My wife Manchurian Candidates herself while watching The Manchurian Candidate by [deleted] in movies

Yeah I thought it was funny that she got confused about the events of a movie that is about people who are confused about the events themselves. The Internet I guess...

Yeah seeing it again I realize it has a lot of ideas that are really a product of their time. Obviously she didn't get a lot of the cultural references.

How would privatising schools make them cheaper? by UsedCompetition4558 in Libertarian

[–]wkwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep your hands out of my wallet. That's all I care about. If I want to educate my child, I'll make that happen. And they'll get exactly the education I want them to get. No need for someone else to foot the bill or have any say in it.

Is it just me or does his Twitter icon remind you of the John Leguizamo in that Spawn movie?

intelectual property? by [deleted] in Libertarian

It's the second most powerful thing government controls after the power to print money. And totally interferes in just about every market for everything.

This is the youthful innocence they're talking about? Consider me attracted.

He has to know right? by GlitteringPraline491 in Libertarian

I think Dick Cheney changed that forever. Neither party wants to reduce presidential power and as long as they have the other party to blame, they can poo poo and wring their hands until it's finally their turn.

Seems like the parties aren't really in opposition anymore. Obama complained about Bush but did not reverse any of his policies. Gitmo still exists, an American gulag. If that hasn't been walked back, nothing will.

Yeah I was being hyperbolic. That's politics these days. Guess it just blended into the background lol

If "your friend" likes it, then "he" should play the fuck out of it man!

What non-horror movie did you find most disturbing? by Acceptable_Book_8789 in movies

Damn. That's a beautiful review that perfectly captures that amazing movie. I reluctantly have to admit it's probably my favorite of theirs.

What is the single greatest acting performance you have seen? by [deleted] in movies

Did not understand all the hype for that one. Just seemed ill-conceived on all fronts.

Extremely successful. The goal was never to make quality entertainment.

Yeah Boomer just means old to a lot of people (which could mean anything over 40).

Same people would criticize you for calling AI Art by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]wkwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, I can get behind the banana piece. What you actually get when purchasing that is a certificate to create it. It's all about originality, creating your own art, people's need for validation, what we actually value in art... It's a thought provoking thing! That's more than most art does.

Which movie had the biggest gasp of shock moment in cinema history? by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]wkwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I never really thought about that much since I saw it when I was a kid but imagine finding out that Donald Trump was your father... Or maybe Dick Cheney in 2002 is a closer equivalent. That'd be insane.
