Be Wise When Watching Movies - Modern Day Agendas Still Prevalent to Brainwash
Many moviegoers go to the cinema not just for entertainment but also to find solace in familiar storylines that speak directly to them. Common movie plots may be clichéd at times, but they remain timeless because they offer comfort and hope during difficult moments in our lives. Whether it’s a heartwarming romance or an inspiring tale of overcoming the odds, these stories give us the courage to keep going when we feel like giving up. By reflecting our values and beliefs, there are many movie plots that have become a powerful influence on society continuing to shape our culture today.
However, there have been many disturbing movies that soon after their release unfortunate incidents occurred leaving people wondering whether tragic national and international events had been manufactured. Many sickness, disease and vaccine related movies had been released for years leading up to an actual pandemic. Movies where characters were having to isolate or were forcibly isolated from illness, natural disasters, or psychopaths holding them hostage were highly marketed as we neared 2020. In recent years, movies involving water whether groups of people being attacked in water, fighting in water, accidents involving water, water exploration, or water creating massive flooding killing individuals have been in abundance.
Technological failures using outdated equipment so as to introduce yet another AI invention have also been prevalent in movie plots. However, movie manufactured events or human errors used to control weather, ground planes, and more are acting as indicators of what is to come and what is already here that has caused crashes, explosions and destruction in communities.
Movies have been a powerful influence on society ever since the first silent movie was released in 1895. From classic plots like the hero’s journey to more modern stories, certain plotlines have emerged as popular themes throughout film history. These common movie plots have shaped our culture and expectations of cinematic storytelling while also reflecting our values and beliefs. So knowing how impactful movies are, one can infer that many minds are being changed to go with whatever elitists want to convey. They have the finances to create what they want,while the average moviegoer has only the finances to watch what is being put out on the Internet and elsewhere.
One of the most enduring plotlines is the rags-to-riches story, where an underdog protagonist overcomes adversity to achieve success or fame. Films such as Rocky (1976), Pretty Woman (1990) and Slumdog Millionaire (2008) all follow this formula and offer uplifting messages about hard work paying off in life. This type of narrative reinforces our belief that anyone can achieve their dreams with determination and perseverance. Yet, we are also seeing a dark side with many movies who have characters and plots that continue to perpetuate certain stereotypes, control consumer buying habits and encourage addictions (like an increase of characters smoking and eating greedily).
Abuse whether physically beating up people or shooting them is scene often in movies. Periodically, there is an increase of movies where African American celebrities appear to be shamed by: taking on a role once again where they are: being ridiculed for the color of their skin, appear as slaves, dressing as women when they identify with being male, and performing despicable acts that have long been discouraged by elders all in the name of entertainment and a big paycheck.! Some movies have done a lot to show strong minority characters in leadership roles and women as heroes. However, for the elitist establishments to maintain superiority, their may be a plot in that hero movie showing minorities and women still needing to rely on white men to make decisions for them: good, bad or otherwise.
Satanic influence in movies is often displayed subtly or quite boldly through signs, colors, worship, and sacrifice. Morals and ethics are challenged or dismissed by characters that have no moral compass and live wickedly. Drugs, alcohol, sexual immorality, fighting, cheating, stealing, lying and more is all-too common place in movies.
Another popular movie trope is the classic romantic comedy, which often centers around two people overcoming obstacles in order to get together. Films like When Harry Met Sally (1989), The Wedding Singer (1998) and Love Actually (2003) all provide a heartwarming message about the power of love, along with lots of laughs. These stories remind us that true love exists and that it’s worth fighting for. On the other hand, there are many movies that are showing unpopular love interests and behaviors that most moviegoers do not want to see. There is often confusion in relationships that doesn’t resonate with many audiences. After watching some of these so-called romantic films, it is clear that those who created these movies doesn’t have a full understanding of the fruit of th Spirit and what it truly means to love others.
Finally, there are many movies out there that feature an inspirational protagonist who makes tough decisions in order to “do the right thing”. Think Erin Brokovitch (2000), To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) or Schindler’s List (1993). These stories show us that even in the darkest of times, it is possible to choose the path of morality and integrity. When we think of modern day movies, we are once again being led, like years past into a mindset that is welcoming of the elitists’ agenda. Political movements, religious movements, women movements, black lives matters movement, and more are good when they are good, but what seems to be happening off the movie screen is a war of good and evil and it appears at times like evil is winning.
In conclusion, common movie plots have had a tremendous impact on our culture. They can be entertaining and inspiring, offering valuable lessons about life while reflecting our values and beliefs, but also dark, disturbing, riddled with agendas, and simply not enjoyable to view. Movies are often said to be a reflection of society, and these repeating plotlines certainly prove this point.
