I assume DeSade won't make an appearance at all.

How is workin' for the man every night and day a good job, John?

You maybe meant to say it was a vicious circle, but the way you described it is one coming before the other.

Syncopy is a British company. The Bond films have American distributors, who I imagine don't get those rights for nothing.

Better is not the same as good. And talking about moral frameworks misses the point - I'm talking, as I clearly mentioned, about how the war is "popularly remembered." The popular memory does not include any justifications for bombing civilians - it doesn't include the bombing of civilians to begin with.

Can you give me any sources for where the money came from for Dunkirk and the latest Bond films so we can resolve this like the math issue it ultimately is?

Gee, let me consider this for the very first time in the intellectually sheltered life that you somehow guessed I must lead… Nah, it's the policies.

Yeah, and maybe the alt-right sociopaths are the result of the pettiness and narcissism of the "lefties." See, you can cast any motherfucker in a positive light by depicting their motherfuckery as a response to an affront.

And my point is that such a "technicality" is not a reliable hook on which to hang any points you wish to make about Hollywood in general. I've also got some bad news for you regarding the Bond films…

Warner Bros. didn't pay for a World War II film, they paid for a Christopher Nolan film; it was Nolan who wrote a WWII film. He's a big name director with a good track record who's worked with them in the past and could sell them on quite a lot of ideas. It's not like Warner or some collective Hollywood subconscious…

Change the nationalities. If you had a film produced by, directed by and cast with Americans but an Indian company "financed it," would you call it a Bollywood film?

The only appropriation taking place here is the assumption that any English-language film is "Hollywood," as if the Americans have ownership of the language.

Are we sure that's not Jason Jones?

Operation Mincemeat

You mean the film made by Brits, starring Brits (and a few Irishmen), about an episode that occurred before the US entry into the war?

Then again, it's not like the Germans invaded Belgium to free the Congo.

World War II as popularly remembered was a war with actual good guys and bad guys. The massive civilian death toll in Axis countries, for one, is either forgotten or reduced to the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which are almost a separate topic from the rest of the war. (Or, if it's German civilians,…

Does Dunkirk even count as a Hollywood film? It has a British director, British producers, a British production company, an American distributor, a British and Irish cast, and filming locations in France, Britain, the Netherlands, and the United States. I'd call that either a British or an international product,…

Louis C.K. said he'd just rape Hitler and that would be enough.

I regard this as riskier than option #1. Carvell's clearly more dangerous than Lenny and, since he intends to stab them in the back, might be on the lookout for signs that his partners intend to do the same. Furthermore, that's graduating from drug trafficking and assault to murder. They might not have it in them, and…
