He is the literal cartoon fantasy of some Hollywood elitist left-winger’s concept of what a conservative looks like.

In real life, this guy would have a Southeast Asian mail-order bride and would have been blinded by some “muh heartland” philosophy—not some neo-Nazi pervert with a black-girl fetish.

He's definitely a Pynchon villain and Pynchon villains basically are cartoon tier. First as tragedy then as farce

Sure, German leaders killed themselves and their families when the Russians approached, and the Japanese chose death before dishonor because they were just hypocrites with repressed sexual desires. They had no legitimate convictions regarding their beliefs.

I think PTA was going by FRINGE, rare examples like some neo-nazi group in (RURAL) Texas (that Scaro/Lynne Ramsay were going to do a movie on) where the leader was dating a black woman. So a very extreme example is held up as the daily reality of normies.

His exaggerations and relying on the picaresque to avoid the fussy work of modulating tones or less obvious genre-bending (which koreans do explicitly like a magic trick, but Kiyoshi Kurosawa does on the sly) can be likened to manga/anime. Yes, PTA going anime-level exaggerations...is fine. Creativity should have no bounds of taste or morality, but NOT when it's tied to BIG money + POWERFUL political machines that distort reality then sells it to the public as a higher truth about reality, on top of the existing clusterfuck of propaganda machine that is mainstream media (October 7, antivax accused as killing people, warmongering all the time isn't accruing debt, etc.)

OBAA is based on the Tom Pynchon novel from 1990, didn't he invent Lockjaw?
>>
>>218610874
Yes, but these chuds are too dumb to read.
>>
>>218611478
>>218610874
No he is an adaptation of the main antagonist in Vineland named Brock Vond.
>>
>>218608268
Almost as if there may be a distinction between legal and illegal immigration, idk
>>
>>218611678
The only distinction is that the legal ones are harder to remove. They are just as destructive if not more so. Overton window is starting to shift towards denaturalizations thankfully.
>>
>>218611626
I haven't read Vineland yet, how exactly do Vond & Lockjaw differ? Is it merely a modernization in line with all the others made (to shift the setting from 1984 to 202X), or are there more serious divergences that actually make him into the PTA OC that OP asserts he is?

They're gonna use the one-drop rule against you, chuddie. They're gonna invent new blood matrices that make it so any relative you have going back 3 generations who has ever even eaten foreign food is gonna get your ass booted out of the country, if not killed in one of their new concentration camps or press-ganged into dying for Israel in Iran. You are nowhere near as safe from your own government as you think you are.

Anon, have you looked at America's Secret of Defense lately?
>>
>>218607785
The film shows a highly competent and professional officer working under Lockjaw who is organized, unemotional and successful. He was even played by an ex-military non-actor. Why do you think this was included, alongside Lockjaw who is completely ruled by his dick and his personal insecurities and fucks up constantly?
>>
>>218613876
The tall, handsome dude who’s had multiple wives (all white Christian women) and even cheated on some of them? The point of my post isn’t that there’s nothing to critique. It’s that PTA’s angle is one of total libtard delusion, completely divorced from reality.

yes that's the point of doing a comedy satire

did you miss the part where he's trying to get info from the leftoid phoneline and totally stonewalled because he can't remember the passphrase

the whole thing was about laughing at stupidity that's why that kind of movie is made
>>
>>218614271
Where is the strawman? You have a politician right now in real life, who is a complete clownshow caricature of a meathead faux-tough guy with no idea what he is doing and makes ridiculous comic book supervillain speeches. What about Lockjaw is supposedly unrealistic?

obviously incorrect. dr strangelove was an all time great character and he was a cartoon Nazi, nothing like the actual respectable von Braun or other operation paperclip guys

YO THESE NIGGAS ACTUALY THINK OBAA IS GOOD AND ARE TRYING TO DEFEND IT AS A SERIOUS PIECE OF ART
>>
>>218613811
It is a great video for getting right to the point about the differences, especially the "Subcultures" section where he just lists off all these random characters from the book that don't get any mention in the film at all.
The excerpt from the Screenrant article about Vond's death in the book, describing his return to the Earth, makes me think that it must be somewhat related to the book's title. I figure once I do pick it up, there will be many other scenes about the connections these many different characters have with the natural environment
>>218614059
Keyword being "almost" since the 4 central characters are all given the same attention & similar plot arcs even as dissimilar as their actual characterizations are.
>>218614454
>respectable von Braun
Some have harsh words for this man of renown
But some think our attitude
Should be one of gratitude
Like the widows and cripples in old London town
Who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun

>>218614593
no I'm not I'm saying it's funny and a comedy. the exact opposite argument. I'm saying you're retarded for trying to evaluate it as serious art
>>
>>218614454
>dr strangelove was an all time great character and he was a cartoon Nazi
Being a cartoon is okay. My issue is the lack of basis in reality. Lockjaw isn't a caricature of anything real. Nazis and German scientist defectors existed. Lockjaw has no basis in reality beyond some out-of-touch director's imagination.

>>218614784
>Guy openly embracing his ethnic wife
>Neo-nazi with repressed feelings towards minorities
I posted that and my point along with my original post is that him and Lockjaw are ideologically different and PTA's lockjaw isn't based on anything real.
>>
>>218614860
Both examples play upon the thought-patterns of rightoids to believe they are the sole exceptions to their contradictions. The Christmas Adventurers Club would want that ICE Neo-Nazi dead just as much (both are neo-nazis, don't think I missed you trying to absolve him of that).
>>
>>218614746
you're watching a movie with a cabal of millionaires who literally take the precepts of Saint Nicholas deadly seriously and have an office building with a gas chamber installed for disposing of undesirables

if at any point you were watching the obviously ridiculous over the top premises of the movie and thinking about how needed to be based on anything real you were already approaching it wrong as something it was never attempting to do

Reminds me of how people were talking about the Louis Theroux documentary on Reddit and talked about how all the dudes had single moms. One commenter disagreed, pointing how the kid in Adolescence had a dad. At least even on Reddit they bothered to point out it's a fictional show. But this shows how people just eat this up as if it's real life.
