Project Hail Mary:

“plus a man asks the female project leader if she believes in God, and she implicitly replies yes, because the alternative is too horrible or terrifying to imagine…”

Again not judging Christians or religions here but I feel like it’s a bit of a stretch to say that “beats the alternative” is implying all this

“It’s a thoroughly uplifting movie with no objectionable content except for two minor references to evolution.”

Oh! science denial!

Interstellar:

“…plus strong Pro-American, somewhat capitalist theme of innovation and pioneering with some statements that go against leftist politically correctness…”

LMAO WHAT 💀💀💀 (also I copied and pasted that the typo was there)

“This spirit of pioneering is even patriotic, and it’s this mindset that pushed America to become what it is, a leading nation.”

And we also committed a genocide against the Indigenous peoples while “pioneering” but you’re not gonna mention that, huh. Not to mention that this movie isn’t even about America??

“There’s even an anti-politically correct moment when Cooper confronts the government school for trying to brainwash his children into believing that the Apollo missions were faked.”

What am I even supposed to say at this point. Just because the government school feeds yoh lies doesn’t mean they must be woke lies??? (As I very well know from growing up in a red state)

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

“…the scientific and theological truth that the universe had a beginning and, therefore, must have been created by an Intelligent God…”

Again, no hate on the theology part, but science does not say that, because the universe had a beginning, it must have been created by a god? Most cosmologists would probably consider this a fallacy

“…hero has a “Black Lives Matter” pin on his backpack but this probably just refers to the pro-life sentiment of the words and not to the corrupt communist group BLM…”

💀 + everything I don’t like is communism

“Being a superhero is like being a policeman. If being a policeman is your calling from God, then you should pursue it, but not until you’re 18 or 21.”

somehow I think this would have made the movie a lot less interesting. Everyone: the world needs saving Miles: sorry gotta wait til I’m legal

Contact:

“CONTACT could be advertised as FORREST GUMP’s sister meets L. Ron Hubbard”

I’m pretty sure Forrest Gump definitely does not have a sister??? Are you trying that hard to make it not gay. It’s an analogy.

“…and goes to teach school children her new alien pseudo-scientology religion.”

Huh 😭😭💀💀

“A strange undercurrent in the movie is the corporate socialism and benevolent world leader of the corporation who knows more than the governments whom he manipulates. He represents a sanitized, modern National Socialism, whose true nature is presented in images of Adolph Hitler.”

HUH??????????? 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 (where does it say he was a socialist) (also the nazi party wasn’t actually socialist)

Don’t Look Up:

“…making an allegory about apocalyptic climate change (which has been refuted by top scientists, including the United Nations latest paper on the subject – promoting the idea of some climate change is different from promoting an unproven claim about apocalyptic climate change destroying the world)”

Made up study or took a quote egregiously out of context, call it

“Toward the end, the female President becomes a Trump-like caricature”
