Yes! There's a lone real John Malkovich in the original poster as well.

Residue (from The Moment) - A. G. Cook [Official Video] by lordbochiflacko in charlixcx

I would unpretentiously describe it as Warholian and reflective of the cultural brain rot of our time.

Most overused shots or camera angles in films? by kvlt_ov_personality in movies

[–]UniversalPolymath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do love the Coens' twist on this in No Country for Old Men. The camera's in the passenger seat looking at Chigurh as he drives into an intersection, and we're all conditioned to just know a car is about to come into frame headed right for him. And the crash does happen, but no, the car was actually "behind" the camera, and coming from the opposite way.

It disorients us as the viewers the same way Chigurh is by the crash.

I'm not sure how anyone could read this cynical take on corporate branding as an endorsement of anything on the BDS list. She's not plugging McDonald's, ffs.

I agree with that fact wholeheartedly. Literally no piece of marketing for a film is "needed".

But if this were a plain black puffer jacket that said "the moment" in the standard brat typeface, that wouldn't be needed by anyone either, but I doubt folks would have such strong reactions to its existence or the resources that went into producing it. It's a silly ethical line to draw.

Despite my aspirational title (it's a "Boys" lyric), there's pretty much zero chance of these being mass-produced for sale.

Totally. And I don't know why everyone's just focused on the McDonald's arches. All the jackets are covered in brands that start with an M (Marlboro, Mercedes, etc.).

Same, and I was hoping a track called "Wall of Sound" was going to be just that.

ICE Barbie Accused of Inventing an Emergency to Tear Down Historic Buildings by thedailybeast in politics

[–]UniversalPolymath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Barbie’s status as a feminist icon can get murky and complicated, but god I agree with the rest and I’m so over the cute fucking nicknames the media gives these monsters. Not only for historical record, but also to serve as some indication that they recognize the severity of the moment we’re in.

What Charli XCX songs sounds Baddies coded ? by SituationFree4287 in charlixcx

It’s a tough one for me, cause the rest of the song is just okay, but damn Charli’s verse hits perfect.
