i rewatched the 2001 movie "evolution" and my only thought is that orlando jones is carrying that film from start to finish

It's funny that they can't come up for anything funny for the one female character to do so they default to "clumsy."

She trips over maybe twice so Duchovny's character refers to her as a "walking disaster area" or something.

quote:

On election day, Cam's victory appears certain until Marty exposes the Motch brothers' intent and promises to preserve Hammond if elected. Cam still wins and remains congressman due to rigged voting machines owned by the Motch brothers. While Cam gloats, Marty shows his large scars to Cam and reveals that he looked up to Cam in school for getting rid of the dangerous slide. Realizing he has strayed from his true objectives as a politician, Cam withdraws from the election and Marty wins by default. Cam earns back Mitch's respect, and Marty later appoints him his chief of staff.

Six months later, Marty and Cam expose the Motch brothers, who are called to appear before Congress. The brothers point out that everything they did is legal under Citizens United v. FEC, but they are arrested for their association with Wattley, who is actually an international fugitive.

Hollywood political comedy is so hilariously out of touch with reality.

So I was bored and ended up watching Freddy Got Fingered.

Tom Green crawled so that Eric Andre could run.

Red Letter Media is totally right about this movie. If you grew up with '90s raunchy comedies, you are in on the joke (as well as knowing or realizing that
the film is essentially Tom Green giving a 90 minute long middle finger to movie execs). If this were on Netflix, it would be a cult classic with Zoomers.

It's been on Netflix. I think it may be a Disney property now lol

It's funny that The Matrix came out the same year as The Phantom Menace, then when it came time for Reloaded the Wachowskis decided what the world needed was an interlude where Morpheus takes a trip to Zion to deal with some bureaucracy.

it's okay to hate stuff for the sole reason that it's made by a multi billion dollar conglomerate

but also, this is a really dumb critique. marvel movies might superficially show that having an unaccountable team of superpowered cops running the world has some downsides, but at the end of the movie the avengers still exist. does every marvel movie actually have a sad ending and us dumb leftists just can't see it? or is the moral of every marvel movie just "not all cops are bad"

I don't think every Marvel movie has the same message.

There are the Marvel movies where the villains are corporations or off brand Nazi's that have infiltrated the government, but there are others where the cia or the air force are played as heroes.

Also Tony Stark inventing limitless free energy but the movies have to be set in our reality so it just has to be hand waved away.

it’s the same kind of soft propaganda that stuff like command and conquer/red dawn fall into too, the idea that the other/minority groups are either just as bad or worse than the status quo

The soviet ending of Red Alert 2 explicitly shows the stock market being shut down forever aka a better timeline than ours.

Lindsay Ellis has a great three part series on what a huge fuckup the Hobbit movies were behind the scenes.
