I was hoping someone would respond with an image from that film.

You beat me to it. The second repeats so many beats from the original, and makes no sense since the first one set up that it was the last-ditch attempt of the Cold War spawned Skynet. Plus using the same Arnie model that shot up LA years ago is just asking for police intervention! Sarah Conner had an arc in the first…

I did not know he was a standup or that the film was based on one of his machines.

While a lot of the movies DeNiro is derided for making now are comedies, he actually started out in comedy before he shifted to drama with Mean Streets. DePalma’s early movies like Greetings & Hi Mom! were edgy comedies, The Gang That Couldn’t Shoot Straight was a very broad mob comedy, and even Born to Win is a…

May & Taylor may be getting long in tooth, but I doubt their perception now is that “Another One Bites the Dust” and “We Will Rock You” were from the same session/album.

Roger’s political beliefs are also so old it makes no sense as an explanation for why he would be investigated now. It’s as if the generations aware of the context of The Wall have died off and been replaced by people who can’t distinguish the crossed hammers from any other insignia.

The police in Berlin are at least 12 years late:

What’s the other one?

I just know him from the first season of American Vandal.

Apparently directed by Bo Welch, who is not a Latina. He is, however, married to Catherine O’Hara, so that’s interesting.

Per this review, most of the sprawling cast has little to do:

What’s the movie from 20 years ago she’s referring to?

Is there any question Biberman was? His opposition to Lend-Lease made the FBI suspect he was a Nazi... prior to Barbarosa. Flip-flopping afterward was a telling sign of someone’s politics.

Nice improvisation, then.

Tate Taylor adapted it into a screenplay. Stockett didn’t write either the book (by David Grann) or screenplay for Killers of the Flower Moon. Unfortunately, Eric Roth wrote the latter, having previously turned cynical source material into schmaltz in Forrest Gump & Benjamin Button. And also some better films, but…

Scorsese is not Tate Taylor.

I’m going to guess the unifying feature of these is that not many people watched them.

Most common in the upper-midwest, but he’s famously a New Yorker.

Yeah, it also struck me as inferior. I hated the screenwriter fiance talking about how her character is internally conflicted too. I just didn’t buy it for the actual character. I also prefer the surprise of who is a mole later in the film, whereas Infernal Affairs begins by showing a group of them like a graduating…

The big AIs now all go through human-directed reinforcement learning which has been described as reflecting the sensibilities of an affluent Bay Area progressive*. 1950s content wouldn’t even be as available online as post-internet writing.
