DSP The RUBE Movies/TV Thread

was wondering about that
i’ll have to check it out

 

huh? made it to kentucky already?

 

Yeah, that's a pretty good trilogy (haven't seen Eq3 yet). Good that there's new DeNiros, because I won't watch anything more from that over-the-line woke fuck anymore. My wife was trying to get me to see Killers of the Flower Moon, which I intended to until I noticed that he's in it. So I got the book instead.

 

Just to add some context to my last post, it's not so much that I disagree with the stances that he takes, which I do. It's not even that I dislike when people try to use their celebrity status to influence my thinking, which I hate vehemently. It's mostly because when I go to watch a movie, I need to be able to fully buy into the notion that for those 2-3 hours, the actor is the character in the role that he's playing. For me, the best movies are actually ones where the main actors are anonymous to me. Of course there's loss of anonymity as they become more successful, but I can for the most part buy into Hanks' and Denzel's characters, for example, because they've relatively stayed out of controversial situations when not playing a role. But then you have someone like Tom Cruise, where I can't watch any of his characters without thinking of him jumping on Oprah's couch or taking on Brooke Shields or other stuff. Or Alec Baldwin without thinking of him being an asshole to the flight attendant or Russell Crowe in that hotel lobby, and so on. With these actors who've undermined their ability to get me to believe that they're the character on the screen, it's not even worth my time and money watching. And DeNiro is probably the biggest culprit of that.

 

easy fix

i only enjoy the ones they die in
