    I don’t know why they put tariffs on movies though.

    Surely movies are the one thing Americans export more of than they import.

    So they tariff them, we tariff theirs in response… American influence wanes around the globe.

    I mean, I’m not complaining, half of Hollywood seems to be using shitty AI to write dogshit scripts. It just makes no fucking sense.

      Maybe they dont want Hollywood to film movies in Canada or Mexico. Or maybe Trump is a child that does random stuff, who knows.

        I watched that last Captain America one, and at one point my wife just went “Why are they in a car? Both of these men can fly!”

        I knew it was going to be shit because Harrison Ford looked bored. Always a good barometer for any movie he’s been in the last 20 years or so. He just can’t hide it any more.

          I can’t even bring myself to hate watch these movies. I don’t care for Harrison ford, he’s so old he doesn’t care anymore. He looks bored in every movie.

        I took kids to Minecraft movie, one of literally just a few movie outings in the last decades as it’s so expensive yet shitty, and during the ~30 minutes of previews, I think there was one preview of many that wasn’t a sequel or remake, and all looked so cookie-cutter it was kind of disturbing.
