If You Didn’t Like the Series You Must Be a Bigot
Stephanie Hamill newsbusters.org Not a fan of the new Lord of the Rings TV series? Well then, you might just be a racist or a bigot according to some on the left. Apparently, you can’t give an honest review about Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The
Kids Movies Are All Sweetness & Light?
Anyone who’s ever read the Brothers Grimm or Hans Christian Andersen in the original will know just how dark these stories really are, compared to the sanitised, Disney versions we’re fed today. Heads are chopped off, Cinderella’s stepsisters mutilate their own feet and are blinded by the
What Happened to the Other Side of the Story?
I’m sure I wasn’t the only one to watch the attack mockumentary ‘Fire and Fury’ released by Stuff. It was bad enough in the way they portrayed the individuals in it without then finding out that it had been funded by the taxpayers. Their deliberate omission of the
Swarbrick Eying Major Movie Role?
Kay O’Lacey wokejoke.nz Warning Satire Shameless self-promoter Chlöe Swarbrick, the youngest and greenist (like green with envy) MP, perhaps in the history of the World, is said to have been tapped for the leading role in a new movie, rumoured to be a prequel to the Mad
Why the Left Hate a Hit Rom-Com
As we all know, if the left didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any. The same people who’ve belted us over the heads with what Ben Shapiro dubs Prime Time Propaganda for decades lose their minds when a movie or TV show dares even hint at
Walt Disney Would Not Approve
Sebastian James mercatornet.com Sebastian James is a Sydney journalist. Although I enjoyed Dr Strange: Into the Multiverse of Madness, I was disconcerted. Some aspects of wokism don’t concern me. However, one of the new Marvel superheroes introduced in this instalment of Dr Strange has two mums. Eternals, released
How Some of the Greatest Movies Were Panned
The often stark divide between audiences and critics has become a meme of its own in the era of review aggregator sites like Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. Hollywoke has only made things worse for itself, churning out a wave of intersectional sludge that panders to the sort of coastal elite
Is Hollywood’s Love Affair With Islam Over?
I know we at The BFD like to mock them, but spare some pity for the poor, progressive left. I mean, it can’t be easy, spending your every waking moment trying to figure out who’s the biggest victim in any given social interaction. It must be a lifetime
Hollywood’s Love Affair With China Falters
As Ricky Gervais so brutally reminded the 2020 Golden Globe audience, Hollywood talks a big game about ‘progressivism’ and human rights, but they’re perfectly happy to jump in bed with the world’s worst people if the money’s right. For years, Hollywood had an unspoken rule of not
150 Years of Innovation in Film
Cinema was perhaps the dominant art form of the 20th century. Its only serious rival was music, until it was overtaken in this early 21st century by videogames. Invented in the late 19th century, cinema quickly became a massive popular entertainment in the period between the early short films of
Please Celebrities, Put a Sock in It
Should actors and singers be forcibly gagged, off-stage and off-set, and have all their devices confiscated? Because these over-paid, under-educated, group-thinking ninnies are doing their own employers a disfavour every time they open their gobs and say anything that wasn’t scripted for them. Let’
In Praise of Staying in Her Lane
Actors entire existence is predicated on parroting other peoples’ words and faking emotions. They also tend not to be terribly intelligent or well educated. Seriously, check the CVs of most actors: they’re generally lucky to have finished even the softest of degrees. Most of them flunked out of even
Big Splash in a Shallow Puddle
Back when broadband internet was still pretty snazzy, Dr David Thorpe was easily the best music critic around. By “best”, I mean, the most acerbic and intolerant of the sort of stuff that is inexplicably popular with supposed music cognoscenti (the execrable Tool were deservedly one of his favourite targets)
