@ABHIVEERSS@MattWalshBlog I’m proud to say that, despite being a film buff for decades, I’ve never watched Game of Thrones or any of its offspring—and I haven’t watched a single Star Wars film or TV series since The Force Awakens.
This color palette is pure Robert Eggers in The Northman, AFAIC.
I wasn’t even a conservative, and I still felt that (probably to a lesser degree).
And ideology isn’t really at the heart of it. It’s sheepology: unimaginative people following the herd, all with a chip on their shoulder. Nothing more profound than that.
And, at bottom, they don’t believe in truth. That’s the real core of it. No real target for curiosity about the outside.
@jpodhoretz This movie seems to inspire even more self-assured “deep” (conflicting) interpretations than Charles Foster Kane. I suspect the late, great David Bordwell was right to describe Nolan’s method as one of strategic ambiguity in his book on the director’s films.
@asymmetricinfo Also, reading the journals would make any sentient, morally serious person with common sense dismiss them even more.
There’s that too.
I know it’s still too early for most people, but as far as I’m concerned—and have been for at least a decade—there is only one viable solution.
@RLewisReports@JoelWBerry@jarvis_best 😂 I have to ask which model you used for that one? No way its Seedance, or Gemini (and Grok doesn't take videos as far as I know).
@Mr_Andrew_Fox Walking away is good enough. The Hormuz thing will backfire in the long run anyway and leave both Iran and the Arabs weaker and more depleted.
