Russian Communists Call For Boycott Of Crystal Skull


QUOTE
Members of Russia's dwindling Communist Party have called for a nationwide boycott of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which opened on Thursday. In particular, they object to the depiction of Soviet troops invading top-secret American installations, killing guards and wreaking havoc. As reported by the London Sunday Times, the Communists claim that no Soviet terrorists were ever sent to the U.S. in 1957, the year in which the movie's plot takes place. Instead, they said, the government successfully launched the first Sputnik satellite, "which evoked the admiration of the whole world." The Sunday Times quoted Moscow Communist lawmaker Andrei Andreyev as saying, "It is very disturbing if talented directors want to provoke a new Cold War." And Reuters quoted St. Petersburg Communist Party chief Sergei Malinkovich as saying, "Why should we agree to that sort of lie and let the West trick our youth?." He said that "they will go to the cinema and will be sure that in 1957 we made trouble for the United States and almost started a nuclear war."


I seriously laughed out loud. It's fiction. Anyways, what's your opinion?

if they watch a movie they need to realize whether or not it is a true story or not, in this case not, so why overreact

It's bad enough we have to be "Politicaly Correct" in reality, now we have to in our fictions and fantasies. What about the James Bond movies that featured Soviet Russians? I don't remember hearing any boycott when those movies came out rolleyes.gif

I'm sure these Russian Communists still idolize Joseph Stalin huh.gif
