it is not the first time I have been racist in the name of my own mistake and sadly probably not the last
I've seen these save for the Potter and Fassbinder ones and lemme tell you, they are great picks. Night of the Hunter blew me away when I first saw it a couple of years ago. Probably the best movie directed by a guy who only directed one movie.

The economics of "Footlight Parade" don't make the even the slightest bit of sense. Talkies have killed Broadway musicals, but somehow James Cagney's business partners are making a killing on "prologues", live-action musical comedies performed before the movie. And there are somehow economies of scale on these things! Everyone in the 1930s was a goddamn moron is the main thing I'm getting from this film.

Also none of these people can dance. Just garbage dancing.

These songs loving suck too

OK, the synchronized swimming number is pretty impressive

I can agree with Night of the Hunter being a great movie, but Bringing Up Baby was torture. I think Will has generally pretty bad taste in movies

In a similar vein, it was a little disappointing to read Matt's glowing review of The Avengers on Letterboxd, a social media site for film reviews and discussion:

Felix not mentioning he was on one of those 12 people streams and Destiny embarrassed himself trying to claim Virgil's Mayor Pete Salo tweet was homophobic (because he didn't know what Salo is). I actually forgot Destiny was almost my age and older than Felix because the way he acted I figured he was early 20s. Same with the clips with Norm he acts like a child in every one.

Most insane bit was when he said Finkelstein lied about the IDF killing of four children on a beach and said the reality was they'd just exited a known "Hamas compound" which they "operated out of". They were playing hide and seek in an old fisherman's shack which was witnessed by a bunch of journalists.

Destiny and his following seem to genuinely believe that the winner of any argument is the person who says the most words. I'm not going to pretend it doesn't enrage me. He's a thoroughly rotten human being with nothing to offer the world and an example of the fame and wealth you can achieve in AmeriKKKa by being a thoroughly rotten human being with nothing to offer the world.
