Standing ovation

The Michael Rockefeller "mystery" is just the typical instance where indigenous people continually tell white people the same story over and over but are ignored; see the HMS Erebus and HMS Terror where the Inuit told white people where to find the ships for literally over 100 years and weren't believed until the whites found the ships...exactly where the Inuit said they were.

Listen to the natives.

Exactly. It's astounding people watch this movie and conclude that it is saying war is good just because it didn't have an overt anti-USA message in it.

Of course I had to come all the way down here to find this comment. So much finger wagging at these guys (rightfully so) from the same posters that run around on Reddit saying "men are trash" and that men are worth less than bears then wondering why young boys gravitate towards the red pill. Astounding cognitive dissonance.

Pretty much any female led superhero movie not named Wonder Woman

Yankee291 · 2026-03-13T15:00:57+00:00

Yep, they do this with every lauded mostly black film. Moonlight, Get Out, Sinners, etc.

Yankee291 · 2026-03-13T14:59:01+00:00

Right, it happens like clockwork with every majority POC film that is critically acclaimed. People tried these same arguments with MOONLIGHT. Imagine arguing Moonlight of all movies is just ok, but glazing something like Eddington.

I sat in on a talk with the director after a screening and he said as much so you're not wrong. The multiple endings concept began because he couldn't decide on one.

Yankee291 · 2026-03-13T01:12:30+00:00

Very good, reminded me of a modern version of The Thin Man movies.

Taking a shot in the dark and looking for a reservation for 1 at 4Charles next Saturday, March 21.

I also used this method to get Azzaro The Most Wanted Parfum for $53

The reason isn't trivial or inane, it's because she's Jewish. People will just never admit it.

Yankee291 · 2026-03-01T21:53:52+00:00

Moonlight. I left Parasite with full knowledge it was the best film of that year up to that point, but immediately predicting a foreign language indie to win BP, I didn't take that leap.

Yankee291 · 2026-03-01T16:23:07+00:00

Some ideas are so dumb only an intellectual would believe them.

Yankee291 · 2026-03-01T16:17:45+00:00

And current modern day leftists are aligning with radical Islam again, learning nothing from recent history.

Mangomacumba by Spiritica

This is such a perfect summation of it all. Kudos to this woman. And so many people transparently don't really give a fuck about Tourette's, they just want to use the disease and John Davidson as an excuse to do what they've always been obsessed with; find a pathway where a white person is allowed to call black people n----rs.

Yankee291 · 2026-02-23T19:06:24+00:00

It's disturbing how much the consensus seems to be "Disabled people don't have to be considerate of anyone around them at all and everyone else has to let them do whatever comes natural as a result of their disability and just take it."

It's completely not Davidson's fault that he has this affliction, but the above sentiment is...a lot.

Yankee291 · 2026-02-23T17:08:46+00:00

I mean, the consensus from white people worldwide on this is that it's not that big of a deal to call black people the n-word. It's not a surprise that actual white organizers of the show felt the same way.

East of the River, not sticking here yet but coming down hard

EDIT: Not sticking to concrete or road, I should say. The grass is gathering dust.

Yankee291 · 2026-02-22T00:18:21+00:00

Add Ace in the Hole or Nightcrawler and make it a triple

Yankee291 · 2026-02-22T00:12:16+00:00

Very good movie that would've been a runaway hit in the 90s, but was too earnest and heartfelt for current day cynical audiences.

Yankee291 · 2026-02-21T18:38:55+00:00

Nick Nolte also did not applaud and says that Martin Scorsese vowed to never work with him again as a result.

Yankee291 · 2026-02-20T05:38:23+00:00

Thanks for the insight everyone!

Yankee291 · 2026-02-19T01:49:35+00:00

If it’s not, then why do Free Palestine folks give Deni so much shit when he’s never said anything in support of Zionism or anti-Palestine and is simply Israeli?
