It was a pretty good flick and was sure it was one you would like.
I've long suspected Hollywood has been trying to send messages to the world. Just get a look at the worldwide audience they have. Its bigger than any country and its leaders.

I read an excellent article once in regards to the use of icons in Hollywood companies and movies. It makes for some scary reading. Ever head of the movie company Orion or the roaring MGM Lion....we've all seen them before the start of a movie. Just to mention a little story.


From Wikipedia::::
Sale to MGM
In 1997, Metromedia sold Orion (as well as The Samuel Goldwyn Company and Motion Picture Association of America) to MGM, with the deal finalized in late 1998. Orion still operates today as an in-name-only subsidiary of MGM.
