Just an big ensemble cast of whacked out sycophants slowly consuming each other as they desperately fight to survive another week in the administration. This would be amazing, like if Trump, like just transition to something else or time jump any time someone is about to interact with Trump. Like someone goes into a room and then just immediately exit the room in the same shot and everyone is talking/reacting to how this two hour meeting just went. But I also want to see the z-grade no budget dogshit sympathetic Trump movie that gets created by and for the evangelical market.

Does anyone remember that "historically accurate" King Arthur movie from about 15 years ago with Clive Owen as Arthur? Didn't that have a sequel, or was it just a dvd that used the same design as the poster to the first one to trick you into thinking it was one? Also, the thing that's bugged me about that movie since I saw it is how Lancelot is the narrator, but then he dies in the final battle, and continues narrating what happened next.

This and Kiera Knightly's nipple belt and the constant lip service of WE'RE LIKE ROMANS SEE IT'S HISTORICALLY ACCURATE are pretty much the only things anyone who remembers the movie remembers from the movie.

I remember it having a pretty kickass cast, but yeah the movie was super forgettable, and the Keira Knightley/Clive Owen romance kinda creepy.

Stellan Skarsgard plays a Saxon warlord but if I recall correctly he does this weird semi-Texan accent because he was really angry with Dubya at the time.

Holdover from 2017: The Last Jedi is expected to do badly in China (where Star Wars has never been the world-conquering franchise it is everywhere else), which combined with its slowdown in North America may yet vindicate my expectation that it won't be the number one movie for 2017.

I have to confess, I briefly thought this 2017 Guy Ritchie King Arthur movie was some weird long term sequel to the lovely one from 2004 that we're talking about. Like Elizabeth coming out in 1998 and Elizabeth: The Golden Age coming out in 2007.

I remember when I was five, I saw the trailer for Cutthroat Island on TV but then I never saw the movie itself, so when Pirates of the Caribbean came out about seven years later, I thought that it was the same thing and there'd just been a really, really long gap between the trailer and the movie.

I'm not surprised at Fate of the Furious' overseas success, but I'm kind of stunned seeing how little it did relatively in the US. It seemed like it was super hyped everywhere I went and folks were excited. Also interesting to see IT just about evenly split between US and elsewhere, I guess everyone hates clowns even if they didn't have John Wayne Gacy in their country.

Really that thing is an alien, it isn't even a mammal, so it's a mistake to assume that that substance was milk.

Cutthroat Island is a decent big budget pirate actioner. The first Pirates is better but so what, check out Cutthroat anyway.

Like sure Carbots VIII: This Chug's For Choo made its budget back just from endorsement deals and the profit was four times the GDP of most countries but that's 10% below our projections! Someone's going to lose their head!

That last sentence almost makes it all sound exciting, when the sad reality is that nobody ever loses their head, a bunch of morons just write a lot of stupid emials and then the next movie is made.

Well it was more that the script for Entrapment was changed after he was cast so that he didn't hook up with Zeta Jones anymore and he was gravely offended.
