Aside from that description not matching quite a bit of his filmography, few filmmakers, or even just people on earth, have done more to elevate world cinema, films by women and people of color, etc, than Scorsese has. A shit ton of movies would just be out of circulation if not for Scorsese himself being involved in…

Jesse Hassenger you’ve killed it in this comment section.
Oh, yeah, my point is not that Soul isn’t good, so much as the whole idea of these 20 movies from one studio, by virtue of their extreme technical skill and the time and money it takes to make them, being preferable to a passel of hundreds of movies (some very poor!) which includes some really terrific, seminal movies…
What are the richly rewarding superhero movies that Scorsese has ignored by only watching a few Marvel movies, though? Honestly, I think the whole idea of “superhero movie” as genre has gotten pretty misleading. It’s more like a subgenre. Or, more accurately, a formula.
Like, “horror” is a genre. “Romantic comedy” is…
I love Pixar, but that you’d take 20 movies (most of which are good, some of which are great) “in a walk” over Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Dick Tracy, The Color of Money, Con Air, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Ed Wood, He Got Game, Rushmore, High Fidelity, O Brother Where Art Thou, 25th Hour, Unbreakable, The Royal…
I don’t think Scorsese is remotely saying that methods of distributing movies shouldn’t exist. He has set up movies at Netflix, and then Apple, because those are companies that were willing to give him money to make his movie. And rather than seeing this as hypocritical, I just think he’s pretty aware of how you need…
Well at least alleged rapist Trump isn’t and never was celebrated in Europe. And they have no rapists at their Supreme Courts nor a case like Epsteins. Save Europe for the Magas - they don’t know anything.
Ok. Overdue, but I’m done. For those who haven’t gotten there already, it’s time to move past the comfort of ambiguity and on to processing (or not processing) Allen’s films as the work of a depraved individual whose sicknesses and entitlement was supported by money, power, and the perpetuation of a personal myth. The…
I think it says something when even right wing pundits are like “He’s basically useless, so it was probably for the better that he left the country during this crisis.”
“Thank God we don’t live in an oppressive regime where you can’t post comments on the internet dismissing government corruption and excusing malfeasance purely out of single-minded party loyalty. Perish the thought.”
What I’ve learned from House Hunters and from visiting my in-laws during their brief time living in Florida is that EVERY nice house in South Florida looks the same. They all have Spanish tile roofs and huge entry ways and that cold tile floor everywhere and a screened in lanai/Florida room of some size, are almost…
Exactly. If it’s a GOP opponent, he’ll win just because people are going to go with what they know. If it’s a Dem, he’ll just scream “SOCIALISM” at them and voters in Texas will, by and large, keep voting Ted in because he’ll protect them from the evil Socialists who want to push LGBTQ+/BLM/abortions/feminism on them.
He's going to run for President in 2024. First debate question: "Senator Cruz, when the first national crisis occurs, which tropical paradise will you run away too so you can avoid it?"
Yeah, hypocrisy is the Right wingers’ native language. These are the same folks who SCREAMED every time Obama left the White House to play golf. Didn’t matter that it was Saturday or a holiday. Didn’t matter that there were no particular crisis to deal with. How dare he travel 30 minutes from the White House to…
“socialism country” why are all right-wingers borderline illiterate?
r/Texas is full of these pos.
Well now I want a House Hunters International marathon with Roxane Gay (the clearly superior variant which went unmentioned). It’s the best of both worlds: actually-sometimes cool houses in desirable cities, and the most infuriating people you’ve ever seen on television. It’s almost worth hearing the most basic woman…
Knock on wood or something when you the invoke the devil. Because if Satan exists and reeeeeaaally wanted to fuck with us, he’d send Rush back.
