i saw the movie and it made me become liberal from its powerful and well crafted message. A job well done by these liberal filmmakers. And im glad to now be a part of the liberal team

i'll watch it a few years from now, when i'm drunk and it comes on FXX or whatever, stretching it into a 4 hour event w/commercials. i'll drift in an out of consciousness, but tell people I've seen it. Then they'll mention a scene and I'll just be like "yeah, that was wild"

reality did play out the exact same way, except it was over like sixty years and we're all currently waiting for the president and Bilelon Zuckerbezos to come back from the restroom.

Watching the new matrix and they also included a Zuckerberg reference. Not awful but wondering if anything was pitched for this script and got vetoed.

I liked the part near the beginning when they went to the white house... while waiting to see the president a general gets them snacks and waters and tells them it'll be ten dollars each.

After getting paid he leaves and is never heard from again.

Later is is discovered that this is a grift and the snacks are free.

That general is named "General Themes".

That one made me chuckle.

Not exactly subtle that film, I raised my first eyebrow when the wife kicked the husband out of the house he inherited and completely gave up once she bombed that hospital.

It's great! It starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, an aeroplane
and Lenny Bruce is not afraid

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no strength
The ladder starts to clatter with fear of height, down height
Wire in a fire, representing seven games
In a government for hire and a combat site
Left of west and coming in a hurry
With the furies breathing down your neck

Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop
Look at that low plane! Fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, Common Food
But it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched

It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

Six o'clock. TV hour
Don't get caught in foreign tower
Slash and burn, return
Listen to yourself churn
Lock him in uniform and book burning, bloodletting
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate
Light a candle, light a votive
Step down, step down
Watch a heel crush, crush
Uh oh, this means no fear; cavalier
Renegade and steer clear!
A tournament, a tournament
A tournament of lies
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives
And I decline

It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
(It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It's time I had some time alone)
I feel fine

It's the end of the world as we know it
(It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it
(It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It's time I had some time alone)

The other night I tripped a nice
Continental drift divide
Mountains sit in a line
Leonard Bernstein, Leonid Brezhnev
Lenny Bruce, and Lester Bangs
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly beans, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? (Right!)

It's the end of the world as we know it
(It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it
(It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine
(It's time I had some time alone)

It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine

The producers loved that bit too because every 20 minutes a character recalls that this happened

Even though it's about climate change, it still matches up pretty well for COVID. Just a happy little coincidence of living in the end times.
