Tea With Mussolini always been intriqued by the premise but it had bad reviews and too young to care about a film like when it came out, sort of half watched while grinding online today, gotta say i barely paid any attention and not even the florence scenes really piqued my interest despite the time i've spent there - will probably make another go at it in a few years when i'm paying full attention and have a lady who would like watching it

Green Book my god it was awful, you can literally predict everything before it happens because it's such blatant moralistic oscar bait - just a really terrible film and so surface level deep that paying it 10% attention was too much, everything was so simple and laid out without subtlety that i didn't miss anything but sure wish i did

Green Book as the foundation for a thought provoking story had the potential to be so much more than the reality of Green Book the movie.

If you're a fan of The Godfather, and even if you're not, this is an amazing interview. The guy has had the maddest life of anyone I can think of. To give you a taste, a few highlights include:
Spoiler:
Killing a man at 12
Massaging Marilyn Monroe at 15
Being kidnapped and tortured by Pablo Escobar, then making friends with him
Starring in the Godfather
Meeting El Chapo
Lots more stories

yeah remember seeing the previews and thinking it had potential and then when the reviews came in it all clicked about what it was

hope they reboot the general concept but make viggo's character still racist

you don't throw out a cup a black man just used and then suddenly you and everyone you know loves black people because you went on a road trip together

He also claims to have seen JFK do blow off a chick, was secretly involved in the Iranian Revolution, helped Marlon Brando’s son beat murder charges, and knows the truth about the deaths of JFK and Marilyn Monroe.

More ridiculous than that, though, is that he says as a young boy he worked for a mob boss who because he admired the boy’s “grit”, trusted him - rather than an adult - to travel with a sealed envelope to New Orleans for a special delivery of a message to a mob boss associate of his mob boss in NY (the special message was supposedly about JFK) happened to bump into Lee Harvey Oswald in the bathroom lol, before the mob boss told him to relay the message “It’s on” to his mob boss back in NY. It’s amazing the FBI didn’t stumble across this tidbit while trying to get to the bottom of the biggest assassination in the history of our country.

In other words, this guy is completely full of sh*t

Rorschach test

a type of projective test used in psychoanalysis, in which a standard set of different shapes and colors is presented one by one to the subject, who is asked to describe what they suggest or resemble offering up a glimpse into the Psyche of that Patient...

The first one was good (and original), but has been copied so many times it's become a cliche.

ah, the monthly "star wars sucks" discussion...

let's try another angle this month to maybe appreciate the influence star wars had.

the consensus itt is that ALIEN is great, yes?

the only reason ALIEN got made is because of the success of Star Wars.

Do u want to live in a world with no ALIEN? ofc not. so u see, Star Wars isn't all bad!

I think the stuff like the CGI Banthas is perfectly fine, but I still can’t believe Lucas edited in Vader saying “No....NOOOOO!” before he threw Palpatine over the ledge. JFC.

making greedo clearly shoot first was the worst edit, remember the first time watching as a kid thinking - hey that guy isn't a typical hero, kind of gritty, maybe he's still bad and going to betray them later etc etc

born in 82, star wars left an indelible mark on me

all through my childhood i carried those trench run scenes with me not knowing where they came from

then in 95 (was easy to find via wiki because that's when they were released and it ws just before the special edition came out in 97 and we bought that too) they released the films as a trilogy, i saw it and was like "hey i've heard a lot about this but never seen it before" and we got from costco, we normally only bough disney videos and it wasn't common for me to make that kind of request or for my parents to be like "sure throw it in the cart" but something about it just called to me - distinctly remember how unusually lax my parents were about buying it because normally they'd come up with a reason not to like "oh we can rent it" etc etc

remember watching and just loving every minute of it and then when the trench scene came around suddenly all this stuff clicked and i knew where those vague visual memories were from and it was like i was reunited with part of myself that i'd previously lost - closest any kind of impact any film had on me like this was seeing jurassic park in theaters

then i introduced my brother to it and he loved it too, didn't normally watch the same movies over and over again but there were times when my brother and i would watch one of those three at least once per week and often more frequently

god i loved those films

watching them now doesn't do anything for me, but when i still young... just wow

also, in all seriousness, a lot of the star wars universe novels make wonderful light beach reading
