Seems the Chucky dolls were made in the good ole USA. Notice the lazy American computer operator that was sitting on his butt, reading a magazine and watching TV, till the dolls got backed up, then he had to fix the issue then got his eyes punched out. Today, no U.S. corporation would pay someone to sit and watch over an assembly line when they could outsource the job(s) to China or India.
shareNot sure what point you're driving at, but most stuff Made in 'Merica is crap regardless.
Anyone here mentions Hotel California dies before the first line clears his lips.
We don't have to make them. China pays people $0.10 an hour to give the Entire Globe toys they want. America pays $13.00 to a person putting my cheeseburger in a bag. They call it a career in 'Murica nowadays.
shareThe point he is driving at is that America hardly has any good jobs any more because they have all been outsourced to slave labor sweat shops in third world countries like China. And his supplementary point is that this film is very obsolete because it represents a large factory making products in America.
shareYeah, I get that. As does anyone who has been half awake the last two and a half decades. What I don't get is, what is the point in relation to this movie? It's about as prudent as pointing out archaic cellphones in older movies.

Actually, a lot of people still think America is great even though it hardly has any good jobs any more.
Examples: hillary clinton and its democrat ilk (granted, they probably do not truly think that America is still great, but they just pretend to think it in order to fool the public) and their supporters (most of whom make minimum wage and can barely afford to live, yet they still think America is great anyway just because hillary tells them it is, LOL!).
So you may be right that it is not prudent when talking to smart people with brains, but lots of people are not smart with brains, and for them, the points are very prudent indeed.
Define "Good" jobs. Good is technically subjective. I mean this is an easy job in the movie, but that does not denote "Good". Also, there are still plenty of "Good" jobs in America you just have to have a college degree for most of them now. Which is kind of silly when you think about it, but no one is discussing getting rid of that or the "Experience" requirement which is just the Human Resources department being lazy and not wanting to write a test to prove that the person can do the job. I mean factory work was clearly never going to be a "Permanent" job as Automation has made most manual Human factory work obsolete, and the Global Economy begins to expand and emerge. The better way would be to send those unemployed factory workers back to school to learn to do trades which can't be outsourced due to the high technical skill/cost of importation of the products.
Also, thinking a job in a movie is like a job in Real Life is well kinda silly. Not many jobs are depicted well in the films because people don't want to see boring things when they go see a film they want to see action and excitement which is what they paid to see.
Cheers.
