But why does Hollywood have to have political messages in sci fi movies?
Can't I just go enjoy a sci fi movie without thinking about politics.
I wanted to see it until I read the plot synopsis.
The hypocrisy is what also irks me most about Hollywood. Like I said Damon would not be living on the dilapted, poverty stricken planet he pretends to care so much for from his multi million dollar waterfront estates.
Basically, most hollywood movies have some kind of message in them. I freaking loved Avatar, even though it was, essentially, dances with smurfs.
The only movies I pay to see are the Marvel Comix movies, Iron Man, Avengers (The schwarma scene in Avengers was hilarious), because there is no message, just fun. And disney movies with the grandkids.
See there are these persistent themes of human life and people return time and time again to these themes and reinterpret them in literature, film, poems, paintings, etc. You didn't pay attention in your high school English classes, did you?
My point is they are a bunch of hypocrites.
Most Hollywood types live a life of luxery. If Damon is so concerned about class differential he would live a more humble life than have a $20 mil waterfront mansion.

The rest--I wait for them to come to cable.
True.
I loved the Michael Keaton Batman movie.
Now with a little one in the house there are alot of Disney movies going on.

So you are essentially arguing that Damon and others like him want to eliminate class while living as part of the elite? Um, yeah, that makes sense. I wonder why he spends time and money helping people who don't have access to clean water. Seems like those resources would be better spent on gearing up for class warfare.

Hollywood doesn't even try to hide their biases and propaganda anymore.
