I couldn't believe the GOP didn't have issues with the movie so I googled it. Sure enough... I might have to see it now.
This is what’s got the pubs worked up, a nonsensical scribbled map that WB says is meaningless and intended to look like it was drawn by a child…. But they interpret it show that China owns the South China Sea…
There are 8 random dashes near “Asia”, which doesn’t look like Asia, so I guess that’s what republicans think is chinas “9 dash line”…. Because of math. There are also 10 dashes near what looks like Greenland, so that must be the part that Trump bought.
Waterworld is like a B- for me. It’s not terrible. I never got the hate. If Barbie is as bad as Waterworld I’ll be fine.
amazing film and her acting in it is phenomenal (same for Allison Janney & Paul Walter Hauser Shawn) but yeah she’s not supposed to be a smoke show in that one and she’s not.
Y’all are crazy. Waterworld was a travesty. Kevin Costner has gills, dirt is currency and Dennis Hopper leads a gang of bad guys on jetskis powered by crude oil that they got from where exactly? plus the bad guys are smoking cigarettes the whole film. Last I checked tobacco is a plant. Beyond awful.
Again from the New Yorker. This is the part of what they are trying to pull off that will make the movie very interesting to me if they succeed Gerwig’s Barbie Land is a post-feminist utopia, or perhaps a prelapsarian one. “You live in a place where there’s no pain, and nothing dies, and there’s no suffering, and you are not separate from your environment, and you have no shame. And then, all of a sudden, you have shame,” she said, laughing. “I mean, we know the story! It’s in some books people have heard of.” The best way to incorporate this tragic arc into a joke-dense comedy, Gerwig decided, was to heighten the dissonance. “I wanted Margot and Ryan to play it as if they were in a drama on some level,” she told me. Early in the movie, Robbie’s Barbie begins to experience intrusive thoughts about death, interrupting a succession of “perfect days” and immaculately coördinated girls’ nights. Later, when her feet—until now perennially arched, the better to fit in her heels—go flat, the scene plays like body horror. Ken, too, has an awakening ahead of him. “Instead of women not having, you know, jobs or credit cards or power in the world, it’s the Kens,” Gerwig said. “And then they realize, ‘Wait a minute. I don’t just want to look good all day and wait for you.’ ”
If you described Star Wars as a sibling kissing movie with magical powers, laser swords, and talking robots it would sound dumb too. The crude came from the Exxon Valdez the bad guys were on. During embryonic development a fetus has gill slits so…I don’t know. It ain’t Shakespeare it’s a decent action movie in the water but it also ain’t Highlander 2 bad.
And jetskis run on crude oil that’s 60+ years old? Did they have a refinery on the boat? And don’t even get me started on the acting. Watch this 5 minute video and then tell me more about Star Wars. JFC I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
