In any event, this seems like a non-issue, unless you and others are suggesting that LBJ is a figure particularly revered in Hollywood

Citing RT scores is a lameballs way of making an argument that a movie is a good movie. Argue for the movie on its merits, rather than appeal to authority. Consensuses are regularly wrong (cf., The artist)

I thought it was weird how at the end of Selma, Oprah's character gave everyone a new car.

this is a really good comment

As a person of color, I detect/suspect/take on faith that there are racist obstacles in the industry….. but I'm also wary of putting the blinders/rose-tinted glasses when it comes to movies/media made by minorities, and calling them great and all that as a matter of course.

you and I both got beaten up as 10-year-olds

I loved the little-known Mongolian remake, The yurt locker

White people may actually be more upset about it, fond as they are of taking offense on behalf of other races

more like shite-geist

Kim Dotcom might be pretty hard to control, owing to his girth

shake shack, bitch

I think you're talking about tone issues, which I sort of agree with. Some ep of Girls are super-serious, then it reverts back to the crazy millennial comedy

It's funny to entitled white millennials who'd never dream of working there

A labored joke, but effective

I'll admit to not having seen much Altman beyond his greatest hits, but take Nashville—yes, there's an interconnected quality to the storylines, but you can't really argue there's some grand didactic message, some thesis, being advanced. it's just a lot of people living out their lives in a place and time, which is…

I'm not sure, but I think Girls' writers would argue it's not a problem but a creative decision. They simply don't want to focus on hard, gritty stories, much like a comedy film keeps its tone from getting to harsh and 'real.' That, of course, may not work for some viewers looking for more realism.

you guessed it, Frank Stallone

It's by definition impossible to 'remake' Godard, since his working method was so…erm.. suigeneris. However it may be possible to 're-do' a similar concept, but who has the chops AND the filmmaking vision to pull that off?
