It’s moved towards “bootlickers who insist on ‘acceptance’ can eat a dick,” thx for checking

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Jon Chu understands that a single stern look from Michelle Yeoh is enough to atomize a human being's entire self-worth, and he has weaponized this to great effect

"Dancing Through Life" is such a bop and Chu directs the hell out of it. And it's as jaw-on-the-floor a Movie Star announcement as anyone's gotten in a long time for Jonathan Bailey

in general, the moment after a surprising, decisive victory seems like the time to study why that person won, not to lecture them on how they theoretically could have won better
OPINION: "Calling the president a fascist does nothing to advance the Democrats’ cause — and more of the party’s leaders would do well to realize that." — Jonathan Zimmerman
To defeat Trump, stop calling him names

you can argue about whether or not Trump’s administration is fascist; the elite insistence that, even if true, no one should call him that because it sounds rude is a substantial part of how we got here

they may be geriatric but the Massachusetts senators will absolutely fight you
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

It's weird that the Emerald City just had makeover stations specific for scarecrows, robots, and lions ready to go, right? It seems like a weird thing to have on standby.
Always striking to rewatch WIZARD OF OZ and remember that it was already an old/beloved text by the time we got the movie that is the reason everyone remembers WIZARD OF OZ.

Dorothy opening a black and white door into a colorful Oz may legitimately be the single greatest shot in all of cinema. It's just magic.
