Are you just talking about physicalities? Because I thought Simon Russell Beale was excellent as Beria, suitably slimy but clearly very clever and calculating.

Oh for sure it’s a shocking execution, but then there are stark moments of reality throughout the film that are wonderfully jarring.

then why not just film it in Russian or whatever?

I take her point. I have deliberately avoided learning about the Kardashians—on the other hand, the information is out there, and I inadvertently know more than I care to.

“He has also said that he deliberately avoided learning details about the sequels... (On the other hand, the information was out there)“

That’s a really nonsensical editorialization. Like imagine if someone said, “I drove cross-country because I enjoy road trips.” How insufferable do you have to be if you just HAVE…

Absolutely, and don’t let that fancy British comedy stuff go over your head.

How do you write three paragraphs about Rowan Atkinson and fail to mention Black Adder?

I see what they’re doing here by casting more British actors. YOU WILL NEVER BE PADDINGTON, YOU FUCKING LIGHTNING RAT!

“What if there isn’t a winner?”

This is what happens when an old person hears about the success of twitch streamers

• A judge walks out of his chambers laughing his head off. A colleague approaches him and asks why he is laughing. “I just heard the funniest joke in the world!” “Well, go ahead, tell me!” says the other judge. “I can’t – I just gave someone ten years for it!”

The books are an allegory for racism. The whole reason Voldemort and the Death Eaters started a war was because they wanted racial purity in the wizarding world, i.e. no muggles marrying wizards, no “mudbloods”, and so on. Harry and his crew weren’t having it, ergo Voldy got avada kedavra’d.

I like muggle because it sounds vaguely racist (which is fine in context because it is often used in a derogatory way).  No-maj doesn’t sound racist, and therefore doesn’t sound like something an American would say.

Le magique?! What the hell is that?!

Gotta love when clueless CEOs with no media training go and spout the worst shit possible that came first on their minds to try to deflect accusations....

“David Cage was described by some employees in the reports as not being very subtle.”

“You want to call me sexist? I know the name of a woman! You want to call me racist? I know the name of a Black guy!” *sigh*

Re: “A Clockwork Orange”

Definitely Life of Brian. You know the scene. You know the one.

I bet teenagers think this guy is hilarious.
Teenagers are idiots.
