You cry racism while supporting programs that benefit you because of your race. Just putting your hypocrisy on record.

You called someone a racist for not supporting fellowships that exclude people by race.

RICHARD JEWELL is funny and thoughtful. Journalists are unethical slime, and Hollywood used to have a long history of acknowledging that.
Eastwood’s β€˜Richard Jewell’ came out during Trump 45 and at the time MSM Libs were very insistent that journalists and FBI agents must always be portrayed as heroes so they downplayed how good this movie is (it’s very good).

Still so stupid Amanda Seyfried barely placed anywhere last season for The Testament of Ann Lee. Maybe the Oscars will recognize her for something else soon.

ABC News (part of Disney-Hulu-ESPN-20th Century Fox) accidentally promotes a neo-Nazi in their feel-good story about a guy who got his limbs blown off. But the mainstream press is worried that Bari Weiss won’t do her due diligence.
Ukrainian veteran Ruslan Knysh is just 20 years old. Still, he continues to defend his country after losing both arms and legs in a Russian drone attack. Today, he is training to become a drone pilot by using a customized chin controller to operate unmanned ground vehicles. abcnews.link/H2WKOYt

Woke 1 was crazy.

I don’t claim to know what happened, but pushing documentaries out as fast as possible before a trial seems bad if you care about due process.

If she were an unknown actress, it’d be no big deal. But we all know what Jennifer Lawrence looks like, and this doppelganger does not look like Jennifer Lawrence.

The only thing progressive Hollywood likes more than moralizing is money. Ironically, films like TAR exist, and someone like Lawrence could lend her name to smaller indies that struggle to find financing. But the number of roles is much smaller, as is the paycheck.

Selection bias. Horror is the easiest thing to get financed without big attachments, so there are more high-profile, low-budget indie horror than other genres.

This is a brutal industry, and clutching onto a simulacrum of youth can determine whether or not you book an interesting role. But since Lawrence is putting this out there, I have to say that her new face looks oddly like Taissa Farmiga.
Jennifer Lawrence gets real about her past plastic surgery and future facelift plans: β€˜I want to be a sexy mom’ trib.al/CFSHMOA

He was wrong and stupid, but this isn't worth a week of news. Pallywood Reporter should consider reporting on the actual industry.

When you have a Palestine flag, "fuck ICE," and claim to be from Weimar America, you are already indistinguishable from parody.

HILARIOUS: Justine Bateman BLASTS filmmakers for making AWFUL films because they’re catering to the WOKE MOB, dropping an amazing example: β€œFilm festivals have done this too, where they'll take a film that is where the filmmaker is a one-legged albino from Alaska with two g*y mommies, and that checks those boxes, but the film's not very good.”

Your OP says nothing about the Dem Party. Your OP conclusion is about Israel’s relationship with the US. That’s fine. But if people need to own their positions, then pro-Palestinian Americans must accept their decolonial leftism convinced idiot Palestinians to die for nothing.

It’s an amusing movie, but it mostly focuses on the ideology behind this stuff. I want a full courageous exposΓ© on the Mengele-style abomination that is going on here.

This is a medical scandal of historic proportions, and it’s a crime that the only notable documentary we have is a goofy Matt Walsh talking head film. Doc filmmakers are cowards.
This is your friendly reminder that taking skin from a woman’s thigh to create a non-functional tube of skin that is supposed to resemble male genitalia is not healthcare.
