Den of Thieves 2: Pantera 2025
The first great film of the second Trump presidency. Where Den of Thieves was mad as hell, not gonna take it anymore, and looking to lash out at any domestic Other in sight, Den of Thieves 2 recognizes international capital networks as immutable and something to push against only with a certain stoicism. All one might do is get their slice of the pie and get fucked up with their friends. What else is to be done? The scene where Big Nick and Donny do molly and get schwarma and bro out was genuinely awe inspiring, taking me back to my greatest times abroad.
Solid 8/10.

Not sure when it happened, though it certainly emerged as a symptom of Marvel slop, but it seemings like everything these days need not take itself seriously and be full of scenes that go on 50% too long.

Moderately comforting in that it seems to predict the rise of fascism will be solved via officers coup. Lord willing.
5/10.

Why is Megalopolis so awful?
Let's look at one scene, occurring ~2 hours in. Audrey Plaza, Jon Voight and Shia…

Black Panther 2018
Hegel remarks somewhere that all Star Wars: The Phantom Menaces appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as farce, the second time as slop.
