Bravo, good for you. What do we have for him Johnny!?

I'm not sure how I'm supporting Hollywood since they haven't gotten a dollar out of me in well over a decade. The last movie I've seen in the theatre was Snakes on a Plane. The last DVD I bought was Starship Troopers back in the early 2000s.

Yeah... I went cold turkey on movies. I thought the last one I watched was Welcome to Me, but that's not right. I did re-watch 10 Cloverfield Lane with my dad and brother a few months ago. I've seen 5 episodes of one TV show this year during that same family visit... Counterpart.

KODI is a program you can side-load into a Firestick and watch whatever movies and shows you want to for free as long as you have an internet connection. The movie and shows I watched during that visit were all streamed on KODI.

Of course that's the take-away here. What else could it be?

The social justice warriors are blaming everyone except themselves. They can't accept the fact that episode 8 was the straw.

Eventually one of two things is going to happen.

Big budget flops are going to become so commonplace because of the politics shoehorned into them that the SJWs are going to be driven out of Hollywood and they'll start making good movies again.

OR...

Disney is just going to buy up all of the other failing companies and own all entertainment and they'll just do whatever they want to and it will be nothing but SJW bullshit from here till eternity.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

And there you have it. Doesn't matter if you spend a dollar or not, you still watch. That, my friend, is supporting.

It doesn't really matter though; the earth keeps spinning 'round.

Or.......real talented people will write stories, make movies and relevant content that real people will watch and enjoy.

If people don't like what's out there, fuck Hollywood and make your own stories. It's that simple.

To hear the MPAA talk, using KODI is the exact opposite of supporting Hollywood.

But I think you missed the point that I was making here. Even though I have free access to watch any movie or TV show that I want to without paying for it, I don't. The only reason I even watched the movie and tv eps with my dad and bro is because they're hooked on their KODI and I spent the weekend down with my brother.

It's kind of like my new gluten free diet. I'm doing it out of choice, not because I'm allergic. If I go out with somebody to dinner or I go to somebody else's place, I'm not going to force my lifestyle on them.

These days, if I'm not working at my job I'm either outside doing yard work or I'm inside working on my projects. When I need to veg out a little before going to bed, YouTube is all I need.

Support indie content creators. Down with Hollywood.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Yup, us two, and millions more... all making you laugh.

That's how Trump got elected. I don't think a lot of people found that as humorous as I did.

Are you sure that's how Trump got elected? There is the part about Trump receiving 48% of the popular vote in Florida, but getting 100% of the electoral college vote. Since when did 48% become the new 50% majority vote? Hillary got 47%.

Then Trump got 48% in Pennsylvania, but 100% of the electoral college vote. Is 48% really the new 50%? Hillary got 47%, but not even 1 vote from the electoral college. That seems really odd, don’t you think?

Then Trump got 47% in Wisconsin, to Hillary’s 46%, and yet he got 100% of the electoral college. The college rules are getting odder and odder.

Then Trump got 47% to Hillary’s 47% in Michigan, yet Trump receives 100% of the electoral college vote. I think I’m seeing a trend here, where Trump doesn’t need a majority to win 100% of the electoral college vote. There was no a run-off election.

Also, FBI Director Comey said two weeks before the election that he thinks Hillary is felon and he is reopening the case. Then days before the election Comey says he can’t prove Hillary is a felon, but after the election he will continue his attempt to throw her in jail. Nice guy. I hear the President fired Comey for manipulating the election over Hillary’s emails. But maybe the President was mistaken! The FBI calling Hillary a felon couldn’t have changed any votes, could it? www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39866767

Ah yes... the Electoral College debate.

8 years of Obama and I never heard it mentioned once in that time.

How bout next time the Dems have the power you don't get so drunk on winning and actually remember to do something about it, instead of bitching endlessly every single time you lose?

I do agree that system should be updated, although I'm not sure what the ideal solution is. I've said so many times here when that conversation comes up. One person one vote isn't a good idea, but it would be nice if the same handful of states weren't deciding the presidency every 4 years.

So... just so I'm straight on this. As of 6/5/2018, Comey is a bad guy again, right?

It's so hard to keep up with you Democrats from day to day when it comes to whether or not Comey is evil.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Here's something else that will make you chuckle, Disney has spent mega bucks building a STAR WARS themed attraction at Disney World, what if few show up to see it? Disney has a lot of money invested in something they may be fucking up BAD!
