I agree but Wings of Desire was 36 years ago! I had pretty much written off Wenders as a great feature film (he still makes great documentaries). It’s an incredible comeback film.

Good to know! I did hear about how you need a few chickens for eggs, but I didn't know you could be ok with just one.

Yes. If you want to see fight watch AOC on IG or mayor Pete on Colbert - that’s the way it is done

That helped Obama. Any spectacle helps Trump. Don’t give him what he wants

Exactly. Trump is like a Hugh Jackman in the Prestige - a performer who can’t bear to do his trick and not see the applause. Silence hurts him more than throwing an egg at him will.

2/ When you mud wrestling with a pig, you lose because a pig likes the mud. Trump is the ultimate pig. If the choice is a pig-a-thon Trump will win. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social
going on @colbertlateshow.bsky.social works as well - going on non traditional outlets and providing an alternative.

This review sounds like I would say about Con Air!

I agree everything that was said except the defense of the movie Congo. You liked that movie? If there really were a race of super smart apes would they agree to appear in a movie this bad?
But your in good company as Roger Ebert loved it. I'm on team Siskel here:

2/ E.g., Schumer should run the Senate, but have Chris Murphy be the person who does the media. Ken Martin should certainly oversee the DNC operation, but have someone like Mallory McMorrow do the media. We are being weighed down by leaders who can't effectively communicate on new media platforms.

I totally agree! Ralph Fiennes looked great! Idk about Matt Damon but I’ll reserve judgement

We have a big test coming up with this shutdown. R’s will simply say it’s Dems fault even though they have all the levers of power. Idk what our message is going into that. We cannot agree to any compromise that continues to allow Trump & Musk to subvert our Constitution.

No I think we have a leadership that has bought into the false idea The Resistance didn’t work. It worked great in 18,20,22. What didn’t work was supporting Biden for re-election at the age of 82 with declining communications skills. It put the car in reverse and here we are.

😂 I don’t think Paddington was as difficult on set as Kinski supposedly was!

Den of Thieves 2 had a whole marketing campaign around the "surprise twist" (tbh I wasn't that surprised). They should have done that with this movie - it would have incentivized people to see it in the theaters.The desire to avoid spoilers motivated people to watch Game of Thrones when it aired.

Terrific movie. But spoiling the twist in the marketing campaign really bummed me out. Are marketing campaigns like the ones used by the Sixth Sense or The Usual Suspects or The Crying Game impossible now in the social media age?

I think that would be fairly easy to accomplish. Just keep saying how Trump is Musk’s puppet. How Trump is being controlled by him etc. His ego won’t be able to stand it

Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show is the only possibility

He thinks being all over the pop culture works for him. I think it might wear people out and shake people free of their apathy.

Correct. Trump is actually a sideshow - talking about invading countries and blaming DEI for plane crashes. Musk is actually doing what Republicans always dreamed off - eliminating the government. Traditional Dem attacks work against that. People support Meals on Wheels
