Why don't they make American tall tale kinos anymore?
>>
>>223481328
It excludes Americans who don't identify as Americans.

no women

the great debate

>>223481328
everyone hates america
>>223481579
second hand lions before you have kids, Big Fish after you have kids
>>
>>223481579
What debate? It's never been debated, let alone 'greatly'.

There's no connection between those two movies and you will not pit them against one another.
>>
>>223481328
Because that would be a celebration of the American spirit and culture which certain parties wish to snuff out for the sake of hollow consumerism and cultural marxist cancer.

>>223482128
Fuck off, schizo.

Secondhand Lions was peak coming-of-age kino paired with classic adventure stories.
>>
America has no culture. "Tall tales" were always fake.
>>
America today is literally not even the same civilization as the ones who had these kinds of folk myths.
>>
>>223482556
What exactly differentiates real folklore from fake folklore?
>>
Do zoomers even know about Paul Bunyan?
>>
>>223482442
You believe men can be women.
>>
>>223482442
He's right.
>>
>>223482652
Well, someone just making up a fucking story vs an evolving oral history.
>>
>>223482690
No I don't. I just don't think there's a top secret effort to destroy "American culture and spirit", you fucking insane retard.

You make everything about politics and it's about sanity.
>>
>>223482789
it’s not top secret anon. They’re very very open about it.
>turn brands into religions
>>
>>223482803
Just because YOU worship brands doesn't mean that was anyone's intention or that the rest of us do.
Sorry you're nuts. You spent too much time online chasing rabbit holes and not enough time socializing and having relationships with other people.
I pity you types.
>>
>>223482764
This means nothing. Oral traditions are made up too.
>>
>>223482888
The difference is the purpose that making something up fulfills. With genuine folklore, you have something that wasn't made up by a single person for their own personal ends, you have motifs and themes that give us insight into how a people views themselves and their world as it evolved over centuries. Whereas "fakelore" usually comes to us either from somebody wishing to deliberately falsify that to spin a fake narrative or wanting to use the fake aura of that idea to sell shit.

That's all. I don't like people like you who think the world is a huge lie but everyone else is too stupid to see through it. You don't know anything. You suspect and distrust everything. Pointlessly.
And it's 99% likely that you became like that because you are lonely and bitter.

You're arguing with an embittered, third world undesirable.
>>
>>223483038
You're inventing your own criteria to rationalize your hate for America/ns.
>>
>>223481328
They're not allowed to make those anymore because everything is racist. Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyan, and other American folk heroes would be called white colonizers or some dumb shit.
>>
>>223484374
Don’t we have documentation that most, if not all of our “tall tales” were fabricated by marketers?
>>
>>223482789
>I just don't think there's a top secret effort to destroy "American culture and spirit
Very real and not a secret.
>>
>>223483038
Every story was made up to instill specific values in the youth. The Sumerians built themselves around the epic of Gilgamesh because the ideas it employed would translate across generations and facilitate a functional post-hunter-gatherer civilization. Since then every civilization knew it needed an unchanging foundational mythology or the civilization would collapse.
>>
>>223481328
Because no one under the age of 40 remembers most of those stories. I'm 40 and I remember the old cartoons of these, but I wouldn't go see a movie of any of it.
>>
>>223481328

Saw a black guy in overalls the other day and thought of John Henry.
>>
>>223482556
Johnny Appleseed, Daniel Boone, Davey Crocket, were all real guys. The tales of their exploits grew into a mythos around them just like any other figures.

You're misinterpreting some powerpoint presentation as some actual goal. Like they're really going to build "churches" to the consumer and it's not just business talk, but some sinister effort to "enslave" everyone. And they're doing it RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES and you're trying to expose this to all the dumb sheep who aren't worried because of course it's innocent and it's fucking stupid.
>>
>>223484495
Fine, then it's not an effort at all. It's not a conscious move on anyone's part to change anything. It's just something crazy people think when the world progresses.
>>
>>223484930
There is no misinterpretation, you’re trying to act like he meant it literally when it’s trying to subvert people into holding consumerism and other gay shit above all else. To the point where they will spend their all their fucking free time consuming slop and simping for corporations. MCUfags are the biggest example of this. Or are you going to pretend it’s not happening while simultaneously pushing how it’s normal and pointing it out is retarded?
>>
>>223484977
No one is attempting subversion. You just see that kind of thing everywhere and you constantly bitch about it on these anonymous sites. You're a cynical fucking loser.
>>
>>223485003
>no one is attempting to subvert culture by flooding media with consumerist garbage
Even you don’t fucking believe this.
>You're a cynical fucking loser
Says the faggot who will go see Avengers Doomsday opening night and clap like a seal when all the shit people predicted months ago shows up and pretend that the dogshit writing is on par with Othello.

Keep uncovering the secrets of the puppetmasters, o' rebel. You're going to fight and resist all the shady tactics by "THEM". You're noticing. You're not an idiot at all.

And no, I don't watch comic book movies.

Oh you’ve entered that state where you need to act smug after realizing that you can’t actually argue anything that has been shown/presented so have to dismissively mock shit or rather make it look like you’re dismissively mocking shit to hide the fact you’re butthurt about being wrong on 4chan.
>You're going to fight and resist all the shady tactics by "THEM". You're noticing
Pulling this gambit, especially now is beyond fucking retarded. What are you going to say the government isn’t run by pedos next?
>And no, I don't watch comic book movies
Yes you do, they’re one of your favorite genres of slop to have shit down your fat throat just like Star Wars, video games shows, and FOTM celebrity trash.

I just posted a pic from the epstein files of a private email between him and Peter Thiel admitting that he represented the Rothschild banking family. You can try and keep acting like a hyperbolic retard pretending that you don’t care/are trolling but it’s not going to work. You lost, fuck off back your circlejerk and cry about getting btfo by 4chuds again. Or whatever gay shit you do.

So predictable.

>>223485665
Those are not elected officials. Now you need to provide evidence that they in any way control the government or are 'pedos'.

I know you think your 'intuition' covers it, but I'm a facts guy.

>>223481579
I always preferred Big Fish for the same reason I love Elizabethtown, but Secondhand Lions was a good movie.
