That wasn't my point. Complaining about racism while spouting racism is fairly ineffective...
Hi friend
long time no speak. I agree. I think movies are one of the final avenue where we can't be compelled to be PC
its becoming so hard now.
generally speaking we have to apologize to gingers, homosexuals, we cant afford to offend the Muslims by being alive and well. then we got vegetarians and eco-warriors.
.. yes there are political and ethnic undertones to some movies . there are many examples and I know posters can name many. just go with the flow and deal with it.
so my Iranian friends, Arabs have been butt of the jokes in Hollywood period movies , Carry on Khyber (a masterpiece makes fun of Pashtons) ..
a decade ago. I being a Pakistani also used to see an unrelated and unnecessary reference to Pakistanis in a negative way and then I look for the reasons in credits and tell me self oh a filthy Indian added that there to settle a score (usual suspects the movie for example)
but now I tend to enjoy that bad publicity because , because its is impossible for me to continuously denying that my countrymen are the willing minions and grunts of the Petro Dollar funded global Jihad. hence I said earlier that I loved "from Paris with love" and actually cheered when Travolta blew the Pakistani terrorist scumbags (although knowing so well that in almost all such cases those roles are played by smirking Indians )
