Are the distributors of Oppenheimer so tone deaf & greedy that they didn't see this coming? How many ticket sales do they really expect to profit from?

Japan was defeated, occupied, and then politically, economically and socially reformed. Unfortunately, this humbling and humiliating re-education will continue as long as there is 'Pearl Harbor'. Hollywood might even consider a remake of the 2001 movie for its centenary commemoration in 2041. Perhaps the talented Sir Christopher Edward Nolan CBE will be interested in making this into another Award-winning billion dollar documentary film?

Totally... it's like, how much do we have to twist the knife?? We frickin won, so give it a rest already. I think the saddest interview in the article above was the kid saying something like "The movie showed me that the American perspective is that the bomb was a good thing."

Truth be told, I think most Americans do believe the bomb was a good thing, and that it was necessary to "save lives" or whatever propaganda the movie pushes. Welp... I guess the winner always gets to rewrite history.

Coming soon... Sir Nolan's documentary on how "the slaves benefited from slavery" 😬
