Meh. Depp’s Jack Sparrow is never going to be as good as he was in the first Pirates movie, because that was the only Pirates movie that wasn’t written with his goofy Jack Sparrow affect in mind.

Would it matter? Doesn’t he still own the fucking thing? I feel like Elon Musk starts hyperventilating if he doesn’t see himself in any given news cycle and this is just one way of scoring his media fentanyl.
Yeah, he needs a bit of Vince Guaraldi on the old soundtrack.
I wish Nolan would experiment with more interesting musical scores. They’re all becoming so loud, exaggerated and overpowering. Life isn’t always that urgent all of the time.
“Titanic Turned My Son Gay” is definitely the type of headline I expect to see from certain media channels.
I think that the genius of Titanic gets overlooked: It’s really 2 different movies in one. It starts with a basic star-crossed lovers story, and about 2/3's of the way through that film it becomes a mostly self-contained action film.

I’m eagerly awaiting the futuristic installment of the Yellowstone franchise, 2367. Everyone will get along and there’s no money.

My dad recently put two and two together after seeing a tonne of Avatar 2 commercials that this was a film by the James Cameron. My Dad was like “....wont this be embarrassing for him?”.
This good review doesn’t have my convinced with the recent best picture and best director nods from the Golden Globes I have to…
If this is your bag then by all means enjoy yourself. I personally have no interest in seeing a piece of especially dumb seventies van art turned into a 2 1/2 movie
Underling: “Wow the White Lotus numbers are great! We’re gonna make a lot of money on this one. Season 3 is going to rake in even more”
Is this a case of “saving the company” or more of a “cut ALL the expenses so I can claim to have increased profits for a massive bonus before I jump ship on the drained husk of the once thriving company” situation?
“Come on, Tanya! You got this!”
Loved it. The loss of Tanya stings, but she’s going out on a high. Trotting her out for season three would’ve been diminishing returns (or maybe not, who knows). Gunning down a boatful of villainous geyyys is the spiritual sequel to The Last of Sheila I didn’t know I needed. Still on cloud nine.
Exactly. He workshopped it, for, like 40 years. He’s method.
