Other 196's:
Nazis. I hate Nazis.
Why do you always have to shove your far left ideology down peoples' throats?
Why did it have to be Nazis?
I like Ike. (Shame about that ones source There's like a skull shaped void in my Brian between movie 3 and 5.)
idk what you are talking about.
there are only 3 movies afaik.
One of favorite lines in the show Chuck from the 00s. A character has amnesia and is being reeducated on classic films. This character had, for reasons I can't recall, pissed off the person teaching him his cultural history and so was being told to watch only the BAD films in each franchise.
Anyway, at the resolution of this episode his media teacher forgives him and gives him the box set of Indiana Jones.
When asked "You're not hiding the good ones are you?"
His teacher becomes stone serious and responds. "There are only three."
I only watched it once, but It's forever burned Into my brain.
The last one wasn't that bad to be fair. Certainly wasn't anywhere near as bad as Crystal Skull with it's fucking monkey scene...
The time travel one? You're absolutely joking, that was so trashy. But yes, somehow still better than Crystal Skull, which I only remember for the interdimensional aliens
Poor Brian. I hope he gets his void filled to his liking.
When the original one was made, Nazism was so far outside the Overton window, it was the definition of something that could never be a legitimate opinion. Nazis were monsters, like ogres or something, and to be defeated by however much force it took
The woke agenda has been telling us that grinding bones to make bread is wrong, but there is a proud historical tradition of grinding the bones of children, and many people have been saying that eating bread made from ground up child bones has many nutritional benefits! In fact, there is a direct correlation between not grinding bones for bread, and decreasing IQs and male testosterone levels! In this video essay I will explore...
Is this not satire? The account is literally called "Insane Cope"
I hate how the Internet ruined satire. At one point you could read something and think "well that's obviously too stupid for a literate human to believe. What a clever way of pointing out the folly of man". Now you read a moronic opinion and it's like 60% likely to be real.
Sounds like the edited for tv version but for Republicans.
Honestly that wouldn’t fucking surprise me at this point.
Taking bets how long until we get a “USA version” of movies like they do in China.
You already do. It's a defoult one. You don't need edits in postproduction. Self-ceneorship occurese before even the first scene is shot.
Obvious example would be the assistance of the US army in making a movie, if the script was approved by Pentagon. But I bet you wouldn't have to look far for more.
I'll admit that, much as you're right, it takes even me (not American, painfully aware and annoyed by US propaganda) seeing it in the context of something else for it to be weird.
Like, nothing worse in The Wandering Earth or the Three Body Problem than in, say, Transformers, but it jumps at me more, which is messed up, because it means that it works even when you know it's there.
“The following movie has been edited for Nexstar & Sinclair broadcast networks.”
"Nazis, I [different voice] respect political differences"
Alternatively, "Nazis, I [deb]ate nazis"
There were no nazis in the original version of Indiana Jones, those were shoehorned in by liberals as an antifascist act of terrorism.
The Sound of Music originally had friendly ICE agents harmlessly pointing friendly weapons at bystanders, but the terrorist idealist anti racist liberals changed them to nazis. Granted that the change from ICE agents to nazis may seem a small thing, but experts have all agreed that ICE agents are more fascist than nazis, thus the move was declared antifascist.
Not really shoehorned in. Nazis are part of the story. Shoehorning would be seeing nazis and saying "Nazis. I hate nazis. Though not as much as I hate Huey Long, what a wannabe Hitler that guy is!".
Dude's name is @InsaneCope. Fits.
Not to mention all the anti-snake messaging they snuck in.
Anti-serpentism.
Underrated
I literally just finished a re-watch of Lost Ark a couple minutes ago, opened Lemmy and now I see this.
What's the one where the main bad guys are like a tribal iungle death cult? Temple of Doom? I don't remember nazis in that one; maybe that's all they saw.
Temple of Doom gets a lot of criticism for being racially insensitive, but it’s actually my favorite in the series because it highlights religious extremism and fascistic devotion to leaders/idols/deities of a religion that isn’t the religion held by the majority of the series’ audience (Christianity), and that subtly recontextualizes how the Nazis of the other movies were religious extremists with fascistic devotion to leaders/idols/deities that the average Christian viewer may not recognize as a derivative of their own religious views.
On a sidenote, what a lot of people see as racially insensitive in Temple of Doom almost exclusively applies to the villainous Thuggee cult and not to the Indian villagers. There is a bit of a “white savior” trope, but you could argue that Indy was well-fed enough to fight and reputable enough to get into Pankot Palace, unlike the famished villagers.

The Road to El Dorado is one of my favorite movies for basically the same reason.
I recently watched that one with my kids and holy crap it does such a good job of correctly contextualizing the conquistadors as savage villains (and also holy shit it's hilarious)
Yeah death cult was temple of Doom. Nazis was lost Ark
Last Crusade was also Nazis.
Dial of Destiny too. Which was...okay in the first half but went crazy in the second...
