We used to be a society that made well-lit, extremely horny fantasy epics with excellent production design and terrible performances. What happened to us? Why did we let Ronald Reagan do this to us?
Watching this triggered a deeper think about something I’ve become a little obsessed with recently: the concept of what storytelling should be. And where I’ve settled on it for now is that we’ve become a little too concerned with thoughts and people explaining them to each other…

I’m not someone who holds the first in an extremely high regard, so I ended up having an awesome time with this.
It’s just a big, bloody movie with an all-timer Denzel performance in it, and some fun palace intrigue. Movies are so good.

My neck is gonna hurt for a week from the whiplash that the scene of the modern day parents telling their son what to do if he’s pulled over by a cop gave me. Zemeckis, you’re a madman.
Bob seems to have fallen into this mode directors of his age seem to fall into where telling a story is almost an end to justify the means of playing with new tech. I don’t really like that, though I have to admit this was a surprisingly compelling watch.

I wonder what dress Mikey Madison is going to be wearing when she wins the Oscar in a few months.

This movie made me realize there is probably a split reality somewhere in the universe where Donald Trump is the beloved but insane owner of my New York Yankees and Hal Steinbrenner is a cartoonishly evil President Businessman.
