I like the ones that lean into them being a lovely person.

Elvis got said to be basically a superhero movie with Elvis (which is fitting for its own reasons) but Napoleon totally should be a supervillain movie. And I don't just mean the usual demonisation. More like Scarface with muskets.

That said I am so tired of when even otherwise fun historical stuff boils down motivations and personalities to 'Because they were totally bad in bed/had a small dick/were molested' usually with no historical evidence either way at best. Lookin' at you, Sandman.

Does The Last Duel count as a biopic?

Honestly, I appreciated how poo poo ROS was. It was clearly a hack job to try and appeal to the angry nerds who were salty over Last Jedi and it’s rejection of all the mystery box plot lines Abrams set up but it was upfront with it being a pile of poo poo.

It's impressive how it managed to piss everyone off, even the full blown Disney Adults and Rey stans couldn't defend it, because there's just nothing there.

Was gonna say American Beauty but basically every movie about mildly sad yuppies at any stage in life.

That's barely worth a spoiler, I think every vaguely genre movie and TV show in the last 15 years has had that theme. Maybe all of fiction, generally.

Definitely half the cartoons.

Gerby did somehow manage to fit in that terrifying bit with the undead librarian that I'm pretty sure gave kids nightmares, though.

From what I hear it's at least somewhat interesting as a view of what liberal Qanon looks like.

They needed to help him solve his murder at the hands of Ritichie Valens.

At least the end was a fitting tie-in to how his death had been faked as cover for joining the Guild of Calamitous Intent.
