Thanks. Looks to be some good stuff in there.

they will list whatever franchise films they were in first , outside of that they won’t mention much.
Think about it this way: if Duvall had never made (or got cast) in the Godfather movies , there’d still be a shit ton of significant and important movies he was in.
Can you say the same for most of these actors under 45 or so?
I even went and looked at his IMDB just now. Take out the Guardians of the Galaxy (and Marvel stuff) and the Jurassic films in his filmography. What are you left with that is noteworthy and significant?
It’s just mind boggling how tied into franchise films these actors are now days.
I did laugh because the first google thing that came out on Pratt was some bomb film that he made that is getting released on video.
If I ask my friends who Chris Pratt is they will have no idea. If I show them a picture they will probably have seen his face somewhere. I suppose that's where it will be at. Known faces with unknown names.
I forgot about AI. That hasn't really begun yet despite being very advanced. They will totally start to resurrect old actors from the past once the technology becomes good enough. Make another Rambo with a young Stallone. Bring back Cary Grant. Bet on it. Imagine the crossover movies they could do with that.

They called him "Godfather actor" in our paper, as if people don't know who Robert Duvall was.

Funny how they decide which stories are big enough to get reported in Europe. Apparently this was considered not important enough.
Every "right wing" incident however, we hear about it.

Could you be a bit more hyperbolic? He was not "shot in the back". He was shot while having a wrestling match with officers. He was carrying a loaded gun. Completely reasonable to assume there might be other weapons on his body. If he decided to act like a civilized human being none of this would have happened.
And quoting the Constitution is...funny when these people are trying to prevent lawful orders from being carried out.
#6 Re: Guns N' Roses » Atlas & Nothing the last of reworked songs - CD era comes to a close » 4 weeks ago
Well Slash is obviously holding back about the number of songs here. They did Monsters and possibly others. For whatever reason they have decided to stop at Nothing and Atlas. Or that's what he heard and he doesn't really know what will happen.
They've milked this "album" thing now for what, 4 years? And then when we finally get this album of songs they have already released they will milk that too. These guys will be dead before we see new material.
#7 Re: Guns N' Roses » Atlas & Nothing the last of reworked songs - CD era comes to a close » 4 weeks ago
So that's confirmation there are no more songs with vocals, or at least that they want to release.
Funny how the "new album" thing is something they have been planning for years but not a single step taken towards making that album. Does Axl plan to do it at 80 years old?

Where is Neville Chamberlain when you need him?
Imagine a President threatening other countries because they did not give him the peace prize! I'm thinking not even Caligula would do that.

When Trump ran the tariff game last year all he really wanted was some rate adjustments so he could tell everybody in America he had earned billions and trillions. But with Greenland he is committing hard. Basically threatening to cripple the economy of Europe unless they give him Greenland within a set date. Hitler style.
Trump likes easy strikes so when you hear him say that Denmark only got a few dog sleds protecting the island, you know where his mind his. Quick, easy occupation. In and out. Maybe come to some terms with Denmark after the fact to sweeten the deal. Obviously nobody is going to war over a big piece of ice, so he feels safe making these aggressive moves. Perhaps he's got lawyers telling him that an attack on Greenland would not be an attack on NATO since it is a semi autonomous territory. He's got something cooking though.

Cool story bro. But here in America we have brown citizens as well. They are being stopped for just being brown cause there's a quota to be made. I've been stopped in my youth by law numerous times. Had my share of problems too. Didn't make me think oh yeah fuck those guys who are getting stopped just for their appearance like I was. Crazy logic. Especially since these aren't check points which would warrant some checking. This is walking down the street for groceries. Fuck outta here with that mindset.
And we don't? Brown citizens deserve special protection or something? I get shit for my skin color all the time. Gender too. I'm not going around complaining about it. If these people can't handle showing an ID or something then that is their problem. I know exactly what the deal would be if the shoe was on the other foot. This is literally a non issue. Every citizen in a modern country has to show papers at some time or the other.
