Some- not all- the reviews resemble crimes of passion- or a crucifixion… the murder with an extra dozen blows- the extra zeal in driving the pointed nail.
And those pieces can then, paradoxically be defined by the very adjectives they wield against the film: “arrogant, bombastic, excessive…”
There were at least 3 monologues that I was enthralled with, and each one peeled back a new layer that challenges you to rethink what you’ve been watching and grips you in unpredictable ways.
Anyways I’m still thinking about the movie, and want to see it again.
Saw #Digger in #Imax Thursday night & the majority of audience at my screening really enjoyed it! Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Tom Cruise & the rest of the crew deliver a high level artistic satire with amazing performances across the board. The way the film unfolds is brilliant!
@MikeKalinowski 100% agree with this take, in my opinion this is one of the best adventures he had, the traps, the set pieces, the mine cart chase scene etc! “Fortune & glory kid, fortune & glory”
@MikeKalinowski@Todd_Garner Cool meeting you today Mike! I thought the movie did the game justice and the fights were good ! I have a few favorites, kung lao & Liu kang being one of them !
MAGA authoritarianism is pretending the president is “joking” when he makes death threats, but comedians are somehow “shaping public policy” when they make jokes.
This @MegynKelly rant is so bigoted and idiotic... NONE of “her version of America” even originated here 😂
Football = Rugby = England
Apple Pie = England
Meatloaf = Germany
Fried Chicken = Scotland/West Africa
Christianity = Middle East
English = England
@LangmanVince Beta.. look where he is and where you are you Beta piece of shit. “Woke this woke that” that’s all you guys have in your weak minded programed pea sized brain rot.
Hey MAGA, you upset that athletes are speaking up about our country at Olympics?
You know what looks worse for us as a country? When every Nation of the world boos the Vice President of the United States when he shows up, that’s what the world think of us.
To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets.
They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.
The suspension of @jimmykimmel and the promise to silence other Late Night hosts for criticizing the administration should disturb everyone on the Right, Left, and Center. It’s wrong and anyone with a conscience knows it’s wrong.
Let’s make sure everyone understands the facts with Kimmel.
As the right is trying to paint this as “at-will” termination.
-Nextar the parent company of Kimmel’s show is seeking FCC approval for a merger.
-Kimmel made comments about Trump on Monday night (months after Trump openly said he wanted to get Kimmel fired next)
-Reporting is that Trump had the FCC lean on Nextar over these comments.
-Apparently they expressly used the line “we can do this the easy way, or the hard way”
-Multiple executives at the network have on background said they “had no issue with Kimmel’s statements but the Trump threat loomed” referring to the merger.
This was *NOT* a network dissatisfied with Kimmel.
This was *NOT* a network embarrassed or horrified by what Kimmel said.
This was *NOT* a network that thought he was unfunny, or underperforming.
This was *NOT* a company freely choosing to fire an employee.
This was expressly the federal government weaponizing federal departments, in retribution for someone being critical of the President.
This is LITERALLY what the 1st Amendment exists for.
It does not protect you from private actions by private entities.
It protects you from actions by the government to censor your speech.
Whether brazen and direct, or through coercion and threat.
This is not about if Kimmel was offensive or not.
This is about speech.
@megynkelly Now write “I’m not sure who needs to hear this but Donald Trump get on air and lies daily to the American people, he’s also a little bitch who whines & moans about anyone telling the truth”
Take a seat megyn & stfu !
