The Critical Drinker is critical of the replacements of the male action stars we all have known since the 80’s, however he doesn’t look back and highlight the flaws in those characters e.g. “The Message” of Sean Connery and Roger Moore’s bond was from the swingin 60s with Hugh Hefner being one of the prophets. I haven’t watched all his videos so could be wrong.

Circling back to Pagan thought from the old days. The Apostle Paul tells us the story of Christ is lunacy to the powers that be. His point is simply that somebody dying on a cross could not possibly seem like victory to anybody in the physical world. We see the same thing now in our movies and it has seeped into feminism as well. Only the strong and powerful and violent are to be worshiped. This has zero difference with Pagan worship of the powerful gods of old. Just more irony to pile on to the heads of modern materialists.
