It had terrible promotional materials because it is a very weird movie and they didn't know what to do with it. Look at this garbage, unrepresentative poster: but i want to see that one and will one day will |

I have asked him like six times and he refuses to answer and i assume you bought it, anders. insanity Why do you dislike it so much? see my reply to mickey re fredric jameson. I simultaneously have never seen this movie and have seen this movie countless times. I see where you are coming from with this, but I don’t agree with that approach, not seeing the movie, and having a stromg opinion on it. Not saying you have to see it, or at all that you have to like it. i’m exaggerating a bit. i don’t have a particularly strong opinion about this movie — how could i — beyond buying it sight unseen. |

Going to watch the final hour tomorrow just to see how it ends but so far this feels like a comic book movie for people with MFA degrees. This was terrible. One of the most tedious, juvenile movies I've seen in years. when I first read fred introduce the presupposition, "texts come before us as the always-already-read", it felt like a godly dispensation from seeing movies exactly like this. I think overall Fred is correct and there's a way in which the previous reception of this movie (and how it fits into the matrix of what kinds of movies can be made) telegraphed its overall form, but there's also something to be said for witnessing first hand the way a certain (maybe middle class?) psychic reality is served up to its primary audience here, and how it negotiates material limitations to that reality. It was a terrible viewing experience but it is interesting. of course im down with this 100 |

Have you seen the American TV program Yellowstone? you’re a much better observer of the culture than i am. seems like shows like Yellowstone and Billions are much purer expressions of the dominant us culture, but you have to have the stomach for them. cc never gives me indigestion |

they are much better objects of inquiry for the almost sociological method being advanced by your post, or to the extent it’s formal, a method that accounts for the aesthetic possibilities by way of our historical moment |

I've mostly lost interest in talking about movies. A recent development. I don't know what happened. I used to be obsessed. I'm still surprised by how many movies I actually like, though. Even though most of it seems pretty sinister to me. |
