Why don't they make American tall tale kinos anymore?
>>223481328It excludes Americans who don't identify as Americans.
no women
the great debate
>>223481328everyone hates america>>223481579second hand lions before you have kids, Big Fish after you have kids
>>223481579What 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.
>>223481328Because 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.
>>223482128Fuck off, schizo.
>>223481359invaders?
>>223481579Secondhand 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.
>>223482556What exactly differentiates real folklore from fake folklore?
Do zoomers even know about Paul Bunyan?
>>223482442You believe men can be women.
>>223482442He's right.
>>223482652Well, someone just making up a fucking story vs an evolving oral history.
>>223482690No 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.
>>223482789it’s not top secret anon. They’re very very open about it.>turn brands into religions
>>223482803Just 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.
>>223482764This means nothing. Oral traditions are made up too.
>>223482888The 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.
the animated versions disney made were great. no clue why they’d want to bury them
>>223482881>if u acknowledge dis u worship brands!… im legitimately embarrassed for you.
>>223483179And I for you. Still a virgin at your age? Pathetic.
>>223483199>ur schizo!>u worship brands!>ur v-virgin!Got any more shaming tactic thought terminators?
>>223483247That'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.
>>223481579Lonesome Dove
>>223483338Anon. What part of >>223483179 is a lie? What part of “they’re openly stating what they’re doing and why” is a lie? It seems like you’re just getting emotional about something that makes you uncomfortable.
>>223482684He was in It Chapter 2 7 years ago
>>223484162THERE WAS A CHAPTER 2?!
>>223482442>we're not being culturally undermined said the Disney obsessed tranny
>>223481664>everyone hates americaI don't.
>>223482652You're arguing with an embittered, third world undesirable.
>>223483038You're inventing your own criteria to rationalize your hate for America/ns.
>>223481328They'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.
>>223484374Don’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 spiritVery real and not a secret.
>>223483038Every 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.
>>223481328Because 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.
>>223481328Saw a black guy in overalls the other day and thought of John Henry.
>>223482556Johnny 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.
>>223483724You'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.
>>223484495Fine, 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.
>>223484930There 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?
>>223484977No 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 loserSays 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.
nobody brought up avengers but you bro
>>223485057Keep 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.
>>223485109>>223485114>Keep uncovering the secrets of the puppetmasters, o' rebelOh 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 noticingPulling 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 moviesYes 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.
>>223485375The government is not run by pedos.
>>223485375>Yes you do, you LOVE them because I say so, because it fits the type of person I have decided that you are.
>>223485424>>223485445>The government is not run by pedosRight you’re one of those faggots who needs to have their noses bloodied. >ignore all evidence >can’t argue anything >can only cope and try to project smugness to attempt to save faceI hit the nail on the head and all you can do is shit yourself and throw a tantrum.
>>223485513Oooohh, "the Rothschilds"! Who secretly run the government and the whole New World Order shadow government in cahoots with the lizard people.Get a load of Alex Jones over here!Please, don't "bloody" me any further, anon!
>>223485539I 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.
>>223485665Damn that other guy sure knew how get under your skin
>>223485539>>223485779>that other guy
>>223484930Hey bot, the guy you were actually responding to here. How is a fifty foot wide powerpoint presentation not a goal?
>>223485779>damn I sure need to samefag to say how I am trolling to cope with getting btfo So predictable.
>>223485665Those 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.
>>223481579I always preferred Big Fish for the same reason I love Elizabethtown, but Secondhand Lions was a good movie.
>>223482442He's completely and objectively correct.
>>223485921>Those are not elected officialsthe supreme court ruling on citizens united vs the FEC means that bribery is protected speech.
>>223485936>cultural marxist cancerYep, completely and objectively correct. ...if you're fucking CRAZY
>>223485965The two things you posted are unrelated. They are not elected officials and bribery has nothing to do with that. Are you insinuating they bribe the elected officials? And you're conveniently unable to produce evidence. Guess you lose again, crackpot.
>>223485921>Those are not elected officialsThey’re funding elected officials, Peter Thiel mentored JD Vance ffs.
>>223485966>gets btfo trying argue about hollow consumerism>goes for the other pointDo you really want to keep getting your teethe kicked in for the rest of the thread?
>>223485985the supreme court ruling on citizens united vs the FEC means that bribery is protected speech is 100% related to the fact "elected officials" are literally fucking owned by the highest bidder, bot

>>223482764Paul Bunyon is both a full hero to our loggers and a history of the Great Lakes, just as John Henry is to our railroad workers, and Johnny Appleseed to our farmers
>>223486120steinbeck literally wrote all of the great american novels, but you didn't list him. Why? Because he also said socialism never took hold in the US because americans don't see themselves as oppressed proletariat, but instead temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
>>223486148except for how those figures are not based on any existing person and two of them are literally defeated by industrialization.
>>223482556Paul Bunyan did have a legit campfire story tradition surrounding him before the logging companies exploited it for marketing, but Pecos Bill is legitimately fake as shit.
>>223485966You don't get to make that determination. I know, I know, ugh, I KNOW, but you just don't is all.
>>223485993Mentored with wisdom, not money.
>>223486015When have you kicked anyone's 'teethe' in? You're fucking hilarious.
>>223486210paul bunyan's story is just julius caesar except he doesn't get murdered by his friends.
>>223486017Trump takes bribes, I'll give you that. Everyone who supports him is a moron or a billionaire. There's no third choice.
>>223486224>I know, I know, ugh, I KNOW Huh?
>>223486261trump doesn't need his existence to be subsidized by bribery as he is independently wealthy. Retard that he is, he acts of his own accord.
>>223486178I'm not a machine, Anon. That was off the dome>>223486201Not all folktales are based on real people and sometimes folk tales are mean-spirited or have bad endings as cautionary tales. All too pertinent when real American heros like the Merritt Brothers were swindled out of their fortunes by John D. Rockefeller after building this nation with their blood, sweat, and tears.
>>223486282Nope. He does things for bribes and even flattery. He's so stupid people make him think they're his ideas he's enacting. Your respect for him is pathetic.
>>223486272

>>223486250Oh you’re pretending to troll again after realizing that you can’t argue the point. How did that work out last time? You samefagged just to pretend to be someone pointing it out. >When have you kicked anyone's 'teethe' inNow considering you’re assblasted and desperate enough to try and make people think you’re trolling after losing an internet argument.
