Bruce Willis

If you ever get a chance to watch "Moonlighting" I implore you to give it a chance. It is slapstick humor done in night time drama. A dramedy. It doesn't surprise me that the powers that be saw Bruce Willis's charm and thought he could make a movie star...of some kind. He wasn't traditionally handsome, but you felt like he could be the Dad next door. His career was obviously launched by "Die Hard" (1988) which solidified his name into pop culture. He recently announced that he is retiring from acting due to a brain disorder that is causing him too much issues with remembering his lines. A sad reminder that even John McLane will have to hang up his spurs at some point. The thing with acting, as with professional sports seems to be...you leave the business kicking and screaming. Or, in this case, with nature telling you you must stop. Looking back at Bruce Willis's career is pretty amazing. He has done small comedies, big comedies, drama, sex dramas and...well you name it, he did it. Made pretty much more remarkable that he was able to shoehorn himself into any genre. Think about it...in what world could Bruce Willis find Terry Gilliam today? "12 Monkeys" was a project that made people realize he wasn't just a guy who could hold a gun. He endured the silliness of "Color Of Night" And...the guy just reminded America of America. Also, we didn't know his politics. We did know his personal life with Demi. They were the center of attention with their time together. Though I never followed celebrity relationships, it was interesting to see why the media thought we needed to know about him. He didn't seem to be a promoter either. Except when it came to Planet Hollywood. And even then, he was overshadowed by Arnold Schwarzenegger. There have been stories of his behavior. That he could be demanding. Have quirks with the crew. But none of it seemed to be as destructive as his contemporaries. If we're talking action...Jean Claude Van Damme or Steven Seagal. He seemed to just like making movies. Nor was he that much pretentious about this vocation. Stand and say your lines. But he was committed. Regardless of how disastrous the outcome was ("Broadway Brawler" has a history worth investigating). But he was stayed relatively away from the limelight late in his career, only to pop up in odd straight-to-streaming projects that have soiled a bit of his career. I am saddened that I won't get to see another "Die Hard" Not because the franchise went anywhere. But because it reminded me that Bruce was still working. Bruce in movies meant things were good. There won't be another like him. A better looking Humphrey Bogart. I can only thank him for the adventures he's brought.

Learn To Control Yourself, Will Smith

What is surprising is after Will Smith smacked Chris Rock, no one went to Rock's defense. May be a statement on how this sycophantic audience sees freedom of speech: it only exists if they like what you're saying. OR, they're a bunch of pussies. In fact, they gave Smith a standing ovation having finally won his first Oscar. Since Smith is a bankable star and Rock is...well, kinda been missing, the powers that be of the Hollywood execs have kept quiet. I think slapping someone for telling a joke sets a really bad precedent. And Smith should be getting off so easily. Clearly the rules have now been adjusted because of the situation. In this case, to also protect his wife Jada. For some reason, this makes it okay with the social elitist. Much like the workers at the Academy wearing a mask whilst the elitist tells jokes and smack each other. We are truly living in a time of nonsense. We should also address Smith's inability to control his physical anger. The entire Hollywood community should condemn this man. But they're cowards and we know it. To them, the attack was justified. Which is a sickening take. Eventually, a person they care about will be assaulted. Now, to be fair, this is between these two guys. They will need to patch things up and clear the air together. Smith can't just tweet something and everything is fine. In a civilized society, he needs to make amends in which Rock is satisfied. But again, rich people with rich people problems. This incident may culminate in Smith's career. With all that has gone with his history, it's shitty to think, he will only be remembered as the Slap Guy. I happen to like both of these guys. Though I've never dealt with them personally, they seem to love entertaining people. And to bring some joy into people's lives is to be commended. To influence people into physical violence when you don't like what someone said...well, that's social media shit.

Oscar Fight!

I didn't watch any of this nonsense. BUT, I did see the unedited clip of Will Smith cheap shotting comedian Chris Rock. I'm sure there were a lot of people who wanted to do this to a comedian. But it is more baffling how Smith isn't in jail. Black privilege, I suppose. Anyone in Hollywood are cowards. No one came to the defense of Rock. Only Will Smith, because he made a joke about, wife Jada Smith's bald ass head. Because she suffers from...alopecia. Um...it's not a life threatening thing. I would understand it more if she was dying and this was a Make-A-Wish moment. Disgusting. So Hollywood just showed what it really was... the class clown got slapped by the popular kid over a slight on the guy's girlfriend. And all of the tux crowd did nothing. In fact, they rewarded him for acting. It's laughable when it's said out loud. And if Hollywood cared what impression it makes on society, it certainly didn't care. The bubble of celebrity is real. In other words, it doesn't care. And you shouldn't care about them. They're loathsome animals. Which reminds me, for an organization that depends on representing African Americans in media, it is a bad look to have two get into a physical altercation in the world. A mass population outside of America will say to themselves "This is how those animals act. N-words gonna n-word" You know what actually promoted this? Will Smith's kid. Who tweeted that "that's how we do it" Uh-huh. I thought we live in a civilized society. But when you let these things happen, it should make you question how true biology plays a part in this behavior. If you truly cared about science. Which you Leftist don't. Pathetic.

You Don't Know What A Woman Is?

Even the dumbest child on Earth can define it. Women have a vagina and boobs and can give birth to children. Duh. The newest nominee, Biden calls "a black woman" was asked if she could define a woman. The idiot's answer...she cannot. He's a moron to the biggest degree possible. But it isn't without reason. The reason being, she doesn't want to answer what is obvious. Something tells me this token nominee exists throughout life with things given to her. Due to being an angry Black woman. Such is the bullshit of the Left. Here's the thing, why not just nominate her without the stupidity of declaring it. If this nominee had any dignity, she would've declined with a simple sentence..."I'm not for this administration to be used as a pawn" BUT, she'd never do that. She has no dignity or shame. She is a leftist. Moron didn't answer the question. I call her a moron, NOT because she's dumb, but because once the Left get done using her, they will discard her. The Left's agenda is crystal clear. Out of everyone they could've nominated, they found someone so embedded in radical Leftist ideology she can't get her head out of her ass to answer a simple fucking question. Don't get me started on her record of releasing pedophiles. She has no clue these animals cannot be fixed. There's a reason why they're busted up in prison. Prisons are full of inmates who were sexually abused as children. Duh. Fuck you, lady.

Fixing The Oscars

The Lefties of this town are wondering if the Oscars are dead. Yep. But like ghoulish zombies the people at the perimeter of this town function as there is a solution to repair. Just make the show full of comedy. Stop talking politics and make fun of the movies themselves. Simple. Billy Crystal did it. With great effect. A very nice nudge that we shouldn't take this shit seriously. Get rid of movies that have a social message. We use to be taught that universal message was the universal link between us. Somewhere along the line someone thought it was a good idea to infuse movies with overt messaging. This is bad. Because most of American don't agree with Hollywood bubbles. This industry is clueless to the values of America. The rest know and attempt to change that system. The American people inherently know what value systems work. And typically it isn't stupid shit like homosexuality, drug addicted losers, or glorifying criminality like Black Lives Matter. It's things like friendship, kindness and it's okay to be lonely. Most movies need to celebrate core values more. Family units and such. You don't have to shove down our throats interracial marriages anymore. No one cares. It doesn't have to be the main focus of every film. Go back to the movie star system. We don't have this anymore and it's such a shame. Movie stars were untouchable Gods on Earth. This lost a lot of gas in the 70's when you saw actors act like...well, humans. Jack Nicholson comes to mind. He was too real and relatable. Therefore, he was us...in real life. While it's true we're curious what celebrities do when they're not in movies, we really forgot that movie stars are also heroes. Which is my other point...make them Gods. It is now fashionable to make stars seem more like regular people. So much so, in this town, that when one runs into Brad Pitt, you go up to him and talk to him like he was a normal dude. While he is a normal dude, there is no glamour in discussing smoothie recipes. You think Cary Grant did that? Let the legend grow with word of mouth. Celebs need to stay off social media. They're idiotic brains think Americans care. You are actually working backwards, because anything a celeb says is precisely the opposite of what America wants. I know a lot of them are full of shit phonies. They're conservative but have to pretend they're not. How sad. Make movies about America. Enough of these foreign fucks getting into American films. Jane Campion, as Sam Elliot says, has no fucking clue about the American west. It's not a catastrophic idea for her to do a western, only that to celebrate it gives creedence to foreign person interpreting what is our American history. IF you believe one a Black person can direct a "black experience" movie, the same could be said about the west. And no shit ass flicks like "Parasite" That's a straight up Korean film no one in Middle America cares about. For the love of God dump the song and dance numbers. Who fucking cares about Manuel Lin whatever his fucking name is. It's corny and gay. Make the ceremony 2 hours max. Easily done by dumping prancing. Actually remember that you make movies for middle America. This town has a horrific sense of self-importance. Most of Middle America doesn't give a flying shit about homosexuals or plight of the colored man. It's overdone and if people want to see it, they can seek it out. That is a tiny percentage of interest compared to stories about families. Nuclear families. Most people are Mom (female) Dad (male) and kids (whatever). They don't fucking care about transgender garbage. They don't. Repeat until it gets through your thick skulls. Get out of your comfort zone and go talk to Americans. Real Americans. They're fascinating people with fascinating stories. Specifically the older ones who lived through some real shit. Because of the virtual world, the human experience is at the precipice of extinction. Go out. Get out. And tell tales that may help a broader audience. Stop fucking preaching.

Oscars

Hollywood Boulevard is shut down/slowed down to set up for...the Oscars. The movie award show that is slowly dying like a speared elephant. And it is gruesome. Pageantry and glamor is dead. Mostly because Hollywood got overtaken by my generation. And my generation are full of fuckwads who want to be cool to everyone. They want to be liked. Conversely, they want to be left alone. That is why this country is so confused. But, also that no one watches Oscar movies. We know "The Power Of The Dog" is going to win Best Picture because it has everything Oscar likes. Gay cowboys. Or something. I haven't watched it, so I can't say. Nothing wrong with gay cowboys but it's not what America works hard to watch when the day is over. The nominees for Best Picture...most Americans haven't watched. This is the bubble we live in. America knows Hollywood is quite silly for this back pat bullshit. Because movies are no longer relevant. We know it...they know it. And the Lefties killed it. Because Americans don't like to be preached to. Unless it's about God. I guess. The problem really lies in 5-7 generation White Lefties. They're so privileged they have to find problems. And they are made to feel guilty because they want to be popular. So, in this sense, especially out here in Hollywood, they fall into lock step. And most are too afraid to come out to tell you they don't give a flying fuck about social issues. That's why I spit on the Left. Because they are phonies. See, when shit starts to effect a privileged White Lefty, they are the first to dump and run. Their convictions are tossed to the trashbin and they refuse to do without comforts. I don't ever pretend to be anything than who I am. The White Lefty loves to pretend they are morally upstanding. In reality, they are debased losers. The coporations caught on to how easy it is to manipulate. And the result is an award show full of people full of themselves. The longer Hollywood hangs onto their lack of a value system the further the drop. But pride and ego and the lack of self awareness and contextual clues lead to this bubble they thrive in. It's pretty much all Lefties. They are the privileged class. The rest of us are unwashed peasants. Hillary Clinton was very clear to call us that. She hates Americans because we think she's trash. Cackles at the death of patriotism. Much like Kamala Harris. Wouldn't it be funny if we discover Kamala's real name is Becky Summers?

The Word "Retarded"

In this day and age, only a retard would think the word "retarded" pertains to them. Pretty arrogant, if you ask me. Most people are retarded. Especially Lefties. They're especially slow on the uptake when it comes to the retards they support. Oh wait, they don't support other Lefties they just hate Righties. Dumb fucks. Any way, people have been retard shaming the word "retarded" To point out to someone that the use is hurtful is shaming. See the retarded rabbit hole we go down? Yeah, I know you are doing this to spare feelings. And frankly I don't use the term "retard" unless the person does something really retarded. It isn't a term meaning a retarded person because that was a word you've labeled certain people and now tell us we can't use. If anything, you're the ones who have an issue. It's also not because the word is offensive. I've been called "retarded" a few times and I just laugh. Yeah, I know, it's because deep down inside I know I'm not retarded. But most retards don't know they are. I think more progressives don't want anyone to use the word, because they know they're retarded. So, there's that. This blog is retarded.

Hunter Biden is A Crackhead

Turns out Hunter Biden's laptop is real. Always has been. Everyone with a brain reported it. Which is why mainstream legacy fucking media pretended like it was false and banned it from social media. You should be able to sue these assholes for suppressing facts and truth. But you should really ask why they hid this information. A few things, most likely. They wanted Joe Biden to win the election. Because if Trump won, media is fucked. Especially internet media. It was to their benefit to side with a guy who is so fucking retarded and can't take care of his own house, he has a dirtbag crackhead for a son. Hope the degenerate overdoses. Save the country some shame. But Joey lacks that. In fact, he relishes in a dead son. Trots out his soldider won who died of brain cancer when you wants sympathy. A drug overdosed kid would be like honey to this brain dead puke. Biden sucks. The whole family sucks. He lived off federal money forever and still fleeces America for more. This stupid puke fuck doesn't understand when he dies, his legacy is causing two countries to collapse and a crackhead for a son. By the way, idiot Lefties who are reading this, how is it you can't admit you made a mistake. Because you hated a man's personality over policy the result are tens of thousands of lives lost. And how are you to trust media. Ever. Your news source like garbage CNN got it wrong. Or lied to you. Because they think you're a moron. The minute I stopped trusting those assholes the better I was for it. Here's a trick, whatever the news tells you...question them, then use common sense. Anyone who uses lefty media as a source to argue, is a colossal idiot. Move away from them. Any way, Lefty, suck it. Also, we obviously know more than you, so listen to what we have to say. Duh.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Saint Patrick's Day was a big thing in Cincinnati. Even though it was a German town. It had massive parade to celebrate the occasion. I think it was another reason to be drunk. Cincy has a way of finding ways to stay drunk. I have Irish family members. My niece is half-Irish so naturally she's going to be fiery and obnoxious as she gets older. I think so is my nephew. Who is really subdued. You almost have to hit him with a tazer to see if he responds. Or he's just too cool for school. Which I felt I was (I wasn't). The celebration seems to have dwindled. Or perhaps it's because I'm in queer nation Los Angeles. You would think this shit-ass town would embrace a reason to get fucked up. So here's the thing...if you want the fruits out here to get behind it again (pun intended) make it St. Gay Patty's Day. No one...and I mean NO ONE loves a parade more than the gays. Also they drink a lot. Win...win! Gay Patty's Day would consist of stuffing a potato up your ass and the Corned Beef Hole Sac Race. That would mean you suck corned beef out of a hole and try to sprint 40 yards. Unfortunately, the Catholics probably would be up in arms about this. Since they don't recognize homosexuality. Although most priests molest young boys. You see the conflict here. Anyways, hope you "get your Irish on." A hilarious euphemism for face-down-ass-up drunkeness.

Why Women Aren't Great Film Directors

A friend posted that over a century of films and only one woman has won an Oscar for directing. An Asian woman no less. This is what we call...a token award. I doubt "Nomadland" was worthy of the acclaim. But, we've diminished the award so much, you may as well give it out to the queerest, blackest he-she who never even made a movie and call it a day. Making a movie is tough. And it requires toughness to make it. These days, a little less tough. The reason why you don't see many female directors isn't because it's a male dominated profession. Consider that filmmaking BEGAN with women. Men only made it better. Misogyny! You claim? Possibly. But in the century of movies being made in Hollywood, we tend not to count the closeted gays. Which are women. But that's not good enough. A few things happened that sort of sidetracked the womans' claim on cinema. It Became A Business Not to say women are bad at business. You look at the successful ones in the industry, you will see they are ruthless when it comes to money. Men are willing to go down this road because they can separate emotion from money. I, personally, cannot. That's not to say I'm a pussy about money. I just can't stand seeing artistic endeavors boiled down to financial concerns. That's my flaw. But, women universally are emotionally attached to their craft. They should be. They see films as an extension of themselves. Men tend to see it as an occupation. This is slowly changing, and therefore will get more female directors forcing themselves into the director's chair. Women Lose Their Inner Child Quickly You ever notice how unfunny women are? Look, there are a TON of unfunny men who think they're funny. Mostly Dads. But women lose this REALLY fast. I think they equate being silly with being immature (truth). The difference is men don't care if they're seen as such, whilst women tend to believe they're taken more seriously because of it. The saying goes "be serious about your art, not of the process" In other words, your inner child can be playful and silly. When it comes to the project at hand, take it with seriousness it deserves. It's hard to differentiate. But think about this...is there a Steven Spielberg equivalent in a female form? Nope. Spielberg's inner child is at the surface. And therefore taps into that. For women, they think it's too beneath them. Or that they can't act this way to be taken seriously. So then you hear how there aren't any female Spielbergs. It's tricky, but you really do need some woman who has this. Women Aren't Visual I know, this myth has been de-bunked. They find beauty in anything. Kinda true. They find beauty in beauty. If it's pur-dy, they like it. Men find beauty in ugliness. Ugliness is life. For a woman, they tend to want to make life as it should be. Men hold a mirror to ugliness. In general. Obviously some of you may be screaming that this is wrong. Nope. It is life. The difference between our worldview is idealized well with a woman. This is not a BAD thing. It's actually good. But sometimes the harsh reality of life isn't portrayed properly through the eyes of an idealist (I tend not to like to focus on that either). By "idealist" I mean, you can't make a woman fat, old and ugly in a movie because you care about their feelings. Paradoxically, it also then becomes creating an idealized film person that is criticized for not being fat, old or ugly. Jane Campion's "The Power Of The Dog" has beautiful people in harsh frontier world. How dumb is that? Women Cry Easily Women hate to be hated. When you have that much suppressed disappoint and anger. And, if it's not "lady like" to throw tantrums, their behavior comes out in weird ways. So, they rarely make films that antagonize. They don't want to upset people who then upset them. Women who cry are in a sheltered bubble. I know plenty who cry when confronted. It's a bad look. Most male directors tend to stiffen up and get angry. Women cry. Men get defensive. Women cry. Women Can't Make Decisions Where do you want to eat? If this is the basis of 90% of arguments started in your relationship with a woman, you know. Directing is making decisions. The simplest ones tend to make women fold. Or they are so scatterbrained, they forget the decisions they made. Or second guess it from day to day. I'm not sure how this is trained out of people, but for men...look I know a guy who makes feature films that makes the dumbest stupidest decisions ever. He stands by them. Because his head is made of granite. Women tend to be their worst enemies when it comes to decision making. They sabotage their own sensibility distracted by a possible better idea. Men tend to be more caveman about it. Ug made a choice, he's going to do it no matter what. A crewmember can EASILY undermine a female director and then it goes off the rails. It's not a bad thing, it actually means women listen more. That said, there are a ton of women directors I respect. A lot! In fact, I wish they would make more movies that didn't have to deal with women problems. Kathryn Bigelow is a fucking badass. You want to know directing, she should've won the Oscar for "The Hurt Locker" She made a movie that told a solid story. End of rant. She made a killer vampire movie. And a techno-punk film. Her voice is heard where most are ignored. In the end, making a movie is pretty grueling event. And it seems a lot of women aren't willing to suffer what needs to be suffered. The industry is tough simply because a woman also needs to be attractive. Patty Jenkins knows this. She's hot. This is a hot person's business. Sucks to acknowledge that as you get older. And women hate getting older.

Stephen Colbert Is A Dumb Fucking Idiot

Lefty unfunny idiot Stephen Colbert doesn't care if he pays $15/gallon for gasoline. Because he drives an electric car. Talk about braindead elitist. Rich celebrities are fucking stupid. Here's the proof. Most of Americans cannot afford or do not want electric cars despite what transportation nitwit Pete Buttiegeig is cramming down your throat. We all know what's crammed down his throat. Petey went on paternity leave for months and no one cared or knew. This, folks, are the social elitist who sit on crystal toilets and say you are the great dumb unwashed. You know what we did to people like this? Be-headed them, like Marie Antoinette. Rich elitist have no clue about the American people. Oh wait...no...they don't care. That's different. Listen to the way they talk. Smug intelligencia who look down on you. How do you NOT want to smack the smirk off their glib faces. This is what happens when "the nerds" take over. Their arrogant nerdness rises to the top. They were bullied and beaten and now it's time to take revenge. Unfortunately, in this case, America suffers for it.

Jussie Smollett To Prison

I mean 150 days in the hooscow is nothing compared to this dude attempting to cause a race war And he's (predictably) unapologetic. This is the result of a lifetime of entitlement. A guy who had a future that any actor, I know, would love to have. Instead, he decides to throw it down a trash heap to gain some notoriety for being a victim. And he's unapologetic. He isn't the problem. The problem are the dumbfucks in Hollywood who refuse to admonish his behavior. Have we heard from the entertainment peanut gallery to shit on this shithead? Nope. People like Kamala Harris. Yes, she is purposefully linked to entertainment because she is retarded. And good for a laugh. Nope. No accountability. So you'll get more stupid fucks like Jussie. Trying to pretend there is systemic Trump racists. These assholes here in Hollywood most likely think him a hero. Well, your hero is in a mental ward now. Also, Hillary Clinton will probably pay him a visit. In Jussie's own words...he didn't kill himself.

If You Voted For Biden You Are Responsible For Ukranian Deaths

Biden sucks He's weak and everyone knows it. Putin isn't nuts. He knows Biden is spineless. As is his gay administration. This admins need to be woke caused all the chaos in the world. Never happened under Trump. Know this person who keeps posting about her friends in Ukraine and is suffering under this invasion. Dumb bitch voted for Biden. Has no awareness that her vote caused her friend to suffer. Lefties are so clueless

Don't Say Gay

Celebrities have come out to express outrage over a bill that would not allow teachers to indoctrinate children into gay culture. And now they call it the "Don't Say 'Gay'" Bill" Honestly, you people are fucking stupid. School is for three things...reading, writing and arithmetic. The rest doesn't need a fucking teacher. So fuck off. Fucking hate actors who have no clue what America wants. Here's why these fucking socialist assholes get away with...knowing America is free speech...use free speech to suppress your opinion. PARENTS DO NO FUCKING CARE ABOUT YOUR HOMO LIFESTYLE Get it through your fucking privileged heads.

Gas Prices Suck

That dumb fucking homo from Indiana Pete Buttigeig who was so fucking useless there, idiot Biden hired him to be transportation guy. Naturally. The Democrat playbook is to fail sideways or upwards. Annnnd per typical government dumbassery, this dude took two months off for paternity leave to indoctrinate his newborn that being gay is okay. And then no one notice he wasn't there. While things were going to shit. See, Democrats want us all to go green. Meaning this fucking fruit assholes wants us to buy electric cars. You want to know how out of touch Lefties are, just look at this fuck. A typical electrical car costs over $40,0000. The fuck is this asshole thinking. So to drive the point that rich elitist don't give a fuck about you, fuckface Stephen Colbert said in his monologue, he doesn't care if gas is $15/gallon he drives a Tesla. Two of the most punchable fucks on this planet. Meanwhile, idiot Biden is looking for alternative sources for fuel. namely Venezuela...who treat their people like shit. And Iran, who hate our guts. Good going dummies. This is, by far, the most incompetent administration ever to be in the White House. I hope someone kicks Biden in his fucking small nuts HARD. Fucking clueless mook. And this incompetence is only fueled by a media that is willing to cover for them. This should infuriate you...they think you are so fucking stupid you won't believe your own eyes. Seriously.

"The Batman" poster

The new Batman flick starring Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz is a mopey slog. It's done well, but still...mopey. It takes me back to the 90's grunge era where everyone was emo'd out. I've no room to talk, because I was so maudlin. Seems being grim douche back then was the in thing. Everyone dressed in black and it rained all the time. Look at "The Crow" or "Se7en" for reference. There is obviously a massive influence to director Matt Reeves over this. The movie is okay. Slow burning and boring sometimes, it's essentially a police procedural by way of a guy in a costume. It won't play well with children under 11. May not even play well to the ones under 18 since this fucking comic book society has made it where bright circus colors with flashing lights makes for a movie. Bah! I says. The thing that bothers me about this movie is the attempt to shoehorn Catwoman into this adventure. In particular the poster. Around Los Angeles, the poster shows Batman and Catwoman. As if they have equal efforts in saving the city. No spoiler here, but Catwoman isn't a hero. She is a self-interested bad person whose only allegiance is to get what she wants (in this case save a friend/girlfriend/lover/who fucking knows). She doesn't give a shit about Gotham. Meanwhile, there she is on the poster. This is woke ass bullshit designed to do whatever it takes to have a woman...of color (in this instance) to have equal footing. Now if you watched the movie, you will get a sense that she has a lot to do. Honestly, take her out of it, it is still a movie. Her backstory was crammed in as horrifically as the history of the Waynes' and Arkhams' Perhaps I missed something in the actual comic books. Putting her on the poster signifies she has a big part in the flick which is misleading. Also the movie is called "The Batman" So fuck off Catwoman. Incidentally, Zoe Kravitz has no clue what sensuality means. She google eyes Batman with the same dead eyes as Mama Lisa Bonet. She should've studied Mama in "Angel Heart" Got-damn she is smoking hot in that. Instead, Zoe seems like she's in some costume party for bondage and is brand new to the scene. She doesn't appear to be street wise in the least. I am glad Warner Bros. is attempting something a LITTLE different. Making Batman a detective, for once. If you look back at the Joel Schumacher years, you think this The Batman lives nowhere near that circus. By the way. Not sure why anyone liked Tim Burton's '89 "Batman" It's shot really poorly. It doesn't have the grim-ness of this one. Considering Gotham is a Hell-hole. Perhaps if you took the dimness of this flick and put it in '89 Batman you'd have the perfect picture. I always thought Kim Basinger was too horrid to be Vicky Vale. Original Sean Young would've added a lot more maturity. No offense to Kim, but she is limited in roles she should be taken. OR!...she needs to accept herself as she is. I recall her playing a mother in a movie and it seemed like it pained her to be matronly. She looked like an Encino MILF, botox'd to all Hell.

Ukranian Brides

Not to get all weird with this war fraud prez Joe Biden could've prevented, but I suspect there is going to be an incredible influx of Ukranian women looking for men. Most likely American men, because we have freedom. And money. And after they use you up, they've no regard to dump your ugly ass. I laugh about this, though it's most likely serious. I can't imagine American men marching in with a Ukranian woman now and the government agent not laughing their asses off. American Dude: We're here to get married Immigration Agent: Bro, she's way too hot for you American Dude: Yeah, but past 30 years old, she'll look like a babushka. Immigration Agent: Fair enough. STAMP: Approved! We make jokes about Russian mail order brides. Russian women are sturdy people. They can take a pounding. Not abuse, but what they've come from and what they get in free America is life changing. Getting to America is a lottery ticket for sure. If not to stay out of the cold. I dunno. I often wonder who leaves this arrangement first. I mean, Ukranian bride must feel some gratitude you rescued them suffering. Conversely, in some cases, they pay people to marry them to stay in this country. In that case, run when you want. I know a few arrangements like these. Where people have married to keep a foreigner in America. I'm curious by this, but not at all that outraged by it. Look, if you can pay someone money to marry you to stay in the country, you have resources. However, for those who are looking out to take advantage of beautiful women who've lost their country to war...man...Hell has a warm spot for you.

National Women's Month

Well, it's that time of the month again... Women's Month. Not sure what we do here except to remind others how women contributed to society. You know, because recognition of women doing things for the country men also do isn't equality at all. I've said it from day one, in order for equality...you don't need to be recognized for shit you should already be doing. Once we start to celebrate individual accomplishments REGARDLESS of sex, religion, color...then we are equal. I have me a dream! So women...what have you done for society? A ton. But mostly for yourselves. Or, because it's a choice. For instance, gratitude for having kids ISN'T for society to cherish. Your kids are probably shitbags. Especially my generations' Mothers. Gen-X Moms are THE most care-less people on the planet. Their kids do what they want based on their whims. I recall my Mom, upon hearing my flight of fancy, shrugging that shit off. In other words, you want to do that shit, you go out and earn it. Gen-X Moms get involved. Not only get involved, REALLY make their kids suffer in their involvement. Perhaps this is the deterrent. Okay, so women...as I've also said in the past, once you start getting kicked in your crotch (referred to as 'the cunt punt') in movies and the audience laughs...we will have equality. Until then, I'm staying clear of most women in L.A. They tend to like to nag about stuff. Having an entire month to nag is like a license to murder.

What Is Directing?

This morning I thought about all my favorite directors. Billy Wilder, Hal Ashby, Sidney Lumet... And I got to thinking what a director really is. In the old days, a director was the sole voice to the tonal quality of the final picture. Well, in the old OLD days it was actually the producer who shaped it. But somewhere around the 60's and 70's the voice was decidedly on the directors. Their sensibility really permeated throughout the movie. Moreso than the 40's and 50's where for the most part, the studios had a big say. These days directors are useless. They point a camera and try not to cast a shadow on the greenscreen. It is true, there are a handful that still have a bit of autonomy. Martin Scorsese, Coppola, Christopher Nolan or David Fincher are cinema bullies who force their vision onto the screen. In Francis Coppola's case, he is even putting his own money to make his next flick. The director on any film use to have a great deal more respect than before. In some cases, actors dropped everything and took pay cuts so they could work with them. But has anyone ever wondered what that meant? Does is mean an actor just wants to see what knowledge a director has in regards to how they can harness a performance? That they want to adjust their own skills in acting based on experience any of these guys have? I would love to be on a Hal Ashby set to see what direction he gave his actors. For the most part, the script is king. A bad director would have to try hard to fuck up a really great script. A bad script could make a good director look bad. Today, a script translated by a director doesn't really matter. Because everything is done from committee. Particularly the movies that make money. And that is the bottom line. There isn't any studio that would trust Hal Ashby or Sidney Lumet. Unless, perhaps, if the production company was owned by an actor. And they would hire these brilliant storytellers. That's all a director really is. A person who maximizes a story for full effect. It got me thinking how they decide who is "the best director." A dubious distinction I take very little stock in when people are being thrown through drywall.

Oscar So White 2022

Well, Academy ditched their bullshit fast. Whatever happened to not being nominated unless you have the top talent in your film being a person of color? Turns out you can't regulate that. Turns out the Oscars are full of shit as always. Honestly, I don't care who you represent. It was the arbitrary rules they injected into the ceremony that was pissing everyone off anyway. Same thing as when Idiot Biden says he's going to nominate a Black woman into the Supreme Court. I mean, did he have to say it? Do any of these fucking morons know they can still do it and not have to announce it? Nope. Because, let's face it, it's all for this bubble to feel great about themselvse. Meanwhile, back to casting only lily White folk. This is why I hate the Lefties. They're garbage bullshitters who think you're an idiot. Don't fall for it.

Samuel Jackson And The N-Word

Podcaster Joe Rogan read some lyrics to a song or directly quoted someone else using the n-word and then had to apologize for this. Because he used someone else's quote. Meanwhile, Sam Jackson doesn't take his reasoning of using the n-word as anything but Rogan enjoying saying the word. Versus...say...Quentin Tarantino. Okay, I'll out the fucker. I was at the New Beverly to see "Convoy" and Tarantino happened to be there as well (he owns the theater). I was there with my friend, and in the movie a character uses the n-word. And I've never seen anyone laugh as loud as Tarantino did. I mean the bellowing laugh from his sweat soaked face went for a minute before he calmed down. It's not to say Tarantino is a racist. Perhaps it's his own uncomfortableness. But, I wonder what Jackson would think to know about this. Think he would defend his pal? That's all it is. Friends sticking with friends. Joe Rogan isn't friends with Jackson. Nor is he on his payroll. Therefore, all is well. The thing is...okay...here's the thing...what if we change the n-word to "Jackson"? "Hey Jackson, my Jackson over here is a crazy ass Jackson" Do you feel the context of the word changes or are we still thinking it's racist and aggressive? Probably so. I don't think anyone should use the n-word. Ever. Song lyric, speaking to one another and so forth. Richard Pryor said it best when he thought the word is typically use to describe the misery of a community. He wanted to change the mindset by not alluding to any part of this America where the word flew around from ignorance. Also for Black folk to call each other that seems to go against the intention of NOT allowing it to be a hurtful word. Sam is right when it comes to the casualness of which the word is thrown around. It becomes so integrated into the mouths of the youth. I don't think Rogan is that impressionable to people under 20 years old. Rappers are. Go after them. That's mah Jackson.

The Ides Of March

Does anyone watch the Academy Awards anymore? I think the older I get the less I care. Only because I don't think there is such a thing as "BEST" anything. Movies are subjective and therefore, what's best to you isn't best to someone else. There are really well made movies. For the most part, awards are now given to the most socially conscious. Which is why America doesn't give a fuck anymore. "Don't Look Up!" was nominated this year for Best Picture. I can think of many other movies that could've used that slot, in order for it to get some notoriety so people will watch. A movie that has Leo DiCaprio and Jen Lawrence is going to get their viewership. I would hope the powers that be would want to spotlight smaller movies that actually deal with human condition. My friend's film "Blue Bayou" got a lot of early heat, then disappeared. And my favorite of last year was "Red Rocket" which is pretty damn funny flick. The type of offbeat funny that should've gotten more attention. America caught on to Hollywood's agenda years ago. It just keeps getting more and more woke. So now they've taken to even not air certain awards and their speeches. They shaved film editing, costume and sound design. And the guilds and unions are up in arms. They still have those awards, only that they won't air them for some reason. I would say cut the fucking stupid ass musical numbers. That shit is annoying. Stops the show cold for songs that are truncated anyway. Perhaps this is to rake in...music people? Tell that to the Grammys. Which no one watches. I would also get rid of the short films thing. Animation or live action. Yeah, cool for those categories but no one fucking cares. I've expressed this in the past, but I would just give out one award. Writing. Just writing. NOTHING gets done without a story. Acting is translating words. Directing is translating words. And all those other awards are to support...the words. And yet writers are shat on, all...the...time. Problem is, writers are as glamorous as wallpaper. Most are ugly and no one wants that. I drove by Hollywood Boulevard today and saw some hullabaloo around the streets. Suppose they are gearing up for the Oscars. The only I could say that's great about it is, that it gets famous people to congregate all in one area. I mean, they schedule their lives to attend. It's just a damn party. Which we use to have but don't do anymore. It use to be so lively. I don't think Oscars mean as much as they use to. To some stars of the past, like George C. Scott, they never did matter. The anticipation and build up meant more than the award itself. To most Americans watching rich famous people espouse their political views is a boner killer. As is Meryl Streep.
