#hollywood #rise #fall
I gave up on the Hollywood entertainment industry years ago. I use to go to the movies several times a month, my friend worked at a theater and we would watch movies together all night. Now there isnt anything Hollywood puts out that interests me in the slightest.
Hollywood is doomed
Same here, they are a joke now!
Neverending sequels based on comic books, creating "franchises" out of previous successful movies, CGI, CGI, CGI, weak storylines and movie theaters owned by China. No thanks.
Or your friend doesn't work at the theatre anymore, so no more free shows 😂. Just kidding. I feel your sentiment.
I haven’t been to the movies in years. I haven’t watched the Academy Awards in years. Academy Awards used to be appointment TV for me every year. Now it’s so political and so woke, I don’t even know it’s on some years as that’s how much I’ve tuned out of pop culture. I honestly didn’t know the Academy Instituted all that silly regulation to be nominated. No wonder why I haven’t been to the movies in years!
I'm an actor and independent film maker and honestly what's happening in hollywood is disgusting. the oscars are worthless now. the upside to this whole thing is that now there's a good opportunity to decentralize the film industry and for a lot of talented indy film makers to take over.
Indy films are fast becoming my favorite. The special effects and lavish budgets of Hollywood seem to be a garbage machine, while the Indy films are killing it on substance and content
My church and church members are writing, producing, and directing more and more quality Christian and Judeo-Christian content. Movies, music, TV shows, and more.
And not only under our church's name because while our church is being more "inclusive", we're not progressives, leftists/extremists, radicals or psychos lol.
I’ll take an Indy film over a big budget any day! I could give a crap about Hollywood garbage, except for one and that was Elvis! That one impressed me!! And I never watched the Oscar’s or Academy’s! Maybe back in the 70’s and 80’s, but even rarely then! Hollywood sucks!!
I’m all about Indy…
The Oscars were always worthless & always will be & Hollywood is disguisting since it was founded.
I used to host Oscar’s parties each year - on a Monday night for us here in Australia. I was an avid movie fan and absolutely loved the industry. Did a lot of work with it too and would go to the cinema at least once a week.
Have not been in 3yrs now. Haven’t watched the Oscar’s in 5. Couldn’t care less about anything made after 2015.
Hollywood is dead to me
there have always been perverts and pedos in Hollywood, you
are just figuring it out now.
I used to love watching Farscape, produced in Australia from 1999-2003, and it was wildly creative and different. Same enjoyment from Stargate and a lot of other shows made in Canada, a few British programs airing on the US' PBS networks. I look forward to even more non-Hollywood products.
@elliegee. I'm American & totally agree & I no longer watch movies!
Mirror mirror on the wall, there are some stupid fucking woke communists in Hollywood after all.
My dad would not allow us to go to the movies in the 70s or 80s. I asked why. He said he would never give money to the industry that was trying to destroy the morals of the USA. How right he was and still is.
That doesn't even make sense with respect to your dad. do you remember how many pro-American films there was in the 1980s that started up in the late 1970s? The 80s, a decade that was run by Reagan of all Presidents who loved his nation.
Agree with papa
😅🙏🏾
Sorry but that's called isolation not protecting you from morals plus in a way thats kinda enforcercing his views on to you
@@jazzdub4958 By "pro-American" you mean pro-war? How many of those pro-America movies had heroes breaking the law for the greater good? Because that's how the Permanent Government (the unelected part) sees itself and wishes to be portrayed.
I can't name a single movie in my lifetime that portrayed an honest business man or an un-bigoted business man. The narratives have shifted over time, but Hollywood pushed socialism. You never see the good guys in a Hollywood film arguing for LESS government intrusion.
Her dad was right. You don't realize how you were being indoctrinated at the time, methinks.
As for Ronald Reagan, he talked a good game, and he was right about high taxes stifling prosperity and tax revenues over the long haul. He was right about government intervention as being a bigger problem than the problems it purported to solve. But in actions, he was very authoritarian. War on Drugs, 55 mph speed limit, low-interest loans for New England fishermen, ... He intervened any time he pleased, because he was so sure he was right, which is exactly what he supposedly stood against.
And don't get me started on the Cold War. I was staunchly anti-Soviet during those years. I think I would have taken a different view if I had known all the things we were doing to different countries prior, during, and since his administration. The main thing that made me believe as I did was the ridiculous over-estimates of the actual Soviet threat. Our "Intel Community" sold me a bill of goods, routinely over-estimating Soviet threats by easily a factor of 10.
Reagan slowed the rate of growth of domestic spending, but he made no fundamental shifts in domestic policy in that regard. The teeth gnashing by Democrats over entitlements was enough for him to mostly leave them alone. More than that, the enormous over-estimate of the Soviet threat gave the defense industry and all its minions a blank check. He and all his successors bought and SOLD us a world view full of dangers that justified any manner of murder, war, and subversion to fight those dangers, setting the stage for the war-mongering security state of today. Reagan did some good things and some bad things. He's not the idol so many on the right seem to worship. Like Trump, he was elected to drain the swamp, but when he left, the swamp was bigger and stronger than ever before.
I still remember of a time I would get so excited when a movie was going to come out. Those days are gone!
Pat has hit the nail on the head! Hollywood will struggle as a result of its new standards. As a result the world will see a new age of film
This is not about the movies, it is about Deliberately Destroying America.
ideological subversion
Edit: If anyone wants a definition ChatGpt v1 said this
Ideological subversion is a type of psychological warfare in which the values and beliefs of a society are systematically attacked and undermined. This can be done through various means, such as propaganda, media manipulation, and infiltration of institutions. The goal of ideological subversion is to change the way people think and act in a way that is favorable to the subverter. It is a form of covert influence, as it seeks to change people's beliefs and behavior without them being aware of it.
I agree, it's so obvious. It seems every aspect of life is being controlled.
The greatest understatement of the decade.
BINGO!
And who controls Hollywood?
I am a black American and my favorite movie is the Godfather, never cared what nationality, the actors was, all I know was it was one of the greatest movies ever made, I was only 6 years old in 1972 when the first Godfather movie was debut, and I was only 8 years old when the second Godfather movie was showed, and in 2023 I am now 57 years old whenever I watch it today I am still learning something new about the characters in the movie 51 years ago.
The 1970s was a great decade for film
This has nothing to do with the Godfather Persei and it has nothing to do with what you like, the fact is that people want representation. The fact is is, and you know this, thirty years ago you had very small black rolls and very little black people winning Academy Awards. Gone With the Wind for instance, Hattie McDaniel one supporting actress, she had to sit in the back what's a she was not even allowed to go to the premier in Atlanta, you may be sitting up here identifying with these white boy, but you have absolutely no history a knowledge of the fact the Hollywood history whitewashing none representation
The Seventies was a great decade for cinema, I remember seeing Apocalypse Now at the drive in, it was quite an eye opener for 8 year old me.
Once again Pat, you've hit the nail on the head. My all-time favorite movie is The Good, The Bad & The Ugly and I couldn't imagine anything more ridiculous than me saying, "I'm not watching this movie because as someone of West Indian descent, my race is not represented in it."
Hollywood destroying itself is giving an opportunity for some of us independent filmmakers to rise up and provide what they aren't providing.
Yes much like the major beer makers are destroying themselves with wokeness and helping to steer beer drinkers to local breweries. Local brewers have exploded over the recent years and in my opinion, produce a better tasting beverage.
I was born in USSR, and sorry to say but what I see today in USA is reminding me of USSR in year 1987. when government party went nuts and was shoving their idiotic ideological bs in every hole they could imagine. And what I see in US its doing same mistakes. hope they will reverse this insanity until its too late.
Independent films need to go mainstream
@@GAURAV25855ify you don't consider Sound of Freedom over $50M box office mainstream?
You have the right idea 👏🏽
Hollywood is a joke now. They only produce woke garbage, endless sequels, and remakes now.
With communism, creativity and originality isn't really allowed.
Yep big time!! Garbage for at least 40 years now!! No talent!! All porn crap trash!!
True very lame silly marvel stuff just making films for 12 year olds
“Woke” = Marxist Theology.
Yup
I’m an Independent Latino. Thank Patrick you are KING 👑!!! Thank you for being Transparent. ❤
There’s been a huge noticeable decline in the quality of movies over the last 10+ years. The 1990’s were the last decade of consistently great movies being made.
I agree.
Go find the movie;" IDIOCRACY" and you'll see the woke people of today, in this predictive programming movie. Movies and TV programs, are now made to dumb down the Population and it works. Look at the woke leftists people. It's total mental illness.
The decline was when Hollywood decided to make action movies from comic books catering to 14 year old white males that's the decline of Hollywood not the diversity issues!
People always think their formative decade was the best decade. Your parents will say movies from their formative decades were better than the garbage of the 90s.
Also, PBD's reasoning is very bad. Hollywood had 95% marketshare in 1920s when the market was tiny. No one was making movies back then. As movie making becomes more democratized, as the technology becomes cheaper, so now even RUclipsrs can make feature length films, of course it is going to steadily decline. It's frankly impressive Hollywood still has 55% share, given how expensive actors and sets are in major metro areas, in comparison to filming movies in NZ.
I'd argue the early 2000s
I work in Hollywood. It’s true things are weirder than ever. Luckily now I can work remotely and don’t go there anymore but with my conversations with folks there, you can see a shift. Not many are happy with this directive. I never missed the Oscars since childhood but since the pandemic I made sure not to watch anymore. It’s really sad now.
I live here too. I stopped watching the academy since 2020.
The Oscars are virtue signaling
No more grammy awards or Oscar awards
Excellent video about Hollywood. I am a SAG-AFTRA union member and have been for many years. I am also an independent writer and producer for women's stories. I am planning to film all of my projects in the southern states where I grew up. I too, see the same thing happening of all that you mentioned. BTY, I use to go to Florentine Gardens back in the 90's in Hollywood, where you were 'bouncing'. LOL. God bless you for your great insight!
Thank you Pat. I can't remember the last time I've watched a NEW movie......or ANY movie, for that matter, it's been years. I ditched my cable and haven't even owned a TV in close to a decade. People put these celebrities on pedestals, as if they are really any different than the next guy. People hang on their every word and many people track every little detail of their lives. I once dated a woman and her sister lived with her. They did nothing, but sit around everyday talking about the latest celebrity gossip and they would both get crazy excited and wound up during these discussions. Needless to say, that one didn't last long lol. As a result of the masses worshipping these people and viewing them as Gods, the elite have placed them with the task of globalist, woke agenda mouthpiece. They, along with the rest of the mainstream media ARE the propaganda machine, THEY are the ones who are in charge of deluding the minds of the general population with their sick, twisted, evil, egomaniacal ideas, as a means of furthering nefarious agendas of the upper-tier elite.....the ones who are behind the scenes and REALLY run, not only this country, but the entire world. Hollywood and mainstream media, in general, is absolutely evil and really needs to be avoided.
I’m right there with you!
Unforgiven 1992 last GREAT movie long time ago. Won best movie Oscar.
Well said, they are sick propagandists, a disgusting breed. I don’t watch tv or film either and many more people are going that way.
You are absolutely correct.
People whos only topic is other people's lives are in general the worst kind of people. They have no value within themselves. They do nothing. Just exist. It's those kind of people that would still be monkeys if not for some smart people making their life easier.
Oh man, I thought I was the only thinking of this. They are paying a huge price for it. I remember I used to be so excited going to the movie theatres or even to the local movie store the rent out movies. Now I have zero interest in checking movies. Most of the time, I checking old movies lol. And I am pretty sure I am not the only one. Hollywood is done.
Sad but true
Same. I absolutely hate that woke shit.
@@seanohare5488 not sad at all. It's about damn time!
Same here and I’m Asian
No, you are NOT the only one. In fact, since the start of the pandemic I've been having a BALL!
I thought my dislike for recent movies and music was just because I was getting older but this just gives me more perspective. The movies lost their quality and watching current movies always felt like punishment. I'll rather see an old movie ten times over than a new one at least once.
Hollywood really needs to leave wokeism for social media on focus on giving us good movies
Thanks alot PB for this break down
No i dislike it too its not just you
hollywood was always about politics , the difference is that in the past they were more clever and suttlel when it was about passing their political messages
Exactly, majority of past films have had a liberal/left leaning ideology.
when i think of Hollywood, i think one of America's great fallen cities, like Seattle, New York, Portland and so many others that were great and some place where i wanted to go that was literally magical but that doesnt exist anymore.
Correct
I’ve been to Seattle and NY just before they imploded and loved it! Grew up in SoCal near LA and always wanted to go to Portland! Now you can’t give me any amount of money to go back! Or visit Portland…Ever! Hollywood has basically always been a cesspool of evil!
TOM CRUISE skipping the Oscars is such a Boss move !
What a LEGEND 😂
“The main storyline must be centered around an underrepresented group” wooooooow… really fostering creativity there.
By the way they are not making movies on the unrepresented vulnerable defenseless unborn babies murdered ruthlessly all over the country.
Sadly not yet but there is a movie coming out about the child ### traf**ing that's going on. I want to watch it but scared it might scar my soul 😢
Give this man an award🏆
Put your hands down , hollywood isn't going no where maybe that's the way they do it in Iran and growing up to hate Iran's for taking hostage u.s personal for over a year.pat what was your family doing then.
When u mentioned Thomas Edison and why they left new jersey, I nearly fell off of the toilet bowl with laughter. No-one is talking like that out there and it's just one of the reasons why I really love your podcast.I'm a new listener and I think your show is one of the best out there.keep it up broTher
I'm African born and bred in South Africa. I've never been to the US but I've been influenced by hollywood movies like most people of my generation. My view is that the rise and fall of Hollywood cannot be seen in isolation, rather It should be seen within the context of the general rise and fall of the American Empire and its global influence. This fall is manifested in all major spheres of this empire in Politics, Economy, Banking and Currency, Academia and in society and culture and the latter is where Hollywood comes in.
A lot of uneducated people on the rise. From many broken homes, trying to tell everyone what to do and how to live life. Projecting their insecurities and hatred into others. It’s awful.
Bingo
You make a case that I cannot contradict.
Pat misses that the CIA & intelligence are running aka ruining the country. Operation Paperclip infil-TRAITORS.
@Khaya Maki - Your statement sums it all up. EXACTLY 👍🏼
These people are ruining everything. Sports, entertainment, schools… Let’s GO PAT!!! Start the alternative! You guys have such an opportunity to take things back to what the people want. There’s so much money they’re losing that you will gain. We need people like you and your company. Keep it movin!!
believe me there are many wealthy people investing in new production companies. I think we will see the new movie industry based in Texas. I also think the older teens today are far more conservative and will contribute to the new found freedom in creating media and entertainment. Hollywood effed up because there is alot of new young money and they will not invest in it. Hollywood needs investors.. The script writers are also pissed and scared that AI will be replacing them.. Hollywood could easily AI everything soon as well. down to the actors. They think its gonna work. Its not
Well explained.
I have stopped going to the movies.
I have stopped buying new books.
I have stopped watching TV.
I live my life without the poison that is pushed on us...
I agree with the movies and the TV points. However, I still think there are good books out there since it is one of the least censored parts of the industry, simply because most people no longer have the patience or attention span to sit down and read a book. I personally read about 25 books a year and most are new titles from authors whose opinion or perspective I respect and appreciate.
Hollywood moved to Texas first. They didn't move straight to California. Tornadoes kept tearing up their studios so they kept looking West. LA was not the first choice . They built it in the Rancho Cucamonga area on top of an old Indian Reservation. That area was haunted by old grave sites and so many weird things happened they packed up and went to Hollywood.
Tom leykis was talking about that place many times 😂
He knew spirits were real..lol
Hence that formed the storyline for the movie ‘Poltergeist.’
They should have stayed on that reservation considering they say that they are stunning, brave and strong.
Thank God they never stayed in Texas, geez.
Scientology aside, Tom Cruise needs to be commended. He consistently delivers high-quality movies that people actually want to see. No Politics on display. Tarantino is another rare gem. He makes the movies he wants and has a faithful if smaller audience. You can always recognize a Tarantino movie. Get out of Hollywood. Get out of California. Go where you can be freely creative. Rick Dalton had to go to Italy and star in Corbucci's spaghetti westerns. It worked for him!
Ya his new mission impossible looks good
Yupp apart from his babbling of Scientology 😂
Tarantino’s Gratuitous violence is not something that raises one’s humanity. If you enjoy orgies of bloodlust you are not working toward your full potential.
Hasn't talked about scientology publicly in years
🤪🫣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Break it down ! Never heard it explained so clearly. Thanks again.
New rule: If I am not in a movie then it can not win an Oscar.
That’s right
😆
Love it!!! Me too, I’m not or even been in a movie theater in years and I don’t miss it either!! It’s a waste of my money and time!!!!
"Why is Hollywood doing this??"
THE AGENDA 💯
What is the agenda?
@James Hunt
To keep people like you asking random strangers what "the agenda" is instead of reading a book and doing independent research yourself to find out.
Here's a couple clues about where to start then no more questions:
"WEF" (World Economic Forum)
"2030 Agenda" etc...
@@Screech032 what if my “independent research” tells me something completely different to what you have read?
@@jameshunt4611
Then you're clearly not looking at the patent office or government websites.
You're just calling whatever you're doing "research" for the sake of argument.
No more questions.
@@Screech032 no more questions 🤣🤣🤣
Patrick, thank you for this.
A lot of people in Hollywood agree with you, but they don’t know what to do because they’re trying to make movies and keep their jobs. I have friends who are producers they don’t like any of the rules either. It’s idiots at the top that screwed things up the most.
The only way to stop this is to build a viable alternative that just focuses on quality content. Daily Wire is attempting to do this.
Hell even in Comic Books Eric July started his own campaign and he is signing top talent in the industry and they hate him for it.
Whats gonna happen when AI can do movies and anyone from home can do it?
Since "rural" is considered under represented then just go make movies in the rural towns. I'm sure they'd appreciate the business.
It seems a new Hollywood will spawn soon
@@rejuvinatez347 Sometimes, I believe they want AI to take the place of actors. No saleries to pay and they are program to fallow commands. People in Hollywood better wake up! They are going to be extinct!
From here on out any movie that does win an oscar you gotta wonder how much better could it have been if there wasn't so many constraints put on it being made.
This guy is an idiot! I attend Nike elite basketball camps! I don’t see any white kids that are good. In Hollywood the place I have worked in for the last 25 years. They are great black directors, actors and actresses that don’t get the nod because they are black. The issue with the world is very simple! Pick the best talent from inception then we won’t have to do these extremes to correct the issue. The reason why Hollywood is loosing their audience is because people of color are not supporting it. According to this dumbo black people make up only 12.5 of the population but out spend any racial group. Blacks also consume more entertainment than any other racial group.
I wouldn t know and don t care. Anyone that has to watch the Oscars have no life
It wouldn't have been any better. Cronyism rules.
Audiences already reject most best picture winners. Long gone are the days when a major Oscar win meant adding at least 20% to a film's overall haul.
Wait wait wait just a minute
They have LGBTQ+ as an underrepresented group in Hollywood? WTF?
They're like 90% of Hollywood & are in complete control & have been since at least the early 90's.
I live her I know. Hollywood is a backdoor entry only industry.
You and your platform is a blessing
We need a new Academy show run outside of California.
The American Entertainment Awards
stop homosexual cultures on movies!!!
My bro just graduated Newhouse Broadcast and Film Media from Syracuse, one of the top tv and film media programs in the world. His internships were in Hollywood at studios like Paramount and Newline. They not only push this woke bs behind the door, but he said the biggest impact is on anything creative or nuanced getting through the pipeline. Wheels don't turn and pieces don't fall into place because at every node in the flow, who how and why is considered and questioned halting any progress. Giving nothing the runway to get off the ground.
Great analysis and explanation..the comparison too the nba and other sports at the end was perfect
These corporations don't care about anything but the woke message
True
I can PROUDLY say that I've not watched a SINGLE Hollyweird movie in the last 21 years.
@Desert Vox
Unless you don’t have television, then I can believe you. All movies and television shows come from Hollywood.
@Desert Vox
This podcast is definitely produced by Hollywood, so you are supporting Hollywood.
@@giantsr1eva I proudly and rebelliously do NOT own a TV set, nor do I subscribe to movie streaming platforms.
@@DesertVox
That’s good to know, but I fear that Hollywood will eventually take over the internet as well.
@@giantsr1eva I have a natural disdain for Big Content. I like smaller, independent content producers, and I know several languages, and my interests are varied, so the amount of free and independent content that is available to me would require several parallel lifetimes to consume. You can't even pay me to watch Hollyweird movies or any of their Big Shows.
Great points made. Movies need to be made for the main goal of entertainment with great writing, great directing and great acting, without any hidden agendas.
I haven’t supported professional sports in almost a decade, same goes for Hollywood. I hope they continue down this road because it’s waking up people like never before. It’s a blatant agenda(s)
incel
Agree Nate, sports lost it long ago, but I stole exercise from the abusive jocks.
The best Hollywood was 50s thru the 80s....already new companies are rising in the Midwest and Tom McDonald is selling well.
Funny how there are no quotas for Asians in sports.
Well you shouldn’t support sports but it’s rigged
I agree wholeheartedly with PBD's points here. Hollywood has been dead to me for a while now. As an actor myself (with imdb credits), at the end of 2022, I chose to stop my pursuit of Hollywood. I have scripts and story concepts they would NEVER produce just based on it featuring strong male characters with old school 80's style action. On another note, I just watched a video from the California Insider called "Why California Is Losing Hollywood" with David Graves. Very interesting stuff. I also spoke about Hollywood being dead on my channel (T.O.T. episode 40). Hollywood has been the promo for Cali....but I predict that will change even sooner than anticipated. By 2035, there will be another force in the game, for sure.
Plane, Extraction 2, John Wick 4, Equalizer 3, Operation Fortune, Mission Impossible 7, Kandahar, The Killer, Fast X, The Northman...there are still movies featuring strong leading men with classic, old-school Hollywood vibes, just not as many.
Keep bringing light to these issues PBD, and please stay safe ❤
"You are guaranteed the opportunity of equality, not the opportunity of outcome"

I assume he meant equality under the law. Humans are not equal. We all have our strengths and weaknesses.
I bet Thomas Sowell wasn’t doing bad in his life
You hit it on the nail Pat! I am a Film & Television Producer from South Africa. I run a production company over here. I plan on expanding and moving to the U.S soon. I have always dreamt of staying in California, but as I have gotten older I don't aspire to anymore because of the woke culture that Hollywood is constantly trying to propagate. I plan on relocating to Florida instead. I believe the future of Media, Film, Television, and many other industries is going to be in Florida.
Regarding sports, and interests. I 1000% agree with you. That is why I am a big proponent against implementing the Quota system into sports, which is happening right here in South Africa.
Great video Pat! Thank you.
Georgia. FL has no film industry, just porn.

Why not film here in Africa?
I love Korean movies.
@@lilchaos4792Well tbf, pr0n is a BIGGER industry than Hollyweird! 🤣🤣🤣
I truly appreciate your info. You putting yourself out there is incredible. Most people talk, but their info is wrong. Ty for providing the facts and I enjoy watching and listening to you. Keep up the good work. People need to know and this is coming from a Californian:)
I haven’t watched the Oscars in decades, but I do enjoy a good story on screen. It doesn’t have to be high budget. I really enjoy a lot of these short movies available online. With that list of hoops a movie has to jump through to be nominated, the options are going to be slim, and I predict some real lousy movies winning, just because they’ve literally checked all the boxes. Looks like Hollywood is heading into her own Dark Age…
Love the way you break everything down and you go straight to the facts
Well said, we don't need bad inclusion movies, respect culture and books
RUclips>Hollywood
Both hate America, so it's a loss either way.
Hope Rumble will surpassed RUclips. RUclips isn't so great too
They both suck. Same ideologies in both.
RUclips is just as woke
@@facelessandnameless RUclips censorship may be even worse - you can't even downvote a video anymore.
I was a major cinephile for most of my life, and would see about 50-60 movies a year (often repeat viewings of something I liked). I owned about 2500 DVD's and VHS tapes, and more merchandise for my favorite films than I care to admit.
That all ended around 2015 or so, starting with The Force Awakens. It became massively apparent that Nu Hollywood was radically shifting its artistic and creative vision away from anything that appealed to me. Activism began to replace storytelling, and once I began seeing Wokeism sticking its ugly face into everything, I lost almost all interest in new films. I'm still a major film buff, but I've stopped spending any money. I simply enjoy my existing collection. I doubt I'm alone. That's a lot of money Hollywood is leaving on the table.
Lol.
Same.
💯 love western movies along other masculine movies. This new diversity bullshit is the downfall of america
Ditto
Y’all are cry babies. New Star Wars is bad but you sound just as triggered as the other side. Grow up.
I work in the Hollywood film industry and PBD is 100% right. Some of us are trying to fight this. But we need help and support. Stop buying the films and streaming services and support independent films. That's how you can fight back.
This is true Pat, Hollywood is all about the woke agenda and creativity is getting lost. For us we have to forward the movies we watch or we avoid totally after review or trailer.
No it’s not just a bunch of conservatives clowns having a fit cause they added a gay character to movie or changed the genders .
Waka jenda, please refrain from using black American vernacular when you don't even know what that word means.. but the fact is, it's either that or continue to watch white people play and Native Americans Mexicans Arab Chinese people, or they can actually use the real people
Ironically, there is the city of Hollywood in the state of Florida. Maybe a new golden era of film making should emerge in the sunshine state.
Correct.
The weather makes filming in Florida so unpredictable
Art does not blossom through guidelines. Free expression is what makes creative works of art.
Crazy part is that the first Star Wars movie was an independent 70s film
I remember when the great move in tv and movie production went to Canada in the 80's and 90's because of the outrageous cost in Hollywood. This "ratio" thing is going to burn it all to the ground. Maybe it should apply to the music industry.
Love Patrick man , he is the G , Ultra successful yet a very down to earth man , God Bless you brother .
Excellent! Let Hollywood self destruct. I'm 52 and honestly throughout the 80's, 90's, 2000's Music and Film were a large part of my life and culture. I'm also a big fan of the free market and healthy competition. Hollywood and the Corporate music industry is inevitably going to be laying next to the Legacy news media in the graveyard. There are already other upcoming studios rising up, actors and producers leaving Hollywood. Musicians like Tom Macdonald who are 100% independent and are destroying the competition. Maybe the citizens of the US should vote on also building walls around California and NYC. Letting them become the anarcho terrorist states they are becoming by design and enjoy their communist utopia. If DC doesn't regain its sanity soon and purge itself of the same mental illness it can also join Cali and NYC and the rest of the country can move forward.
I’m so happy you put this together. You’re the first one I’ve seen to give an accurate history lesson to our kids from an entertainment industry prospective. Movies music television video game have an enormous influence.
Hollywood was not always entirely Liberal and woke. May I request you use this format to do a history of television programming evolution & one on music. Remember Little House on The Prairie? Or The Waltons? The Monkeys came before the Brady Bunch. Happy Days came on at 8. Laverne & Shirley taught single girls how to survive life in the big city. About friendship & loyalty with no string attached. Boosem Buddies . Soap. Maude Gimme A Break 227. The Decon. Benson. Spin City. Night Court. Cheers where everybody knows you’re name. And unlike Twitter, They’re always glad you came . Cosby Show. (For without there would be no Raven Symone) A different World (Jasmine Guy, Lisa Binet, Jada Pinket Smith, 2Pac) The opening theme lyrics are, I know my parents love me. Stand behind me come what may. I know now that I’m ready because I finally heard them say it’s A Different World from where you come from. (I did not look them up. Every word is branded on the core of my being for 40 years. Corporate media was for old people. No one under 30 watched that crap. Maybe Nancy Grace until her mean stopped being entertaining.
My worldview was absolutely impacted in the 80s - 2000s by the Lethal Weapon Movie Series. John Stewart Daily Show. The Colbert Report. Bill Marh Real Time was our only trusted news. Rocky. Rambo. True Lies. My Body Guard. (Not to be confused with The Bodyguard)
Less the Zero.
New Jack City. Philadelphia. Jungle Fever. American History X. True Romance.
Weekend at Bernie’s. Summer School (Mark Harmon Kiresty Alley)
Gremlins
The list goes on. I could be here all day.
Until the mid 60s Entertainment was something grown ups did after the children went to bed. The rule was Children are to be seen and not heard.
Beatles, Elvis James Dean & the launch of Playboy magazine has been accused as the start of America coming apart at the seams by suggesting young people had a say over how their government was run.
The politics came into television as far as I can tell around the 60s with Mash & All in the Family. I’m not sure about Hollywood movies. Some say Gone With the Wind because nobody swore on screen until then. Movie theaters were threatened with boycotts if they dared platform profanity to the children. I love history.
Cut to 1992 at the tender age of 22. My peers & I were annotated as the voice of a new generation! The turn of the century was upon us. Y2k we called the upcoming days. Madonna went to Italy & told off The Vadican, on live TV. Because she was an American where speech & expression are free & to silence her show would be a violation of her civil liberty. it was our patriotic duty, as the youthful citizenry to join the new revolution (prince named his band that) Janet had Control & Rhythm Nation.
Everyone credits Obama for igniting the youth vote. No. Not even close. In fact I’d love to see some numbers. People talk about Trump coming down the escalator. Please.
That same year 1992
When young Bill Clinton the Hot handsome in the prime of his life Governor of stuffy conservative old Arkansas played saxophone on Arsenio Hall, I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s my generation’s Moon Landing! The Country had been handed over to the youth. The responsibility of all Boomers calamities was now our responsibility. We were convinced we were able and ready to take it on eagerly. God knows we genuinely believed we were ready. Then little by slow before we know our country is going to capsize if don’t correct from this rediculously over dramatic turn to the hard left. I’m not suggesting a complete 180. A hair to the right so we don’t sink the ship.
Politics is always downstream of culture. Because art is how you capture the hearts & minds of the people & inspire them to do great things.
💪☮️❤️😊☯️
RUclips is a Time Machine ride it while it’s still open & free.
This was a long rant. I guess you can say I got triggered in the head and all these thoughts came pouring out.
Art is no longer art when there is an agenda involved. Then it is politics, I’m not against politics but have realised how starved I am for genuine creativity and art on a collective cultural level that actually feels inspiring because of the creation and not someone’s beliefs that they want me to know about
I used to work for 20th century fox and was a top level executive assistant to the executives who were calling the shots for every movie that was produced and quit working in the film industry in 2016 primarily because of the shift in creativity and politics, but more importantly because hollywood was gearing towards politics and it was not as creative as it used to be. Also because I wanted to make money on my own and come back to the film industry by financing films which is already my goal.
Were you part of the molesters?
Well said Pat! But at this point I am beginning to think there is something more sinister at work.
Yes, demons on the loose!!
I agree
Only beginning to think?
@@paulmcgreevy3011 yes
As they ruin movies, it should become clear that movies were just a distraction in the first place, a very effective distraction that kept the population docile and compliant while their country was occupied by corrupt people. Everything that Woke destroys is something that people didn't need in the first place.
This is why i'm very much more into the Hollywood of old (Don Rickles, The Three Stooges, Rodney Dangerfield, Jackie Gleason, etc). Times have really changed.
Corporate DE&I does the opposite of what it is trying to create. Take it from me as a corporate recruiter working for one of the biggest media companies in the world based in Hollywood. Corporate gets financial incentives and ratings for having DE&I programs. It not about diversity or diversity of thought, it's' about getting kick backs, political sponsorship, and satisfying gov't contracts that corporate media has deals with.
OMG. So accurate, thank you for bringing this to my attention.
I still want to do many things with you guys.
It's over.
The last time I was into Hollywood - Blockbuster & VHS were a thing.
I wish I could do a mentorship under this man. Always on point
sheep
He lies to himself quite a bit. If you pay close enough attention you’ll see.
time to create an alternative home to film making
They'll destroy that too, these people want you dead.
Time to get back to normal and treat actors like prostitutes and low level criminals like they always were until the 19th century
Already happening....got nine films under my belt, finished my first Wampthing video last month...
I wanted to apply but I am not ready too. Many blessings to ur blessings
I remember looking forward to good movies being released. Those days are long gone. This is unbelievable.
Going to the cinema was a just an expected part of life. My family would go weekly and get excited. These days i dont even bother to check whats playing .
True, no more creativity. Too much nepotism and wokeism. Lack of professionalism, and true talent.
@@JesusSavesMerciful they have huge budgets and waste it on cgi. All u need is a good script and good actors
@@TheGreekCatholic So devastating what they have done to the industry.
@Vanderhoof1 I was watching silence of the lambs last night in my home cinema. Its crazy how far we have fallen .
@@TheGreekCatholic I was telling a friend that the new directors etc. need apprenticeships for atleast 5 yrs before taking on a project. Its little nuances that dont dont directly aascribe to films that make it more realistic. Evething is so unatural. imagine someone waking up with a full face of makeup in a movie scene, no sign of wear..lol
I fast forward through fights, chase scenes and love scenes. These are for teenagers.
Writers seem to have forgotten character driven stories. Action scenes do not propel the story.
I can’t imagine why anyone other than a 17 year old boy wants to see Mission Impossible, of which there are now 7 !
I don't watch TV anymore, except for Yellowstone. Hallmark has become diversity driven and now HGTV. So many people are feeling the same way. We are watching older tv shows or movies. Back to reading books. The commercials are a joke. I stay online most of time.
Sounds like you're still paying for cable so they are still winning.
@@DaisyChain3339. included in my rent
Great American Family Channel
@@princewellidk I have it, but they only have reruns of Columbo and Full House most of the time.
Lived and worked in Hollywood and could slowly witness the downfall .
As others have noted, while this has been happening, the quality of the movies has dropped like a rock.
I already know this will be a gem of a video
Agree, you cannot force people to be interested in a product that WE/YOU don’t care!!!! 😤😡
Thank you Pat and Team!
Hollywhaaaat?! I stopped watching those movies a while ago and agree with you all. I grew up Cali but my emotions aren’t tied to a state where other people are making terrible decisions. Thank the LORD.
😊😉all those you have mentioned 0:15 movies, i just downloaded them all from torre.... and gonna watch them all. thank you for suggestions😇😃🥰😊
With all of these set of rules on Oscars.. RIP Hollywood.
Yes wokeism promotes equity and if hollywood now woke will make lousy movies
Every single film Robin Williams was in they had a clause in his contract saying they had to hire 10 homeless people. Good stuff.
Dances With The Wolves and The Wizard of the Oz are 2 of my favorite movies. I also really like The Star Wars.
What a well written and researched video. Please keep them coming!
I like what Hollywood is doing. By introducing things that do not appeal to the consumer, the market will reward those that do. Hollywood is too influential as is. The faster they create a vacuum in the market, the better for every American and everyone influenced by our culture. The opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
Do NOT interrupt an enemy while they are busy making mistakes...
Things like this is why Canada is a popular place to film. For example our government providing incentives for filming in our major cities.
With Justin Trudeau?
@@SteveCarras From way before.
I always like the actors giving their props to the Screenwriters’ Guild strike as they fly off to New Zealand to shoot a non-union movie.
Dear Pat,
I think this is the first time I have ever commented on your videos despite being an avid listener of Value-Tainment for many years.
Even though not all information is linked with where I currently reside (Australia) it is good to know the political sphere of the United Sates as it is inherently linked with Australia with military alliance and partnerships.
I am very impressed with all of your interviews having truly no fear and inviting everyone as no one else is doing in on RUclips.
The wokeness BS is tragic and is beginning to aggressively come to Australia. It is in a way motivating me to keep building my real-estate sales, other ventures to be in such a position whereby I can speak my mind without embarrassment, control, cohesion or anything similar. Journey has begun at the late age of 32.
This may be unrealistic but is there anything that I can do for you in Australia or for anyone on your usual panel (they are all phenomenal).
Best wishes and keep up the amazing work,
Marcin D. Krysiak.
Keep up the good work man! Get that F U money and move to Thailand or Philippines
PBD’s English is so charming. I particularly like “Dances With The Wolves” and “Wizard Of The Oz.”
What a great, relatable, and informative video! The editing was awesome too!
LOVE the channel Pat. You’re a G. The questions you ask and the discussions are deep & layered, different from other channels.
He’s no G. He’s a rinky-dink goofy. Facts!
There needs to be a new system to create creative movies without including Hollywood. I feel like this could be something that a decentralized crypto with a community voting system could achieve. Let artists submit scripts, they get voted on to create, directors are voted on and budget is set. Funds are released to a voted on producer and the movie is made.
I'm from LA, and if it weren't for the weather, I wouldn't stay here another day. I love California, don't get me wrong, but the woke agenda and poor leadership are killing it. California needs to go red, at least for a term or two, to fix the stupidity that's been going around. We pay a crazy amount of taxes to lack safety in our streets and have laws that don't protect us.
Big fan of what you're doing with valuetainment and I definitely support the vision the industry needs someone like yourself to show em how its done!
I really took it for granted how great the 90s films were....wow.
Patrick you have Insight and Wisdom.
I could care less about Hollywood. I live a wonderful life with Jesus Christ as my guide! He's the Prince of Peace!! The only Prince I need!
Hallelujah
True diversity would be to let people do what they want. And there would be organic diversity, and real diversity.
They want fascist control. 'Diversity', 'Green' etc. are just control mechanisms.
You are disregarding the fact that humans are inherently biased. While there are in some ways alot of over correction involved in all of this we can't completely dismiss the notion of having some sort of checks and balance. That was the whole reason of adding the initial call for diversity. Especially for the creators who would try to add characters without doing the proper research. Creating stereotypes or a misrepresentation of a particular group for the sake of "creative freedom."
Patrick you mature like a good wine. Well done Mr Powerhouse!👏👏👏Respect from this South African🇿🇦👍
This was great Pat...very informative... ..thanks!
