Does a sermon instantly make it bad? Is Captain America: Winter Soldier a sermon? To me its a pretty clear stance against drone strikes and general over-securitizing(?) Of society, and I thought that was fantastic movie and message.

Let's go further back to any of the old Disney films, came from fables, moral tales of old. In fact what piece of media outside of the most boring and bland ever are not a tale to learn, think or expand your thoughts? Is that not a sermon?




>> Does a sermon instantly make it bad?

I think it does when it's "in your face" like the latest movies. It feels like a kind of propaganda that I'm not interested in. I just want to enjoy my time and watch a f*** good and entertaining movie not a jehovah witness sermon or a diversity soup.
