Have you watched this show? @Lilja K

💯 saying this for quite a time now.

I think I like it so far

I'm still on my Star Wars in "chronological order" watch mission (but I already cheated 😄) However I like this one A LOT.... (it was just fun and damn Alden Ehrenreich is handsome 😍 overall great cast) same for this one (Mads Mikkelsen is breaking me... in a freakin Star Wars movie... 😭 genius actor, overall a brilliant cast again) but how is this movie a classic????????????????????????????? @Lilja K @Cult Icon It's hilariously bad. Clunky dialogs, TERRIBLE stiff acting from every single cast member, everyone looks and moves so weirdly confused like they had no clue what the hell they're actually doing. I mean I'm aware this movie was made in the 70s (different time, different possibilities, even though technically the movie looks just fine to me for past standards) but everything else was just painful to watch (kids who are threatened with beatings if they don't obey, women with barely any dialogue standing to cook in the kitchen, the "hero" constantly mocking Leia for her "dumb female" lead), I'm still amazed I made it somehow through the whole mess 🤣 And the Star Wars fanboys mourning the times when this franchise was... less female driven but bullying a little boy for years for not just "ruining" the Anakin character but the beloved universe when every failure on this once again comes to sloppy writing and directing from George Lucas? This fandom deserves every single woke movement ever made imo Sorry Jake for a ruined childhood.

@Lilja K ‘The Apprentice' Producers Absolutely Want to Release Trump Film Before the Election Another update on Ali Abassi’s “The Apprentice.” It’s being reported that James Shani, who is one of the film’s producers, is leading a group to buy out Dan Snyder’s Kinematics stake in “The Apprentice”. They want to get rid of Snyder, who is blocking U.S. distribution, to release the film right before the 2024 election in November. According to insiders, the producers are offering Snyder $7M to settle on an agreement. Upon settlement, the producers would then be able to speed up the pending deal agreement they have with Tom Ortenberg’s Briarcliff Entertainment for “wide release before the election.” The film features a much-discussed scene where Trump rapes his former wife Ivana. Snyder wasn’t too thrilled about the scene. In May, Variety reported that Snyder, who is a friend of Trump’s, first saw a cut of the film in February and was absolutely furious. This didn’t stop the film from premiering at Cannes where it was met with, mostly, positive reviews. According to her 1993 autobiography “Lost Tycoon,” Ivana made the rape accusation in a divorce court statement, but later clarified her earlier words, noting that she did not mean them in “a literal or criminal sense,” adding she “just felt violated” at the time. Almost every Hollywood studio declined to distribute “The Apprentice,” but when producers finally thought they had secured an interested U.S. partner, Briarcliff, Snyder vetoed the deal. Whether Snyder agrees to this deal remains to be seen, but it is of the utmost importance for these ‘Apprentice’ producers to have the film shown right before the 2024 election …

If this movie is going to bomb than Hollywood is in really serious trouble. @Lilja K Box Office: ‘Twisters' Might Be in Trouble — Tracking at $35M-$40M Opening I’m looking at the latest tracking numbers for “Twisters” and they don’t look good. Right now, Lee Isaac-Chung’s film is set to open anywhere between $35M-$40M next weekend. The budget for this one is said be around $200M. Of course, we’re still three days away from Thursday previews, and Universal’s marketing machine will go on overdrive these next 72 hours. Stay tuned.

But Trump is one of those rich, priviliged dudes... I don't understand at all why any voters have trust in this man making things better? I mean is he making things better for you guys in the US? All we hear in europe is that this man is a crazy dangerous racist misogynistic criminal.

What are they doing?

Most likely, yes. That's why I wondered what all the others (moderates, centrists, minorities, immigrants, natives etc) will vote in this kind of situation where you don't really have a "good" choice. Must be hella frustrating.

Are there left ones? I have the feeling everything is "extreme" these days especially when it comes to politics no matter "right" or "left" and those in between don't know what to do or who to vote so they won't vote at all what is another way to doom the world. Just result into the extremism with doing absolutely nothing. Also a form of extreme imo.

They probably never considered to pay for one lol https://people.com/hollywood-walk-of-fame-rules-you-didnt-know-8431908

One of my faves of Blake @Lilja K She's so gorgeous, cool, effortless and tre chic in this movie I love it Kinda curious about part 2 😚

Oh lord @Lilja K Can't decide if I'm glad or sad that's not gonna happen ever 😅 Nick Cave Calls His ‘Gladiator II' Script A “Masterpiece" — Involved Time Portals, Christ and Vietnam War It’s been dubbed “The Strangest Sequel Never Made.” Before Ridley Scott set his template for “Gladiator II,” he had a whole other story in mind, one involving Russell Crowe’s Maximus coming back from the dead. "I know how to bring him back," Scott had told ME Movies in 2017. "I was having this talk with the studio — Whether it will happen I don’t know. Gladiator was 2000, so Russell’s changed a little bit. He’s doing something right now but I’m trying to get him back down here." Scott had hired musician Nick Cave to write the script, one which would have had Maximus using the "portal of a dying warrior" to come back from the dead. Cave’s script was written in and around 2006 and sat on the DreamWorks shelf for close to 10 years. Crowe was also onboard to return for the sequel, in fact he was the one who contacted Cave to write the script. The singer detailed his script, titled “Christ Killer,” on a recent WTF podcast episode: “(Crowe) rang me up and asked if I wanted to write ‘Gladiator 2,” he said. “For someone who had only written one film script, it was quite an ask. ‘Hey Russell, didn’t you die in ‘Gladiator 1′?’ ‘Yeah, you sort that out.’ So, he goes down to purgatory and is sent down by the gods, who are dying in heaven because there’s this one god, there’s this Christ character, down on Earth who is gaining popularity and so the many gods are dying so they send Gladiator back to kill Christ and his followers.” “I wanted to call it ‘Christ Killer’ and in the end you find out that the main guy was his son, so he has to kill his son and he was tricked by the gods. He becomes this eternal warrior, and it ends with this 20-minute war scene which follows all the wars in history, right up to Vietnam and all that sort of stuff and it was wild. It was a stone cold masterpiece. I enjoyed writing it very much because I knew on every level that it was never going to get made. Let’s call it a popcorn dropper.” That’s right, In Nick Cave’s hands, “Gladiator II” would have involved a Christ-like man-god who “goes down to purgatory and is sent back by the gods”. According to Cave, the project came to halt after Crowe read the script, he reacted with a simple, “Don’t like it, mate.” If you’re more curious about “Gladiator II: Christ Killer,” it has been made available to read online. Even if the script had been greenlit this decade, Crowe would have needed to embark on a major physical transformation as he is currently, most definitely, not in the kind of shape he was 25 years ago.
