How will movies be like during the Obama Presidency?

I think there were too many war movies during the last 8 years.

I want to see change (I know that's cliched) in movies.

What kind of changes do you think we'll see?

What changes do I think we'll see.
We will see more black presidents for one thing.
There will be no more films or TV shows (ie. 24) were they can have the first black President.



Not being American I don't take too much notice of the elections.
Why are you so sure Obama will be President.

Obama has already won the Presidency. The way the system works over here is that you have to win the electoral college to be the President and he did just that.

I'm just looking forward to less films about wars. and, I think there will be less films stereotyping blacks, or, praising people who are minorities, as, they no longer really, in my mind, are minorities.

Well last night I saw an ad for the new 24 two hour special featuring the Black President, I am so going to watch it! I always thought that 24 had some kind of reality to it...

That's interesting. When is it going to be on?

do you think that the movie viewing public appetite is influenced by republician or democratic voting?

does that influence export to overseas?

I seriously doubt that a black president will make any difference in what movies will be made. It's all about money and the films that the producers think will make money are the ones that will be shot.

Movies are in preproduction sometimes years before they are shot.

The people that ultimately decide what movies the American public will see are mostly older Jewish fellows and if they feel that movies about people that slaughter iguanas will make money....

"Blood, Guts, and Iguanas"

"Biker Iguanas from Hell"

"Blair Iguana Project"

"Terminator, The Iguana years"

My prediction is that Westerns will come back big time.
And CGI sci-fi will remain strong.

The reason I mention Westerns is because...
Look at the guy behind Paul Sarvino in the last part of the trailer; thats me!
