War of the Worlds: Spielberg vs. Bush

"Maybe I shouldn't get into this. I just feel that filmmakers are much more proactive since the second Bush administration. I think that everybody is trying to declare their independence and state their case for the things that we believe in. No one is really representing us, so we're now representing our own feelings, and we're trying to strike back."

I've always felt that art was better during rougher times. Remember 1990-1991 (Nirvana, NIN, Pearl Jam, Achtung Baby, Seattle, etc.)? It all happened under Bush I's watch. And then the mid to late 1990's saw crap like BSB and Britney, all during the prosperous Clinton years.
