The only way I can see it working at all is if the twist is that he’s faking it (and wasn’t this the twist in an Edward Norton movie from about 20 years ago?) otherwise hard pass.

Having watched the whole series (it aired in the UK last year) it is good IMO, but it’s also weird in a way that makes it super hard to market or even really explain.

Any (R)’s yet?

I’m going to go ahead and assume Joseph Fiennes just picks out scripts from his brother’s rejects pile.

I completely believe this.

This looks a fuck of a lot like a pile of completely blank stationary...

I’d imagine it’d probably be used for dissection, with some parts preserved and the rest incinerated afterwards.

I’m British and literally the only part of that headline I understand is “Burnley striker”.

Not just your gut, a close friend of mine knows a lot of people who work in broadcast news and they’re all on high alert over this right now (being asked to prep for overtime etc.) “heavy cold” is a pretty well worn code for “serious in a way we’re not comfortable being specific about”.

I had wondered if that was the case, since I actually think it’s a brilliant plot point for a movie with a different tone that actually acknowledges how messed up it is. One of the reviews mentions how it treats the eventual part where Lawrence’s character finds out like the “I own the book store that is putting you…

Roosh V, a “neomasculine” man with a poor imitation of a Duck Dynasty beard...

Since he basically want to be king* he’s definitely thinking way more.

I think this is the one I’m misremembering as carbon monoxide, it was one of the methods looked at by a doc on executions I watched. The people they had looking at the different methods (a mix of officers, judges, etc) completely dismissed it because of the euphoria, part of the reason being that any family members of…

Using Heroin (medical grade) is a supply issue, few drug companies are ok with the idea of their product being used to kill in this way. IIRC the issue with carbon monoxide is that it can have a briefly euphoric effect, and apparently it’s not ok to execute someone if they’re going to like part of it (this may be part…

It’s ok, someone made a version that fixed it...

Ergh, that sounds worryingly reminiscent of a similar bit of junk science used at the hight of the Satanic Panic. In that case (IIRC) it was a muscular reflex an expert claimed was unique to children who had been anally raped (turned out it’s a normal reflex, it’s just that not everyone has it).

Argyle sweater kid knows what’s up.

Most parents manage to see their adult children regularly enough without directly employing them Donald.

If it was really actually truely really real you’d probably stuggle to find venues to perform it in, never mind enough venues to tour the act.
