Counterpoint: People would regularly forget their children when leaving on vacation and their children would have to go to war with local crooks
The eternal boomer
“I miss being a kid and therefore we need to genocide the undesirables!” Like that’s it, that’s their underlying villain origin story; they became adults and miss being a kid. Literal disney adults, literal disney adults are running circles around us in politics and the culture wars. It’s so humiliating we’re losing to THAT!
And the FUCKING 70s? That decade sucked ass. I wasn’t there but my dad most certainly was.
yeah he makes a great point, i get all my opinions from 1990s dog movies
This is recycled 1950s nostalgia based on media for a new generation.
I have heard multiple boomers cite Leave it to Beaver as if it's a documentary
This same mf will call you propagandized about communism as if they aren't the easiest propaganda victim of all time
Their whole post was them full on admitting they don't care about things existing, they just want to not think or hear about them
I think the people who call Hallmark's mass-produced boilerplate Christmas movies fascist propaganda are onto something.
I live with an elderly person who watches only these movies and cable news, so believe me when I say that they definitely feel like the kind of media that would be on TV if the Nazis had succeeded in WWII
Yes the nazis loved very in-offensive quaint nuclear family landscape settings. Movies that had a “deep message” and “too artsy and abstract” as part of cultural criticism was seen as part of judeo-bolshevism modernism.
I can’t help but wonder, do gamergaters not realize that Adolf Hitler would probably hate most vidya/anime?
Like call me basic but it’s pretty obvious my favorite anime is Dragon Ball. It brings me satisfaction knowing the nazis would hate it.
Feels like Hallmark Christmas movies are a dying breed of neoliberal propaganda from the 90's.
If 90s Animal Movies were thrash bands Beethoven would be Anthrax. That's some below Homeward Bound respect. To even pretend to be in the same realm as Air Bud is just hubris
Where’s that chapo bit?
They literally reminisced about some proleslop film and thought “yep, 75% of the world’s population needs to die because I like this movie!”
Their brain is a dog’s brain.
OK, but the 90s was peak time for "Racism is over :)" media???
Then by their own logic, they’re the ones that did the race baiting. 4chan, facebook and the underlying Amerikkkan hivemind decided “hey we want racism back!” (Not that it ever ended.)
We didn’t stop being color blind, they did and we simply had to as well.
Yes the 90s is definitely what I associate with the “we archived everything” “we fixed racism” and “I don’t see color/I am a friend to all humans” or the “why are black people still upset about what happened xxx years ago?”
I had to watch this in school
What the fuck James Earl Jones was in this
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Love that he included the 70s in this. Famous era for optimistic, apolitical movies with no sexual or racial themes.
Read some Marvel from the 70's people were scared as fuck it was the end of the world because of the oil crisis and turmoil in the middle east and it made it's way to comic books.
The first Gundam is from that era and Newtypes were portrayed as psychedelic world conscious emphats that would bring a better peaceful world. Basically the OG “the kids are alright”/“Zoomers will save us”
Those burnt film/acid washed backgrounds for when the newtype moments happened tho
"Beethoven, bite this guy's wiener!!!!!" - The prodigal son of the last great American dynasty
Same energy as
Sargon of AkkadCarl of Swindon saying that Western Civilisation peaked with Alien Ant Farm's cover of Smooth CriminalI didn't like the song when a black man sang it because black people scare me. Then some white boys from the suburbs did a cover for it and I could feel my roman ancestors smiling down on me from heaven.
IT'S A MOVIE WITH THE PREMISE "WHAT IF A DOG WAS BIG AND GROSS?"
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?
Beethoven
Dog can't talk
Nobody shrinks
Nobody grows giant
No Robin Williams
Dog can't even play basketball
Fuck this shit, I refuse to believe anyone is nostalgic for Beethoven
EDIT: I looked up the plot because I couldn't remember what even happens in this piece of shit movie, and the moral of the story is "animal testing bad" which is so funny because you know these hogs would be baying in a fury if you directly said that to them.
Dog can't talk
What? I never watched this movie, but it used to be on TV a lot. The dog doesn't even speak? Wtf is this movie even about?
They find a St Bernard and they name it Beethoven and he grows bigger than they expected and I remember nothing else about it
St. Bernard's are already fucking huge. One time my friend mistook one for a bear, said it looks like there's a bear in the house, the person living there said 'oh! That's Buster!' Friend the asked 'what's a Buster?'
Buster was cool as hell
Like, big for a Saint Bernard, or big in general? Because if you didn't know a St Bernard would be big...
He was a puppy when they found him and they're dumb
Also someone is trying to do experiments on dogs or something and he's the villain idk
