Saw The Running Man 2025. I’ve seen the Arnie movie, never read the book.
First off, add it to the pile of inexplicably yet another movie that speaks well to the Political Moment of Now. Powell’s a powerhouse, Brolin and Domingo chewing the scenery like they owed each other money.

The subsidies were lost the moment voters decided Harris didn't earn their votes.
They by extension decided those subsidies weren't worth saving.
Because they were always set to expire on January 1, 2026. This was a hail mary by Dems to save voters from themselves.
Again.

Anyways, Predator: Badlands.
Story's pretty simple (stoic hunter-warrior discovers compassion and companionship is Awesome, Actually), but manages to make it sing through the lens of Predator's visceral brutality that still manages to shine through in spite of the PG13 rating. Check it out!

Yeah? If that's the case, why hasn't there been a news leak saying that's what happened, versus when we did have a leak back in March of him actually doing that for the budget framework?
If you believe it was just 8 senators I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. This was a Schumer operation.

Gonna generally remind people who are thumping “Primary, NOW!”: you can’t be reliant on just pressuring moderate Dem politicians. You need to also pressure moderate voters as well. Don’t pretend they aren’t there.

The pro-Palestine group Within Our Lifetime has already decided that Zohran Mamdani has sold out the pro-Palestine cause... by condemning swastikas drawn on a Jewish day school in Brooklyn. forward.com/culture/7822...
Mamdani's first statement on antisemitism as mayor-elect got some weird pushback
After someone spraypainted a swastika on a yeshiva, Zohran Mamdani condemned antisemitism. Somehow, this generated conspiracy theories.

Still, would caution people to not assume what Mamdani achieved to be reproduceable everywhere else. It only happened ‘cause the other candidates were just that terrible, and NYers were already fed up with corrupt centrist Dems.
AKA: don’t assume a DemSoc Texas governor by 2026/28 is inevitable.

Tron: Ares is…eh?
In the moment, and putting the Leto-ness aside, it’s a fun sci-fi blockbuster that I enjoyed watching.
It’s thinking on it afterwards that you run into issues. Namely that its story is unnecessary.

Oh, from a week ago, saw Good Boy.
Currently in the running of my favorite movie of 2025. Not just 'cause cute dog, but just being visual storytelling at its purest.
And while no, the dog does not die, the ending is still one of the most emotionally devastating things out there.

Today, saw Roofman. As weird as it is to say, it’s the coziest movie I’ve seen this year. An escaped prisoner, yeah, but it’s ultimately a story about a guy trying to pick between freedom or the desire to live. Tatum’s still got it with his himbo charm, but the rest of the supporting cast is great.

The Rebellion carried out assassinations and other very dirty acts throughout the Galactic Civil War. Rebellions are not very good looking when you actually start to look at them.

I forget where I read it, but the Rebellion recruited a whole bunch of people of extremely questionable background. People who legitimately committed crimes like murder, kidnapping, and whatnot as soldiers.
…to demand change. Hence the accelerationism.
Incidentally, it’s becoming a red-flag for me if an online far-leftist really really likes Andor, but only for the “banality of evil under fascism” parts, but completely ignores the whole “so the Rebellion did some Fucked Shit to get to where they are”

Ok, finally saw One Battle After Another...yeah I can see why the American far-right and far-left are both pissed off at this movie simultaneously, lol.
Still, if it's provoking that kind of reaction, I'd say it's own political theme is a huge success. Worth checking out for that.
