Hollywood Makes History Again!!!!

The Academy of Motion Pictures & Marxist Propaganda nominated a man as best "actress." This is apparently a guy calling himself "Sofia" Garcon, who appears in a (?) Spanish musical called Emilia Perez or something. Never heard of it. No one will see it. Great movie to give 13 nominations to to Shock the Squares.

Apparently, the Oscar nominations came out, and I only heard of them because some guy pretending to be a chick got nominated as a chick because take that and we’ll show you squares.

It is remarkable how Hollywood has chosen to commit woke suicide.

We're going to break out of their monopoly on content. We're gonna make our own stuff and there’s nothing they can do about it.

Below is a clip from this incredible movie, so amazing that the Academy showered it with thirteen Oscar nominations.

You may think this is some kind of crude MAGA Cheapfake Parody, but this is the real deal Hollyfield.

Squid Game seems to have woken Netflix up to the fact that Korean cinema is producing a LOT of stuff they can buy the rights for cheap and slap subtitles on at a tiny fraction of the cost of Hollywoke series.

I was wrong, that was MUCH worse than I was expecting. They have people with singing roles that can't even f*cking sing. Worse, they have songwriters that must have majored in Social Work instead of History of Lesbian Dance. (At least those students listened to some type of music while wasting much of their seven years as an undergrad.)

65 See, in terms of not changing, you can give Hollywood a pass on movies coming out now because it takes years to put out a film. If anything changes, it won't show up on the screen for at least a year or two.

But the Oscar nominations? All of them were done months after Trump was elected and the entire culture was seen to have shifted. This was done knowing that things are not what they believed. This was done knowing that they are not, in fact, the victors, the majority, and "on the right side of history."

So, I'm rooting for the dick holder to win as many women's categories as possible at the Oscars. It cheapens every single previous winner, and those in the foreseeable future.

My absolute favorite, however, is dick holders winning "Female of the Year." It's like a loud assed slap in the face of every imbecilic feminist who have been spewing their "men and women are exactly equal" over the last six decades.

TBF, the award just sat there for two years waiting for them to finish.

Yeah they held off any awards until the trilogy was finished knowing it was basically one long film. So while the Return of the King was hardly the finest movie in the three, it was just the finish of the story.

I mean, in the clip, they rip through the list of surgeries required, which is extensive.

Though, Hollywood is so self-unaware, they probably do think it's an "edgy" exploration of the problems encountered without realizing the movie also serves as an expose.

I'm open to negotiations Hollywood. And look, at least initially, I'm willing to settle for $10 per movie I don't go and see. That $10 will ensure my cooperation in not seeing your movie. You will easily achieve your goal of making it so I do not see anything you make.

196 J6 Prisoner Jeremy Brown has gone missing :

https://tinyurl.com/3vhfu2au

Jan 6 defendant Jeremy Brown called his girlfriend at 4:16am to tell her he was being moved. No one has heard from him since - so as of now, his attorney and his family has no idea where he is. His cell mate, another J6 defendant, was also told he was being moved. The White House needs to order the Marshalls to release these people now.

Jeremy’s mom, Lisa, (in the blue sweater) wants her son back. He served his country with distinction & refused to snitch on the Oathkeepers. This man was targeted, subject to illegal search & seizure & punished for exposing the two federal agents who tried to recruit him.

The film version of "Evita" was solid. Madonna was too old for the part, but her voice was arguably better than ever, since she finally had formal instruction.

270 Exhibit A: Paint Your Wagon (although that one's a trifle over 50 years old). Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood: to borrow Leo Kottke's description of his own voice: "like geese farts on a muggy day".

Lee Marvin they didn't try to make a great singer, his grumpy grumbling croak works perfectly for the intro song. Eastwood on the other hand... Even without the songs, Paint Your Wagon is an odd, goofy movie. For some reason it did pretty well though. I guess I'd buy tickets to see an Eastwood/Marvin western.

He doesn't get ass kissing because he hasn't had to do it and doesn't understand anything but whining and demanding things. Trump just shut down his pet project with the Gun Violence Office and he's saying, Well OK, maybe he has a better idea, let's just wait and see.

"Effective Jan. 24, 2025, OCR [Office of Civil Rights] has rescinded all department guidance issued under the theory that a school district’s removal of age-inappropriate books from its libraries may violate civil rights laws."

"OCR is also dismissing six additional pending allegations of book banning and will no longer employ a “book ban coordinator” to investigate local school districts and parents working to protect students from obscene content."

287 It is with regret that Orlok must mention that early modern European theater featured almost exclusively young boys (up to adolescence) in all female roles. By the Seventeenth century, women were actually cast in feminine roles, and it was seen by all as a triumph and vindication of women. As indeed it was.

And now feminine roles are again being relegated to men? Orlok is a simple Nosferatu living in a castle in the inner reaches of the Carpathians, but perhaps he may be forgiven for saying that this does not represent progress. Orlok would go even further in pronouncing this as an active form of misogyny, one that reduces women to a set of parts that can be faked and appropriated by anyone. I may be an abomination forced to sup on human blood for my sustenance, but Orlok would never countenance such a foul crime against nature as that depicted in the clip above.

Gavin was there in his manly pose, with his hands in his back pockets finding his ass. Tried to out shake hands Trump and lost, from what I saw. Then kissed Lady Melania who wanted to slap him upside the head, but knew cameras were on her. President Trump, walking ahead, turned around and laser glared at Gavin to get his greasy paws off his wife.

I am sure he will blister the air with what Gavin did wrong, which was a hell of a lot in not raking the leaves, as Daddy Trump said in 2019, and not having reservoirs. It ain't over by a long shot. But maybe the fires will go out just having him on the ground.

No, but it was better than it is now. You can see the decline in the various steps they followed, and it was in part held back by the morality of society as a whole.

It starts out with serial marriage/affairs, but it's mostly adults banging other adults.

Then the guys go for the teenage girls.

And then the gay stuff starts to creep in, but even within Hollywood that stuff is sick and it has to be kept under wraps. But it keeps going, and going, and now kid sex, gay kid sex, but everyone has to cover it up.

And then they stop covering it up, thinking it was okay and find that nope, everyone is horrified (Roman Polanski).

But it just keeps going, and hushed stories of boy rape and now it's all pretty much a decadent slush of demonic depravity.

Which, in the Year of Our Lord 2025, was cleansed by fire.

She contacts the Health coordinator. He contacts the Licensing Agent. He contacts the legal department. He contacts Craft Services. They contact publicity. They contact the Producer.

yeah, I hope Trump will play hardball with these assholes that spent years sending their drug cartels and other foreign terrorists into the USA.

He doesn't get ass kissing because he hasn't had to do it and doesn't understand anything but whining and demanding things.

Trump just shut down his pet project with the Gun Violence Office and he's saying, Well OK, maybe he has a better idea, let's just wait and see.

343 The thing I have noticed is: they like epic because it is broad and they think it gives them more leeway and people are impressed by the spectacle. The better movies have been more ground level or personal.

Its the same thing that has been the death of comedies. They are entirely focused on the international market. Some stuff doesn't easily carry over to other cultures or languages, like satire or comedy. But big epic stuff, flashy special effects, snarky comments etc, that does. So its the death of a large array of different kinds of movies.

Take Wicked, its a huge hit in the USA, people were predicting a billion dollar film. Overseas, its a fail. Turns out people in South Africa and Brazil don't give a crap about the Wicked Witch from Oz' backstory in song.

Maybe this is actually well thought out. You know the frontier con artists, the Duke and the Dauphin, from Huckleberry Finn?

One of their cons was putting on a stage show as worthless and terrible as they could make it: The Royal Nonesuch. A naked, painted man pranced around on all fours for a couple of minutes, then it was show over, curtain down.

Their calculation was, advertise that the show would run for three days. Day 1: Rubes are humiliated at being cheated, but tell everyone it was great so they won't be the only ones cheated. Day 2: Second cohort of rubes are cheated. Day 3: The whole town attends to tar and feather the con artists, but they've already skipped town.

Three days of ticket sales to watch a POS, and third day was the biggest!

Maybe with a "The Emperor's New Clothes" angle too.

We were warned.

"What We Do in the Shadows" is a far superior production and has given Orlok many a giggle. I especially enjoy the Emotional Energy Vampire, and the method they use to avoid paying bills.

412 The Left may have to talk up Trump now and his "political talent" lest the country get the idea that Democrat policies have failed and Republican ones are appetizing.

They know Trump isn't a direct threat anymore and one day he'll be gone and they can work to demonize his next opponent as Hitler.

Citizens of Guatemala and Mexico, by IRS policy, are allowed to write off dependents back in their own countries on tax returns. This might be one of the reasons Guatemala is willing to participate in repatriation. I think they also had a lot of problems being the caravans' route too.

Yes, exactly. You get it - after some six hundred years of (relative) normality, now one must deal with this. Orlok has tried the "I identify as a cisgender heteronormative Undead Romanian, but nobody is really buying that. You would think that after producing Falco, Austria would have a sense of humility, if not shame, but there you are. "Alles Klar, Herr Commissar" and "Rock Me Amadeus" dominate the airwaves here.

I love it. And I am easily among the most productive members of my team, so I don't feel one bit bad about bathroom and coffee breaks and an occasional five minutes over on lunch. I work almost twice the number of accounts that my co-worker does.

We couldn't work onsite if we wanted to, though. Our original employer contracted our department out to another company, who then hired me. The hospital won't provide space for us to work onsite.

The old manila envelope bit goes back to, I believe "Advise and Consent" the old Allen Drury creaker about some gay senator.

The blackmail premise falls apart when you consider if it's a one-time deal or continuous control of voting choices.

The CEO of Chicago Public Schools went on MSNBC three hours ago and whined about how ICE agents showed up to a Chicago school -- except they turned out to be Secret Service.

Seems like Katy Tur should have checked with ICE before doing this segment.

One of the hottest anime of the past two seasons was based on a webtoon (South Korean) based on a web novel (also South Korean). So if Hollywood wants to be relevant again, they don't have just one but TWO Asian non-woketard nations to overcome.

459 Conservatives have been saying for decades that they'll break the leftist monopoly in movies and haven't done so. The Dailywire isn't a threat to anyone and we should just be real about that. What is more likely is that foreign films will supplant our movies and or decades to YouTube and Tik Tok videos shorten the attention span of enough people that the 90 minute feature film just dies out entirely.
