do you enjoy seeing, whether it be subtle or not so subtle, messages relating to politics or matters of opinion? Even if its a movie that really doesn't need one and does nothing to enhance the story or plot of the movie, maybe has no business being apart of the movie at all.

other than some political message the people making the movie are trying to rely or force upon the viewer?



Regardless of if the movie is bad or not, (maybe it contributes to its effect) Do yall enjoy that in a movie?


If u need examples , I can provide

I like it prevents an idea from a new or interesting perspective

But if it's just shameless plugs or pounding us over the head with an old idea (like 'pollution bad') then no

Second this.


Seems like it's mostly just absolute fucking nutjobs who read into this shit wayyyyy too much. OMG, a GAY COUPLE, THEY'RE TRYING TO PUSH AN AGENDA!!!!!!! Or, you know, like 5% of the population is gay, so you're bound to see gay people from time to time and it's not a big deal....


Like Kayeto said though as well, if it's a shameless plug and they're clearly pushing an agenda that has nothing to do with anything, it gets old and annoying real quick.

Think it depends. If the movie is horrible you start focusing on other things, but that is generally because of how much of a failure the movie is not because they were pushing an agenda.

You said it though, that's not the movie pushing an agenda, it's the fan picking something and choosing to be upset over it. You see the occasional rage post here from people complaining about agendas being pushed and it's ALWAYS some right wing nutjob who's upset about the most inconsequential shit ever. If you're that easily offended, don't go to the theater, or stick to VeggieTales, pretty simple formula. Nothing wrong with being religious or conservative, but there's something seriously wrong with people who can't set their politics/religion aside for two hours to judge something without letting insane bullshit ruin it for them.
