I'm not the one cherry picking here.  Care to point out these right leaning messages in the film, like I picked out the woke politics in Terminator?  And no, just because the bad guys are Mexican cartel, doesn't make it right leaning.

Lol.  You realize having a black lead or a female lead does not make a film a woke one, right?

Many reviewers have pointed out Rambo has a right leaning agenda, not a heavy one, but neither really does Terminator.

No one wants to see either of that shit because no one wants to see a 70 year old action hero, plain and simple. 

Young movie goers have liberal politics by and large by the way, they voted overwhelmingly against Trump, it's not 65-70 year old white people that go to the movie theater to begin with, and the no.1 movie going group per capita in the US is Latinos, lol, so "woke" politics is not keeping people away when the majority of movie goers are more on the liberal side of things anyway. 

Trump supporters are not the majority, he lost the damn popular vote by 3 million and the ratio was much larger among people 18-40. If you're trying to insinuate the majority of movie goers are "Trump conservatives" you're flat out wrong. They are the minority. 

Oh, so in other words, you have no examples?  And, yes, Terminator did.  I gave several examples within the film and the director's own words show it.  And people still came out to watch Rocky Balboa.  And all the old action stars in the Expendables franchise.  And Bruce Willis in Die Hard 4 and 5. 

And you keep that dream alive of most people liking woke politics over good storytelling and characters.  I'll continue to laugh as these films fail.

Not sure what Trump has to do with this.  Whether you know it or not, not everything has to involve Trump.
