, 14:43, August 5, 2008Recommendation for the addition of two movies to the list and removal of one
::::::::Excuse me, Mr. Schlafly, but you criticize me for my talents as a "movie reviewer" and disparage my comment on the second amendment, when you created the site that condones criticizing Mark Wahlberg because of something his character did in a movie? Seems you are the one making sweeping generalization about a small point in a movie. --[[User:JMarks|JMarks]] 23:51, 24 May 2008 (EDT)

== Recommendation for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to be added to the list ==
Here's why: it like Star Wars (and even moreso) is a simple movie of good and evil. The villian of the movie engages in sorcery. The hero prays. The villian is sent to her death by a timely lightening strike from above.
== Recommendation for Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World to be added to the list ==
Here's why: it tells a story that focuses on duty. At one point, the ship's doctor voluntarily passes on his personal goals in order to alert the captain of the presence of the enemy ship. Only unpleasant aspect is overly violent final fight.
== Recommendation that The Patriot be removed from the list ==
Here's why: it is my opinion that The Patriot is nothing more than a revenge tale packaged in an American history wrapper. Death Wish meets Johnny Tremain. One issue that makes the movie unpleasant is that Mel Gibson's character speaks out against an American separation from Britian at the beginning. He only becomes a patriot when his son is killed, giving the message that patriotism relates to a "not in my backyard" mentality.
