@FactsNof33lings @Rellez4K I mean, “swole” is not really new slang so Mr. Olympia came across as a bit dumb and insecure after misunderstanding a compliment, so not sure any generation is being well-presented there

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@MrPearl420 @1GoodPlay @Rellez4K Heath didn’t understand he was being complimented and got defensive, not sure why so many goofballs are missing that

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@PixelPoncho_ @JakobKolness @NextBestPicture Yes, because it’s so implausible with China’s small population, the cultural relevance of the source material, and the general acclaim from critics and audiences. People like you really do enjoy being so easily influenced, huh?

@cj382847 @disparutoo She’s been around since the ‘80s, becoming an international star, then establishing a career in the West, then got an acclaimed role in a movie that was a WOM success and awards-winner. She got the paycheck after years of working in the industry, it’s not that hard to understand

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@WeaponizedSmirk @disparutoo Her English is good, dummy, she just has an accent. Western viewers won’t watch the type of foreign movies she made her name with years ago, but they’ll watch the Hollywood movies they influenced, so it’s smart of her to just go to Hollywood and get paid

@njalbertini @GeorgeStWendel @TheLaurenChen It may increase international appeal if the actor is popular in other markets or, in this case, starring in one of the biggest shows is gonna open up opportunities, regardless of woke pandering or language lessons

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@IdenhoDX So it’s the same situation as it was for Nakamura, Asuka and Iyo Sky and they seem happy in the WWE

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@TetraVaal0 @Kelsig3D The OP is a vet but still enjoys Woo’s style of action, and it’s not like he’s gonna be the only person like that

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@TetraVaal0 @Kelsig3D Among movie critics, Woo’s most highly praised work will still be held in higher regard than the Extraction’s and maybe the John Wick movies as well, so it’s not like the consensus indicates that unrealistic gun handling makes for bad movies.

@strangeharbors You got baited

@Jumpkick313 Hello, is there a way for listeners to list movie titles to see if you guys heard of them? There are movies that come to mind when I listen and curious if you all are familiar with them. (Not necessarily asking you to review them, just curious if you heard of them)

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@Jumpkick313 Hello. Has there been any discussion about reviewing "The Raid" movies from 2011 and 2014, "Drive" from 1997 with Mark Dacascos, or "Rapid Fire" from 1992 on Fist, Kicks and Flixx?

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@AishahAlam46433 @Luiz_Fernando_J They didn’t really love Meg 2 going by audience scores and it’s not going to reach the prior movie’s performance even though it co-stars Wu Jing. It also has Chinese producers and is aimed at a Chinese market, so a comparison to Oppenheimer doesn’t say much

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@SW_Fan10000 @Chadkalle Parasite is not an Oscar-bait movie for numerous reasons. It’s also a genre movie, made by Bong Joon-ho, a genre filmmaker

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@InfamousVirgo Agreed, people should stop whining about racism in America when there’s China. You want to complain about racism in America? Then get out and go somewhere else

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@thatstarwarsgrl Also, the Black Panther poster you talked about was a Taiwan poster.

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@thatstarwarsgrl So are you going to acknowledge the Chinese posters that show her skin color? Also, it’s pretty silly to suggest that they removed Maz Kanata from the Star Wars poster because the voice actress was Black but not mention that Oscar Isaac was also removed lol

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@HasansTheorem @Laufey_son @thatstarwarsgrl The Black Panther poster is for Taiwan, look at the release date

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@noth456 @Luiz_Fernando_J Why? The first movie did well there.

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@lazyariel @Luiz_Fernando_J First movie made $60 million and Soul is the #2 Pixar movie in China, but yeah, keep whining about racism

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@JLRGenX The Black Panther poster that was repeatedly referenced was for Taiwan, not China

[Mike Johnson @MikeJohnnn]

@JLRGenX Why not acknowledge that in addition to Chewie, Oscar Isaac and an alien character were also removed from the SW poster? Why leave Boyega on at all? The Dune poster story was quickly debunked: https://t.co/B69p8tjimQ
