@OfAthenry This one hit me right in the bung hole 😆

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

Yes, please!

One of the big reasons for the current lack of patriotism and pride in our nation’s history is that about 40 years ago our most prominent storytellers in Hollywood just basically stopped telling stories about American history altogether, unless it has something to do with WW2, civil rights, or slavery. I mean they just released a movie about the meteorologist who did the weather report for D-Day. They’ll give WW2 weathermen their own movies before they tell a story from any other era of American history.

The Right has attempted to counteract this a little bit, but “conservative” attempts at American history films and TV shows are invariably hokey and kid friendly, the kind of thing you can watch with your grandmother and your 5 year old, and you’ll all be equally informed and bored by the experience.

We need R-rated adult-oriented American history stories. Daniel Boone should have his own series. It would be gritty and violent and not for children, but it would also be phenomenally entertaining and put an American legend back on the cultural map, so to speak. The fact that Daniel Boone hasn’t been depicted on screen at all since like the 60s is a travesty. Throw a dart at that guy’s Wikipedia page and you’ll land on something that could be its own feature length trilogy.

That’s just one example. How is there not a great R-rated movie or series about Antietam? Or Kit Carson? Or the Panama Canal? How does Theodore Roosevelt not have like 10 movies about different periods of his life?

You could go much farther back to pre-American history. A movie about Cortes’s conquest of Tenochtitlan would be tremendous and horrifying and fascinating, and it would introduce into the public consciousness one of the world’s most incredible stories that most Americans know next to nothing about. And on and on.

The possibilities are literally endless. All of these movies, if they’re executed to even a B+ level, could make hundreds of millions of dollars and transform the culture in a way that a million podcast monologues never could. If the Right actually wants to reclaim the culture, this is the place to start.

Always strive for excellence. A civilization that teaches its young to surpass their ancestors in virtue, courage, wisdom, and beauty ascends. One that teaches them to despise or ignore their ancestors has already begun its descent into oblivion.

@elonmusk She's just like a jellyfish. Beautiful to look at, but stings upon the touch..

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

There are amazing things outside to discover!
I don't trust people who stay inside all the time.

parents are onto something with the whole "put the phone down and go outside"

@readswithravi Never E-books! Audio-books yes, Paper books yes, but never e-books.

@usuallypregnant Currently single, but I certainly don't want an uppity career woman!

The government does a crap job of making sure people are properly qualified to drive. My dad did a great job of making sure I was qualified to drive. To those who haven't got the proper support from their family or government, then yeah, they should consider a self-driving car.

But I always want a car that I can drive myself, and that will never take the control out of my hands. That's a violation of my freedom. Never do that, Tesla!

@HistoryWJacob Keep telling the uncomfortable truths, Jacob!

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@qasireu Agreed! I'm not a Greek, but I have nothing but respect for your people and their history and myths.

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@athenaeumbc So many better choices!

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@AlpacaAurelius Very few sad folks on the trail.

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

We're tired of woke cinema.
Where's the alternative?
Who's making movies that aren't woke?
California has rules encouraging wokeness.
Hollywood is dead.
Which state will step up?
Or another country?
Everyone needs to take up a camera,
And film films of their own.
New dawn.

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@HomerPavlos Watch movies made before 2020 if you know what's good for you!

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@WhiteBabyFac It would look a lot like the USA before the mid 1960's!

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@usuallypregnant I totally agree! There should be a whole suite of classes for girls and boys to help them learn their roles in a household.

However, I don't have my hopes up that any of this will happen anytime soon. Home-school if you can!

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@elonmusk Which state will step up as the next film Mecca? We need an alternative to California.

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

@readswithravi Maybe 45 or 50 due to the lengthened lifespan since Jung lived.

[QuestForGreatness @Quest4Great]

Don't do anything half-assed. Anything worth doing is worth doing fully-assed!
