Brad Pitt speaks against Hollywood Status Quo: Banking Cartels should be held accountable

7

A recent screening of The Big Short, a new film that Brad Pitt and fellow co-stars Christian Bale, Steve Carell and Ryan Gosling starred in, has exposed the banking elite and their corruption. The film takes on their unaccountable nature, following the credit crash and housing bubble collapse through four outsiders wanting to take on the big banks responsible.

Brad Pitt, with the film’s director Adam McKay, during a screening this week, both revealed their motivations to do the film ran deeper than just entertainment. “We did a screening . . . Nancy Pelosi was there . . . We talked about that. It’s the oldest scam . . . [Bankers] tell the leaders, ‘If you put us in jail, you’ll ruin the economy,’ said McKay, ‘I think Obama has done a lot of good things, but I think one of the big black marks on his presidency is that no one went to jail.”

McKay acknowledged the difficult task of educating people through Hollywood film, noting most films tend to “prop up the status quo and refuses to challenge the paradigm.” He went as far as criticizing Obama for his lack of action and failure to prosecute those bankers involved.

Pitt also voiced his disgruntlement with the banking cartels when asked if they should have been held accountable. “I’m as frustrated as you are . . . I think it’s horrible that no bank officials have ever been held accountable. Therefore, there’s no incentive to stop this behavior.”

  1. Id like to know what these “good things” that he thinks Obama did? I can not for the life of me think of even one.

    I do have a hell of a long list of bad things though.

    • I found myself asking the exact same question…. and found zero answers. As in zero accomplishments and zero to be proud of. Obummer

    • Me three. He’s a talker I guess. Big fuckin’ deal. Obamacare? Same old shit repackaged. He’s black, that’s his main accomplishment.
      I had Hope before, i’ll have hope after.The Change is in his pocket.
      I hope the whole thing blows up in their faces so we can start from scratch.

  2. They are coming for your cash next. Everyone is going to have to use a card in our coming cashless society. Already going on in Sweden. Cash will be illegal. Then they take whenever they want it. Simple huh? Poof!lol.

  3. Gloria Steinem and I quote, “If all the Republicans in Congress had fatal Cancer and President Obama had the cure, they would turn him down!!!” Think about it, very sad but this bigoted country was not ready for a black man as their leader.
