In Reply to: "Can I at least avoid POLITICAL movies?" - Sure, but The Illusionist isn't a political movie by any stretch. posted by Audiophilander on September 8, 2006 at 00:27:43:
They can star in anything they want, and it should be shown in theaters. I don't HAVE to see it, and if i don't, then i am not taking away their 'free speech' rights. Just like they don't have to see conservative movies if they don't want. 'Not listening' to someone is not taking away their right to rant and rave. I haven't condemned the movies they are in, just them as people. Studios should release whatever movies they want(within reason of course) and the viewers will decide what they like and dislike. But if a movie does poorly, you can't blame the viewer. If someone makes a flick about Moses or Bush Sr. or whoever and people just don't go, I won't scream that the studio and actors right to free speech are being shunned, i would think the public just has no interest in it. If the movie was made and the public had the right to see it and simply didn't, then the system works. The Blake and OJ examples are good so add those to my Hussein analogy(and I certainly think Saddam would fall under "they've done things or are perceived as having done things that are unacceptable in society". You gotta admit that Penn is a pretty good actor, some people don't though. They have to look past 'spicoli' which he did a good job at for what it was. Although Martin Sheen probably played himself when he was the crooked unhinged politician in Dead Zone. That part was made to order for him, so I can still easily watch him as 'Greg Stilson'.
