Trump finally getting convicted is very funny, but in a functioning society, the president secretly trying to start WWIII would get more attention than a candidate paying off a porn star, not less.
@DiscussingFilm It's already happenning. There's no way that TETRIS movie wasn't made by AI. It was even produced by "AI Films." It was cobbled together out of YouTube videos, Wikipedia, and an audio book, I'd bet money. That "Do you trust me" scene, yikes.
@TSoS_ I thought it was great. 4.5/5 stars as the ending was a little ragged & could have had more impact. But I definitely want to watch it again. And it adds a lot to FURY ROAD.
@aliner@fsgbooks I've read this twice & not a single detail has stayed with me. Hmm. I read it the second time because I had forgotten I had read it the first. Not something that usually happens to me in my reading. Good to hear it's good....
@Jtaylor0_3 I'm still going to see it and take a crowd. It'll make its money back. Studios & legacy media are all trying to build a narrative of failure around a unique work from a true visionary, as usual.
@DiscussingFilm Here's hoping there won't be anything as dumb as the part in WAR OF THE WORLDS where we learn the aliens had been on Earth for millions of years waiting for humans to evolve.
