Another liberal movie, though it may not seem like it, is Jarhead. Yeah, I know it takes place during the first Gulf War, but it really looked like it was making fun of Marines. A guy basically wrote a book about his time over there and some Hollywood dork ripped it apart and made a movie out of it. I have two friends that have been in the Marines and both of them say that movie is nothing like being in the Marines. I think there's a couple of "real" depictions, one being when the shit was being burned (my Air Force brother has told me about those) and the other is at the end when the commander stops the sniper to watch the bad guy get bombed. Everything else in that movie was crap.

Star Trek IV: Save the Whales is another one. I'm having a real hard time coming up with titles that are either liberal or conservative. I tend to watch a lot of Action, Sci-Fi, and Fantasy, so unless there's an overt political message (there usually isn't), I don't notice it. Serenity could possibly be seen as conservative, though the backstory, I think, falls more in line with the Civil War than anything else.

EDIT: The thread title and mention of Clinton who knows how many times is what's making those ads show up. That and whoever mentioned those authors names.

Let's try this. Joss Whedon, Buffy, Angel, FireFly, Serenity, X-Men. Maybe that'll mix things up a bit.
