No, what i mean is the type of movies and TV shows that tend to shape society's thinking, short subtle then building steam as an idea gets accepted.
In the 60's it was J Wayne winning WW!! with the rat patrol, and I can still argue on here with some that it was a world effort.
In the 80's 90's we started seeing negros in places of power, and I honestly thought that Powell was being groomed as a future POTUS after this.
On sesame street Bob had a special friend, that was 92, started a thinking process of gays being ok, till then gay bashing was a kind of acceptable no-no, and then they started coming out of the closet
Now movies are coming out with all kinds of short quips on 9/11 and conspiracy, are they getting the gen. pop. to get used to this as sh it might hit the fan ???
Hollywood shapes thinking in subtle ways 10 years before it happens.

My husband and i were talking about that the other day!
When we were kids, we watched Popeye, which was a pretty violent cartoon when you think about it. BUT we KNEW it was a cartoon. Just like the movies, we knew it was fiction, and that John Wayne didn't tame the wild wild west, nor did he win WWII with the rat patrol.
What has happened since we were kids, that today's children and even young adults can't tell the difference in reality and entertainment?
Did video games start it all?
I rarely watch any of the new movies. Harry Potter doesn't fascinate me, nor does Spiderman, it's all garbage today, IMO!
Also, IMO, people who allows Hollywood to shape their thinking have something wrong with them.

Also, IMO, people who allows Hollywood to shape their thinking have something wrong with them.....how true, but I got negged by many on another thread when I said that because 60% of Americans preferred to watch American Idol rather than who will be the next possible POTUS, they don't care.
On here people make a comment on what they believe in, so they care, but that is less than 40%
And A.Idol is hollywood at its finest, a no brainer

I have never watched American Idol, nor do i watch any of the reality shows. I could care less if the stars know how to dance, and people who go from working behind a desk to trying to survive in the jungles of the rain forest are NUTS!
