah built the ark and kept the door open for anyone that wanted to join his crew. No one wanted to surprisingly enough so only Noah, his wife, three sons and their wives ended up going, that's 8 people. The door was shut on the last day when the rains came and lo, the waters rose 2 feet and Noah said, "Crikey that's a bit embarrassing."

Many rushed the ark at the last moment so Noah and his sons had to open fire with the .50 cal machine guns given to them by the lord.

DIE! you sinful fucks.

How did Noah fit from 2 to 50 million animals onto the ark? Well, if you read the IKEA brochure you'll see that their furniture was inspired by the shelving systems found on Noah's ark.

40 days and 40 nights, can you rabbits keep it zipped for that long?

Noah was told to bring 7 pairs of some animals for eating or for sacrifice cos God was a god of blood and death..... and was very insecure if he demanded a show of faith from those he deemed to be uber faithful. 

None of the dinosaurs made it off the ark cos they were just too darned fucking tasty. It's kinda lucky that Noah's sons had married a black a nip and a cracker so all the human races would be preserved. 

Not to spoil the movie but just when you think that Tubal-cain is dead, he and his henchmen turn up and take the ark. All the sons are beaten and tied up and the weemen are threatened with rape. 

Only Noah is free to retake his boat. A message from god tells him to hold off on trying to free them all as 'we need the extra DNA' and well Noah liked to watch . All the cabins had peepholes. So on the 39th day Noah attacks with doves laden with explosives and and Lions hungry for flesh. Noah uses his Krav Maga on the evil Tubal-cain in what is one class fight scene in the rain ... like the end of Lethal weapon-ish. 

Crowe was great in the Man of steel movie in which he played the holy ghost but that film didn't inspire me to religion despise it's heavy handed overtones. This film with it's dramatic fight scenes and explosions now that gets Old Knudsen's attention. 

Does the chick from Harry Potter get them out? If she does then Old Knudsen may return to the church. It's just great that movie makers are targeting all of those who don't go to church, at least now they will know the true account of Christian mythology ..... no wait, Noah had to have been Jewish. AWW no! The fucking Jews run everything, Mel Gibson was right.
