New TV Forums Launched

Is Chrysler’s Ad Obama Propaganda?

Chrysler’s Super Bowl ad starring Clint Eastwood has somehow become a lightning-rod for conservatives, who claim it was actually payback to the Obama administration for the Detroit bailout package.

The Lorax – 2012 – Movie Trailer

Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me) brings us what looks like a fairly loose interpretation of Dr. Seuss’ iconic environmentalism fable.
