I saw a bit of dumb money which is about the GME stock pump and dump and the plot seems to be the people vs wall street

-_-
i didnt watch the movie but it was actually really kind of depressing to be there in real-time on wsb and stuff when GME was going down. like a huge amount of people, self-aware that they're just gambling but also wanting to stick it to da man, all sort of collectively buying into this faint idea of a 'movement against big capital'. whose only result was worse than the grand finale of CHAZ: just giving rich people even more money

but it was a big energy of everyone buying into the idea and thinking it was actual marxist praxis or whatever, which was sad. if energy could have been channeled to literally anything else, maybe firebombing goldman sachs, that would have accomplished so much more than just gambling2praxis

It's been awhile but iirc it has the tone and characterization of a Jurassic World or MCU. Just really awful stuff, especially compared to how solid Zilla '14 and Kong: Skull island were. I haven't even bothered with Godzilla vs Kong because it was so bad!

i didnt' see 2019 but GvK was dumb fun but definitely a pretty mediocre movie if you don't like mid dumb fun

i didn't really expect much from the premise anyways though. i think i watched it on like a 10 hr flight to London so its not like i had anything better to do and did the job of "mildly entertained crammed in a flying hot dog tube" for a couple of hours well enough. couldn't really ask for more from it

I guarantee that director got bullied by execs during shooting, it's a very delicate concept to translate and unless the director has the power of a Cameron or Spielberg to tell the producers to gently caress off even a good script will get noted to mediocrity

Confusingly, Bottoms is a film about being gay. But it's about the lady gays.

pardon my take is making fun of those guys, it's PFTCommenter's parody; however, barstool as a label is full of actual dipshits who'd say those things in earnest, so I can understand why the swifties would be mad
