I already reject most everything hollywood puts out. It is there rare movie that does not have the token sex, vomit or referance to poo. It is an insult that they think you need these things or you will not like the movie.

What's childish about it. What they DO is assume the public wants to hear their stupid opinions or their support for murderers and child rapists.


Boycott them? H*LL YES!

Maybe a letter writing campaign to Macy's about there sposorship of "The View" who features Whoopie Goldberg (She does not think what Roman Polanski did was wrong)

So Macy's is on my list to Boycott in reference to "The View"!

If you are then write to the companies who advertise with them. Let them know you are fed up with their support of the likes of David Letterman, Chris Mathews, Oprah, The View and so on!

Please post Television and Movies that you believe should be BOYCOTTED along with their sponsors!

I don't agree. If I boycotted every liberal, I would never see a movie again. I have seen many Henry Fonda, Tom Hanks, Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, and Danny Glover movies that I like. I just don't listen to their public nonsense, as the information delievered by the GED "intelligensia" is beyond any performance they have done on screen and is way too funny. I am sure that if these people boycotted every conservative, they probably would never go to a physician or dentist, nor would they have anyone to arrange thier offshore financial accounts to avoid the taxes they want on the rest of us.

General Motors or I guess now it is Obama Moters is a major sponsor of the Oprah Show, I will start to write letters to them as well.

Also finding out about the advertisers in the Oprah Magazine would help! THis is a great Forum but can you imagine how a boycott can get your message across!!!????

Well, I think it's childish because mature people should be able to handle hearing different viewpoints from theirs without throwing a temper tantrum about it.

If I don't like what an actor says I just ignore it and keep watching the movie. Now if they make bad movies....

There are certainly more enjoyable and worth while ways to entertain yourself than succumbing to Hollywood. Stop giving money to Hollywood and you will most definitely see them change their tune!

It would seem that the power of conservative boycotts is fairly limited, then, as these actors have had a lot of success.

I guess most of America has no problem with them.
