All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

It's kinda crazy that this was directed by Raoul Walsh, a director I associate with gritty crime flicks and Westerns. It'd be like finding out Walter Hill directed a Cecil B. Demile style costume drama.

An acidic, dexterously directed flick that paints the most unflattering portrait of organized crime--not to mention democracy--imaginable. In contrast w/, say, GOODFELLAS, there's little pleasure in the lives of ELECTION's gangsters. Instead, their world is driven by a consuming fear or humiliation.

There's a bit in THIEF OF BAGHDAD where Fairbanks fights a dragon and then jumps for joy when he kills it and my brain automatically played the FINAL FANTASY victory theme.

I think about this a lot, I feel like it’s deeply related to generative AI
Some things in life are supposed to be a little bit hard! Some things should require effort! Human beings should routinely hear “no” and “not yet” and “you can’t do that” and “that is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard”

I think part of What's Going On with billionaires is that the daily friction of interacting with normal people is part of what anchors people to the real world, and once you have enough money to buy your way out of the friction you can knock down a load-bearing column propping up your sanity.

I’m not gonna be one of those too cool for school guys who acts like he’s outgrown Tarantino, because he’s made movies that are still some of my favorites of all time, but is he really the person to be talking about how a movie would be great but for one really bad actor

...the audience is now, in fact, applauding. A lot.
...okay Tubi's version is using music that was clearly recorded live at a screen because you can occasionally hear people milling around and even cough during breaks in the music.

Also find it funny how much shit was stirred up over how the Israeli superhero was going to be in ot and then they turned her into "Oops, we killed off Black Widow, get her Dollar Store Knock Off."
The worst part of Captain America Brave New World is that it posits two different good ideas for a movie (Captain America vs. Snake-Themed Mercenaries/Captain America vs. Our Asshole President) but then it does neither of them

Seeing an Enquirer headline saying Biden’s FBI spied on Charlie Kirk, and to be honest, I hope that’s true. He was a dangerous fascist inciting people to violence. It would be nice if the FBI did their actual stated job for once.

Trying to think of a movie with more hapless villains than COMMANDO. it’s like Arnie’s version of THE LADYKILLERS.
There are some really great one-liners in 80s action movies, but it's a rare case where we get a set-up, a callback, a payoff, AND a coda.
