This comprehensive book delves into the profound impact of key components of Ronald Reagans ideology on selected Hollywood blockbuster movies. Through meticulous analysis, the aim is to shed light on the intricate relationship between cinematic spectacles and neoliberalism and neoconservatism. The study encompasses a detailed examination of Reagans presidential rhetoric and a comprehensive analysis of four seminal Hollywood blockbuster movies. Spanning from the 1980s to the 2010s, this comprehensive time range allows for a thorough exploration of the evolving dynamics between politics and cinema. The analysis takes into account not only the filmic content but also the production and distribution contexts, providing a holistic understanding of the interplay between politics and the entertainment industry.

Concluding the study, it becomes evident that Reagans political metaphors and the corporatization of film studios in the 1970s and 1980s continue to exert a significant influence on the making of Hollywood blockbuster films. This book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and enthusiasts alike, offering a deeper understanding of the complex interplay between politics, cinema, and popular culture.
