Well, I don’t watch them. Presumably they are cheap to produce. Like all the bullshit you get at the bottom of the action movie queue.

Once upon a time Newsweek was owned by the Washington Post, and was Time Magazine’s chief competitor in weekly news rags. Then the internet happened, and now it is a fading brand with no product or service to brand.

My favorite version of Moon River is Jerry Butler’s. Other than that, the movie is not redeemable.

I assumed it was just some breezy garbage, but it brilliantly captures the seedy zeitgeist of the characters, their time, and place.

Move the entire ensemble to California. Bring in Martin Mull and Michael McKean as the wacky gay neighbors.

GOP midterm polls in the rust belt must be abysmal.

The implicit assumptions here are the party has an endless supply of cash to fund quixotic campaigns, and some giant pool of untapped leftist voters.

The US already has a party that represents the interests of white males. Why do they need another one, I mean other than to disenfranchise women, minorities, gays, etc...

Populism is always about the dominant, in-group power system taking what they want from the weak and calling it equity.

She’s had a lot of work at a young age.

So just like her run for NY Governor?

If there is a cameo role for Dwight Yoakam as a corporate heavy, I’m in!

Where the party “needs to go” is an irrelevant metric. Clinton cleaned Sanders clock 58/42 in the NY primary. Nixon will likely under-perform that benchmark.

Don’t order the milk.

That’s the Chili’s/Friday’s/Olive Garden market niche. Parents with young kids and alcoholics that make the same messes as a three year old.

The Schrader Hawke film looks like a parody of a Schrader Hawke film.

DoJ and the courts haven’t considered it a significant issue since the Reagan era, and Netflix wouldn’t be constrained by any consent decrees issued sixty years before it incorporated. Between corporate churn and court decisions, I’m not sure any studio or exhibitor would be today. 

The animated Fleischer Superman shorts are worth a watch (and important works in the history of Superman, super-hero films and action animation).

SPOILER:

The man exudes useless drunk. Not sure what the toffs saw in him or his show.
