That was the actual point of the movie. Who benefits when we are convinced to be at each other's throats over stupid shite.

Never heard of someone being discharged for being combative.... ?


He wasn't. He got combative about being discharged. He felt very strongly that he should not be discharged from the hospital. The doctors disagreed, so he started cursing people out and threatening. Hospital called cops. He got arrested.

He was stabbed on the 2nd, arrested on the 3rd, and died on the 14th

I'm sure there will be some KB self-flagellation about how the Indians


God forbid a 12-hour documentary cover anything beyond what everybody else has already covered a million times. I like my docs too confirm what I already know, and that's it, gosh darnit. If I haven't learned it yet, it's obviously not worth learning.

Chewing gum as an adult is very unprofessional. Could you imagine going to a board meeting with gum in your mouth?


Super valid question, given all adults are member of corporate boards, and all waking hours of all adults are spent in board meetings.

After so many years of pure shite being released in theaters, can't we all agree that a movie like this is a welcome return to movie fun?


B-level genre flicks anchored by a faded star, that get dumped into a limited theatrical release day-and-date with the vod release, are a dime a dozen.

If this ends up good, cool. But this looks in step with much of the junk constantly rotating through theaters.

This movie is adapted from Save the Green Planet, a Korean black comedy from the mid-00s. It probably has a similar ending.

In the real world, Sweetooth would have been dead any of the times he was shot, stabbed, or blown up. Or the first time he lit his frickin head on fire. This show doesn't have much connection to the real world.

Really liked the main dude's performance

The people citing his Civil War and Baseball series as evidence of his non-bias are being purposely disingenuous


Every filmmaker, artist, journalist, person is biased. It's probably more disingenuous to think of Burns as some far left documentarian just because he made a doc on the nazi sympathizer movement in America during WWII. You know this is what you're doing, even though you probably learned about American nazi sympathizers in high school, like everyone else did.

I DO hate Disney, but you didn't read what I said, did you?


And my point is that Doctor Who's fate hasn't been sealed, since it will be back in 2026, sans Disney.

You won't like it, regardless of whatever quality of is. Anyone who liked the original Davies run should have enjoyed the past 2 seasons, because the style and tone was radically similar, with totally crummy episodes mixed in with good ones. I'm mixed on Davies' original run, and I was mixed on the first 2 seasons of this one.

And Davies' writing and show running on Doctor Who this round has been as optimistic and positive as it was in the mid-2000s. If you're referring to him as angry and bitter because of interviews in which he tells online politards to shut up, that's not a good example of angry and bitter
Disney getting out of the partnership is Doom? You hate Disney.
