another maniacal Armond White review, this time "Fahrenheit 9/11"

also, girls like dinosaurs too.

obsessed vs interested

i'm not crazy about you, either

it would be a badge of pride, if i gave a fraction of a shit

a dinosaur shit.

jeez that Armond quote is some wacky misogynist shit

although frankly there's a certain pathos in observing your scorn for anyone who doesn't have the same limited habits of mind

xpost

yeah the title of this thread (the 1st half anyway) is of enduring relevance

actually my previous post applies to both morbs and armond, so i'm on topic despite myself

previous previous i mean

l-r Goldblum, amateurist

l-r Morbius, everything in the entire world

l-r: armond, voluptuous trapazoids

l-r:Armond, what he thinks lesbians are into

l-r: Goldblum, people who think Armond can possibly be represented by Goldblum

I don't mind if you don't like my manners, I don't like them myself. They are pretty bad. I grieve over them on long winter evenings

You're not going to go around poking at this thread and threatening to leave it again, are you?

dinosaurs are awesome, what kind of miserable life-hating person doesn't like dinosaurs

TBQH i'm not sure what morbius likes, other than a few old films and steven spielberg.

and ILX, though he'd never admit it

btw i'm kind of waiting for some GOP candidate to attack "jurassic world" b/c evolution

nothing in the reviews makes it sound like this franchise has evolved

chris pratt has bigger biceps than jeff goldblum

well, there are members of the audience who don't believe in evolution so it's appropriate.

The hero of the movie says, in reference to 65 million years of evolution, "maybe progress should lose for once."

*cough* gay marriage *cough*

dr morbius is...

tenacious

saluting Armond for recognizing George O'Brien as the reigning himbo of the late silents.

george o'brien was stunning. and he had a great, goofy smile.

(and he grew into a great character actor, too, which i imagine those who knew his work in the 1920s would never have guessed he would.)

So, is name-checking Matthew Rush in his reviews Armond's new thing?

I'm on board.

Armond you crazy dick-sucker you.

Spielberg has lost the native all-American exuberance that made the atomic-bomb/refrigerator exploit in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull so wondrous. Here, he mocks “duck-and-cover” Cold War training films, the public-school Pledge of Allegiance, and even Donovan’s “Big American breakfast” as part of obsolete cultural foolishness that deserves noir cynicism. This is pop art at its most disingenuous.

And armond knows disingenuous

Funnier still is how Armond, who frequently decries Tarantino's sadism, delights in watching (coded) Occupy-ers being mutilated and eaten.

Missed that gem.

should I?

Spotlight’s crusading journalists and activists are played by a cast of actors you can no longer trust: Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Mark Ruffalo, and Stanley Tucci carry disingenuousness in their make-up kits, each one dragging the shadows of so many earlier untenable movies.

(No wonder critics derided McCarthy’s Adam Sandler film, The Cobbler; its vision of multi-ethnic connection was as wondrous and unillusioned as Brooklyn.)

His criticisms of movies about crusading journalists - and the way movies turn victims into a faceless mass, unless one of them has a cute kid - are valid.

not really. name some.

Absence of Malice? and that crappy remake set in DC w/ Russell Crowe

forget the first one, Paul Newman is the oppressed victim in that

State of Play?

right

Armond on the 12 best gay flicks of 2015

I've seen Eastern Boys and Girlhood. Have Tangerine on hold at the library. Anyone care to endorse or warn me away from any of the others?
