Air Force One if you see Radek as the good guy trying to save the Soviet Union from American market imperialism.

The Matrix is an anarchist critique of Marxism-Leninism.
Humans live in a communist society, ruled over by a benevolent machine party-state. The law of value is abolished, the humans contribute according to their ability (body heat and electricity) and receive according to their need (nutrients + the simulated dreamworld). It's outright stated that only reason the Matrix isn't a paradise is that the human mind wouldn't accept a perfect world, so they had to make it 90s-styled instead.

The human protagonists are individualist anarchists who are nonetheless discontented with the hierarchical machine-state, and the sequels are all about them trying to set up their own autonomous commune-city and survive the machines trying to Kronstadt them.

Yeah. Dude is a criminal that gets dumped by Fidel and immediately shows that he's a hypercapitalist psycho who's willing to deal drugs and murder people for a big mansion and a decadent lifestyle.

Also Sosa is literally a glowie-backed international drug lord who conspired with his "friend from Washington" to kill a dude who was planning to tell the world about the operation.

oh man, i always have some good examples but i forget :(

The Saw series in general is pretty communist Tbh
>Saw V explicitly shits on capitalist bitches as any socialist would have easily passed the tests with ease
>Saw VI dunks on the head of an insurance company, along the way punishing proles complicit with porky
>Main colors are red and black obviously symbolizing Left Unity
>Frequently dunks on labor aristocrats
>Uses abandon buildings(capitalist shortcomings) as bases
>Main villain initially started foundation to low income housing and helped support wife with clinic for the poor
>radicalized after cancer diagnosis and takes war to corrupt society of whores
>Casually kills cops and explicitly corrupt cops with little to no distinction,as in the end they are just the tools of the bourgeois
>Doesnt discriminate against lumps as well, frequently using them to his own end both by manipulation and radicalization
>Kills American doctors casually nuff said
>Series concludes with the Feds getting slaughtered

Not exactly communist
But this scene perfectly encapsulates the porky to wageslave dynamic

>golden god dines in fruits

>follower starves to death
>There is no eternal reward (capitalist propaganda where you'll get rewarded for being a good little wagie and get a house, own business what not)
>i renounce you! golden cuck immediately goes violent
>your only purpose is to suffer (generate profit)
>if you die, more will replace you (insane number of workers to exploit in the current world)

only way he gets defeated is behading
Marx failed to consider the necrosword

>Saw V explicitly shits on capitalist bitches as any socialist would have easily passed the tests with ease
could you explain? i have not seen it
what's the test exactly

>>29590
>could you explain? i have not seen it
each test could have been solved with no deaths /minimal maiming. Will post some clips before describing
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=4MtXqM1moLo
>1st test required a key to unlock their collars in time or they would be decapitated, with each person leashed to one another
>instead of thinking of sharing/testing one the keys, each fumbles for their own key directly in front of them
Kinda obvious, would probably have tested/asked/given a key to see if it fit any other collar
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=8BgcozieWuE
>2nd test required them to find 3 keys to gain access to 3 separate areas which would protect them from the room's bombs. For reason they dont think they can share these areas that can easily more than 1 person and instead immediately betray each other
Tbh this one was really obvious
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=FnmbPDYmz0E&listen=false
>3rd test required persons to electrocute themselves to connect power to gain access to the next room before current room blows up. u can guess what happens
https://invidious.rhyshl.live/watch?v=BorDZlwWZb0
>final test required many pints of blood via hand thru circular saw blade. theres 2 person instead of the 5 or so…
probably the most clever film of the franchise, not my favorite however.

sauce? looks interesting as fuk

>>29591
you know what, this saw series can also be a commentary on "muh nature argument"

like people don't turn into barbarous savages just because, being put in conditions like these where resources are limited like capitalism

i would be so dead if i was in saw 5, riddles and math are not my strong suit
i hated all folk stories with it, just smarmy ass stuff


>sauce? looks interesting as fuk

Thor Love & Thunder, believe it or not, it's the same movie
Taika drops in some redpilled stuff between the jokes

The last Thor had stuff about imperialism and how empires are built on blood and then covered up in nice sounding fairy tales

White maoist hands typed this post.

>>29601
we should start a website like that
leftypolreviews

>like people don't turn into barbarous savages just because, being put in conditions like these where resources are limited like capitalism
Yep actually thought that once about some of the absurd situations applied to the contestants and alot of circumstances we find ourselves in are purely arbitrary. Nice read,anon thanks for the sauce too


>>18188
The whole plot of the movie is that the rich kid stops a revolution by mediating between the "heart and the hands"

I'd consider it hard core liberal at most

b movies can be indirectional considered communist

because they're
a) unproffessional
b) low budget (lol)
c) scare normies

>>31565
indirectionally

I disagree.

Same argument as "The Borg are communism!"

>>38686
They were in their initial appearance, before they introduced dumb shit like borg queen and made them generic evil alien swarm.

>>38687
No, they really weren't. That is literally a right-wing narrative about "le gommie hivemind"

>>38689
Collective decision-making is good actually.

Alright fam time to prove your convictions by getting into the pod.

>>38743
I dont remember Matrix working like that. But in all seriousness, if there was an actual option to join a cyborg hive-mind, I would take it, why not?

>>18188
Thea von Harbou, author of the novel and wife of Fritz Lang, later worked for the Nazis and wrote a bunch of propaganda films for them. The extent to which she was really a Nazi gets disputed, but I'm not trying tl dispute it. The thesis of the film, how the heart must unite the mind with the muscle, seems pretty clearly more fascist than communist. It's not about the destruction of class, but the process of getting classes to work towards a common aim.

>>38689
You're correct, but that's what it was. The Borg were written near the end of the cold war, and they were a metaphor for the soviets. You can find TNG writers talking about it. The fact that Star Trek as a franchise has earlier positive portrayals of collectivism doesn't change this.

>>38748
The borg are (or were) about consumerism and yuppie culture.

>>30386
>I'd consider it hard core liberal at most
so, fascist?

>>29271
Too bad the movie fucking sucks

>>42472
No it doesn't.

The Woman on Pier 13 (1949)
https://vimeo.com/358123327

I guess 120 Days of Sodom is technically communist

>>17022
This movie makes me so fucking angry, it plays like a communist movie in the beginning and then goes full nazi.

>>16962
avatars politics are so hamfisted that anyone could see them.

>>42700
Avatar is anti-colonial and even anti-capitalist but it's not communist.

>>16960
How the fuck could you watch Come and See and not realize it's communist

>>42707
Arguably the Navi have primitive communism… kinda?

>>42713
They have a chief, and anprim isn't really communism. The movies just don't really posit an alternative to Earth's extractivist hypercapitalism, just that it's bad and needs to be fought. That's still a good message but it's not communist in itself.

>>42716
Having an elected chief isn't inherently out of step with communism

File: 1719147890369.jpg (92.7 KB, 255x378, Poor_Things_poster.jpg)

>Ctrl+f "Poor Things"
It's a very obvious metaphor for the beginnings of class consciousness in the West in the 19th Century.
The Favourite is similarly Marxist because of that final shot where the pet rabbits (us) multiply and overtake the screen.
