    If this was not called Rambo, Last Blood would be applauded for being the revisionist action masterpiece that it is. The movie does not glorify violence it shows violence for the brutality that it is pushing it to the levels of torture horror instead of the PG13 friendly CGI blood we see now that makes violence

    Seeing as Rambo 08 and some Whitepapers from Amnesty International where the only places talking about Myanmar the movie still did more than everyone else to bring attention to the atrocities that are still ongoing. 

    The Variety article says “Wu acknowledged that the legal issues in the case are close calls, and that his ruling will likely be appealed.” and even the AV article says “Judge George Wu sided with the estate, even as he noted that his decision had a decent chance of being appealed.”

    Why because you don’t like the ruling?

    It almost certainly didn’t happen but what is odd is in the last month or two I have actually came across 2 or 3 people claiming this in the wild. But, these stories are almost always the same soliders flying into an airport where they are spit on. Hmmm wonder where they got the airport idea.

    I know I am a month late to the party but thank you for being about the only voice of sanity. The amount of science denial in the comments is amazing from people that would normally make fun of global warming deniers and Anti Vaxers. That it is somehow controversial and edgy to be for self-improvement. 

    It was a stupid unsustainable idea that while in the short term was good it has caused real long term harm for me as a consumer. Moviepass business model could never be profitable or sustainable. Yet enough people used it that it has devalued non-AAA movies. If a movie does not require pre purchasing a ticket such as

    Exactly. This is about the US Attorney getting their name in the news. If these parents where poor or non-newsworthy there is no chance this case would have been approved as it is a waste of money and manpower.

    This is not Enron or the Mortgage crisis or the unorganized crime group that is Deutsche Bank. This is parents trying to get their kids into college. Everyone would do this if they had the means and opportunity to do so.

    If these parents where not famous and newsworthy they would never have been arrested in the first place as no one would approve the hundreds of thousand to investigate this. Hell, if she was not famous she would have been given jail time. But, sure keep pretending this is Enron level fraud.

    It is a victimless crime. 

    Exactly. The people here at Kinja don’t really give a shit about criminal justice reform they just want to use the power against people they dont like.

    No poor deserving soul was denied because of these parents. If and its a huge if someone got wait listed or rejected it was someone else you hate because they come from a rich family. Anyone that was borderline was borderline no matter what.

    Congrats.

    Bingo. Democratic leadership still lets DC pundits and service providers dictate their thinking and planning. They still act like there are swing voters and independent voters and that is who they need to reach. When 30 years of research shows that no there are less than 5 percent swing voters/last mintue deciders. Or

    The Kinja sites really need to put together a FAQ on who we are supposed to hate and why and what childrens movies we must love or are sexist or racist or something. I know Newsroom, Bill Simmons, Michael Moore and the new Joker movie are all on it but I forget so many others. I know I have to love the last Star Wars

    The Whitney Houston version is vastly overrated because it was during the first Gulf War so got a propaganda push.

    Thank you. In the hundreds of thousands if not millions of times it has been sung only once has it ever not sucked and that is with probably the greatest singer there is, Marvin Gaye. Everyone else makes it worse and am I pretty sure there is a good 4 or 5 attempts that started years ago that are still going on. No

    Don’t let facts get in the way of ammunition in this new culture war.

    Florida rail won on the ballot with over 60 percent of the vote. The reason Florida rail is not being built is Rick Scott killed it as part of his burn everything Obama does campaign.
