just a reminder that this movie is straight up propaganda

[lone_concertina]

I know nothing about it - how so?

[maltwhitman]

produced by the obamas. i read the movie wiki and it's sensationalist garbage.

do you mean the part about leaflets in arabic? because the wiki is poorly written and leaves out a lot. it's also revealed in the movie that leaflets in chinese or koren are released in another part of america and mahershala ali's character explains this is part of a plan to spread disinformation to destabilize the country. it's never explained who is behind everything. this is why you shouldn't base your opinion of a movie off of its wikipedia page.

it was a book first tho, do you think barack held a gun to the author's head to put out something that would benefit them? lmao

Propaganda for what? Physical media like DVDs?

[lone_concertina]

Yeah I just read the wiki and it sounds dumb as hell but I don't see how it's propaganda

[solsty]

It’s too dumb and vague to be propaganda

[lone_concertina]

Like everything Obama, it stops short of fulfilling the expectations you had for it

[crimps4]

Perfect way to put it

[murphyboy11]

Physical media forever.

[starchit]

I mean, lowkey? There's some light islamphobia, but it's also explained away as a bigger, vaguer power. I also don't trust the Obamas so

[syvlie0o0]

lmfao you're insane.

It’s a better version of Cabin in the Woods so the only real propaganda is yet another film that should’ve released in cinemas but Netflix put it straight to streaming

[helliosx]

How is it better than Knock at the Cabin? Besides LTWB having much bigger names, and much bigger budget, and having better cinematography, it fails as a movie for me. Besides, Cabin has twice as high audience score on Rotten.
