These guys just want to bring back the 70s _in general_ — stagflation, mass unemployment, racism, worthless wars and corduroy pants. Because what I absolutely want to do is trade in my 60 mpg hybrid for a Woodie.

It’s not Vineland because Pynchon but it has Pynchon flourishes and paranoia and general weirdness. Excellent movie… just jump scare.
