Bruh, if they keep doing this, Olympus Has Fallen's plot is gonna seem realistic

(Can we just get Morgan Freeman instead of whatever this dumpsterfire we got?)

I think you mean Civil War (2024).

You're going to have the war last year? That's certainly ambitious.

No, but I live in the Plex/Jellyfin world of unambiguously naming movies by adding the year of the release in parentheses.

That was low key a good movie... Although Kirsten Dunst is like my celebrity crush.

Even upside down I can see the appeal

Nuh uh, she’s my celebrity crush.

I liked that it specifically didn't choose a plot that mirrored any current events. It wasn't a conservative versus liberal thing, it wasn't a "south will rise again" thing.

I guess that depends on anyone's interpretation, it wasn't too on the nose, but imo the fact that it was "Ron" who played the president + they were racists against mexicans it can quite easily be interpreted as a stand-in for trump.

But I agree it wasn't trying to be preachy, just showing the horrific consequences of war, war on US Soil specifically
