• Hollywood corruption doesn't breed my artistic acceptance of Eastwood ... - Jimmy NYC 13:18:35 02/07/07 (3)
  In Reply to: "Clint Eastwood is mediocre & overrated"... and he still is better than 98% of Hollywood posted by Victor Khomenko on February 7, 2007 at 12:41:29:

  OK - Before we start to determine what 2% of Hollywood films you (Victor) deem as worthwhile Hollywood movies, and the 98% you judge as unworthy, let's look at Eastwood, the Directors work....

  A majority of his work has an abundance of rape, whippings, torture sadism, and other sordid leanings . Cornpone at best. It irks me to see , in my lifetime, Eastwood go from a one dimensional cowboy to a respected and heralded director. Out of his numerous films he's been involved with he's gotten it remotely right only once- and that was " The Unforgiven". Most of his stuff is un-watchable. Eastwood is no artist!

  If you have a problem with recent Hollywood films (as I do) that's fine, we are in agreement, but it doesn't mean I have to accept crap from Eastwood as quality and not be able to sound off about it.

    • Oreo - You should try to make yourself more clear so I know what to respond to .... - Jimmy NYC 02:50:13 02/08/07 (1)

      I am no prude- but I don't like to view extreme violence, sexual and otherwise - like whippings, molestation, gang rape, castration etc...unless it's meant to support the story. Not to titillate the repressed viewer. These themes are the "go to" ideas that center around the Eastwood script. Let the "Romans" watch this grime.

      I hope this was a rebuttal to your comment Oreo.

        suggest you stay away from Bob Guccione's 'Caligula'. ~AH
