Why do conservatives and other Republicans sit back and take it when the left organizes boycotts and don't use the same tactic against them?
President Obama has to resort to having celebrities push a product (Obamacare) that is already law because he and some other Democrats know it stinks...otherwise he wouldn't need Hollywood to do it. You college students that he runs to when he's trying to get elected, you're the dupes in Obamacare - liberal, conservative, political know-nothings - all of you. The whole thing falls apart without you younger people buying insurance that a number of you neither want or need. They need your youth bucks to pay for the older people in this boondoggle so thinking you are an easy mark for celebrity hype, they are going to treat you like children and get celebrities to hype it to you. You can punish politicians when you vote but the only way you can let the Hollywood shills know what you think of this is to hit them in the wallet. If they push Obamacare, don't go to their movies, don't buy their records, don't watch their TV shows...oh, and with the TV shows, you might want to let the producers and advertisers know why you won't be needing or wanting their product.
I have not spent a dime on "hollywood" for years. The last time I set foot into a theater and paid full-price for a ticket was to watch "The Perfect Storm". I can wait until the garbage that is churned out makes it to cable.
These people are hypocrites. Many of them have enough money to pay for all their medical needs out of pocket. Do they think regular Americans don't see that? Do you think Oprah is going to use the same doctor as me and everyone else? Im sure she has her own medical team. Hypocrites.
I don't see enough of what Hollywood puts out to even boycott. However, I don't care enough about what any of them say to track it and see who I should boycott. I did get pretty tired of Tom Cruise for a while though.

It's just good community organizing.
Ooooh ban obamacare movies...
do you have a ban list, or should the people avoid all movies made in Hollywood?

I would contend from the small sample size on this thread that these CD posters aren't the movie industry's staple customers.
If someone's last theater film was "The Perfect Storm (2000)," you aren't the audience the industry is paying attention to.
