Yeah, even this review retains a consistent through-line of the reviews I’ve read thus far. Looks great, top notch performances, immaculate mood/tone, but underwhelming story.

Aussi, NZ, same thing.

Right! They changed the rules and he DIDN’T go to jail. You are so full of shit, you have NO FUCKING IDEA if the “rules would be changed a lot more.” That’s certainly a POSSIBILITY but you keep saying shit with the kind of certainty that would put Nostradamus to shame. Knock it off.

You aussies really know how to party.

“this century”

FWIW, the civil suit was already settled. There’s a wrinkle in that because apparently the Rust producers named (including Baldwin) haven’t made the payment they were supposed to make per the settlement so it’s possible the suit will move forward again.

“But he wanted to use a real operating firearm”

He didn’t load the gun.

So is there a chance that this *might* mean that *maybe* some of the trades and TV social media sphere will pull their tongues out of The Bear’s asshole long enough to mention how superior FX on Hulu series Reservation Dogs was and give it the accolades they’ve been giving The Bear? It’s crazy to me that Rez Dogs has…

Explain to us how Alec Baldwin going to jail for a year and a half would lead to meaningful changes in production rules concerning firearms.

“If he wants to pretend use a pretend gun.”

It’s a good thing to have the actors check the firearms they’re using, provided they’ve had the training.

There’s more conjecture in this post than in the company name of Pete White and Billy Quizboy’s tech company.

I say this with the caveats that younger generations are better about this (but still not great) and that I’m absolutely guilty of it myself: He’s a dude and we don’t seek help for MOST shit, let alone disturbing shit. “I self-sabotage any time I’m given an opportunity for success because I don’t think I deserve it…

Now I *kinda* want to hear that set...

He was a headliner making decisions on who would open or middle for him. He had a well-known, well-connected agent. That’s influential, especially in the world of women he pulled that shit on.

I think there’s also a complicated blowback of disappointment going on that certainly I experienced and probably other like-minded fans experienced. I’ve been around these sites for a while. When Gawker first put up an article featuring a third-hand account of a Louis accusation I was pretty adamant in the comments…

Yeah, I definitely think that was a big part of it. I know from my own personal experience how frustrating it can be when you’re trying to own your shit in conversation with someone who doesn’t owe you that and makes sure you know it. I’m a middle-aged white cishet progressive dude. I’ve had my share of conversations…

That last paragraph is a needlessly hyperbolic bit of bullshit.

Hrm. Might be a little of column A and B here. Cuz like I said, this review is pretty consistent with others I’ve read. Like how much can you inform the reader about a doc whose core weakness is that it doesn’t give anyone new information? I’ve read a few of those Cannes reviews and yeah, that approach does seem…
