I can’t believe that a movie by the guy who made Road Trip and Old School has gotten Hollywood to lose its damn mind. The same people that called Bob Dole an old fuddy duddy for criticizing Natural Born Killers are turning around and saying filmmakers need to be mindful the art they create.
They don’t have to be mindful of ANYTHING. To quote Tarantino: “Wait a minute.... I can film whatever the fuck I want.” Hopefully this will earn a swift and brutal backlash. Only an idiot could consider a movie to be “controversial” anymore. Give me a fucking break. Am I allowed to bitch about women in action movies because the very notion of a woman beating a man in fight itself is fucking ridiculous? But I don’t. It’s just a fucking movie.
It’s controversial because it shines a light on something that society would rather pretend doesn’t exist. Same shit with Taxi Driver. Plus people are fucking dumb.
There are two versions of this world: the world that you wish it was, and the one that actually exists.
Same. Im eminently more interested in WWI than WWII and there just has not been enough movies made about it. Also is that Tommen Baratheon?
Oh by the way, the NYPD are sending their armoured stormtroopers to “protect” the patrons attend Joker premieres across the city. There has been not one single threat called in... just, you know, the movie is sure to incite violence. ...unlike having a bunch of heavily-armed schmucks I wouldn’t trust with a slingshot treating everyone like they’re a person of interest.
You’re just excited about the tie-in to the My Little Pony reboot. We’ll see how well Abrams unfucks things from where Rian Johnson left them.
