You can still get away with some proxies. I used windscribe successfully
Not American Netflix.
I consider that a win for Canuckistan.
Liam Neeson needs to stop doing movies. His only role is the "Old Badass" type of guy and the only one who can consistently pull it off (also wearing thin though) is Denzel. GTFO of here with that shit Liam.. go drink some Metamucil and sleep for 12 hours a day.

Yeah, on my short list...if I can find it....
Here is a review which made me decide to watch it (once Netflix streams it).
"How much air time do we need to give to co-conspirators? That’s a rhetorical question. The answer is exactly as much drives up the ratings-share to increase the price of their ad time. I’m not preaching anything new here. The path goes straight from that to Reality Television. And from there to social media.
Do you remember the scene in I, Tonya where Jeff Gillooly walks up to the window to see the press clearing out of his front lawn? Do you remember what was on the television screen? O.J. Simpson’s freeway chase spectacular. Remember all that coverage? One of the defense attorneys who got a bit of coverage through that months-long spectacle was Robert Kardashian. The through line from the news as reality entertainment, to reality tv, to social media is right there. Good on Kim K. for finding a way to monetize that for herself."
Could be interesting.

At least stop doing movies that involve firearms, given his views on private ownership.
Brawl in Cell Block 99 (Vince Vaughn) was interesting. If you liked Shot Caller check it out on Amazon (some of the bashed in prosthetics heads could have used some work though lol).
I thought it was a misfire - though did do some interesting things. I highly recommend the director's other feature (at least the one I saw) 'Bone Tomahawk.' A lot of great thing about that movie but my favorite is the absolutely incredible performance of the 'town drunk' character. He took a normal western throwaway role and made it the core of the movie.

Went and saw 12 Strong earlier today. In my opinion, it was really good.

That's disappointing to read. By default I just assume that most actors/entertainers differ from me on social issues, but I did some Googling and agree that it is pretty fucked up for a man who has made his living off of violent movies, then mocks the very same men (mostly) who give their money to watch his movies.

Going to try to see 12 Strong this weekend. Reviews are not real positive so far, but I take reviews with a grain of salt. Anybody seen it yet?

No, but I just went and did a quick Google. If NBC hate's it for the reason they state, I'll probably love it.

Huh. He had me at bondage and lost me at feminism. I'm sure he's a load of fun at parties.

This guy probably had his review written before he even watched the movie
