Nah, I like movies. I dislike movies that try to be up their own rear end, which many of the big name dudes tend to make.

E- I'd rather watch a terrible movie that is openly terrible than watch a movie that tries to be something it's not.

Game Night, which I expected to be a funny popcorn flick, was in fact absolutely hilarious and maybe the best comedy since Tropic Thunder. So I'll put it forward as a perfect movie.

People mentioned it already, but Fury Road is perfect in every way.

I feel that. I can like some of his work (old Dune) but a lot of it just bounces off. It's evident that there's skill and effort there, and I see why people get it, but its just not very entertaining to me at all.

It may not even be that. It's that X is "his idea" and he's going to prove everyone wrong because it's a "good idea" and gently caress you if you think otherwise.

No appeal. I think the Director is overrated with a long track record of lovely movies. It's about throughly heinous people who should be impaled of barbed rebar spikes, and has nothing in it that draws me in. The fact that the people involved are still proud of what they did, and it gives those pieces of human garbage more fame and money. DiCaprio appeared less than 1 dimensional in every scene I've caught, and I don't find Margot Robie attractive. The only thing that might have held appeal was Jonah Hill, and he doesn't carry enough cachet for me to waste 2 hours of my life.
If I want to watch vaguely amusing lovely movies filled with rancid assholes, there is always Tarantino.

How attractive do you find the other actors in that movie and how does that affect your opinion of them?

another game at nationwide arena. everybody keeps asking me if they can fuck the cannon. buddy, they don't even let me fuck it

quote:

In 2018, Musk and Canadian musician Grimes revealed that they were dating. Grimes gave birth to their son in May 2020. According to Musk and Grimes, his name was "X Æ A-12" (/ɛks æʃ eɪ ˈtwɛlv/); however, the name would have violated California regulations as it contained characters that are not in the modern English alphabet, and was then changed to "X Æ A-Xii". This drew more confusion, as Æ is not a letter in the modern English alphabet. The child was eventually named X AE A-XII Musk, with "X" as a first name, "AE A-XII" as a middle name, and "Musk" as surname

What a goddamn loving loser.

It's the truth, that's basically where he pulled his staffers from. His campaign staff and campaign strategy is "donnie didn't go far enough and is a cuck" because Donnie's campaign or the establishment basically wrapped up everyone else. The DeSantis memerators are the ones that were too far-right for even donnie's standards, or nihilists that just do it for the money. Edit: moreso than current donnie staffers of course
