Wait, doesn't Shabbat start on Friday right after payday?😁

It really depends on when work wraps up and what time of year we're talking about... though, honestly, jalnuški can be secular too.

Keith James812 said:Oh, please... though I think I see where my logic tripped up. Did you ever breastfeed? No, you didn't, right?😁

Khm... actually, let me charge a fee for these instructions... or rather, let me set one specific condition involving olives, knives, polygamy, and the island of Key West 😉...

Keith James812 said:Must be nice... my whole setup just completely fell apart😁 because I haven't had any discipline lately, and one even managed to slip away.. last time anyone saw him was somewhere down in Mississippi, and honestly, that's all I know about him.😁

I’ll give you a few pointers... interest-free. Over some olives.

Keith Martinez4 said:Listen, if it’s black and hairy, I’ve definitely laid eyes on it. Send me a DM if you actually want it back. 😁

Ahem... I'll send you a DM... it isn't exactly wise to be broadcasting my IP's physical description here in public... the enemy is always watching. 🥳

Keith James812 said:Hey shadowjackal88... how’s everything going? How's the job treating you? Are those people of yours actually listening to you for once?😁

I can't complain... unlike most of these online boards out there...😁

Vuco said:Well, you're certainly the expert on that one. 😁

🤣

Does anyone actually see my IP address when I reply to a post 😁?

red?
Ray?
someone else?

Keith James812.

So, where on earth is the ban?

I don't deal in pork—it isn't kosher.

jadetinker85 said:Hey, what kind of logic are you using to group me and shadowjackal88 together while leaving iva1 out of it?

Hmm, criteria. Logic. 🤔 Perhaps it’s just the fact that when someone runs completely out of actual points to make, they immediately pivot to attacking the person instead. 🥳

shadowjackal88 said:Look, I get it. Romance is played out. It’s exhausted. Honestly? Who even cares anymore? If you want to sprinkle in any semblance of romance, it better be wrapped in something cynical—something biting and ironic. Anything else just leaves this cloying, sugary aftertaste in your mouth, and God forbid we deal with anything actually sweet. We crave the bitterness. That's our thing.
But listen, the important part is that the carnage hasn't been played out. When you see brains and guts splattered across a massive IMAX screen, there isn't any lingering sweetness left behind. Just the raw stuff.

wow... welcome back 😘 👋 🙂 👋

Gerald Barrett25 said:Look, my argument—that most Americans just don't have the stomach for movies that actually make you think—is a standard reality within the film industry. It’s a fact known by anyone who takes cinema seriously here in the States, and frankly, it's something the executives at major studios like Disney or Warner Bros. know all too well. That's precisely why the market splits into two distinct camps: the massive blockbusters and those more "European-style" indie films. Honestly, it might be worth doing a little reading on the subject; the data is out there if you actually care to look for it.

I'll give you that much 😉. But I have to wonder... what percentage of the general public actually enjoys "serious" cinema?

Gerald Barrett25 said:😁

Regarding my point—are you suggesting I'm wrong? 😉
Please enlighten me...

p.s. This thread is about political cinema, by the way.

Yes, I am saying you're wrong because what you're doing is just a massive generalization. The USA has roughly 330 million people, ranging from absolute idiots to some of the greatest intellectuals on the planet, all descended from folks who came from every single corner of the globe.

It’s true that there’s a certain slice of the population that's too lazy to actually think—people who want everything served up in bite-sized, black-and-white answers—but there is absolutely another side to this coin. At the end of the day, even "Bowling for Columbine" is an American film, just like countless other political movies out there. And let's be real, most of those various independent commissions and committees working toward a fairer distribution of power and global wealth? They're largely comprised of Americans, aren't they?

Gerald Barrett25 said:The way this movie ends... it really forces you to sit there and think. Because of that, it’s entirely possible that some Americans might not actually enjoy it. 😉

But whose film is it, anyway? Is it Swedish?

Don't go getting ahead of yourself😛.

Gerald Barrett25 said:But honestly, Toronto is wayyyy better. Like, out of any list of the top 10 movies, 8 of them were filmed right there in Toronto.

Because you guys are just our massive, low-cost colony.😁.

New York 😁.
