american culture ended somewhere in the 30's to be replaced by modern globalist entertainment
Nathaniel Price
That's the only culture that exists, wearing wooden shoes, sitting in really hot cuckshed or being a manlet in tard hat doing tingtong noises is not a culture.
Not seethe at me in my language.
Elijah Brown
a man with a pot on his head picking apples and planting the seeds, that sounds more kino than the past 5 movies to win the oscars
Ian Cook
He was our American Dionysus
Lucas James
there aren't many films about 'folklore' in general. Plus, most of our folklore from Europe didn't end once our ancestors reached these shores so cinderella, snow white all the grimm stuff carried over.
anyways there's plenty of films about the founding fathers.
good ones.

but ever since china funded higher ed departments started overdoing the 'let's point out flaws in the system' shit, people see America and it's common myths that unite us all as 'cringe' and are shuffled off down a funnel to prefer 'exotic' stuff to make mass immigration (lower wages, union busting) more palatable

I’d kill for a good John Henry adaptation. It’s got one of the strongest metaphors of all the folk tales. A Johnny Appleseed movie would be cool, too, but one that actually focused on the man and his beliefs.

no such thing UKuck
Jaxson Stewart
Johnny appleseed, Paul Bunyan, John Henry, all kino.
Eli Butler
You could do a really cool action/fantasy story with Pecos Bill. The trick is not making him the MC. You make the MC a greenhorn that thinks he’s just full of shit, a la Baron Munchausen.
Caleb Cook
if it was 1950 America would be capable of accepting these stories. as things are, the nation is too goyslopped, retarded, and disgusting to take them seriously without hissing and mocking them, even as childrens stories
Nathan Lee
It'll just end up looking like a weird hybrid of capeshit and Western. No one's taking a chance after Disney's Lone Ranger and WB's Jonah Hex failed
Nathan Wilson
Not if you get the right guys to write/direct it, and those guys are the Coen brothers.
Asher Collins
How soon we forget
Luis Jackson
Jonathan Chapman was a real person.
Ryder Peterson
Get it while its hot suuuuuuweeeeeee!
Ian James
The only people who say this are self-hating Americans that think culture is wearing exotic outfits and having alternative tastes
Adrian Williams
johnny appleseed, certified american retard.
