nowadays, the movies hollywood churns out all seem to be glorifying the U.S. in their defence of against some sort of internal or external threat
a few examples would be transformers, battleship, battle for LA
and so on and so forth
now people with even an inch of depth will criticize these movies saying they're all violent, monotonous bullshit that will only entertain the dumbest of dumbies (which unfortunately is quite alot of people)
regardless, what these proponents fail to mention is that these movies serve a dual purpose
michael bay, james cameron, all those high end directors who invest hundreds of millions of dollars in these blockbusters arent just creating these special effects action films for the entertainment of the western audience
these films, their other more secretive role is concerned primarily
with deterrence
deterrence of emerging foreign powers... namely china
now to put things in perspective, im going to highlight the astronomical rise of china through their 10 percent GDP rise for the past decade or so, almost equally as impressive as their allocation of funds towards the military, now im not gonna quote any military statistics cos quite simply i dont know them but its safe to say that China's balls are growing every day.
Now, once China has the capabilities to match the U.S. militarily, thats when its game over for America
America doesnt have the manpower or the "lack of ethics" to match China
China will eventually surpass America
Now how can America respond to this looming threat of the once inferior yellow man.
Well, one way is through the film industry.
They make these massive films displaying the U.S. military at their finest in order to deter China and/or other enemies.
Quite simply, its all about ensuring that China never has the willpower, the balls, to actually confront America.
This method of consistent ball-shrinking is what Hollywood is all about.
Now you might think, oh, China has spies everywhere.
They know what the U.S. military is like
Well truth be told, no one actually knows how advanced the U.S. military is.
Experts theorize that the quality of the U.S. military is 20-30 years of research and technology ahead of everyone else.
So the best prediction we have of the strength of the U.S. military strange enough could be what we see in the movies
anyways this is just a thought, its not the first time the American government has penetrated the film industry to influence foreign aggressors, Rambo, Red Dawn and etc are all other films that openly condemned the Soviets during the Cold War. The only difference is that, in this current globalized world, it is much more crucial to be subtle.
