@bdunc1337 @CraigSJ Chapelle is stupid

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

@cuz_speaks McDormand haranguing the priest in act 1 was enough to to elicit my applause not to mention Landry Jones Rockwell sequence to Monsters of Folk

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

@cuz_speaks Oh look who tweets his cousin! You aren’t the first to tell me so. All good w me, I had a really positive reaction to the script but also some issues. To me this year there was not one film I couldn’t find a gripe about so list reflects my gut reactions.

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

Bound to be disputable...also note: Phantom Thread not released in Chicago yet. Missed The Square and Lady Bird likely to be contenders. Don’t @ me. Or do.

Gonna post some best of 2017ers, like anybody asked. But we tweet for ourselves, not other right? Would love to see some from my friends too!

The ISIS line is one hilarious joke, the guy didn’t even have the attention span to read intelligence briefs from Syria...but he did bomb an empty airfield after letting the Russians know to clear the area! Hardcore man!! https://t.co/hByprtznyq

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

Why would smart voters want to put Democrats in Congress in 2018 Election when their policies will totally kill the great wealth created during the months since the Election. People are much better off now not to mention ISIS, VA, Judges, Strong Border, 2nd A, Tax Cuts & more?

@drkencham @realDonaldTrump Don’t let this give you too much peace of mind. I’m an incredibly gifted writer. Probably the number 1 writer.

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

@drkencham @realDonaldTrump I still got busted for run-ons in my graduate thesis. It’s like a disease.

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

Bless ya so good this time of year

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

An issue is that Michael Shannon and Octavia Spencer play the same character they’ve (brilliantly) been playing their whole career. Jenkins on the other hand...Sally....

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

@nilerodgers @chrissyteigen Then you remembered people face this annoying shit everyday and that fishing for sympathy was pathetic and vain?

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

@zoeinthecities Was brutal but I don’t quite understand why depictions of horrible things are tantamount to condoning them. More than open to interpretations that differ from mine and maybe it will enlighten me.

[Riley Powell @RileyDProf]

There are the stupid, the corrupt, the evil, the greedy, those who are all of the above...and then there are just the pathetic. https://t.co/adRkrrB1I3
