If he were a better filmmaker, that would have been made clear. Instead he made the perfect fantasy for anyone with a conspiratorial hunch to project their delusions on.
Still a fun movie even if it was made by a hack.
He fucked up the same way Paul Verhoeven fucks up and the Hunger Games people fucked up. He tried to make a left wing movie but ended up making an ode to the far right.
Have pussy left wing losers always been the same pathetic cucks losing to right wing alphas?
The more I hear about They Live's social commentary the more the entire movie comes off as just Carpenter throwing a hyper-partisan hissy fit about Reagan winning back in the 80s. At least that one fight scene was cool.
He probably could have made it work if the villains had been human rather than alien. When you make it about some foreign race that has infiltrated humanity, it sends certain signals that I don't think he intended.
Why would """They""" need to use subliminal mind control to get people to follow their human instincts?
If you didn't pick up on this on your first viewing you are a literal mouth breathing retard
>a better director would beat us over the head with his message instead of making it more versatile and universal
This is such a retarded take
But he's telling people how they're suppose interpret the movie, so he obviously didn't want it to be more versatile and universal, he wanted it to be be direct and obvious, but he failed, which is good because his vision for it is gay as fuck.
its about jews
My how times have changed. Right now you unironically have lefties defending the death of the middle class and small business while they try to #flattenthecurve and use a bunch of printed money from the government to buy shit from amazon
Lol people are all for "open to interpretation" and "death of the artist" and "you create your own meaning from art" until something like this, then it's "responsible" to "set the record straight" about the art's intent. fucking hypocrites
>viewing
>breathing
Yeah. Okay.
Why is the thumbnail different?
Jew detected
dunno lol
He just wasn't up to the task of communicating his intentions in an allegory. Storytelling of that sort isn't his strong suit as a director.
Fuck death of the artist.
All art needs to be taken in its context. Just because the writer of your favorite book was an asshole, doesn't mean that you get to ignore them.
>hunger games
>ode to the far right
Holy fuck you are delusional.
>salt of the earth rural communities taking down decadent urbanites isn't a right-wing fantasy because it's dressed up with superficial class politics.
The modern left literally encapsulates the antagonists of Hunger Games
The death of the author isn't a recommendation; it's a statement of fact.
Disdain for the rich is not a leftist-exclusive belief.
Yes it is. All conservatives are perfectly happy living slow, uneventful lives off a meager salary. Lefty faggots are obsessed with money and power because they are perpetually jealous, selfish cunts themselves.
It literally is. Right wingers gag on the dick of the rich.
Hey Edith, remember when I was made by left wingers with the intent of parodying and mocking right wing views and became america's favorite character and thus they had to go full right wing with the writing to flow with the money?
Its a part of postmodern literary theory. I'm not saying postmodern as some retarded catch-all for anything that I don't like.
I'm talking genuine postmodernism here. Death of the Author came out of that school of thought. They believed it artificially limited a text among other things.
I don't follow that at all. I believe that anything that exists can only be understood based on the context it was born from. You need to understand what the writer experienced to understand the purpose of a work. Putting your own words in another's mouth is egotistical.
Totally the opposite, actually. Left wingers are the ones that gag on the cocks of the rich AND the government simultaneously. Let me guess, you want to #flattenthecurve while the entire middle class and small business sectors of the economy get destroyed..Because going to work means "your making your boss money" or some little kid shit
Man what a fun movie. The political aspect of it is really on the nose, but most people don't watch it for the politics anyways.
It's similar to Repoman for me, just a really good movie with different politics than mine. If you need your politics to align with everything you watch, you're gonna be missing out.
it might not be, but leftists are the only people who act against the interests of the rich.
right wing populists throw their blue collar followers a bone and then proceed to lower taxes to the rich :^)
It's not but don't feel bad. You can't help it.
I don't think Carpenter doesn't realizes that the Neoconservatives were all Jews.
spoken like someone who truly has the mindset of a elementary school 5th grader. Try coming from Detroit where lefties an unions bankrupted the entire city, and billionaires are the only ones saving it. Do you have cash to renovate a skyscraper hotel? Do you have the money to fund and built an entire city block full of living quarters and business fronts? Are you going to build a shipping center? No, but you think all of this fucking shit magically grows on trees
If an artist makes a message that gets misinterpreted then it's him who failed and not the audience.
Modern politicians are still those same yuppies. Both the main parties are corporate stooges
Fuck directors telling us how to interpret art; it's art. The fun is finding a meaning for yourself.
>nstead he made the perfect fantasy for anyone with a conspiratorial hunch to project their delusions on.
That's what makes it a movie with such broad appeal. If he had been straight up IT'S THE JEWS or IT'S THE WHITES, it wouldn't have been nearly as iconic.
>ode to the far right.
Right wing populists are my second least favorite people, after anarchocapitalists.
They talk the right talk and see the right issues, but then they fuck up on the execution. "Its not all rich people its only some small subset", "The people even poorer than you are the reason your life sucks", etc. It gets the language right, but then directs it wrongly.
Left and right are just words. What matters is what you do.
>lefties
>liberals
???? Do you get all of your education from Shapiro?
where do you read liberal in any of that you dumb fuck
Lefties win because they fight dirty.The ends justify the means. They only lose when God steps in and the forces of nature collapse their system.
I bet you I make more than you and your parents combined.
>salt of the earth rural communities taking down decadent urbanites isn't a right-wing fantasy
correct
Strange because if you bring it up with Yas Forums they'll tell you if only the aristocracy didn't have Jews in it, everything would be OK. People act in the roles they're given.
>t. 19 year old whos only held a job stocking the grocery store shelves
lol
You're talking about liberals, and not leftists. Liberals are not leftists, you colossal fucking zoomer retard. Liberals want more black and female CEOs. Leftists don't want CEOs
>MARRY AND REPRODUCE
Wew! Glad I didn't do that!
It was the 80's, before mass immigration was viable. The overall point is unrestrained growth
You're fucking retarded and lack reading comprehension. Leftists are the mindless fucking faggots saying stupid shit like,
>hurr durr end the lockdown to make the rich richer
When small businesses and the middle class are fucking dying due to the lockdown, and large corps like McDonalds, Amazon, and Walmart are completely fine
Americans are truly retarded and have a warped political view when they think liberals are in any way "the left"
What do modern leftists believe in other than the death of western civilisation and the family?
Thats what I am talking about. Yas Forums is one branch of that right-wing populism.
They have similar traits to Goldwater's populism, Tucker Carlson's populism, all the rest.
Give me an actual reply.
If you are a right wing populist, then make an argument to me that shows that you aren't doing anything other directing proper leftist arguments at the wrong targets.
When has any leftist wanted the lockdown to end? Are you fucking stupid? Nobody that is on the left is saying that. You're talking about liberals and centrists
It was about Jews
Like this guy
Atheism
This. If communism happened then everyone would be poor and there wouldn't be an upper class to hold the hunger games.
>Are you fucking stupid? Nobody that is on the left is saying that.
What country are you from??? EVERYONE on the left is saying that
Pussy faggot, if you've actually worked a real job like me, whos a crane operator in a machine shop, you would completely understand how tax breaks for say, Ford or GM would be in my best interest. And now some gay as welfare/immigration program.
No, no they aren't. Give me 3 articles from a leftist publication saying anythi g of the sort. You're absolutely delusional
Leftists are anyone to the left of liberals. And that group isn't only Marxists.
>If giant billion-dollar corporations get even more money, out of the kindness of their hearts eventually I'll get more money too!
This is how I know you've lived under a rock for the past 40 years.
>The people even poorer than you are the reason your life sucks
Existence is t a neutral thing and there are groups of people who are poorer than me and exist in such a way that the way in which they exist has a more immediate negative impact on my life than the upper classes.
Nah the hunger games is literally a Bernie Sander's wet dream vision for America. In their world the government takes control instead of a plutocracy,
im not giving you three but one off the top of my head

>not wanting to be a welfare queen is problematic
I'm sorry, do you have the hundreds of millions of dollars it costs to install a stamping machine? Do you have the billions of dollars to pay for replacement parts on your machines all across the country? You fucking niggers think Ford and GM operate on some tiny overhead costs while racking in a quintrillion billion gillion dollar profit margins. KYS you weak piece of shit
It's an UNINTENTIONAL ode to the Far Right. Because any rational person watching the movie would side with president Snow. (BECAUSE HE'S WHITE. LIKE SNOW DO YOU GET IT?!?)
>If you spent time around the 12th District...you wouldn't root for them either!
Damn straight! I live in fucking Appalachia. Poor people of any color are poor for a reason and they don't deserve nor would they even ever appreciate any of this sympathy. They are unpleasant people who have had many decades and generations worth of opportunities to better themselves and they refused. And what does Collins want us to do to fix this? Give them even more free money so they can buy more meth and percocets?
I would be a lot more keen support leftist causes if they wanted strong border control to keep out labour competition against local workers, but as it happens they are so spiteful against western society that they would rather fuck over the working class just to own the racists.
