Considering the revisionist alt-history at the center of JFK - Inglorious Basterds, Django, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. B&W flashback scenes also found in Memento. Atonement comes to mind but can’t describe why atm.

I’m thankful to be able to find Saison Du Pont (4pk cans now!) in just about any decent urban grocery. But what simple offerings for such a diverse, wide ranging style.

There’s some scenes of main character traveling to 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s NYC from his fantasy medieval home in Stephen King’s Dark Tower series book two. The character’s wonder at modern things is amusing and convincing

The gruff Batman voice remains one of the weakest link of all these films. If Clark Kent can take off his glasses and not do anything else to change his appearance except the Superman suit, Bruce doesn’t have to change his voice so people don’t recognize him in the Batman suit/mask.

Decent amount of retcon about his poor experience on this movie. He’s at his best when he’s doing interesting/fun character work, not leading imo.

Their aggressiveness in protecting Trump, the procedural irregularities that Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson have repeatedly highlighted, *and their refusal even to try to explain themselves* makes the majority look like the Republican National Committee, judicial branch.

It seems clear (to me, anyway) that it has nothing to do with cost saving and is fundamentally ideological: they don't believe in serving the public good, and therefore have only contempt for public servants and see the federal government only as a tool for persecution and personal enrichment.

Why would you report on the bill with this approach? A poll is just a measure of what message reached what people. Reporters at the N&O can objectively read the bill and report to its readers whether or not it benefits the wealthy at the expense of the poor (it does). It’s not subjective gray area.
