The biggest change I've seen in MOPO is how little movie poster conversation takes place and how much conversation takes place about how MOPO has changed. Seriously.
I love MOPO, but we seem to forever be talking about "what MOPO has become".

I havent seen any real change in MoPo. There have always been times when people get testy over various issues. Anyone who posts an opinion should be prepared to accept that some may not agree with that opinion.

Rich I couldn't agree more its gotten so its not worth stating a view unless you want to listen to a tirade from those that disagree and even those that agree. Back in the sixties when I was quite active in politics we would strongly support our cause and end up in the same bars enjoying a drink or three with the opposition. It was civil AND FUN.

FRANC I couldn't agree more with this the reality is that when you have certain tv stations, radio hosts and other leaders spilling vitriol on a daily basis it permeates throughout. One major over-riding factor however is this: people have come to believe that everything they think is right IS while thinkng everything other people think about IS NOT. It's an inability to look objectively ate things and understand there is give and take, what's good for the goose is what's good for the gander and regardless of whether you agree with your opposites or not, you're supposed to treat people with mutual respect as well as respect the beliefs of your opposites. it isn't confined to America, but admittedly our nation is a hotspot for such behavior Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
