Title: 9/11 terrorist attacks and money wasted on movies
Post by: First77 on June 19, 2018, 12:11:55 PM
There were 9/11 terrorist attacks in which 4 large planes were crashed into 3 giant buildings by hijackers/terrorists. Still they show all those nonsense actions and fights in hollywood movies and other movies. Superheroes and action heroes saving the world.

Afghanistan war is in its 18th year now. Suicide bombings and terrorist attacks on military and police. Last year, 10 terrorists killed 160 Afghan soldiers in a single attack.

But people still pay $20 or $80 for tickets to watch those nonsense movies and the movie directors, production houses, movie theatres earn $100 million or $800 million from a single movie.

Money wasting is also economics.

After 9/11 attacks in USA, all the superheroes (superman, spiderman etc.. must have been scrapped)

I think this should belong to politics and society section instead of economics because this topic would largely tackle society as a whole, and not their money wasting habits on those you refer to as nonsense action movies. Nevertheless, I don't see any reason for us to criticize people for spending $50 or $200 on a single movie ticket to watch it because it is their way to relax and relieve themselves from stress.

The film industry always offers such a movie that is popular. The modern world is becoming violent and filmmakers show it as it is. What do you think if the movie doesn't show the terrorist attacks, they'll disappear in life? Lol. 30th years of the last century were popular films about love but this did not prevent the start of world war 2.

LOL whats wrong with earning lots of money due to those great movies?Its their business though.Instead of blabbering, how about you should mind your own business.We are not force to watch those movies in the first place and second its not just a waste of time watching those type of movies because for your information we can get knowledge and moral values in those movies.Well as what you said movies doesnt help the economy of a country?Then you are wrong because even they earned lots of profit due to making movies they paid also big tax to the government and we all know that those tax will go to the projects or other things for the benefits of the people of a country.

You come across as a typical leftie snowflake.

Ban everything you dont personally like or agree with.

How many lives would banning Islam and deporting every Muslim in the West save?  Agree with that?

What do you expect? All around you uses money and those producers are making movies that people may like and will accumulate so much money for it. So do yours.

No kidding. 

"Oh, there's so much wrong in the world.  God forbid we should watch a movie!!".  I didn't bomb those soldiers in Afghanistan, and I don't watch the news so I wasn't even aware of it.  Now that I am aware of it, I still don't care.  There are billions of people who died before I was born, more that died while I've lived, and countless more will die after I'm dead.  Everyone dies, and I have a very narrow circle of sympathy and of who I expend emotional energy on.

I'm going to keep watching the superhero movies, because that's a positive aspect of life.  If I just focused on how fucking bad the world is, I'd be pulling my hair out.

Movies are a big part of the economy. Not only the producers but also lot of merchandise of many kinds are introduced focusing on a movie. People still pay lots of money to watch these films. And sadly, this nonsense actions are the one who attracts more customers or viewers. This is all good business.

So you have a problem with the movie industry or with the war in Afganistan? Even if there are some faded stories thru this movies people, uninterested in politics, finde out that something is happening over there. I know it does not change anything but once with the comercial movies cammed the documentaries so i thig it is a good investition. Don't judge the people, judge the war.

I also felt that it should also be in politics and society or off topic but as right as that suggestions might sound, he still make mention of the economics aspect because of the amount spent in various cinemas watching these movies. Its even surprising that hero movies with the same story line of saving the day continues to have a world wide grossing of all time.

You have made a very sound observation and I think most of those movies are really not about showing how to save the world but commending the efforts law enforcements agents are doing behind the scenes to ensure the streets are safe. They are not perfect but what they do in the dark to keep us safe, is more than those open to us after all, its only a safe society that movie cast can mount of their gadgets to shoot movies.

From an economic perspective, the rise of bitcoin could be fueled by the public losing faith in governments, leaders and institutions. An increase of violence, poverty and extremism in the world might be explained by similar paradigms.

Movies and media portray how the world should work in theory. It gives many the impression that those in power make responsible decisions, have the peoples best best interests at heart and do the right thing for humanity rather than simply catering to special interest demographics or abusing their position of power and authority as a get-rich-quick scheme.

It might be said politics is merely a mirror of our culture and society. The way to improve and elevate those things could be to start on an individual level--which is not so easy.

Taliban kills 30 Afghan soldiers, captures military base in 1st major attack since ceasefire

Taliban militants killed 30 Afghan soldiers and captured a military base in the western province of Badghis on Wednesday, in their first major attack since a ceasefire for the Eid al-Fitr holiday, Reuters reported. Provincial Governor Abdul Qafoor Malikzai said the Taliban attacked two security posts in the early hours. One military base was targeted in the district of Balamerghab, according to Abdul Aziz Bek, head of the Badghis provincial council. A total of 15 Taliban were killed in other areas of the province overnight, the official said, adding that the militants had prepared their attacks and did reconnaissance of the area during their three-day ceasefire that ended on Sunday.

What belongs to the past let it pass. Remembering only makes their people sadder. But I can not remember. Because it also partly relieved the losses they had experienced. Sadly and encouraging them to live well for those who have died, they find peace in the afterlife.

To me I see it this way- movies are stories and story writers have their own ways of writing them. They fmhave to make the audience love what they're feeding them and that's what they're doing. By the way, pertaining to terrorism ad security, I'm sure almost every country on this planet budgets for that- and America is no exception.m, but the problem is that humans are humans and you can't control them. If they've decided to cause a war, they find all possible means to cause them and that's why no matter the intervention, soldiers or whatever there's always some war going on somewhere.

Wars and terrorist attacks jeaopardise some countries to alomost irreparable state. The tragic consequences on innocent bystanders, the collateral damages and other things that happen is war times are regrettable. If more money if channeled towards education instead of attacks and wars, economies will be better.
