Comment on If the movie Falling Down with Michael Douglas was made today in these times would it be too meta on the current society? Or would it be seen as trying to push an agenda?
He isn’t intentionally portrayed as heroic in the movie, but a lot of MAGA adjacent people have come to see him as heroic.
MAGA and adjacent think Homelander was heroic. Their grasp on morality is tenuous at best. Violence over virtue is their only belief system, and if it hurts people, who cares, they go to church so they can’t be responsible for the consequences.
