Really enjoyed writing about my favorite show for Movie Jawn

MJ’s @phantomcobra.bsky.social rrviees SLOW HORSES season 6 and says: “While not quite Mission: Impossible or the Bourne movies, the show is pretty action-packed. This season has all its predecessors beat for overall bodies, and surprise main character deaths.” #SlowHorses is streaming on Apple TV.

Democrats caved and/or facilitated this monopolization of practically every major media property in the US into the hands of a MAGA fascist psychopath. If the US had an opposition party, each of its presidential contenders would would vow to dissolve this monopoly by any means necessary.

In a year where we hosted the World Cup. That’s nuts

Visitors to the US are on track to drop by almost two million year-on-year. “We’re the only major country in the world losing visitation,” the head of the US Travel Association said. “It’s mind-boggling.” www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

No. No. I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is, okay, we just come right out and show people that the whole game is rigged, right? And then somehow we managed to charge people money for us to show them that. That's all.

The post credit scene starts but instead of meeting a new character or seeing a new threat it’s just a darkened room in Burbank. Josh d’Amaro is there and he’s just feeing the actors contracts into a paper shredder yelling “genie you’re free” every time.

Is it that the movie stands on its own and isn't just there to set up a bunch of other shit, because otherwise I don't think so

Marvel fans need to prepare for "a very surprising ending" to Avengers: Doomsday, directors Joe and Anthony Russo have teased. https://bit.ly/4z1aMtK

There’s this documentary about the mob in Philly on Netflix, the big war in the 90s… I had a lot of problems with it from the perspective of documentary history and expressing a narrative, but it has at least one vital lesson (besides the cherry pepper pork chops)

Little to no reflection on how the rhetorical counterpart could have similar effects, at least in those corners. The only people concerned about the dilution of the term “socialist” are socialists suspicious of social democrats calling themselves socialists.

In a way, this is perhaps almost parallel with today’s youth losing fear of the big bad wolves of socialism and communism. You can’t just call everyone a communist and expect the fear to maintain forever. You called neoliberal Obama a communist.

No concern or contrition about the looting of Africa, the supporting of coups and death squads in Africa and Asia and Latin America any time someone’s prospective internal policies could potentially hurt western business bottom lines…

There’s a hitman hired by one side. After he kill’s someone for them, the guys he’s working for assume he’s gonna rat, killing his brother and attempting to kill him. So he becomes a witness. They turn a loyal ally, a minor tool honestly, into a major enemy out of their own paranoia.
