@timgrierson.bsky.social getting dragged to Tron Ares tonight. Read your Screen International review. By G&L standards was that a C+?

Mostly 2. I watched it for the first time a year ago with my son and couldn't believe how bad the acting was. I get that some if it is broad on purpose, but wow. I do not get the love.

MAGA seems determined to drive this country into irrelevancy.
