I get that he has a platform to address a real issue with low visibility. But at the same time, I cringe at how he's being reduced to "Parkinson's boy" as his identity now.

I thought it tried too hard, was a wannabe video game, lacked any attention span credit for the audience, and made me cringe. I wanted all the main characters to die for their tedium. I did, however, find Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon guilty of some of the things and also disliked that. But...

Of course, let me put my biases on the table: * I think superhero movies are brain-dead * I thought the action scenes in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were the worst part of the movie * I'm not easily swayed by the notion that a middle aged Chinese woman getting an action hero role as "social...

After everyone was fanboiing it months ago, I finally got around to seeing Everything Everywhere All At Once. I don’t get the fuss. If you peel away the verse-splitting gimmick, the story falls apart. The director seemed to replace viewer confusion for well-developed characters and...

And now you know why some of us called Marcelo Estigarribia "Jaguar Paw"...

This was pretty funny though at the Baftas

That actually would have been better, funnier, and more appropriate. :D

If you're up for an award at an Oscars with the comedian as emcee, you've already opted in. That's the price of admission. https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2017/02/142719/jimmy-kimmel-oscars-opening-speech-best-insults...

Not sure how it is where you are, but in California it’s not legal to walk up and slap people in the face. But then I see this as absolutely the wrong lesson. Breaking the law and initiating physical violence is a response of the weak, the inarticulate, the damaged from childhood abuse. There...

According to California, it was at least battery and likely could be assault https://www.aronlawfirm.com/understanding-the-difference-between-battery-and-assault-in-california Inflicting unsolicited physical violence on someone is never considered "just a love tap" if it's done with the intent...

It was a lame joke. But do you think he wouldn't react even for a good joke? The celebrity roasts put up far more insulting stuff, and even Justin Bieber managed to be a good sport about it. But this guy? Talk about privilege. If I go to a work event with colleagues and commit an assault, I'm...

Nah, he's just happy to see you.

Finally saw Summer of Soul. Love the concept, the music, the acts, and the resurfacing of lost history. But being a fan of Questlove and all, the narrative, audio quality, and weight of the film was a bit lacking.

I adore My Brilliant Friend. That show is fantastic. The movie isn’t THAT good. But it’s definitely solid. It’s been picking up a lot of festival awards too (Venice, etc.).

And to think of all the grief I got for calling out Netflix for this 2-3 years ago...

I'm a cuck for Elena Ferrante's work. The Lost Daughter was pretty good. If you're gonna do a chic flick, this is how it should be.

Most Americans have moved on like last week’s meme or discredited it entirely based on the source.

Liked the French Dispatch, but that’s usually my thing. Not among either his best or worst, as others said. And that’s fine by me. Also saw, more out of future water cooler convo, Don’t Look Up. Silly and over-the-top. And lacking the bite that even an Idiocracy had, and that wasn’t a very...

Lady Gag ain't my thang

It stinks too high of a Hollywoodized retread of a crime drama of the rich and famous. I've had really poor past experiences with movies targeting that audience.
