John wayne, like most people had his take on things. You must also remember that he lived in the civil rights era. It was a different time. Not saying I would ever agree with him on that. I just liked the way he acted in that style of movies. Yes, there are better movies like young guns 1 &2, outlaw Josey Wales, and others. But you can't take away from what John didNo one even said anything about your silly ‘girl’ shaming post
But you are free to say why you like John Wayne and you can even add why you think it’s important to give him acclaim knowing how **** he was

I am not offended at all. I am skimming through the thread during lunch. I just find it humorous when people take such strong stances in threads like this.Nah, man. We're all asserting opinions for the most part. But it is your choice to get offended or not.

Imo, the greatest compliment given to Elvis came from Eddie Murphy.It was more than his look though. Elvis was a stud no doubt...but it was his style, his voice...it was the entire package. He also had numerous hits. Certainly you can say that some singers had a better voice, but you can’t ignore the entire package. The same applies to many other iconic individuals through history. Yes, good marketing...but good marketing only gets someone so far...otherwise there would be thousands of Elvis Presley’s and John Wayne’s walking around...and there are not. The same can apply to modern artists. Beyoncé is a great singer...but she couldn’t hold a flame to many other modern singers. But she is among the most attractive women in the world...with a persona that drives her legend. I’m fine with people considering her among the great women singers of all time because you can’t ignore her success and sales.
Great post.I am not offended at all. I am skimming through the thread during lunch. I just find it humorous when people take such strong stances in threads like this.
My post was an attempt to keep the thread light-hearted. I enjoyed the Jeff Bridges remake. I enjoyed and continue to enjoy John Wayne movies. My moral compass is not swayed because of an actor/actress/public personalities personal beliefs or actions. Sometimes I may not agree with them but that doesn't mean I go on rants about how they don't deserve accolades from their professional career.
I didn't care for the Kapernick storyline but do I think that there isn't racism still in today's society or did it stop me from watch the NFL?
I like Mel Gibson movies. Do I agree with his stance on the Jewish Fatih?
Would you believe that I have Marylin Manson songs on my Spotify playlists?
I don't care for Sean Penn at all. I think that he is full of it but damn do I love me some Spicoli.
It is entertainment and I treat it as such. Take Hollywood and Politics with a grain of salt and you will find a little less stress in your life.

When he walked into a room it became silent. Everyone was paying attention to Elvis.
I get that and like I said made no comments until your (faux) umbrageI am not offended at all. I am skimming through the thread during lunch. I just find it humorous when people take such strong stances in threads like this.

And tbc while I will stop consuming artist products for beliefs/actions, that bar is fairly high
I don’t agree with James woods or Clint Eastwood or any number of conservative leaning voices, but I still enjoy their work
John Wayne, Mel Gibson, Woody Allen, Kevin Spacey are wholly different than that - they are poisons who offer far more harm than benefit- and I see no issue pointing this out and saying ‘hey, instead of watching John Wayne shoot up injuns for the 1000th time, is there another movie from that time you might also enjoy’?
But the thread is about giving acclaim to a mediocre talent who was a horrible human beingThat is your personal preference and you have the right to change the channel 100% and no one would fault you for it.

No reason to keep that light under a bushel, I don’t think
What is the greatest john wayne movie of all time.
This thread is about
Where did David Robins say "Let's discuss the merits of John Wayne's acting and his personal life?" This is like going into SSF thread about the Saints Super Bowl Victory and saying that we should not have liked watching Darren Sharper because he was a serial rapist.
Sometimes a shallow thread doesn't need to turn into the deep end of the pool.
Before or after he was president?No, he wasn't. For the type of roles he played, he was perfect. Western, war movies were perfect for him. And, when he teamed up with John Ford he excelled
