Reagan was a monster, I was younger during his administration but old enough to see the trauma it was causing. Mentally ill being turned out onto the streets, repeated illegal acts carried out at the international level the demonization and cruelty towards the LGBTQ+ community culminating in largely ignoring the…

I was there too, I watched him pretend AIDS wasn’t a thing, I watched the repeated trials for criminal acts under his administration. The man was a horrible president and an even worse human being.

First, I’m not a director. I wont pretend I could make this movie, I didn’t say the price was unreasonable, I said there’s more than four minutes of shooting going on. Regardless of how reasonable a cost they got. It doesn’t take $70 million and several weeks to shoot four minutes of footage.

If you’re using the salary…

If that’s the case, then there’s several weeks of reshoots at $70 million dollars for four minutes which is... an inefficient shooting schedule if I’ve ever seen one. I mean, I’ve been on a few shoots and we can shoot a lot more than four minutes in under several weeks.

Except that there’s reporting saying it’s several weeks and has a $70 million dollar budget.

Yeah but I’m not, several weeks of reshoots and $70 million budget for the reshoots. More money for the reshoots than most small budget films entire budget (they usually clock in around $50 million).

Yeah the thing about that is that isn’t exactly the case. Warner gave him the option to bow out gracefully.

Okay, so I’m primarily a console gamer but I grew up on PCs and have a decent PC rig I built 4 years ago and can still run games maxed out. There’s the fallacy around PC gaming that you have to constantly upgrade. It’s the same kind of fallacy that “console games suck” just in reverse.

That mom must really have been a 70s Peter Gabriel fan!

This also just reinforces, there wasn’t a Snydercut before. It wasn’t ready to go or it’d have been out the door. He’s had to do millions in new shoots. This just shows how little was usable in the can when he was fired.

The HBO execs who green lit this could only hope for that. It’s going to be so much worse.

Wow this is an insult to the memory of Leonard Cohen.

Garry was no Penny.

Thankyou re. Chappelle! If he had let it go and just let it roll it’d would have blown over. His continued dragging out and amplifying it (going back to it time and time again) shows how he struggles with not winning at everything. This weekend he had some jokes not land on SNL, he wasn’t booed they just didn’t get…

I spoke with some British friends about this, on the whole they do not. The problem is more an optics one as the press amplifies these voices. On the whole the British people are as in the US. 50% say that they unequivocally should be able to self identify versus 27% who say they should not (the remainder have no…

Heck, she even took a step to do better, by using her not insubstantial platform to point people to a charity making a difference. It’s a serious step. How much would it take for WB to say shave a portion off of the profits and funnel them to the charity?

I’ve never understood the grief people gave her, she’s consistently a terrific talent and seems to be a decent human. It feels like every once in a while there’s a mass Tall Poppy Syndrome incident where people fixate on one (usually nice) person and try and ruin them. It’s unfortunate that it’s usually women that are…

A lot of people in Hollywood should take note, that’s how you handle a mistake with class and elegance to not put yourself at the centre but lift up and help those you hurt.

Exactly, I mean hell, they used to be furniture made out of wood! A lot of people buy TVs and expect them to last a decade or more and if you’re far enough back and have a decent quality TV a 1080p TV is going to be fine for a lot of people. Just when giving feedback we need to speak to the audience that will use it…
