Why" Gone With The Wind "is the worst movie of all time

Gone With The Wind is the worst movie of all time, not just that it happens to be my ex-wife's favorite movie, that was one of the few character flaws she had, but when broken down in a series of reality checks the movie is a racists fairy tale, a red necks anthem, a hillbillies prayer.
1. The south lost, no one has told Alabama or Georgia yet, but they did.

2. Slaves did not have undying love for their masters, it's called Stockholm syndrome.

3. Hattie McDaniel did not deserve the Oscar for that role, she was so much more talented than that, Blues Singer and Shakespearean actor. The Academy gave her that award to allow studios to keep black actors in buffoonary roles. So George Clooney, I know you meant well by mentioning her award as philanthropic at the 2006 Oscars, but sometimes you are an idiot, proof?......Oceans 12. There was an underground of Black Cinema that the Academy could have grabbed any performance from that was not just for redneck amusement, but for true craft.

4. Scarlet was a flat out bitch... not one redeeming quality, I mean if there was a hint of antipathy, or one sign of empathy from her, we would have a movie, but what we see is a dated, tired ideal of a males view of what a powerful woman is, yes I know the writer was female, still did you have see her? It would be hard to tell, she had many masculine qualities, many, many, many.

5. Butterfly McQueen, that name right there is enough to make you cringe, the writers idea of a black slave, inbred, slightly retarded, loud and screechy. I am sure when I write this people will say,who Macy Gray? I understand it was the depression and people have to eat, but even Stallone and Marilyn Monroe were able to escape their porn pasts. This role was worse than Linda Lovelaces "Dog Lover". It would haunt her like the Mary Celeste haunts the high seas.

6.The film and book make no apologies for atrocities against humans, it rationalizes the need for slavery, it sounds like my friend who is my age and still gets high..."Nobody is going to tell me how to run my life!" Yeah, he is still at minimum wage and single, renting with roommates, no prospects on a girlfriend, and his mother writes him checks to bail his ass out on bills. Sounds like the state of Louisiana.

7. Atlanta burned to the ground by Sherman, and that was a bad thing?

8. The Northerners were evil, I will tell you what is evil, Dallas has a hockey team, so does Florida, and Carolina and Nashville, that's evil. Seriously, why does the south have Hockey? I mean come on, what the hell. There are many places left in the North for Hockey teams, and they would actually sell seat. Sorry about the Hockey rant I know it has nothing to do with this , it just drives me nuts that the southerners are equating hockey with pro wrestling.

9. The kid dies, one kid... come on they were Irish, there should have been 12 kids, losing one would have only meant a few of the others would have had to pick up extra chores. A frigid Irish woman is a myth, like Bigfoot and Chucacabra. It probably was that Ol' Rhett was a dandy, everyone knows that Vivien Leigh was a mentally ill raging nymphomaniac who died penniless in real life, that's Irish.

10. Finally.... Ashley as the chick magnet? Plus Belle gets no action? Come on, what kind of bullshit is this? The town whore can't find a man? I know that the south is glorified but a prostitute that spends all her time looking for love? . No I think that this is the worst movie ever because it glorifies the people who made their money off the blood of innocent humans whom these " heroes " crushed into submission and ruined, all for the throne of kings, Tara. If the writer had lived long enough I am sure she would have had written, Gone with the Ashes, the Auschwitz story about a brooding SS officer at the camp, and his loyal wife back home. With the lovley and spirited german nurse in the human vivisection room will do anything to win his love, meanwhile, Red, the Soviet war profiteer takes her away and through the burning and bombing of Berlin, assisted by the comic sidekick of a Jewish prisoner and the slightly retarded seamstress, who got that way from being struck on the head with a rifle butt from the concentration camp. At the end our nurse who performed experiments on jewish children at the camp has returned and we find her sitting among their ashes at Auschwitz, after the allies have come through. There with the sunset fadiing over the death camp she looks up at the sky screaming," As god is my witness, I will rebuld this place! Uh Oh, I think I have a Joe Esterhaus movie in the works.
