Speaking of action movies:
“G.I. Joe: Retaliation”: The Anti-Obama Conservative’s Fantasy
Asawin Suebsaeng:
…the real draw is that this movie possesses plenty of amazing (but perhaps unintentional) political troll-power.
The crme de la crme of the G.I. Joe: Retaliation trollfest is that—as my colleague Tim Murphy points out—much of it doubles as a conservative anti-Obama fantasy. One of the bad guys (played by Jonathan Pryce) is the Democratic President of the United States, a foreign-born imposter who uses killer drones on American citizens overseas, and desires a world rid of nuclear weapons. As the movie trundles to its climax, the only thing that can stop him is a team of gun-toting insurgents, led by a politically incorrect Army veteran played by Bruce Willis who does nothing but hoard a large arsenal of assault weapons in his house.
DOES THIS REMIND YOU OF ANYONE???
