"Politicians have become entrepreneurs, perhaps better yet retailers, and voters have become consumers, shoppers, and purchasers in the political supermarkets of the land."

So, Bond. Sex, guns, fast cars, sex, competition, sex, and winning. What else could our society ask for? We love it. We watch our wars on television and we eat popcorn to it. The saddest part I suppose is the nintendo aspect that was not even mentioned. I know my little brother owns atleast three James Bond 007 video games for his systems. Again, just starting younger and younger. I always thought that the funniest thing about those video games is the fact that after you kill a bad guy, they dissappear. How could you sell violence with dead bodies?!? Lets get for real here. Who wants to play a video game where it is realistic. Where the 55 people you just killed are sprawled out on the floor and you have to walk around them to leave. Thats another thing! We don't just glorify violence and love it up with butter on top, but we also exaggerate the possibility. I don't know about anyone else in this room but I know I can't take out a room full of people all by myself. It isn't just the bond movies and games though. Like the author pointed out about Apocolypse Now. There is Saving Private Ryan, BlackHawk Down, etc...etc.. We watch excited and cry at the end. Not because it actually happened somewhere else, somewhere real, but because Josh Hartnett got hurt. Excuse me while I vomit. In those video games that portray the wars, the bodies dissappear as well. Gee, How convienent. "No wonder his version was so easy to market:a clean war is a much easier sell than its dirty rival."
Like I mentioned earlier, I think sex is a major selling point on the wars in the movies. What is the movie called with Josh Hartnett and Ben Affleck? The movie isn't even about the war anymore it is about their confusing love triangle. EVERYONE EVERYWHERE SIGN UP FOR THE WAR YOU CAN SLEEP WITH HOT NURSES. I'm so there.
