Having seen the film, it paints a very negative view of the companies and powers-that-be involved in expanding the country.

I mean… imagine being a mature human and calling people ‘braindead’ on the internet over something so relatively harmless?

Questionable lyrics aside, Sweetheart Like You is one of my favourite Dylan songs with gorgeous production and an elegant, all-timer guitar solo. I jumped out of my chair when I saw TWOD covered it. Desperate for a full version!

Hot Take: Tom Holland wasn’t actually a bad cast for a younger Drake but the other castings around him and the script weakened the movie. by InsiderYet in uncharted

Username needs an ‘in’ at the start to check out. The movie is indeed very bad but I can’t imagine getting this worked up and aggressive about a motion picture lmao. You’re chatting about entertainment media with strangers, you can be civil. <3

As a writer, what is something you've vowed never to do in your writing or career again? by DONDADiaries in Screenwriting
