Hypocrites
anything external that those whose job is to place the chips on the table can use to excuse failure
why not just accept that youâll inevitably resign in disgrace in five years and greenlight interesting products on the way out? these days you donât get that high while retaining that perspective
the action in QoS is bad
everything else is the best of the Craig movies
the following two are like one long arc of apology for it; handsome stately garbage
skyfall is very handsome though!
It was pretty but felt incredibly hollow to me. Left basically no impression at all.
you didnât enjoy the moore-esque macau scene, bardem monologuing in a featureless concrete building and albert finney as scatman crothers?
Hahahahahaha
btw is cary fukunaga the first american to direct a bond movie?
yeah he is I think
im proud of him. its about time they let americans direct some action movies
At SaltCon Iâll explain why the poker scene is trash garbage and will ruin the movie.
I mean it is that he has an incredible hand that Mads only had a more incredible hand and that Bond got shit for being a hothead and going all in is crap. It was a statistically really good move to go in when you have a pair of queens.
every time bond got shit in that movie for being a hothead it was crap. my brain would always shut off during TIME TO SCOLD BOND scenes so i donât even remember ppl getting angry with him for losing the hand besides his date. who, as a woman, is there to look good and get pissy about everything
theres not much to ruin

This is a real podcast and I listened to it and it was good.
blackhat is the best mann
Blackhat was fun because I got to go see it with a couple of security guys I used to work with, because they thought everything in it would be wrong in the way most hacking movies are, and there was only one (incredibly minor) detail that was wrong (a USB drive that was clearly not the thing they said it was, but even the security nerds who are usually pedantic as hell about that stuff were like ânah, that doesnât even matterâ).
Also the movie was some real good shit that I got paid to watch, so fuck yeah.
my mann rankings (so far):
blackhat
collateral
miami vice
heat
manhunter
thief
public enemies
i need to see ali soon
Embarrassed to say Iâve never seen a Michael Mann movie. Always thought they looked like macho bullshit, but itâs looking like I need to get over myself and watch one. Been meaning to see Manhunter.
