Chernobyl 2: Electric Boogaloo

Also I can see from the imdb that there are Woman Characters. Always nice to have a Female presence in his films to help ground all the Male characters, deliver exposition, etc.  

I love Aubrey Plaza but she’s probably doing the least on White Lotus. She’s good! I’d love to see some recognition for my personal MVP Meghann Fahy, who gets a vastly more interesting arc, or Sabrina Impacciatore for her delivery of Peppa Pig. 

Jabbing at a director on a pop culture website is weird hate? Maybe don’t take yourself so seriously...

Very Serious Filmmaking.

Looks like Nolan’s comfortably reached the self-parody stage of his career. 

Fair enough! Your Hammer mileage will vary. I quite like him in Call Me By Your Name, and think he’s fun in (aforementioned brick) Man From Uncle, in addition to the other titles you mentioned. My Worthington mileage ... I mean, he moves and speaks. Is he CGI? Jury’s out.

I dunno, I’d argue Armie Hammer was good, and in good movies. Was Sam Worthington, like, good in something?

To be fair, I don’t understand them either. Like, it’s a token ... on a blockchain ... monkey ... artwork ... ponzi-scheme? Wait, maybe I do understand it.

Recency bias, but I did enjoy the hell out of Tanya’s boat sequence in White Lotus. 

Aww, c’mon! That was such a nice gesture in a really difficult time. As a poor person, seeing all those celebrities sing really inspired me to continue living my bleak, mansion-less existence.

I dunno if he’s good at it, but he’s certainly effective at fathering children.

I’m fully baffled by the “he got away with it” thinking. Wouldn’t anyone piece together the crime scene like “gee, it looks like she fired her way out of this room containing a bag with rope and duct tape (how fishy!), then somehow wound up in the water...” Even if it wasn’t immediately obvious what had transpired the

It’s got the snout of a Honda E. Love it.

But something like that might have infringed on Escape sales, a vehicle that just got its own major redesign.

Right! You think they’d take one look at the boat-y crime scene and go ok, this is deeply f*cked, a super-rich heiress shot the place up, we should probably look into where her fortune is going. That’s my preferred ending, anyway. 

What a f’kin bummer. Such a stacked, great cast! Hope they can find another partner.

“Come on, Tanya! You got this!”

Loved it. The loss of Tanya stings, but she’s going out on a high. Trotting her out for season three would’ve been diminishing returns (or maybe not, who knows). Gunning down a boatful of villainous geyyys is the spiritual sequel to The Last of Sheila I didn’t know I needed. Still on cloud nine.

I mean, yes? You’ve just described how making a film works.
