Probably not, most lawyers can’t do contracts for shit and just use ancient templates.

What was the first beloved movie about movies/Hollywood? There must be an example before Sunset Boulevard, though I think that would be the codifier.

99% of the time, they aren’t doing that from lack of planning. They’re doing it to jump the line.

But Palpatine Fucks explains why Rey is skilled in the force without training! You nerds just can’t be happy!

Rogue One was fine, even if the story wasn’t very coherent. But the immediate fan reaction of “this is the best Star Wars movie ever” seemed to arrive simply because it had a dark ending and dudes got to watch Darth Vader wreck house. It’s like a mirror-verse Attack of the Clones.

The Star Wars movies have never been known for the acting (which was hampered by writing and direction), but Adam Driver does circles around everyone else in the sequels.

The Martian is the most re-watchable movie of this century. Stand-alone, not overlong, stacked cast, structured as a series of problems so it can be picked up at any point, big emotional beats but obviously ending in success.

Barsanti? Doubtful.

Too bad for you.

Because he’s a washed up mess and the little girl saying “that’s the best acting I’ve ever seen!” was ridiculous, just the sort of story someone like that tells themself.

Tenet: the worst sound balance in any movie ever.

Yeah, how is it that the Titans and other powerful beings are so easily handled (as said outright) by a bunch of mind-wiped humans with zap-clubs?

Point me to said debunking, please?

Oh yeah? At what point does Tarantino say that the events portrayed are really exactly what happened, the way Scorsese did for Taxi Driver?

I still don’t understand why people can’t see that the Lee fight flashback is obviously from an unreliable narrator. Same as DiCaprio’s character nailing the scene with the little girl.

In that sense, he didn't *have* to portray the Manson family or carefully recreate 60s Hollywood. But that's the whole point of the movie.

In 2020 we had mask power and distancing power. In 2021 we need vaccine power.

I tell you what, the Smokey and the Bandit fandom didn’t make me sick of it all and produced fewer bad franchise entries..

I said, Shrink... I want to kill. I mean, kill. I want blood, gore, and guts, and veins in muh teeth. I mean Kill. KILL!
