walking through a business district and seeing a giant poster for the divine comedy for some reason
the ffvii compilation is so funny in concept, remember when they said loveless was not just something that was coincidentally on a poster but was actually both a shakespeare play and like a biblically important text
thought i pretty much had a handle on open container laws, don’t have a beer in a car, i get it, makes sense, but i just found out that law doesn’t apply to limos or certain buses???? and now everything is different
christopher mcquarrie when he’s in a having the juice competition and brad bird is his opponent
simon pegg plays halo 5 in this movie
rogue nation started. i love a movie where someone in the government goes “there should not be a secret second CIA that’s even less accountable than the first normal CIA” and the audience is supposed to go “actually there SHOULD be one of those”
how did i fucking know jj was gonna have his own annoying cute visual callback to ethan hanging from the wire with his arms and legs out
okay i guess “keri russel’s in this” was an optimistic statement
also look at that cast. keri russell’s in this? philip seymour hoffman? simon pegg finally?? LAURENCE FISHBURNE?!???
kinda pumped for m:i-3 because i honestly like a lot of jj abrams garbage lol
feels bad not loving this one because some very cool stuff happens in it and the opening convinced me that i was in for a fun flirty low-stakes adventure but man, nothing really captured me here i’m sorry to say
mission impossible 2 is so far mostly a snooze fest occasionally interrupted by most beautiful woman alive thandiwe newton offering a reminder that she is in this film
it’s incredible how frequently an action movie reveals that the villain’s real motive was stock market manipulation, the most boring crime
well now it’s firmly on the list
in fact i have not
i’m looking forward to the sequels but yeah, knowing that they’re all more conventional action flicks is a bit of a bummer given how much i loved the weird spy thriller/heist de palma flair in the first one. although i have heard dead reckoning blends the two tones a bit!
feel a little bad doing this *after* leaving twitter because i’ve got prob ten or twelve oomfs who would go crazy for an excuse to talk about the early mission impossibles
beginning my first watch of the mission impossible series :)
good solid head on your shoulders and you’re using it to remember rotations for three different DPS classes? hey, if it makes you happy
girl like you getting into “video gaming”… just seems a waste, that’s all
every single person i meet on the street every day i’m like “you would be so much better at being in charge than any of the people who are in charge”
i honestly think maybe the best political system would involve picking someone entirely at random every five years or so to be in charge. no way to put your finger on the scale or something, if you are drafted to be president, bad news dude
“kind of a bummer when a great filmmaker is signed to a project that seems like a bad match for their general skill set” —> “why do you wish women were dead”
just not really the chat i was planning on having if i’m being honest
the annoying thing about posting for an inscrutable algorithm is that you never know if your innocuous thought will reach like ten friends who you like talking to and sometimes disagreeing with or seventeen thousand people who each individually want you dead for different reasons
Georges Méliès after meeting the Lumière brothers:
once again thinking about the time george lucas revealed that the “clones” in the clone wars, which had been hinted at for decades, were not clones of any characters we knew or even any characters we would come to know but were instead clones of boba fett’s dad
i encourage and pity you
oooohh is that an rg35xx or a miyoo mini plus?
