Why did people get so mad about this?

>>82139469
Because it's true and they don't have an argument so they get mad. The only thing Chris did wrong was reveal his power level.

>>82139469

Because saying that is a code word for saying that jews are overrepresented

Because one Roadhouse equals hundreds of "Trying to make it in NYC" movies.

>>82139469
Because they don't. When they say they are for the little guy, they look like they are either fake or they are virtue signaling to cover up something.

Not to mention California is so left now it is ridiculous.

>>82139576

It's not limited to movies. America's notions about race are absurd. The idea that some fifth generation coal miner educated at his local Quick-E-Mart is somehow more privileged than some suburban professional make-up unboxer because he and some billionaire plutocrats happen to share a penis and a lack of melanin is beyond retarded.
Oh, no. You can't make fun of Tyrone! he doesn't know any better because of poor inner city education, but man isn't Stucky a privileged white piece of shit? He dropped out of high school to save the family farm and now he has somewhat uninformed opinions. I am white and I work in the media and man do I hate people like Stucky.

Luxury jets are super expensive but my psychic Mirijamph promised me if I fly her family to my new compound in Aruba and get her my tax ID #'s I could get Evander Holyfield as my boxing coach! (Long story) things are good I guess. I played catch with Peyton Manning and Papa John just the other night... oh that reminds me... I'm probably getting my own pizza flavor if we can just figure out how to grind up diamonds into an edible powder. And other than that pretty normal day to day same old same old. Oh...

A fact you say, explain to me what is representing the average blue collar, since I am a blue collar worker I'd like to know how I am not being represented in cinema.

Because they want to continue the myth that blue-collar white people are actually as "privileged" as the Hollywood elites (who actively despise them and mock their values).

Because they don't want to give any ground in the idea that maybe not all whites are rich elites or that we shouldn't hate them and blame them for everything.

Trump wins
Hollywood and liberals blame the "dumb and poor rednecks" for winning the election.
Pratt says Hollywood doesn't respect blue collar workers (aka white males/rednecks). Hollywood gets butthurt.

So what is it?

>>82147747
Because if they don't they will be blacklisted by Hollywood. Look what happened to Mel Gibson after the Jew thing.

There's nothing "racebaiting" about Fences, if you haven't watched it that's fine, but don't go around tagging stuff that you haven't seen. Loving having a race-oriented theme doesn't change the fact that it's about blue-collar people all the way through, they are not mutually exclusive themes at all.

Paterson stars Adam Driver and was produced by Amazon Studios, which is managed by hollywood royalty and already has two oscars under their belt. It's thoroughly related to the industry and it's about blue-collar characters, the inclusion is perfectly valid.

well shit

Hollywood has a very limited range of character:
> The white american ubermensh, tall, strong, charismatic... Generally main character, comes with a lot of quips nowdays to seem less obnoxious.
> The "strong wymen who don't need no man" character with no personality and still ends up in main character's bed
> Weak looking californian nerds/hispters men for comic relief. Used to be jews from New York.
> Modern Charles Ingalls with ridiculously outdated set of values but a "good heart", walking insults for anyone living in rural areas.

And that's pretty much it. Blue collar is a thing of the past, everyone works behind a desk in movies.

damn

he really knows what he is talking about

usually I don't listen to millionaire celebrities because they are all libcucks but this one agrees with my point of view, so I think we should listen to him

>>82142336

Jews are a vanishingly small portion of the population yet the credits of the average Hollywood movie read like a memorial plaque at a Holocaust museum

he's trivializing an issue people take seriously. Nothing to do with the literal meaning of what he's saying. That's also why he apologized.

Sweet, retarded, summer child of mine.

The USA has a long history of far left radicalism, don't believe me then spend some time reading about the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s, in depth. You 20 year old good for nothing buncha cock munchers wouldn't be able to name a single radical student movement from the 60s if your life depended on it, you wouldn't be able to name a CURRENT one either, nor draw paralels between them... and yet you are EXPERTS on politics.

I wish they enforced the 18+ only.

>>82139469

I don't think Pratt was talking about a lack of blue-collar movies in Hollywood. Not enough movies about firemen or plumbers or truck drivers.

I think he was talking about a lack of blue-collar values, middle America values.

Values like that can be in space movies, fantasy movies, romance movies, whatever.

It's not the costumes or the setting he's talking about. It's the philosophies.

What's blue collar values?

>>82148924

I think there is a philosophical difference in small town america and communism.

While unions obviously lead to similar ideas, our society has always been hybridized because of relationship between the tycoons/workers(Pullman strike, most of the other disastrous clashes between Pinkertons(who eventually became the FBI) and the workers that would later form unions.) You're equating large swaths of the things ironically in same way Pratt did and he isn't wrong about the disconnect, and he wouldn't have said it if he really was sorry for how he went about it. It's just the thing to do is apologize to cover your ass even if you did mean it. He made a joke about it when he was doing the press tour for jurassic world. You're also conflating people's emotions about the subject into expertise as if that ever stopped anyone from doing anything.

You can make a trenchant analysis with limited information, you just generally get better theory with more information which is why scientists are constantly testing proven science as a baseline.

I think some of the campus movements against animal testing and bombing science buildings don't exactly mesh with red and white scares in early twentieth century russia, so even your allegories are at best refuting shadows that you're not even sure about.

Pratt has a feeling based on what he's involved with in industry and since era of big tent pole movies has risen, all other subjects have slowly been pushed to indies/festival movies.

You couldn't even get Forrest Gump made today.

hardwork, honesty, actual respect of rules and real equality, not gibsmedat equality but equality in the face of law, Hollywood for example loves to put criminals as victims while ignoring the ACTUAL victims, the working class that actually gets robbed, killed, murdered or raped by said criminals for example.

Behind every "poor misunderstood african-american" in prison there's an innocent blue-collar worker that got robbed of his belongings by said basketball-american.
