No American Flag on the moon

[tinfoil]

It is based on the book by James Hansen and he had a advisory role on the film.

Great boiling oceans, the James Hansen?

I didn't like it full stop, apart from Amiee Conn she's a 10!

I like both of the lead stars, so I took the time to watch it. I neither liked nor disliked it, in particular.

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

At least you liberals admit you care more about what the chinese think about the truth than you care what americans think about your lies.

Dude I did not make the movie. It's a multinational corporation, it does what it does to make money. Americans are infuriated though that they're no longer the only real source of money and so aren't exclusively pandered to anymore.

You apparently agree with it or you'd be whining about it like everything else. Own it, libtard.

Can I have a pack of American Spirit in the yellow pack?

Do you have a job? I'm wondering what kind of work you do. Probably a gas station clerk.

I don't agree with it, I just think this whiny thread is annoying.

People on this forum put every imaginable kind of shit in their posts that they can use to waste bandwidth.

All that's often missing is any kind of articulately expressed original thought.

It's like making a film about the battle for Iowa Jima ... and leaving out the flag raising.

Now, you are changing the story.


The thread title says "No American Flag on the Moon"

The Truth is that there ARE shots of the American flag in the film.

The honest poster would admit they made a mistake in their premise for the thread.
The OP probably read this premise on some wingnut website, and rushed over here to parrot it without double checking the facts.

Yet, here you are lol.

The America hating liberal Left, in an Orwellian rewrite of history, ... intentionally erased America from the moon landing.

Simple solution- dont watch the movie, cunt.

 

[Rusty Bell 65]

They may view it as 'Nationalistic', an American propaganda movie.

Another thing, Chinese companies are partnering with American companies to make movies nowadays, that may have something to do with it?

You don't think movies in general aren't propaganda in one form or another?

 

[blackascoal]

Foreigners will be offended by accurate history?

Sure, like the Alamo was fought to save Texas ranchers from marauding Mexicans.

It was fought to protect the institution of slavery.

But you can believe whatever you want.

Relax, we'll rectify that when Newt's moon colony gets up and running.

Hollywood star Ryan Gosling, who portrays Armstrong in the movie, told The Telegraph the flag was omitted from the moon landing because the achievement of humans walking on the moon "transcended countries and borders."

And no flag?

Well obviously the movie is meant for more than domestic consumption and given Hollywood’s penchant for completely screwing anything even remotely considered as historical accuracy can you say you are in the least bit surprised?

Another of our bogus land grab/enslavement wars, and now we have the exceptionalist nerve to call human beings "illegals". This is what american exceptionalism is at its core. We grant ourselves exceptions from our values which we demand from everyone else.

And we have a former national security advisor on the board of directors at Netflix. Corporate state govt/Corporate state media-"news"/corporate state "entertainment".

While, from a perspective of mankind in general, this is a reasonable view, it's totally out of context with respect to making a movie about an historical figure. What a silly justification for a stupid decision. LOL Really. It's so stupid it makes me certain the whole movie will be revisionist bullshit. I'd like the thank the director for saving me the time of wondering if this movie will be worth watching.

Oh I agree and anyone who is expecting a political agenda is niave. It’s probably going to be Hollywood’s typical raping of history for dramatic affect and to appeal to as broad an audience as possible. Ironic in that they usually dumb down historical movies to appeal to conservatives.

They have certainly successfully glorified genocide and ethnic cleaning of the continent.

Damien Chazelle previously directed La La Land, so that might tell you something. Maybe Armstrong and Aldrin will break into a song and dance, perhaps Fly Me to the Moon? I also read that Clint Eastwood was supposed to direct it originally.

They used IMAX cameras so it can't all be bad, can it?

Oh considering Armstrong was a hometown guy from Wapakoneta, OH and is a major hero of mine I’m wincing already at how potentially bad this movie may be.

I do. I think they show 'Americana' on a world-wide stage.
I've noticed Chinese film companies are entering the world market.

"Huayi Brothers Media Corp. (Chinese: 华谊兄弟传媒股份有限公司; pinyin: Huáyì Xiōngdì Chuánméi Gǔfèn Yǒuxiàn Gōngsī) is a Chinese multinational entertainment company that owns a film studio, a television production company, a talent agency, a record label, and a movie theater chain founded in Beijing by brothers Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei in 1994. The company made world news on October 30, 2009 when the Shenzhen Stock Exchange ChiNext Board was halted, after HBMC's stock price reached 122.74 percent above its IPO price, to open at 63.66 yuan per share.[1] Patrick Frater of Variety called it "China’s largest private sector film conglomerate".[2] In 2014, the company was the seventh-largest film distributor in China, with 2.26% of the market.[3]"

Tencent is another Chinese company to look for:

"Tencent Pictures (Chinese: 腾讯影业; pinyin: téng xùn yǐng yè) is a Chinese film production company. It has created film based on books, comic books, animated series and video games.[1][2] G.CMay Animation & Film is Tencent Pictures' animation subsidiary that specializes in the production of anime.[3]"
