Saw "Civil War" last weekend as well. Had the same thoughts. If anything, it was a tad underwhelming based on the reviews I'd seen. Just seemed ... small(?) considering the background topic.

yeah agreed. I don't have any real complaints; nothing was bad about it. It was well made and had some really good scenes, but the overall story never really grabbed me.
oh I have like 4 or 5 I think. Glad to hear it stays fun for a while.
edit: Just lost with 20 seconds left ugh

Movie that came out earlier this year. Just hit HBO Max like 2/3 weeks ago. Follows a crew of journalists as they cover a US civil war in an alternate present day. Kirsten Dunst and the dude that played Pablo Escobar in Narcos are in it.

The movie was f***ing dumb. It felt like the same movie as the one on Netflix that was also a civil war plot when the families finally leave and see all the Teslas crashing into each other. Leave the world behind I think it was called.
Americans love this plot for some reason. Civil dissent, factions, it's like some keep wondering what if it happened again like it's a fun thought lol.

Could you imagine if a country killed journalists trying to tell the truth of what's going on so narratives aren't spun when the truth is hidden, etc. That'd be wild huh?
Imagine if a country did tha....oh wait.

oh, right I did see that. no he doesn't. The pinky just goes off screen and back on overlapping the ring finger in the shot.
I liked that one a lot. I haven't been let down by a Rachel Sennott movie yet. Bottoms and Shiva Baby are both great too. Though "I Used to be Funny" is just good overall, she's still really good in it.

oh yeah I keep getting more. It's got big "one more run" energy for sure.
yeah for sure. They made sure to keep politics pretty much out of it aside from a few "obviously that's bad" viewpoints like the president not giving up his power and blatant murderous racism.

I'd say that would have been a better point than it actually made. I feel like the movie had almost everybody try to treat the media folks well and openly accept their presence; it felt more about the media being cold and heartless or something I guess?

I only played one round by myself last night. Maybe the wife will have interest in the VS co-op tonight. Gotta start with zero upgrades!

I sort of got that from the movie, their intrusive behaviour with wanting to cover the news, etc, but in a war zone, its not uncommon to have reporters and press wanting to show the truth of what is going on, like when they roll up to the mass graves, etc. At times, it went both ways, showing how cold war is even when it's domestic against its own people and then it was about how desperate some were to make their mark in the press, like the young girl that even after Danes gets capped, just continues on anyway.

Lol you can't be for real mate, that must be the fattest index finger known to man. You can see the shift in the image on the finger as if it was manipulated or AI was used to create the image.oh, right I did see that. no he doesn't. The pinky just goes off screen and back on overlapping the ring finger in the shot.

Yea it'd also be bad if people who had dirt on former POTUS' and their spouse wound up dead from unnatural causes.
Oh wait...
