Cal alum. Ex-GOP. Suspended twice by Twitter for wishing ill on members of the North Korean regime and restating Trump’s preferred border control policy.

@JonahDispatch @TNLFFL Everything from the opening steel mill scene leads up to the “This is this. From now on you’re on your own” scene during their trip to the cabin after the wedding. The characterizations by all are phenomenal. One of the most audacious Best Pictures ever. Could not be made today.

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@JonahDispatch The wedding scene is about right bc that & the 1st hunting trip section makes us care deeply for the characters. Needed for 3rd act payoff. What could be cut some is the part where he’s first enlisted for Russian Roulette and De Niro’s Heart of Darkness boat ride towards the end.

@AntSpeaks Agree. Among the things I’ve seen that break immersion:

Jason Bourne
Lupita Nyong’o
Anne Hathaway
Zendaya
Spider-Man
Batman
“Daddy”
“Let’s go!”

Nolan’s thesis that “Daddy” connects better with modern sensibilities than “Father”: that is demonstrably false. If he’s wrong there…

@ProjectLincoln @TheRickWilson The end of the Trump presidency may involve a Scarface-style bullet bacchanal with blasted fortified doors, grenade launchers, smoke…Oh, and Tony’s little friend.

@JohnDalyBooks I think Stormy Daniels was onto something. It’s kinda brilliant. H/t @StormyDaniels

@THR @RadioFreeTom As a fresh-off-the-boat immigrant kid from Korea, I learned English from Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe by watching shows like “Emergency!” And “Adam 12.” They were early American archetypes for a kid discovering American popular culture. Not bad models for a kid to have.

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@RadioFreeTom If Trump truly believes his own cognitive test 🐂 💩, that is genuinely troubling for a sitting president of the United States. If he knows that those cognitive tests are merely to exclude things like Alzheimer’s as a cause for his bizarro behavior, that’s not reassuring either.

@svdate @RadioFreeTom This answers a burning question I had: What would be the architectural design expression equivalent to a hypothetical love child between Uday Hussein and Liberace?

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@SethAbramson @DanGarrett97 Trump’s the MAGA Liberace, and he’s playing the country like Horowtiz playing a Steinway on Sunday. 🎹

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@charlescwcooke It’s reasonable to judge from the trailers that Nolan made some goofy calls: black Helen; Daddy?: Let’s go? Many are wary of Refresh Revisionism to sync with modern tastes. Hooked On Classics sought to popularize Beethoven by overlaying synthesizer drumbeats on the Ode to Joy.

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@JonahDispatch Pointing out MAGA hypocrisy should be an imperative at every turn. That doesn’t justify Platner, and sensible people are not. Your article is meant for the partisan nihilists. The Dems ultimately did what The GOP couldn’t with Trump, though I do concede it’s not 🍎 to 🍎 case.

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@RLHeinrichs No legitimate PhD in Philosophy, of all fields, would ever seriously posit such compound absurdities. The guy is certifiable.

[Edward Oh 🇺🇸🇰🇷🇺🇦🇮🇱 @EdwardHBOh]

@EricLDaugh I will accord you the respect of assuming that you are fine being a regime propagandist because it’s a nice gig and that you simply can’t be the MAGA incel your daily - hourly - posts suggest you are because no one can be this gullible who doesn’t choose to be.

@CGasparino How’s the gnocchi?

[Rebeccah Heinrichs @RLHeinrichs]

I would be bad at my job if I applauded every thing a politician did. I do my best to give policy advice. Trump’s efforts to get NATO to rearm have been successful. Rubio working with Denmark privately to meet security needs in Greenland works. Trump’s threats are indefensible.

@JonahDispatch If there was a Mount Rushmore for leftist wackos, she’d be one of the faces.

@KenGardner11 This is a passive-aggressive reaction at scale to decades of cultural appropriation browbeating.

@SarahLongwell25 @gtconway3d Whenever they do Fox News spots, they have to check their souls in at the front like checking in cell phones before entering a SCIF. They know the narrative. They know the assignment.

And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances”
