Here's why: it is my opinion that The Patriot is nothing more than a revenge tale packaged in an American history wrapper. It's 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.

==The Day After Tomorrow==
The movie not only upholds the theory of global warming but has a plot revolving around human activity (ie releasing of CO2 into the atmosphere) causing an ice age which brings worldwide destruction. It is, in effect, the fictional twin to ''An Inconvenient Truth'' (if that didn't already contain enough fiction). Given the entry contained deceit (claiming that the movie portrayed human activity against global warming as bringing about the ice age, which is totally false) then it is clearly a parody added to sully the entry, and the contributor should be blocked.
