OMG!

Post by Stewball »

Of all the bad news out there this weekend, this is the worst: Brain dead cinema is sucking up all the oxygen quicker than I thought it could. If you see me blubbering and swimming in the gutters in the next few weeks you'll know what happened. I'm not really sure I'm believing it....$533 mil!!

Yes, but what we're seeing here is a schism between a reasonable representation of reality (Bullitt, The Driver, Drive and the upcoming Baby Driver--rut titles notwithstanding), and fantasy that jibes with reality only as long as you don't actually think about it. Of course this schism has always been there, but the LCDers today have unprecedented fingertip access to massive digital information, yet their cognitive skills are almost as bad as Medieval feudal illiterate peasants--I say "almost" advisedly.

I was thinking the same thing about three movies ago. Why are these movies still being made? Who is in charge of naming them, and why can't they pick a format?

Now that I would pay a big premium to see.

ROTFLMAO You better copyright that so you can get the royalties when they use it. Of course by then it won't be funny any more and you'd be accused of political incorrectness.

swift and salty?


:?: It calls something to mind, but that can't be it.
